Chapter 189

They were both in Greenmeadow, and Jungler was an online celebrity of sorts, so Cordelia had no concerns about potential deceit. As for the meeting place, she hadn’t chosen one.

When Jungler realized she hadn’t specified a location, he sent over an address for the Sapphire Sojourn Hotel, with a quick message, “Is this okay?”

Cordelia shot back a reply, “Sure.”

As long as it was in Greenmeadow, she feared nothing.

Merry, noticing her nonchalance, sneakily glanced at the hotel name on the messaging app. The Sapphire Sojourn Hotel was currently the most opulent five–star establishment in Greenmeadow. She immediately sent a private message to Yates, “Yates, you familiar with the Sapphire Sojourn Hotel?”

Yates replied, “Yeah, it’s my family’s.”

Merry was stunned for a second.

Yates, “What’s up?”

Merry cleared her throat, “Step outside for a sec, I’ll fill you in face to face. It’s a bit of a pickle.”

After agreeing to meet at the stairwell, Merry explained everything to Yates, concluding with, “Lia’s meeting them there tonight. Let’s tag along in case things get rough. I can b back you up!”

Yates nodded, “Sounds good.”

Everard paused for a beat, “A bit. Which one?”

“POT.”

Leaning his head on his hand, Everard asked again, “Mobile or PC version?”

Cordelia was taken aback, “What’s PC version?”

“That would be for the computer.”

She had an ‘aha‘ moment. “Didn’t know this game had a PC version.”

Everard was speechless.
