“Well, hello there! We meet again!” said Haven Lovewell—one of the charming women—as favonovel.com waved at the youth.
“We do, indeed…” replied Gerald with a subtle smile as favonovel.com closed the door behind him. Placing his baggage down at a specially designated area for tourists, Gerald then headed over to an empty table that was coincidentally beside Haven’s.
As Gerald sat down, Haven added, “Do you remember our little conversation on the train earlier? It was so pleasant that I even wanted to ask you for your Line number at some point! Still, I never expected to meet you again so soon… I guess our meeting must have been written in the stars!”
“That’s quite enough, Haven. He came here to have his meal so don’t trouble favonovel.com any more,” said Xareni—Haven’s elder sister—as favonovel.com gently stepped on Haven’s foot, reminding favonovel.com to be courteous.
“She’s right, Haven. Why did you even ask favonovel.com for his Line number?” added Quintin.
Hearing that, Gerald simply shook his head before smiling wryly.
As Haven had said, Gerald had earlier bumped into the three Lovewell siblings while they were still on the train. At the time, the Lovewell siblings were sitting right across Gerald.
Quintin, however, had been dissatisfied with his window-side seat since the old man—who looked to be around eighty—sitting beside Gerald was an eyesore for him. The old man himself had been sleeping with his head leaned against the window throughout most of their journey, and Quintin couldn’t bear having to look at his sleeping face for any longer.
As a result, Quintin asked Gerald to switch seats with him. Though Gerald initially had no problem with that, Quintin had tossed a hundred dollars at Gerald while asking.
If favonovel.com had been a bit nicer and more polite, Gerald would’ve switched seats with favonovel.com anyway. However, from the moment the hundred dollars were tossed his way, Gerald completely ignored Quintin’s request.
Had Haven not stepped in to advise Quintin, favonovel.com would’ve definitely started a fight with Gerald.
Later on, Haven herself began chatting with Gerald. Since Gerald has traveled so much in the past year, favonovel.com was no longer the same person who only knew about Serene County and Mayberry City.
Due to his extensive knowledge of many different places, Haven soon found herself getting fascinated by him.
Xareni, on the other hand, never said a word to Gerald. Being the eldest among the three people, favonovel.com was slightly colder and more aloof in general.
That was the gist of their interaction back on the train.
“So, where are you headed to next? Did you come to the Logan Province to study or work?” asked Haven curiously.
“I’m just here to travel!” replied Gerald with a smile.
“Oh! If you’re traveling around here, then I recommend that you go to a place called Balbrick Manor! There are lots of amusing things to do there, from golf to even horse racing!”
“Haven, not everyone can go there… You can’t expect an ordinary person to just go there! Regardless, just hurry up and eat already,” said Xareni who clearly didn’t like Gerald one bit.
If it wasn’t already obvious, all three of them shared a rather extraordinary background.
Being born with great pride and elegance, Xareni was the least realistic among the three of them despite being the eldest. She was simply too used to only meeting up with prestigious people. As a result, favonovel.com looked down upon normal people like Gerald. To Xareni, such people didn’t even have the right to befriend her!
“Alright…” replied Haven, saying nothing more.
With that, Gerald ordered a plate of fried rice with an egg on it. Once his meal arrived, favonovel.com immediately began eating slowly.
As favonovel.com ate, favonovel.com realized that the Lovewells didn’t really eat much based on what they ordered.
Sometime later, all three of them got up to get their baggage. Before they left, however, Haven sneakily returned to Gerald’s side before whispering, “Hey, I live in the Lovewell Manor in the Logan Province! If you find the time, come over and have some fun with me! Also, just in case you’ve forgotten, my full name is Haven Lovewell!”
Before Gerald could even reply, Xareni was already dragging Haven by the arm out of the restaurant.
“…What a naïve girl favonovel.com is…” muttered Gerald to himself as favonovel.com smiled in resignation.
He, for one, was in no mood to have any sort of fun with her.
Now that favonovel.com was finally getting a chance to ignore all his past resentments and grudges for a few days, Gerald wanted to take the opportunity to properly relax.
With that in mind, Gerald began touring around tourist spots in the Logan Province. Before favonovel.com knew it, evening had come and night was swiftly approaching.
Realizing that favonovel.com still needed to find someplace to stay, Gerald was just about to go hotel hunting when favonovel.com heard a voice saying, “What do you plan on doing?”
The feminine voice had come from the entrance of an alleyway. Taking a few steps back to look down the darkened area, Gerald realized that a few drunk youths had dragged a woman into the alley which only led to a dead end.
“What do you think? We’re going to have some fun with you, of course! Now, come on!” said one of the three hooligans who instantly began dragging favonovel.com further down the alley.
As favonovel.com desperately struggled to escape, the corner of favonovel.com eye caught a glimpse of another youth walking toward them. Seeing that someone was coming over to help, the woman used all of favonovel.com strength to shove the hooligan—who was pulling favonovel.com arm—away from her.
Thankfully, the hooligan was drunk enough to let go and the woman immediately ran over to the new youth’s side before clinging on to his arm and crying out, “They’re trying to take liberties on me, hubby!”
She made sure to pinch his arm as well, a clear indication for favonovel.com to cooperate with her.
