Chapter 151
Olivia quickly clarified, âWe're just friends. It's not what you think,
Soof-"
Before she could finish, a voice called out from the cafeteria. âSoof.â
Sophie turned to see her brother Claude at the door, accompanied by a
university guide.
Olivia didnât expect Claude to come all the way here just to see her.
She felt glad but also surprised.
Claude told the guide, âI have something I need to sort out, I won't be
joining you for lunch.â
The guide responded, âNo problem. The cafeteria food's decent. You
can try them.â
Claude nodded, and the guide left.
One of Sophie's friends exclaimed when she saw Claude, âWhose
brother is that? He's hot!"
Claude, in a white shirt and black pants, effortlessly drew attention. He
was the type most women would like.
Approaching their table, he asked Sophie, âHaving lunch?â
Sophia looked confused. âWhat are you doing here?â
âI've got some work here. Thought I'd drop by to say hi,â Claude
explained gently, then glanced at Olivia, who was gripping the table's
edge. He called out, âOlivia.â
Sophia observed her brother's face and then Olivia's, sensing that
something was going on between
them.
Olivia released her grip on the table and replied, âThanks for earlier,
Claude.â
Claude didn't seem bothered. âNot at all. I didnât think things through.â
Sophie wondered what âearlierâ meant. She watched them closely.
Claude then asked, âCan I have a word in private, Olivia?"
Olivia didnât know what he wanted but felt it would be rude not to
respond, âUm.. okay.â
Claude told Sophie, âI'm gonna talk to Olivia. Enjoy your lunch.â
Sophie never refused her brother. Though it seemed odd, she agreed,
âSure.â
And so, Olivia and Claude left the cafeteria, walking around campus.
After some time, Claude questioned, âAnything happened lately?â
âNo.â
âWhy didnât you reply to my messages?â
âI've been... busy,â Olivia replied.
