Hailey and Scarlett had agreed to meet at noon, but the car took almost an hour to reach the restaurant. Hailey arrived at 11.30 ΑΜ.

Scarlett had reserved a table in advance. Since it was just the two of them, she hadn’t bothered with a private room, and they sat in the main dining area on the first floor.

Owen followed Hailey inside, seemingly aware she was meeting someone, so he didn’t sit with her. Instead, he sat at the table beside hers, neither too far nor too close.

Hailey pretended he wasn’t there.

After waiting for a few minutes, Scarlett arrived. She stood up and waved enthusiastically.

Scarlett was sharp and perceptive. As soon as she spotted Hailey, her gaze naturally shifted to Owen sitting nearby. It was hard to miss him–his posture was perfect, his presence undeniable.

Scarlett made her way over to Hailey, a bright smile lighting up her stunning face. “Looks like you’ve got yourself a little admirer.”

Hailey blinked, caught off guard. “How did you know?”

Scarlett grinned. “The news about you returning home is everywhere–just a quick search, and you’ll be flooded with stories. And the guy sitting next to you? Isn’t he your old flame?”

“You are… quite the gossip,” Hailey said with a helpless laugh, rubbing her forehead.

Scarlett waved over the waiter and ordered a cappuccino.

Scarlett was the type to always care for herself and never hold back when treating herself well.

Hailey had known Scarlett for over a year. Their friendship wasn’t particularly deep, but they’clicked in ways neither expected.

Hailey knew Scarlett’s background–her family had struggled financially, and getting the chance to study abroad had taken a lot of effort. Once Scarlett had money, she made sure to indulge herself.
