While Camille was lost in thought, Valdaâs voice rang in her ear, âCamille, Brian and I are back together.â
âGetting back together would be nice,â Camille replied casually.
After a few seconds, she suddenly seemed to realize something and stared at her friend with widened eyes, âWhat did you say? You and the prince are back together?â
âCorrect,â said Valda.
âYou⦠why did you decide to be with the Crown Prince again? Is it because he saved you and played the hero this time?â Camille asked curiously.
After a moment of contemplation, Valda said, âI think this incident made me realize something. No one knows what the future holds, but at least for now, I have found someone I love and who loves me back.
Itâs not easy to come by. Although I donât know if we can be together in the end, I donât want to give up without trying. I canât bear to.â
âThe fact that the Crown Prince was willing to take a stab for you shows that he truly cares for you. I think you two have a good chance,â Camille said with a grin. âCome to think of it, maybe my mishap was a blessing in disguise. Otherwise, you and the Crown Prince might not have reconciled so quickly.
If you two get married in the future donât forgot together. Youâre already thinking about marriage. Isnât that too far-fetched?â
âIs it? Donât you want to marry the Crown Prince?â Camille teased.
Marriage⦠If they get married, they will have children. Then, she remembered what Brian said this morning about eyelashes being a dominant gene. Their children would most likely inherit long eyelashesâ¦
What would their children look like?
âHey, what are you thinking about?â Camilleâs voice interrupted her thoughts.
Valda suddenly realized that she was thinking too far ahead.
âBy the way, itâs almost dinner time. Why donât we go out and have a meal together? Thereâs a mall nearbyâ¦â Camille suggested.
Valda suddenly remembered, âOh no, Brian said he would pick me up after work today!â
She took out her phone and quickly dialed Brianâs number as she spoke.
After a moment, the other end of the phone was answered and Valda said, âBrian, Iâm not at the studio right now, you donât need to come pick me up.â
All A âIâm at the police station right now, just came out from there. The police caught the woman Camille brought up last time, so we came here to confirm it.â Valda said, âLater, Camille and I will grab a bite nearby. Iâll come back after I finish eating.â
âLet me come over then, do you mind having one more person?â he said.
She paused for a moment, glanced at her friend beside her, and then quietly relayed Brianâs words.
Camille immediately smiled and said, âOf course I donât mind. I was just thinking of treating the prince to a good meal to thank him for saving my life!â This was the perfect opportunity.
So Valda and Brian mentioned the name of the mall they planned to go to, âOnce Camille and I arrive at the store, Iâll send you the name of the store and the seat number, but weâre just going to eat at a regular restaurant in the mall.â It wasnât the fancy club that he had taken her to before.
âOkay, I understand,â Brian responded.
Camille and Valda picked a Cantonese restaurant in the mall. Camille specifically chose a relatively upscale one, with the intention of repaying Valdaâs kindness. Naturally, she selected at better one within her budget.
âFirst of all, let me make it clear that Iâm treating you today. Thank you very much to you and the Crown Prince for saving my life.
Otherwise, I would feel guilty.â said Camille.
âIs it a bit expensive?â Valda looked at the menu and said, the dishes on it are not cheap, and it is estimated that it will cost her friend half a monthâs salary for a meal.
