Chapter 65: Karise’s Apology

“Karise?” Shantelle said, seeing her best

friend arrive at the doorway of their old mansion. She leaned back and asked, “How

“That you are here?” Karise replied. “Keith

told me.”

Shantelle smiled weakly and embraced her friend, saying, “We are having a picnic lunch. Why don’t you join us for dessert?”

“Picnic lunch? With whom?” Karise asked.

Shantelle first pursed her lips. Then she shrugged and revealed, “With the
