The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1026

Chapter 1026

She was a very gossipy person. Her eyes lit up immediately as she asked, "What kind of friend? A guy or a girl?"

I noticed Dazaray looking at me with rather disdainful eyes. I disregarded it and picked up my cutleries to continue with my meal.

I did not have much of an appetite anymore and stopped eating after a few bites.

When everyone was almost done eating, Shannon proposed to go sing.

Everyone agreed. After all, when we were abroad, we were constantly talking about how we should eat and have as much fun as we could when we got home.

The entertainment activities were all on the third floor with a large movie room in the center and private rooms for singing all around.

The purpose of this layout was to take into account that some people did not like to sing. Hence, they could come out to watch movies. It was very customerfriendly.

Although I was not that terrible at singing, my singing was most certainly not very good. My dancing skills

were not worth mentioning either. Hence, I sat on the sofa and ate the fruit on the platter as others had all the fun they wanted.

After about half an hour, I thought the private room felt a little stuffy. I planned to go out and get some air.

The main thing was not the stuffiness but the fact that Shannon had thrown me a look. She wanted me t o leave for a moment, maybe hoping to sit next to Jordan.

I was hoping to get some air too, so I simply left the private room.

Jordan was a man with a cool and indifferent bearing. I figured that something must have agitated him because he actually came upstairs with us to sing after dinner. I thought he would have left by now. It was truly strange.

A foreign film was playing on the big screen, one which I had never watched before. I thought it would b e pretty good, so I found a seat in the center and sat down.

Not long after that, I felt someone sitting next to me and subconsciously took a glance. I was surprised to find that it was Dazaray.

On second thought, it was normal for a religious person like her to not like such a rowdy environment.

"Do you know the man from before?” she asked.

She did not look at me when she asked the question.

I frowned, feeling more or less displeased by now.

When I realized that she was talking about Theo, I asked faintly, "Why?"

Dazaray smiled slightly. "There are many things we should let go of. I can forget about the things that happened abroad, but you need to remember what you owe me."

I pursed my lips, not saying a word.

Dazaray looked at me, wearing a slightly odd smile on her face. "Since we’ve all returned home and plan to b e friends, we'll continue to see each other. It'll inevitably be awkward if you keep acting this way."

She continued after a pause, "Some people can go around in circles but will eventually meet no matter how hard they try to hide. I call that fate, and what we have between us is fate, so I think we should just get along with each other."

I narrowed my eyes and looked skeptically at her.

Dazaray frowned, looking a little unhappy now. "It's fine if you don’t agree. I don't care if we keep being so awkward."

I sighed gently. "It's really exhausting for a person to overthink sometimes, Dazaray. I have never seen you a s my enemy nor treated you as one.”
