Chapter 1595: 393: Miss Hua educating on how to be a human, Miss Song, I’m really sorry!_2 Chapter 1595: 393: Miss Hua educating on how to be a human, Miss Song, I’m really sorry!_2 Upon hearing this, Eva Webster slightly furrowed her brows.
She had not expected Mandel Thompson to suddenly speak.
Eva echoed, “Mr. Thompson is absolutely right.”
After finishing her sentence, Eva added, “By the way, Mr. Thompson, may I presume to ask you a question?”
“Please do, Miss Daisy,” replied Mandel.
Isla Astir then said, “Mr. Thompson, you personally dropped me and Isla off. Will your girlfriend get mad if she finds out?”
“I don’t have a girlfriend,” replied Mandel.
No girlfriend.
Upon hearing his reply, Eva’s heart rate spiked drastically.
This is fantastic!
He doesn’t have a boyfriend.
Does this mean, she had a chance now?
Eva tried hard to calm herself down.
She felt, certainly, that she had attracted Mandel’s interest.
Otherwise, Mandel wouldn’t have made a point to clarify that he didn’t have a girlfriend.
The more she thought about it, the more excited Eva became.
Before long, they had arrived at the destination.
Eva was startled.
How did they reach so quickly?
However, Eva didn’t let her surprise show. Instead, she courteously said, “Thank you, Mr. Thompson.”
“No problem, it was on the way.”
Eva pulled out her phone, carefully choosing her words, then said, “Mr. Thompson, I’d like to treat you to tea sometime.”
“Thank you.”
Eva narrowed her eyes, seizing the opportunity. Since Mandel didn’t refuse her invitation, it meant he was indeed interested in her.
“Mr. Thompson, how about we add each other on WhatsApp? We can communicate there when we have time.”
Add each other on WhatsApp?
Hearing this, Isla Astir was taken aback.
Eva really knew how to make surprising statements.
Mandel maintained his refined and cultured demeanor, and looking at Eva, apologized, “I’m sorry, my phone battery is dead.”
The phone battery is dead?
Eva slightly furrowed her brows.
This is a bit too coincidental.
Still smiling, Eva replied, “That’s alright. I need to get going now.”
Having said that, Eva turned to look at Isla Astir, “Isla, I’m leaving first.”
“Okay,” Isla Astir nodded politely, “Take care, cousin.”
Before Eva could respond, Mandel hit the accelerator.
And with that,
the black Cayenne disappeared out of sight.
Watching the direction the car had taken, Eva felt so frustrated she almost gritted her teeth.
She knew that Mandel’s phone battery was not dead.
He simply did not want to add her on WhatsApp.
As to why Mandel did not add her,
there was no need to guess. Isla Astir must have played a considerable role in this.
She’s superior to Isla Astir.
So Isla Astir envied her.
Her envy slowly morphed into jealousy, so Isla Astir must have badmouthed her in front of Mandel.
Reversing black and white.
Isla Astir was truly repulsive.
After all, they were cousins.
Even if they did not share blood ties, there should be feelings of affection between them.
How could she behave this way?
Wait for it.
One day, she would exact her revenge.
And make Mandel see for himself what kind of person Isla Astir truly was!
With this thought in mind, Eva tightly clutched her fists with so much force that her knuckles had already turned white.
In the car,
Mandel gripped the steering wheel with both hands, staring straight ahead, “I didn’t add your cousin on WhatsApp just now. I hope that didn’t cause you any inconvenience?”
It seemed Isla Astir did not anticipate Mandel’s sudden question. She was stunned, but then replied, “It’s fine.”
Isla Astir grew up with Eva.
She understood Eva well.
Eva has always been competitive. She wouldn’t allow anyone to surpass her.
Her academic qualifications were not as high as Eva’s.
Neither was her background as good as Eva’s.
So Eva had always wanted to excel in certain areas.
In this regard, considering Mandel’s success at such a young age and his prominent family background, it was quite normal that Eva would harbor feelings for Mandel.
“That’s good,” Mandel nodded slightly, then continued, “Regarding the game adaptation copyright fee for the manga ‘Absolute Confidentiality,’ what’s your expected price?”
Upon hearing this, Isla Astir thought for a moment, “Actually, I’ve never thought that this manga could be turned into a game. So…”
So, she never thought about how much this manga could sell for.
“Why?” Mandel was somewhat curious.
Isla continued, “‘Absolute Confidentiality’ was my first manga. At that time, I had the mentality of just trying it out. Many foreshadowing elements hadn’t been developed yet, and the plot wasn’t very tight. So when your secretary approached me, I was quite surprised.”
