Nicole and Julie were close enough that they could talk about everything.
Julie raised her eyebrows. "Who knows?”
"Then why'd you invest in him so much? Aren't you afraid of losing all your money?”
Julie curled up the corners of her lips lightly. "If I promote him, he can earn far more than what I invested in him. Also..."
She paused for a while. Her tone was somewhat cool. "I f I can hold him up high, I can also let him fall to his death.”
As soon as Nicole heard that, she understood.
"You don't have feelings for him?”
Julie laughed. "I do have some feelings for him, but interests are more important."
"Good point."
Once the two ladies looked at each other, there was no need to say anything more. They had a tacit understanding.
Kai still had high hopes then.
However, Nicole also felt some sympathy for Kai. With this trend, even if Julie and Kai were dating, Kai would be the passive one that would be bullied.
As Nicole was thinking this, Kai served them coffee and sat between the two ladies.
The two women were a little stunned. Kai smiled and said, "I just learned how to make coffee. You won't believe it until you see it with your own eyes."
Julie chuckled. "Then we’re really blessed to have this opportunity. Thanks, K."
Nicole laughed. Kai’s hypocritical attitude of trying to be servile yet lofty was just so degrading.
However, when she received Kai’s warning gaze, Nicole dared not show it.
Nicole propped her chin up with one hand and watched Kai make coffee with great interest along with Julie.
She thought, 'I'm such a good sister...'
Kai moved skillfully to make coffee for them according to their preferences.
Nicole liked more milk and less sugar, while Julie liked less milk and less sugar.
She had to admit that Kai’s hands with well-defined fingers were like works of art. His every move was very aesthetic.
Kai’s hands were indeed very ornamental.
