Before he could think further, Kyle Kinston had already closed the car door and set the GPS to Drumbeat Village.
Tonight is the time of the Full Moon, and he knows very well that without Mabel by his side, the best solution is to return to the mansion and spend the night alone, as he had done in the past. It’s painful, but at least it’s the safest way.
However... the unease in his heart is so intense, so intense that he can’t ignore it.
Drumbeat Village... it seems like something different might happen there. If he doesn’t go, if he just leaves Mabel to find Daniel Harris, he might regret it for the rest of his life.
He can’t! He can’t let the entanglement between Mabel and Daniel Harris grow deeper. Whatever the connection is, he needs to sever it!
Kyle Kinston started the car, and it sped away, leaving Caleb and the Driver with bewildered expressions.
Alice Conley received a call from Dorian Howards while waiting for the bus. No matter how many times she refused him, Dorian could always laugh it off and continue to pursue her.
Sometimes, Alice even admired Dorian’s persistence. If it were her, getting rejected that many times, she wouldn’t even know where to go cry.
But this time, when Dorian called for a casual chat, she directly said, "Are you free? How about meeting up for dinner?" The scene of Mabel being pulled into the car by Daniel’s mother had stirred many suspicions in her mind. She’d just called Mabel to ask how she was doing, but Mabel said she was fine. So, Alice was full of questions but didn’t know who to talk to.
Just then, Dorian called, and Alice figured she might as well ask him, since he always had well-informed news and might know something.
Dorian was quite surprised, not expecting this girl to invite him for dinner, and he immediately agreed.
However, Alice chose KFC as the place, and despite Dorian’s disdain for unhealthy fast food, Alice loved it. Knowing it wasn’t healthy, she still ate it a few times a month.
When Dorian arrived, Alice had already bought her meal and was eating it slowly at the table. Orıginal content can be found at ⓝovelFire.net
Seeing Dorian, she immediately offered enthusiastically, "What do you want to eat? I’ll go get it for you."
Her eagerness made him feel momentarily nostalgic, as if they were back to their dating days when she was just as eager, almost like a sycophant, trying to please him.
If someone else acted , he wouldn’t care, and might even find it annoying.
But when it’s her, he finds it endearing. Deep down, he still falls for her behavior.
Yet this girl, who repeatedly claims to cut ties with him, is now being so attentive for no reason, which surely means something’s up.
Without showing any emotion, Dorian watched Alice flitting around like a busy little bee, buying him food, getting extra napkins and ketchup, all with a smile that seemed a bit urgent.
"So, what’s up? Inviting me to dinner today?" Dorian asked. Although he disliked junk food, maybe because he was with her, he found the food didn’t taste so bad after all.
