Upon further observation, Ysabelle dismissed the possibility of Nicholas being a fellow student.

He just did not seem like a varsity student.

Nicholas replied, “Nah. I just wanted to visit the university. I’d love to study here if I have the chance.”

He had an answer ready for every question that came his way.

“I see!” Ysabelle remained unconvinced.

Cafeteria food was a whole new experience for Nicholas, who had spent his life eating the finest dishes and meals designed specifically for his nutritional balance.

Still, he would happily gorge on cafeteria food if it gave him the opportunity to have dinner with Sophie.

He stared so blatantly at Sophie that it was difficult for others not to notice.

Ysabelle whispered beside her friend’s ear, “He’s just staring at you.”

“I know. Just ignore him,” muttered Sophie before returning her attention to her meal.

Nicholas shrugged off her indifference. It did not stop him from achieving his goal of sharing a meal with her.

A short while later, Sophie and Ysabelle cleaned off their plates and stood up to leave.

Instead of following them, Nicholas continued eating his meal.

The food somehow tasted more delicious and was more bearable on the palate.

Ysabelle’s mind was still on Nicholas when she left the cafeteria. She commented, “Hey Sophie, that guy we met earlier is pretty handsome. He’ll be quite popular if he joins the entertainment industry.”

“Sure.”

Sophie’s half-hearted reply directly correlated with her interest in discussing her stubborn admirer.

He’s definitely not going to join the entertainment industry.

The two young women left the cafeteria and immediately ran into Tristan and Felix.

Ysabelle pouted and asked, “Why didn’t you tell us you were coming? We already finished dinner.”

She regretted the missed opportunity for them to dine together.

Felix piped up, “It’s fine. We came to pick you up.”
