Chapter 158 L'Illusion

In the afternoon, while Claire is having her teatime. As she savored the soothing warmth of the tea, her phone rang, breaking the silence. She glanced at the screen and saw Talia's name. "Claire!"

Answering the call, Claire greeted her friend with a curious tone. "Hey, Talia. What's up?"

Talia's voice came through the line, bubbling with excitement. "Claire! I've got something amazing to tell you. Can we meet later this evening?"

Claire frowned slightly, puzzled by Talia's enthusiasm. "What's it about? Can't you just tell me now?"

Talia laughed. "No way! It's too good to spoil over the phone. Trust me, you'll want to hear this in person."

Claire sighed, her curiosity piqued. "Alright, you win. I'll meet you later. Where do you want to go?"

"Great!" Talia responded, her excitement palpable. "I'll text you the details in a bit. See you then!"

As the call ended, Claire placed her phone on the table, her mind buzzing with questions. She continued her teatime, the tranquility now tinged with anticipation.

Later that evening, Claire received a text from Talia with the details of their meeting place. The evening descended softly, bringing with it a crisp breeze as Claire pulled up to the restaurant Talia had chosen. The traffic had been unforgiving, causing her to arrive a bit later than she had hoped. As she stepped inside the warm, inviting interior, Claire quickly spotted Talia at a cozy corner table.

Talia stood up as Claire approached, a wide smile spreading across her face. "Claire!" she exclaimed, pulling her friend into a warm hug.

Claire chuckled, hugging her back. "I didn't know you missed me that much, Talia," she teased.

Talia rolled her eyes with a playful smile. "Oh, please. Sit down, you're just in time."

Talia grabbed Claire's hand, pulling her towards the entrance. The club's exterior was elegant, with a touch of modern flair.
