Chapter 361 Read The Room

At fifteen minutes past eight in the evening in Sunset Br.

The agreed time was eight o'clock, but Sophia and Lenora intentionally arrived a bit late,

Sophia hoped the other party would wait for a while and leave because she hadn't shown up.

Inside the bar, there was a cacophony of voices. The entire place was bathed in the glow of red lights and the shimmer of countless bottles.

The two of them found a booth inside and sat down, ordering a couple of drinks.

Sophia took out her phone, sending a message through WhatsApp: I'm here. Where are you?

The other party responded: I'm not there yet. Please wait for a bit.

Sophia replied: All right. Then, she vented to Lenora, "D*mn! He's even more late than me!"

In a booth not far away, a tall figure sat with a languid grace. He was sipping his drink in utter boredom, occasionally glancing toward the entrance as if he were waiting for someone.

He had a refined appearance, adorned with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, emanating a scholarly and dignified aura. His clean and refreshing demeanor was like a breath of spring air, naturally drawing people to want to get closer. Just in the short time he had been sitting there, quite a few people had approached him, both men and women. However, he had turned them all down.

When he saw a certain figure enter and take a seat, his eyes lit up. He casually finished his glass of red wine and was about to get up and approach when suddenly, someone called out to stop him.

"Zephyr?" Summer approached with a warm smile. "I didn't expect to run into you in Jacaster. What a pleasant surprise."

Zephyr nodded. "It's quite a coincidence, indeed."

Summer introduced Howard, who was standing behind her. "Howard, this is my cousin's friend, Zephyr. And this is Howard, an old friend of Ezekiel."

Upon noticing the subtle hint of appeasement in Summer's interaction with Zephyr, Howard studied him for a moment. Extending his hand, he greeted, "Hello."

Zephyr glanced at him and extended his hand. "Hello."

As soon as he finished speaking, he withdrew his hand and said nonchalantly, "I have some matters to attend to, so I won't be able to entertain you any longer"

With a smile, Summer said, "Zephyr, please go ahead."

Zephyr rose and departed.

Summer and Howard settled themselves directly by the table.
