Chapter 257: Knowing Someone by Appearance
As soon as Omari walked into the room, he saw Iker's creepy move and realized that Iker was interested in Cheyenne and posed as a potential love rival. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
No, he needed to hurry up and help Cheyenne find the herbs and catch the culprit so that Iker could leave the villa sooner.
Feeling a chilling gaze at the door staring at him, Iker immediately became alert and looked towards the person standing there, holding Cheyenne's hair!
He was so engrossed that he didn't even notice Omari coming in; this was such an oversight! "Mr. Lara."
He wasn't sure how much Omari had seen but judging from his angry eyes like those of an angry leopard, Omari probably saw everything.
Iker naturally threw away Cheyenne's hair into the trash can and forced a smile while trying to remain calm. "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lara."
Of course Omari was angry; instead of taking on orders worth billions of dollars, he helped Iker find herbs. But the latter was coveting his favorite woman - how despicable!
"I've bought all of your herbs. Master Iker, wishing you an early recovery." Early recovery? More like early departure!
Iker rarely smiled but this time he did. "Thank you for your blessings, Mr. Lara; I also hope for my own speedy recovery."
"Hmph!" Omari snorted before walking upstairs to give Cheyenne some hints about keeping her distance from Iker because appearances can be deceiving...
In the room, Cheyenne wore cool pajamas with open windows letting in gusts of wind, blowing through countless strands of hair behind her back and making them look elegant yet soft... God really favors beautiful people.
The phone rang again and this time Kate answered quickly, but her voice was choked with sobs from the moment she spoke. Cheyenne was startled by the sound.
This girl was everyone's little ray of sunshine. When she was a little girl and scared by caterpillars so many times, she never cried but instead laughed heartily.
"Cheyenne, I feel so uncomfortable. I don't know who to talk to about this, so I can only come to you. Hope I'm not bothering you."
Cheyenne listened as her crying grew louder, and her heart began to race along with the waves of emotion. "Okay, stop crying for a moment and tell me what's going on. Why are you crying when everything was fine?"
Kate was even more saddened by her question. She couldn't stop crying and couldn't even speak a complete sentence through the intermittent sobs.
"... Che... Cheyenne, I... I lost my virginity..."
"What?" Cheyenne's pupils dilated in an instant as she lifted her head to glance at her reflection on the glass window.
"Kate, you..."
Cheyenne wanted to ask if it were the senior that Kate liked... but then she thought, if it really was Graeme, Kate wouldn't be crying right now.
"I don't know who it was..."
"What! How could you be so confused?"
No matter how soundly one sleeps, there will always be some memories, even if they may be unpleasant ones.
Kate bit her finger and tearfully recalled... but she had drunk a lot of alcohol last night, and thinking made her head ache.
She really had no impression.
"I... I had dinner with the members of the club last night and drank quite a bit."
Last night at the hotel, many people toasted to her, but Cheyenne believed Kate had a such a high tolerance that Kate wouldn't easily black out.
Cheyenne had Kate recount the events of the previous night. It turned out that Kate had attended a club dinner where Graeme was a member, and Peyton, being Graeme's cousin, naturally joined in. Peyton and Kate had often clashed with each other. Timothy, on the other hand, played the role of a "photographer" in the club. He came from a less privileged background but had excellent academic performance, which had earned him a scholarship to Akloit College.
Akloit College was different from other schools. It didn't just accept top-tier students; it also welcomed those willing to pay their way through. Kate belonged to the latter category.
On the other hand, Kate's brother, Eddie, was an accomplished graduate of this institution, a source of pride for the teachers. Yet, Kate, as his sister, had entered thanks to her family's financial
contributions, which led to some behind-the-scenes gossip.
Timothy, on the other hand, represented the self-made and hardworking students. He couldn't stand rich kids like Kate, who had managed to get in because of their wealth. He was currently pursuing Peyton, who, like him, came from a modest background and had earned her place through her own efforts.
In essence, this was a love quadrangle. Kate secretly liked Graeme, Peyton had feelings for Graeme, and Timothy had a crush on Peyton. At the center of it all was Graeme, known for his aloof demeanor. He never accepted any girl's confession.
