Tanya lowered her head shyly. “Stop it…”
Tiffany was enlightened when she saw the look on her face. “Sure, of course. I understand. This is great news. Don’t worry, I’ll do everything I can to make it happen between you two. We should always keep the goodies in the family. It’s first come, first serve. I’ll invite him for you.”
The group agreed to meet up at the shopping mall. Tanya had happily dressed up too. Eric was the last to arrive… And he wasn’t alone. He had brought a woman.
The woman standing next to Eric seemed like a good match for him. She was shining and beautiful, and absolutely dazzling… Tanya’s face turned ashen, unsure of how to react.
Tiffany had no idea that Eric had a girlfriend. She felt very awkward when she saw the peculiar look on Tanya’s face. “Eric, what’s going on? Who is this? Won’t you introduce us?”
Eric confidently put his arm around the woman’s shoulders. “This is my girlfriend, Vicky Nathanial. This is her first time meeting all of you. We’ve been talking for half a year, and we got together when she returned to the states. We plan on moving in together.”
Vicky wasn’t exactly dressed in a grandiose style. She wore a white mid-length knitted coat with a white t-shirt on the inside, a pair of light grey jeans, and ankle boots. Her tall and slender figure served as an asset in showing off the outfit to its highest potential. Her simple elegance carried an absolutely attractive air. She wore minimal make up on her face, so it was clear that she had gorgeous features. Her palm-sized, delicate, oval-shaped face and long, straight black hair was simply stunning. She seemed meek and polite too. “Hello, everyone. I’ve just arrived back in the country, and I’ve been eager to meet you. Would you like to join us for dinner tonight? My treat.”
Vicky smiled innocently. “Of course, not. Why would I? Ricky’s always been very kind. He’s even saved a wounded stray dog once. Of course, he’d help a friend like you.”
Tanya lost all her willpower to fake a smile when she heard this. Tiffany’s heart sank as well. Looks like Vicky wasn’t as meek as she seemed. No woman would be fine with having a member of the opposite sex staying with her boyfriend. Furthermore, Tanya had been cleaning up after him, even after she had moved out.
Jackson and Eric were walking behind the three women and chatting about business, blissfully unaware of the rising turmoil in front.
