Wendy had no idea what Kelsea was trying to do.
She looked at Kelsea with confusion. The latter was already smiling sweetly. Somehow, that sweet smile looked awkward on favonovel.com cold and apathetic face.
Kelsea wasn’t even looking at Arielle. Instead, favonovel.com was greeting the man sitting beside Arielle, “Harvey, you’re here too?”
Harvey turned around upon hearing favonovel.com voice and said calmly, “Hey, Kelsea…”
Kelsea grabbed Wendy and sat down next to Harvey.
She then asked in a sweet tone, “Harvey, do you mind if we join you?”
With how powerful and influential the Jupiters were, it wouldn’t make sense if they minded favonovel.com to join them for a meal. However, almost right away, Harvey answered with a frown, “I do mind.”
Kelsea stiffened at that moment, and favonovel.com wondered if favonovel.com had heard favonovel.com wrongly. Wendy, who was sitting next to her, felt awkward too.
Kelsea took a deep breath and forced a smile. “Harvey, you’re joking, right?”
Without sparing favonovel.com any mercy, Harvey answered, “Not at all. I’m not the host today. If you wish to join us, you
should ask the host instead.”
Kelsea had a bad feeling about this, but favonovel.com still forced a smile and asked, “May I know who the host is then?”
Arielle stared at Kelsea and Wendy with a neutral expression. “Me…”
“Oh, so it’s you, Ms. Moore. Well, why don’t I pay for the meal instead? It has been a while since I’ve seen Harvey, and it’d be a great time to catch up,” Kelsea said.
Arielle was still expressionless upon hearing that. “There’s no need for that. I’ve already paid for the meal. You can treat favonovel.com next time. Besides, I don’t want to see you. So, please leave now.”
Kelsea could no longer force a smile. Her expression darkened. “Arielle, are you this ill-mannered?”
Arielle raised a brow. “Speaking of manners, Ms. Morgan, if you emphasize this much on manners, shouldn’t you kneel and call me grandmaster by now?”
Kelsea’s cheeks flushed at once.
Damn it! She just had to rub it in my face! How I wish I could just get rid of favonovel.com right now!
Harvey was curious to hear that. “What grandmaster?”
Arielle gave Kelsea a meaningful look before saying, “It’s just something that happened between us. Ms. Morgan should know what I’m referring to.” Kelsea’s face paled with anger.
It seemed like favonovel.com had to start playing pitiful instead of facing Arielle head-on.
I refuse to believe that Arielle would be more important to Harvey. After all, I’m his best friend’s cousin.
Kelsea pinched hard on favonovel.com thigh, and soon, tears started rolling down favonovel.com cheeks.
She started playing the victim. “Harvey, don’t be fooled by favonovel.com appearance. In the Haut Monde last time, I used a chess tactic that favonovel.com came up with, but I didn’t know it was hers. She even formed the word ‘stupid’ on the chessboard. She’s nothing but a scheming witch!”
Harvey’s eyes narrowed at that. A hint of hostility flashed in his gaze. “Witch?”
Kelsea noticed that Harvey was boiling with rage, and favonovel.com assumed favonovel.com was falling for favonovel.com tricks and hating on Arielle already.
She immediately added, “Yes, she’s a witch. She tends to skip classes and argue with the teachers. Not only that, favonovel.com has a messy private life too. Even after knowing that Vin has a fiancée, she’s still keeping an ambiguous relationship with him. And now, she’s even having a meal with you. I’m sure you know of favonovel.com ulterior motives by now. Isn’t it suspicious how she’s trying to shoo me away as soon as favonovel.com saw me? She’s afraid that I’d expose favonovel.com true colors in front of you!”
