Nina Sinclair glanced at Julian Lancaster and Sharon Lancaster, feeling that their trio was peculiarly mismatched, and seemed hard to coordinate.
So, Nina hesitated and said, "Sharon, should we call a couple more people?"
With a few more people it wouldn’t be so awkward, otherwise she wouldn’t know how to face Julian Lancaster. Although she was happy to be going out with him, their relationship was too strange now.
Sharon secretly stole a glance at Julian.
On the surface, this outing was to cheer Nina up, but in reality, she was trying to pair the two of them up. What if Nina wanted to sleep with her tonight?
This means they definitely need to call one more person.
Sharon said, "Nina, you’re right, three people really is too few. Hold on... I’ll call a friend."
With that, Sharon took out her phone and dialed a good friend’s number from her contacts.
For some reason today, none of Sharon’s good friends in Veridia could be reached by phone, and the only one who answered couldn’t get away to come over.
After going through a whole effort, Sharon felt a bit deflated, her face full of frustration.
She couldn’t find a single person!
Nina had no friends in Veridia either; her only good friend was Sharon, and the other was Sierra Sinclair, who had poached her boyfriend. Now only Sharon remained as her best friend.
Seeing Sharon’s troubled look, Nina said, "It’s okay if we can’t find anyone. Let’s just go the three of us then."
"No way!" Sharon vetoed it instantly.
Knowing Nina well, she would definitely suggest that they sleep together tonight. She absolutely had to find one more person.
Just as Sharon was feeling extremely anxious, Julian spoke up, "I’ll get someone."
"You’ll find someone? Who could you possibly find...?" Sharon scoffed, wasn’t Julian afraid of being exposed? Everyone around him was either rich or of high status.
Without waiting for the two to agree, Julian already took out his phone to make a call.
With a deadpan expression, he spoke seriously, "I’ll send you the location, take a cab and meet us in ten minutes, we’re going camping, with Sharon and me."
After saying that briefly, Julian immediately hung up the phone.
Nina and Sharon watched curiously, wondering whom he had called and whether it was a man or a woman.
They waited in the car for a whole ten minutes, before finally seeing a taxi pull up next to them, and soon after the door opened, a tall, handsome man stepped out.
Sharon’s eyes widened in shock when she saw the man, "Louis Quinn!"
Damn, how did her brother bring this guy over!
Nina noticed Sharon’s astonished expression and asked curiously, "Sharon, do you know him?"
"Uh... hahaha, yes, met him once, not very familiar..." Sharon laughed awkwardly, attempting to explain.
Just kidding! Of course, she knew him!
He was one of the four prominent figures of Crestfall, the eldest son of the Quinn family, Louis Quinn, and a good friend of her brother! ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt
Sharon glanced at Julian, seemingly upset at him for inviting Louis Quinn, but Julian looked straight ahead, acting as if he hadn’t noticed Sharon’s look. Finally, Sharon had to relent.
She feared Louis might unknowingly reveal Julian’s true identity, letting Nina find out, so she hurriedly pulled him aside before anything spilled out.
After ensuring Nina couldn’t hear, Sharon whispered to Louis, "Hey, Louis, how come you’re back from abroad? Wait, shouldn’t you be in Crestfall? How come you’re in Veridia?"
