Chapter 2292
Recognizing Lulu's signal, Nicole nodded.
"We're done eating, but do take your time," Lulu said as she kissed Spencer on the cheek. "Babe, remember to
come to my place after work for a candlelight dinner."
With that, Lulu stood up and left in big strides.
Nicole suppressed her laughter as she nodded at Spencer and Icyln before sauntering off as well.
Spencer was still staring at Lulu's figure, lost in thought even after she had disappeared at the door.
"Spencer," Icyln uttered, on the verge of erupting as she gritted her teeth in anger.
Spencer glanced at Icyln and said, "Eat up. We have a rehearsal in the afternoon."
He then continued eating, though his mind was inundated with images of Lulu's every move, every smile, and

He suddenly felt that time was passing too slowly and wished that the workday would end already.
Icyln's face blanched as she furiously skewered the food on her plate with her fork and knife.
She did not understand why Lulu was so hard to deal with.' Shouldn’t others feel jealous and break out into a fight in
this kind of situation? With Lulu, why is it that their relationship seems to become even stronger?'
She did not get it, but she could not do anything about it either. So, all she could do was repeat to herself that she
would never lose to Lulu.
Outside the restaurant, Nicole and Lulu were already in the car.
The lively and confident Lulu had now become sullen, much like a wilted flower.
"Your fighting spirit is gone almost instantly," Nicole remarked with a wry smile.
"I didn't want to acknowledge them, but that scheming b*tch had to come and make things difficult for me. How
could I let her off easy?"
Now, Lulu did not like to torture herself, but if they were going to mess around with each other, everyone should be
involved, with nobody getting away with anything.
"So, what's going on with you now? You look like a wife who just got cheated on." Nicole said.
She found Lulu much more exciting moments ago. There was no need for her to suffer at the hands of others, and
indeed, if anyone attempted to start a fight with her, she should, without a shadow of a doubt, strike back.
Lulu sighed as her expression stiffened for a moment.
"Are you really angry at Spencer?" Nicole asked candidly.
Lulu lowered her head. "Not exactly angry, because I know he is just fulfilling his promise to his teacher, whom he
can't turn his back on. But still, deep down, I feel really uncomfortable."
That feeling was not a pleasant one. If she was angry, she could throw a fit, quarrel about it, and feel better

them acting as though they were couples still made her feel uncomfortable and hurt.
"That's why I'm telling you to get married soon. It'll naturally get rid of pesky flies like Icyln," Nicole teased.
Looking at Nicole with a tilted head, Lulu asked, "Did Spencer bribe you into convincing me? Tell me, why have you
been urging me to get married recently?"
"I just want you to get it over with once and for all."
To Nicole, everything would be settled, and all of their issues would be dealt with once they were married.
"I understand where you're coming from, but I can't get past this feeling in my heart."
This was perhaps a result of her insecurities getting in her way. She wanted to work harder, become stronger and
more deserving of him.
"Oh, you," Nicole could not help but roll her eyes at Lulu." You’re really clever sometimes, but more often than not,
you have a tendency of getting yourself stuck in a rut."
"Really?" Lulu blinked her eyes, wondering if her way of thinking was wrong in the first place.
Hearing that, Nicole earnestly explained, "Think about it. If you give up on Spencer and he ends up with someone
like Icyln, do you really think they will be a good match?"
