“It’s your problem then?”
“F*ck off!”
“Why so angry? I’m not saying that you have a dysfunction!” Nicholas lowered his voice. “I mean… have you been
doing it too often?”
Zephyr sent him a death glare.
Nicholas gave him an abrupt punch in the chest, seeing his expression. “I’m right, huh!? Insider tip, you can’t do it
too often. Hold it for a few days, and once the time’s right, go all out, and that’s how you hit the bullseye!”
Zephyr was scowling impatiently. “Where do you get all this nonsense from?”
“It’s science.” Nicholas looked at him seriously.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Right!’ Zephyr cursed at him in his mind.
He was only earning a few dollars when he was not being ‘scientific’. How would he work hard and make money if
he were to go the ‘scientific’ route!?
While Nicholas and Zephyr were in a heated conversation, Fredric’s dejected back by the bar felt out of place.
“Hey, Fredric!” Josiah went over to pat him with his wine. “Stop spacing out alone! Come hang with us!”
“I…” Fredric looked hesitant. He looked down promptly once he met Zephyr’s stern gaze.
Zephyr poured himself some alcohol and said softly, “What is it? Go on.”
Fredric hesitated. It made everyone think that he was being sad over Michelle again.
When they had already drafted their pieces of advice for him, he suddenly asked, “Z, is Trinity really dating Neil?”
Everyone was baffled.
Zephyr looked into his eyes with a smile that did not reach his own.
“How would I know?”
“Right?” Josiah responded without much thought, “Ask Trinity if you want to know the truth!”
Fredric kept his lips pressed together without a word.
“Fredric, you’re acting weird today. Why do you suddenly care about Trinity? We thought that you were all gloomy
and sad here because of Michelle again!”
Fredric chuckled wryly after a pause. “I’ve seen her for who she is. I don’t feel much for her now…”
“Oh!” Josiah was struck with another realization. “So, you mean you have feelings for Trinity now?”
Fredric froze and felt his heart thump. He could not pinpoint why either, but when he saw the photo of Trinity
chatting happily with Neil, he felt a clench in his heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFredric licked his lips. “Z, I… I was just asking.”
Zephyr took a deep breath.
What was it again? The man was basically giving himself away!
If the booth was not dim, he would want to record Fredric’s expression and keep it so he could embarrass him in
the future.
“I can’t answer this.” Zephyr chuckled. “Besides, I think it’ll be pretty nice if Trinity does end up together with Neil.
They match in status and have similar interests. Good match!”
“Z, now you’re in the wrong!” Josiah turned to him with a frown. “Didn’t you hate Neil in the past? Almost shelved
the guy too? And you’re talking for him today?”
“That’s in the past,” Zephyr replied calmly. “He’s Cordelia’s cousin now. That means he’s my cousin too. Naturally,
I’ll take my family’s side!”
He looked at Fredric after he spoke, and the latter remained unmoved.
Zephyr was rendered speechless. He was unable to force the truth from Fredric despite this?
