Chapter 0024

Winter loved ceviche, so she picked ceviche made from fresh salmon and some other common seafood dishes.

Miranda wasn’t used to eating raw food. She picked pasta and cured fish slices.

The pasta tasted average, but the ingredients were exceptionally fresh.

Noting that she was more modest with her choice of food, Winter teased her. ” This salmon is really tender. Are you sure you don’t want to try some? Who knows, you might come to enjoy it.”

Miranda declined. “You know me, I can’t accept raw food. I’ll just have my pasta.”

“All these years, and you haven’t changed a bit.

From the first day Winter had met Miranda, she’d realized the latter’s preferences never changed. Likewise, the things she hated remained the same.

Winter continued, “As a matter of fact, I’ve missed the spa for a few days now. My hands have become coarse.”

She sighed at the mention of this. She commented, “It’s all my dad’s fault. He’s been urging me to go on blind dates recently. Not only did my mom allow him to do so, but she also helped him trick me.

“It’s not like they can’t afford to let me live with them. Why would they go to that extent? Besides, if a genius like Paul is still single, why should I worry about marriage?”

At the mention of Paul, Miranda remembered that it had been some time.

since she’d last met him.

Although they were neighbors, they were both busy with their own matters. Since the day they’d had fondue together, she’d only met him once when she’d given him some sandwiches.

Winter didn’t realize that Miranda was distracted. She took a piece of cured fish slice as she recalled what had happened the last time. “What happened. after you visited Dr. Young with Paul?”

Miranda took another bite of her pasta. She chewed and swallowed before telling Winter what happened.

“That’s the whole story. Dr. Young reserved a spot for me, so I must pass the postgraduate admission exams this year.”

“Way to go! I like it when you’re confident! As a reward, I’ll take you somewhere this weekend. How about
