Chapter 1815


    Positioned in front were Caprice, Isabel, Flint, and Queenie. The four of them had no trouble smiling at all as they shed their


    rows of white teeth with pride.

    The photographer captured the beautiful scene, a memory to be cherished forever.


    Time flew.


    Sixteen yearster.


    Westchester.


    At a nightclub in a college town.


    Caprice held a bottle of beer and took asional sips from it. She wore a neat red dress that


    entuated her waistline, her natural locks of curly hair were very eye-catching.


    Even though she was seated in a remote corner, it did not dissuade flocks of men froming up to her to strike up a


    conversation.


    She did not entertain any of them.


    Some of the men had a foul temper but knew better than to voice their frustrations since Caprice was with her friends. They


    retreated, hanging their heads low in defeat.


    Three of Caprice’s housemates came drinking with her.


    They were the ones who did her makeup for her.


    Today was her birthday, so they decided toe here for a celebration.


    Celebrating her birthday was the primary objective. The secondary objective was to find a man for her.


    “Caprice, what''s the matter with you? Some of them were pretty handsome, why wouldn’t you at least try to talk to them?” the


    short-haired Lana asked, her voice tinged with curiosity.


    “Yeah, if | didn’t have a boyfriend already, I''d have chosen one of them easily. Aren’t you interested at all?” Freya was the one


    with an hourss figure. She was baffled by Caprice’sck of interest.


    Freya suddenly eximed dramatically, “Caprice, you''re not into girls, are you?”


    Immediately after raising the question, both she and Lana shrunk away from Caprice.


    As if they were afraid that Caprice would confess her affection for them.


    Caprice took another sip of beer and looked sullen. It did not seem like she was in the mood for banter.


    Freya and Lana were very puzzled. They darted looks at Piper who was sitting on the other side of Caprice.


    Piper and Caprice had known each other for more than a decade. They both hailed from nchester and came to Westchester


    University to study together. They pretty much grew up together.


    Piper sighed and assured them. “She’s straight, you two are safe.”


    “Then why isn’t she looking for a boyfriend?” Lana asked in a puzzled tone.


    Piper nced at Caprice and said, “She doesn’t want to, she must''ve someone on her mind already.”


    However, it seemed to her that this certain someone did not reciprocate her feelings.


    Freya and Lana exchanged a look, then they asked Piper, “Who''s this mysterious man?”


    Caprice returned from her state of trance and frowned irritably.


    Piper immediately deflected. “I don’t know either, | was just guessing.”


    She had promised Caprice not to spill her secret.


    Although Freya and Lana were good friends, they were not to be trusted with keeping secrets. If they knew that Caprice had


    been secretly in love with the eldest son of her parent''s friends, it mightplicate situations going forward.


    Freya and Lana bought Piper’s lie, and they turned their attention back to Caprice.


    Freya probed, “Caprice, who is it? Just between me and you, | know a lot of people in Westchester. Just say the name of this


    mysterious man and | promise you I’ll do everything in my power to set you two up together!”


    Lana chimed in. “That''s right, it doesn’t even matter if he has a girlfriend, we can fix that for you!”


    Caprice made a look, then she craned the bottle of beer at a vertical degree and finished the whole thing. in one smooth motion.


    Freya and Lana were speechless.


    Piper was just as baffled.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Caprice was usually well-behaved and reserved. This was the first time they had ever seen her downing beers like this.


    Freya was immediately rmed and hurriedly stopped Caprice. “Caprice, I’m so sorry if we said something that upset you. Look,


    if you’re sad you can tell us! Don’t drink yourself to death.”


    “That’s right, Caprice, stop drinking please “Lana tried to help as well.


    It seemed like Caprice had filtered out their voicespletely. As soon as she finished the first bottle, she reached for another


    one.
