Chapter 412

"Let's go out."

Citrine was scrolling through her phone when the message popped up. She replied almost instantly: Where? Send me your location.

"Look at him-grinning like he just hit the jackpot," Quentin snorted.

Both Theo and Quentin had always been curious about Hastings' mysterious girlfriend. They'd wondered what kind of woman could make Hastings finally move on from his five or six-year crush on Kali. To them, no woman in the world could possibly compare to Kali.

When Citrine arrived, Hastings went downstairs to greet her in person.

They came up together, Hastings leading the way with Citrine right behind. The moment Theo and Quentin saw Citrine, their eyes widened in shock. Almost at the same time, they jumped up from the couch.
