Are You Sure You're Not Avoiding Me?
"Of course not!" Cynthia finished the drink in her highball glass, set it down gently, and replied calmly, "But not right now."
Lily's eyes lost some of their excitement upon hearing this. "Why not just get it over with?"
At her words, a bright curve formed on the corner of Cynthia's lips. "Slowly tormenting someone is where the fun lies."
After parting ways with Lily, Cynthia returned to her hotel room.
Tristan and the others were in conversation. When they saw Cynthia, there was a momentary hesitation, clearly some avoidance.
"You guys continue," Cynthia said.
"One of us," Tristan and Cynthia's voices echoed simultaneously.
They exchanged a glance, a hint of a smile playing in their eyes.
Although Tristan had no reservations towards Cynthia, she did not stay to eavesdrop and instead returned to her bedroom.
She stretched out on the bed and started playing a matching game on her phone.
