Chapter 1940
The three girls ridiculed and teased her.
Freya then asked, "Are you going to see Liam later tonight?”
“Nope. I'm going back to the dorm with you guys. | have to go home tomorrow," Caprice said.
Freya was surprised. "You came all the way to Westchester but you're not spending the night with Liam?”
She even teased Caprice with some lewd gestures.
Caprice was more embarrassed than before. "We're not that far yet."
Freya clicked her tongue. "| see Liam is a good boy huh."
Lana nodded in agreement.
Piper then asked, "What base are you guys on now? Other than kissing and holding hands, what else did you two do?" Caprice immediately thought of the steamy scene back at the low-gravity grassfield.
Her face blushed. She stammered out of embarrassment, "N-Nothing else.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"Caprice, you're stammering.”
"Why is your face red?”
"You're lying.”
The three of them pressured her to reveal the truth.
Caprice immediately fled the scene.
Her friends chased her and continued to tease her along the way.
The group of friends soon arrived at a nearby mall, which was crowded at this hour.
They then entered a highly-reviewed restaurant.
The second floor was fully booked but there were a few more tables left on the first floor.
Caprice and friends sat down at a table near the entrance before they ordered and chatted.
Halfway through dinner, another group of people came down from the second floor.
Caprice's table was facing the stairs, so she was able to spot them at first glance.
She was surprised by who she saw.
Her friends spotted her unusual reaction, so they too turned to the stairs.
Freya asked, "Caprice, what's wrong? You know them?”
Caprice nodded. "They are the employees at Moses’ startup."
As soon as her voice subsided, the group of people came close enough to spot her and they were also surprised. Caprice worked at the startup for a day before and although she was not close with them at all, she smiled at them politely.
A few of them smiled back before they left the restaurant.
After the group left, Moses and Kenneth came.
Moses seemed to have drunk a lot. His face was red and he had one arm over Kenneth’s shoulder. However, when he spotted Caprice, his eyes widened and somehow managed to regain some of his rationality. He pulled his arm off Kenneth's shoulder and then smiled at Caprice. "Hey Caprice, what a coincidence." Caprice smiled at him. "Hi Moses, you guys having a gathering here?”
Moses nodded.
“We just signed a huge contract with Carter Tech District, so we're celebrating here,” Kenneth added. Caprice smiled. "Oh, to celebrate? | see. Congratulations."
Moses glanced over at Lana, Freya, and Piper. "You guys are here for dinner as well?"
Caprice said, "Yeah."
Jonathan then said, "Moses, they are still eating. Let's give them some space."
Kenneth's gaze shifted. He echoed. "Yeah. You're drunk as well. Let's go."
Moses went silent momentarily before he looked at Caprice and said, "You guys have fun. See ya." 'See you around," Caprice said.
