Chapter 671 A Male Classmate

Because Enzer held them up at the school gate, Celine and Harper missed their bus and arrived at the mansion ten minutes later than usual.

Approaching seven o'clock, the distant sky was awash with the glow of twilight.

Harper found the view captivating, so she took out her phone, stopped, and decided to take a picture. “Cece, stand in front there. Let me take a picture of you. The silhouette against the sunset is incredibly beautiful right now!”

Celine felt a bit embarrassed. Other than the bestie photos she took with Harper on Saturday, she had never taken any other pictures, let alone getting photographed secretly like that.

She took a few steps forward. “Is this spot okay?”

“Move forward a bit more, Babe. Yes. Toward that external one, lower your head slightly, and look ahead! Hold steady!”

Harper's words made Celine blush from ear to ear. Fortunately, there aren't many people around. Otherwise, I won't be able to stand so naturally.

Just as she was thinking about that, Rowen rode over on his bicycle. “Celine?”

Upon hearing the sound, Celine instinctively looked in its direction as Harper pressed the camera button.

Apparently, she gave off a bit of a youthful idol drama vibe.

Upon seeing Rowen, Celine stiffened slightly, quickly lowering her hands to her sides. She stood there, lips pursed, and said, “Rowie.”

Rowen parked the bicycle, his foot resting on the ground. He looked at her and asked, “Why are you so late today?”

The Lewis family usually had dinner around half-pass six every day, which was exactly when Celine would get home from school.

It was already late in the evening, and Celine and Harper were still on the road.

Harper glanced at Rowen, then ran over to Celine with her phone. While holding Celine's arm, Harper said to Rowen, “You didn't know about this, did you? When we got out of school today, an old male classmate of Cece's came to see her. They caught up for a bit, and that's why we're late.”

Listening to Harper's words, Celine felt a bit embarrassed, but it seemed that Harper wasn't wrong.

“Male classmate?” Rowen looked at Celine and squinted his captivating eyes. “Aunt Katherine is waiting for us to have dinner. Get on the bicycle.”
