Chapter 2290
After arriving at the restaurant and placing their orders, Nicole and Lulu chatted while waiting for their food.
"June is getting married, and I’m thinking about what wedding gift to give her." Lulu propped her chin up with both
hands, frowning in contemplation.
As her best friend, she felt that she should do more than just give her something simple; she wanted to give her a
gift that was more meaningful.
Noting Lulu's dilemma, Nicole teased, "Actually, you might as well consider having a double wedding. Wouldn’t that
be even more meaningful?"
"I..." Lulu sighed. ’Forget it."
Even though Nicole had jokingly suggested it before, Lulu had seriously considered the idea and found it
impractical. Her situation with Spencer was distinct from that of Samuel and June.

If two people loved each other deeply, a great deal of worries would automatically be rendered void. If Spencer
really cared about Lulu's background, he would not have dated her in the first place. And if Spencer had already
chosen Lulu, she had every right to stand by his side.
"Let's not talk about me. Let's talk about June," Lulu said in an attempt to change the subject.
Seeing that Lulu did not want to discuss it further, Nicole decided not to push her. "Let’s go out and choose a gift
some other day. There's no rush."
After all, Samuel's leg injury still needed more time to heal, which meant that there was more time to prepare for
their wedding. Therefore, they had all the time in the world to select the perfect gift for June.
Hearing this, Lulu agreed, "Alright, let's hit the mall together one day."
As they were about to dig in after their food had arrived, they heard a familiar voice.
"Oh, this place is great, Spencer. I heard the vibe and the food are unique, so we must try it."
Following the voice, Nicole and Lulu looked up to see Spencer and Icyln entering the restaurant.
Icyln halted in her tracks as she was not expecting to bump into Lulu and Nicole, with Spencer following suit.
The four of them exchanged glances, whereupon an awkward tension began creeping into the room.
"Let's eat, Nicole."
Lulu lowered her head as if nothing had happened and continued eating.
Nicole was at a loss for words as she furrowed her brows.
She believed that Spencer was maintaining a healthy, platonic relationship with Icyln, but being caught in such
situations repeatedly would inevitably create a rift between him and Lulu.
"Nicole, Lulu, you're here for lunch too, huh?" Spencer walked over to them, greeting them with delight.
The last thing he expected was to run into them during lunch.
As he was about to pull a chair over and take a seat, Lulu said, "This table is occupied, so why don't you get
another?"

"We just got done rehearsing and decided to find a place for lunch. It's quite a coincidence that we bumped into you
guys here." Icyln approached them, her voice casual and calm, though the smugness in her tone was evident.
"We don't know each other well, and you don't need to act as if you're pleased to see me. Since we're all here to
have a meal, just go ahead and occupy another table." Lulu shot Icyln an impatient glance, as if to say, "Get out of
my face and stop wasting our time."
Icyln's expression stiffened, and her face turned pale. "Is there a misunderstanding? Spencer and I really just came
for lunch. Nothing else."
Lulu stifled a cold snicker, finding Icyln's pretentiousness and attitude tedious to deal with. A person of her standing
was not worth paying attention to, so Lulu went on to disregard her, not bothering to acknowledge her.
Lulu lifted her brows, and with a stern look, she said, The thought of you and Spencer having any improper
intentions never crossed my mind."
She really just did not want to see them. And because of Icyln, Lulu did not even want to see Spencer right now. Just
thinking about them made her feel suffocated.
Icyln's face turned even paler, and she looked somewhat wronged as she said, "By saying that, you're still laying the
blame on me. You've really misunderstood Spencer and I."
