It was not only the ladies chatting happily inside the cafe. The owner was extremely pleased, too.
After all, he was paid more money than he usually made in a day for letting the ladies book his space for a few hours.
Circe and her friends were from one of the wealthiest families. It only made sense for them to rent public places to protect their privacy.
“Circe, how’s studying at The Hexad School?” a friend of hers asked.
“The school is alright…” Circe answered.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
Suddenly, a loud ringing was coming from her phone. Circe smiled faintly before picking up her phone, “Please excuse me.”
However, she frowned at the sight of the caller ID. It was as if a dark cloud hovered over her head. It was Darryl.
Suddenly, Circe seemed disturbed. Darryl promised to refine her pill but ran away in the middle of it? Why was he calling?
Evelyn saw the name on her phone, and her face darkened instantly before she grabbed the phone.
“It’s that douche calling! ” Evelyn jeered.
Their friends leaned closer with curiosity.
“Hmm…Who’s calling Circe? Is it her boyfriend?”
“Ah! Are you secretly in a relationship? Show us. Show us!”
Evelyn almost threw up at their remarks. She scowled with a disdainful look, “Huh, a person like him!? Even if all the men in the world had vanished, he still wouldn’t stand a chance.”
“So, who is it?” they were excited to find out.
Evelyn explained angrily, “It’s the trash guy Darryl, who lied to us saying he could refine pills but ran away from the villa the other day.”
“Oh, him.”
“Hah! He seemed so dumb. It’s funny even thinking of him.”
All the ladies laughed, covering their mouths with their hands.
