Chapter 9351
Mason explained to her, “Probably not, she’s local. I remember Trisha isn’t.”
“Oh Nicolas glanced at Celeste again, feeling like she looked familiar. A thought popped into his head, “Wait, aren’t you…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Jace Ledford’s voice came from behind, “Is this spot taken?”
Nicolas turned around to see Jace and Trisha behind him.
Trisha had put on makeup today and was wearing a pretty dress. Her eyes were naturally big, and she looked youthful and energetic, completely different from her usual tomboyish demeanor
Nicolas was surprised, but his expression changed when he saw her holding Jace’s hand.
He glanced at Jace and then at Trisha, “Why are you here? Do you know Lyman Rowley?”
Trisha obviously didn’t know him. The people she knew were the bride, a friend from high school. She came because she received a wedding invitation. And she ran into Jace in the lobby
Trisha glanced at him, “If you can be here, why can’t I?”
For some reason, she felt irritated whenever she saw Nicolas these days.
He didn’t do anything, but just looking at his face annoyed her
She was actually quite pleased when she ran into Dr. Ledford downstairs, but her mood instantly changed when she saw him.
Nicolas frowned, “You don’t even know the groom Are you just here for the food?”
Trisha immediately got angry. “Who are you calling a freeloader? I brought a gift, okay? Who told you I don’t know anyone? Do I have to report to you who I know? So annoying!
She then pulled Jace and said, “Let’s sit over there”
Jace said, “Those are the bride’s relatives over there. We don’t know them. Let’s just sit here, it will be less awkward”
Trisha pouted and muttered, “I can’t eat with Nicolas around”
Jace chuckled. “That’s just how Nicolas is, he’s just messing with you.”
Trisha didn’t say anything and sat next to the Simons, with Jace blocking Nicolas‘ view of her.
Nicolas felt uncomfortable and troubled
Trisha had been cold to him lately, and he was no fool. How could he not notice?
She agreed to cook for him in return for his help, but she said she didn’t need it the next day because she still had some work to hand over at the company, and her resignation process was not yet completed
He waited for two whole weeks, and during that time, he definitely felt that Trisha was not as close to him as before.
Before, she would ask him to play games at night. But now, whenever he invited her to play online, she always declined, saying she had other things to do.
She was clearly jobless, what could she possibly be busy with?
If all this was just him being overly sensitive, then her avoiding him when she went out for a walk confirmed his suspicions.
Even if they bumped into each other in the elevator, she would just nod and leave before he could even open his mouth, as if she had encountered something terrifying. This made Nicolas very uncomfortable
This feeling had been going on for a while, and it reached its peak when he saw her all dolled up and showing up with Jace today
She never dressed up like this for him. Was he not worth it?
Nicolas was filled with questions and decided not to talk to her anymore in anger.
And he had completely forgotten what he was about to say to Selena.
Celeste breathed a sigh of relief. Neither of them recognized her, which gave her more confidence.
She picked up her glass and was about to take a sip when a familiar male voice came from behind, “Sorry, I’m not late, am 17”
