Chapter 353
Kayson was speechless, while Queenie quickly said, “Riley, it’s not a good time today. I’ll buy you a meal some other time.”
Riley glanced at Kayson in disdain before she caught Queenie’s hand. “Queenie, it’s pathetic for a pretty girl like you to be sitting outside.
“I’m eating with a few friends in the room upstairs. Come with us. Oh yeah, Celeste’s here too!”
“When did she come back?” Queenie asked, surprised by the information. Riley grinned. “Just yesterday. You didn’t know?” “She didn’t tell me…” Queenie furrowed her brows.
Kayson spoke up. “Go have a look if you want to.”
He could see that Queenie seemed to be close to Celeste, as there was a flash of delight in her eyes when Riley mentioned Celeste.
Queenie glanced at Kayson in slight embarrassment. However, she was quite puzzled and she did want to check the situation out.
Riley was a little disgruntled upon seeing that Queenie wanted to take Kayson along, but she said nothing. She only threw the guy a dirty look On the way there, Queenie told Kayson softly, “Celeste sat with me in high school, and we were very close. We weren’t in the same university, but we kept in touch. “She went abroad after that, and we didn’t lose contact then either. If she’s back, she should’ve told me.”
Queenie and Celeste were truly close, so Queenie understood that something must be wrong right after Celeste spoke. “Celeste’s right. I only came to have a look Since it’s not a good time, we’ll meet some other day.”
Riley glared at Celeste immediately before she turned to Queenie with a smile. “Queenie, don’t be a stranger. We’re all friends. It’s not like it takes a lot of effort to sit down and have a meal together. Desmond is no Scrooge.”
Bam!
The guy named Desmond, Desmond Studt, slammed the table suddenly and sneered, “What’s the matter? Is this so hard to do?” “No…” Queenie answered quickly in shock Kayson suddenly smiled. “Queenie, since Desmond’s already said so, we’ll just stay. Let’s not upset him.” Desmond grinned at once. “Bro, you’re the man. What’s your name?”
