Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 867

I'm not exactly opposed to the idea of a relationship."

"How much older is he? He always looks so capable and mature."

Liora asked, completely lacking a conversational filter.

"He's ten years older than me,"

Mira answered honestly.

"What?! A ten-year age gap, and you still said yes?"

Liora practically screamed.

Her outburst drew several curious stares from the nearby waitstaff.

Celine smacked Liora's arm. "Keep your voice down."

This was exactly why Mira knew better than to trust Liora with classified information. The girl had a heart of gold, but zero tact and a glaring inability to keep a secret.

"Compared to guys my own age, I prefer someone who's mature and grounded,"

Mira explained.

"I like older men too,"

Celine chimed in.

Liora shrieked again.

"Academics have never been an issue for her,"

Celine sighed, lightly slapping Liora's shoulder.

"I love traveling. Honestly, what's the point of studying all day? Though it's definitely better when you have a hot guy to keep you company,"

Sienna drawled lazily.

She was the quintessential trust-fund brat, spending her days partying and blowing through cash. When she bombed her college entrance exams, her parents simply bought her way into a second-tier university.

Top-tier schools were too hard to bribe into, and they knew she didn't have the brains to keep up anyway.

"What are you talking about? Don't push your toxic lifestyle onto Mira,"
