Every time she finished her meal, she had to support herself against the wall. How could she not get fat? ‘It's all his fault, ‘ she thought, pinching her cheeks again.

“I'm so relieved to know that you guys are getting along well! Thank

God," Rhea chuckled. She finally turned to Hyatt and said, “It's been awhile, Hyatt!"

With a shy smile, he scratched the back of his head and asked, "Hi,

Rhea. Why are you here anyway?"

"I've missed you two so much! So I flew down here as soon as I could!

Mrs. Erica, the air ticket was so damn expensive. You better treat me to dinner to make up for my aching heart."

Erica held Rhea's arm and said, "No problem! Matthew is on a business trip. I can keep you company all day long.”

"Oh? Are you saying that if Matthew were at home, you wouldn't keep me company?" Rhea asked, feigning anger and pouting at her best friend.

With a hint of shyness in her smile, Erica shook Rhea‘s arm.

“I didn't mean it Like that. Stop teasing me!"

The two burst into Laughter.

Erica and Hyatt took Rhea on a tour of their school. Before leaving the place, Erica called Matthew.

Matthew was in a meeting when his phone vibrated. He was about to ignore the call, but seeing the caller ID, he quickly swiped the answer key.

“Yes?”

“Matthew! Are you busy?"

He glanced at the dozen or so people around him, talking about important work matters, then stood up from his seat and walked aside.

“No,” he answered.

“Oh good! I called to ask you something. Can I bring my friend along to stay in our villa?"

"Which friend is this?"

"It's Rhea!" Matthew knew Rhea. She was Erica's bridesmaid for their wedding.

He didn't like others staying in his villa, but since she was a good friend of Erica's, he agreed.

"Okay."

Erica was thrilled.

"Yes! You're the best, Matthew!" Before making the call, she was worried that Matthew wouldn't agree and that she would have to stay in a hotel with Rhea.
