NovelEnglishChapter 263 Men Are All Beasts
When Camila called, Kate and Jasper were having a meal outside. “What’s up, sister?” Kate asked.
Camila’s voice came through. “George has asked us to have a gathering tomorrow evening. Come
over earlier tomorrow-we’ll meet at the restaurant on Riverdale Street!”
“Alright, but it’s on me tomorrow. No one else is allowed to pick up the tab!” Camila smiled. “No
problem, you’ll have the opportunity, but you have to help me out on something!”
Kate asked, “What is it?”
Camila sounded slightly embarrassed. “Well, Silas had sent me breakfast this morning , but George
saw it. I have no other choice but to lie that you were the one who sent it to me.”
Kate was shocked. “What? Silas made breakfast for you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCamila quickly said, “Shhh, please lower your voice! Do you want the entire world to know?”
Kate was nonchalant about it. “What’s wrong with that? If I were you, I would definitely show it off to the
entire world.”
Camila said, “That’s you, not me. I don’t want anyone else to know about this. Remember, if George
asks about it, tell him that you made it. If he doesn’t, you can forget it. He doesn’t seem suspicious
about it to me.” Kate laughed. “Alright, I got it. But hey, you have to tell me what I’ve made, right?”
“Spicy lobster, sautéed lily bulbs with celery, congee…” When she heard that, she giggled. “President
Nolan knows how to cook, huh?” Camila replied, “I think he made the vegetables, but the rest was
bought.” Kate asked, “No matter what, he surely treats you well enough, but why are you afraid of
letting George know?” Camila couldn’t explain this on the phone, so she forcefully said, “No matter
what, I can’t let him know about it.”
Kate said, “You are avoiding the question. Tell me, does George like you too?” “That’s all. Bye!”
With that, Camila hung up.
Upon looking at the phone after Camila ended the call, Kate couldn’t help but smile. She’s doomed this
time! Two men are trying to pursue her concurrently. Let’s see
what she’s going to do about it! While looking at her, Jasper asked, “Is this your best friend?”
“Yeah.”
“Is her son alright?” Kate replied, “He’s fine. He even picked up the phone the last time I called her. I
heard that Camila had nightmares last night, but it’s fine now.” While cutting the steak, he replied,
“That’s good then.” He had been studying abroad all the while and only returned not long ago to open a
local jewelry store. It was at a fashion party that he heard of the magazine publisher, ‘Bourgeoisie Life’.
Initially, he wanted to use the opportunity to collaborate with the magazine publisher to form a working
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrelationship with Kate, so that he could become closer to Silas. After all, connections would be a
powerful resource in the current society. After interacting with her, Jasper slowly developed a liking
toward her. She was kind, passionate, and straightforward. On top of that, she was quite humorous at
times. Soon, everything else didn’t seem so important to him.
“The steak from this restaurant is pretty authentic. Try this.” Jasper pushed the steak that he had just
sliced in front of her. Kate smiled. “Thanks. You are exceptionally polite. Is everyone who studied
abroad a gentleman?” He replied, “You can’t generalize everything. Not everyone who studies abroad
is chivalrous. Some of them might look decent, but they can be quite immoral.” She laughed out loud.
“So, you are actually one of those people?” He laughed. “Haven’t you realized that decency and
immoral aren’t contradictory? If the same person is being treated both ways, the perpetrator is a
gentleman indeed!” After thinking about it, Kate thought that Jasper’s explanation was rather
reasonable. Men are beasts, after all! “Well, at least you look like a gentleman. I’m not even ladylike,”
she said in exasperation.
