The waiter brought us drinks, fruits, and some grilled meats.
I guided Mia to the small living room where the rest of usdies gathered, while the gentlemen indulged in drinks.
Since their arrival, Ross and As had been talking nonstop.
Ivanna nced at Trinity and remarked, "No wonder you''ve softened and be more feminine. Looks like your boyfriend is quite the charmer." Trinity shot Ivanna a look. "Are you interested again?"
We all turned to look as Ivanna replied nonchntly, "Don''t tter yourself. He doesn''t suit me, and I know what I want. Jared is enough for me, and I''m unwavering to the end."
"That''s quite the personality. No wonder Jared is somitted," Trinitymented.
"I love hearing that I''ve got charm too. But..." Ivanna deliberately trailed off, looking at Ross. "Your man, though..."
"What about him?" Trinity asked Ivanna.
"He''s better for you than Jared," Ivanna eximed breathlessly. "Jared suits me perfectly."
As soon as she said that, we all burst intoughter. Trinity even blushed a little.
"It seems women are at their most beautiful when they''re in love. Look at her, she''s blushing. It''s clear she''s fallen in love," Ivanna said.
Trinity looked at Ivanna disdainfully. "You''re going too far, making it seem like I''ve never experienced true love."
"Has no one told you that you''ve changed a lot? You''ve be more feminine. Love really does soften even the toughest hearts," Ivanna remarked shamelessly.
"You''re going too far. It''s not like I wasn''t feminine before," Trinity protested.
Ivanna immediately looked at the rest of us for confirmation. "Can any of you honestly say she seemed girly before?"
We all chuckled, and I quickly said, "Ivanna''s right, Trinity. You used to be sharp and cold..."
"And heartless," Ivanna added, "But no one dared say it to your face."
"How dare you say that now?" Trinity said coldly. But she had a smile on her face.
"Even if I disregard everything else
I''m still your friend, right? I can say a few things about you. What can you do about it? You can''t deny it. In fact, you secretly enjoy it.
"I''m the kind of person you never expected, right? Otherwise, why would Chloe and I have gotten along so well over the years?" "She''s just biased toward you," Trinity scoffed.
Mia looked at Trinity and softly said, "You''ve really changed."
Our conversation flowed smoothly, and the gentlemen seemed to be getting along well too.
I nced at them asionally. Their gathering could easily be the most upscale private party in Foswood.
Ernest seemed to be the weakest among them. As and Oliver''s influence were self-exnatory, while Ross''s status was unmistakable.
Even though he was just the eldest
of the younger generation in the
Av family, his worth was
et
undoubtedly high, far surpassing Ernest''s. Jared belonged to the top echelons of the covert profession, a league beyond Ernest''s reach.

But Ernest seemed determined. He was currently engrossed in conversation with Oliver, who remained calm andposed.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
Ross and As got along well. Jared was standing with them, and they were each holding a ss.
I looked away as Mia sat beside me, asking, "How are you feeling? Any more pregnancy symptoms?"
"Basically none, and everything''s
normal." nced at Ivanna and told
Mia, "Ivanna had severe morning sickness. She''d throw up whatever she ate. It was really tough for her."
Swno
Trinity looked at Ivanna and asked, "How much longer until ites out?"
Ivanna immediately looked at Trinity and chuckled. "Why are you saying it like that?"
She caressed her stomach exaggeratedly and looked at Trinity, asking, "What''sing out?"
"Your baby!" Trinity said disdainfully. "What else could it be?"
We allughed, and Mia looked at the two of them, bluntly asking, "When did you two be so close?"
Trinity immediately asked Mia, "When haven''t we been close?"
Ivanna chimed in, "Exactly. We''ve always admired and cared for each other."
