Chapter 663 - Dinner With Chloe
Due to the extreme exercise in bed last night, Lisa didn't have any more energy. When she opened her eyes, the clock on the wall showed 4 pm. She didn't wake up at lunch time even though her cell phone kept ringing.
Lisa only had time to read a short message sent by Oscar.
Oscar: Looks like you're still sleeping huh, haha. It's okay, just call me once you wake up later. I've had lunch, you should order food at the hotel restaurant instead.
Then, about an hour or two later, Oscar returned to texting her.
Oscar: Are you still sleeping?
Not only short messages filled Lisa's notifications, missed calls also enlivened her cellphone. Lisa shook her head and replied to the man's message even more briefly.
Lisa: Sorry I just woke up
After sending that message, she got out of bed and stretched her body. Without needing to look in the mirror, she already knew that her appearance must look messy. Starting from her neck filled with bite marks to her swollen lips.
The woman rushed to take a shower and get ready because she knew Oscar would be coming with William soon.
About half an hour later, Lisa came out of the bathroom with wet hair. She only covered her body with a bathrobe, and her hands were busy drying her hair that was starting to get long.
Before she could sit on the bed, she heard the ringing of her cell phone.
"Hello?"
"Where are you? I'll pick you up now." Oscar replied. When he got a curt reply from Lisa, the man hurriedly finished his work and headed for the Alpaca Hotel.
Hearing this, Lisa immediately panicked. Since she was alone in the large room, the woman didn't care and quickly took off her bathrobe. While wearing the clothes from yesterday, the woman answered.
"Of course I'm still at the hotel! You don't have to go in, just meet me at the entrance!"
There was a commotion from the surrounding noise and not long after the sound of something falling made Oscar realize that the woman wasn't ready. The man chuckled.
"Ok, I will pick you up maybe..." Oscar glanced at the clock on the dashboard and continued, "In 10 minutes?"
Lisa put her wet towel on the bathroom's sink and couldn't really hear Oscar's reply. She could only hear him say that he would be coming soon!
"Ugh… yeah! I'll go to the front entrance!"
After that Lisa disconnected their phone and quickly packed up her things. She smoothed her hair, put on some light makeup, and put her sneakers back on. When the woman came out and almost closed the bedroom door, she realized that her tote bag was left inside!
Even though Lisa knew that Oscar would be fine even if he had to wait longer in front of the hotel, she still felt bad. Now she looked worse than an employee trying to catch the last train. With her shoes still on and her hair slightly damp the woman pressed the down button for the elevator.
And sure enough, just like what she feared, she had seen Oscar standing in the hotel lobby. The man was already in a suit, with his golden yellow hair neatly slicked back.
Compared to Oscar who looked neat and charming, Lisa looked like she had just pulled an all-nighter.
After handing the key to the receptionist, Lisa walked over to Oscar while combing her hair with her hands.
"Just finished showering?" Oscar teased while gesturing as if he wanted to take Lisa's tote bag.
Lisa shook her head, "Yeah, I just woke up."
Oscar and Lisa walked out of the hotel side by side. When the man's white car came into view, he walked ahead of Lisa and opened the front door for her.
Seeing that made the corners of Lisa's lips lift up and without realizing it, she rolled her eyes. With a flowery feeling, she sat in the driver's seat and fastened her seat belt.
It wasn't long before Oscar caught up with her and sat down beside her. The man followed what Lisa did— Putting on a seatbelt then glanced at her before he started the car and stepped on the gas.
"Where are we going?"
Oscar moistened his lips, "I told you I'd like to take you and William out for lunch. But you overslept, so I postponed it. When I called Chloe and said I wanted to pick up William, she said they had reserved a table for us to have dinner with."
"Oh?" Of course hearing that surprised Lisa. "Okay."
Yesterday, she had been rude and accused Oscar and Chloe of being a couple. Come to think of it, Lisa thinks herself as really stupid! How could Chloe and Oscar be dating if their faces really looked like siblings?
Just thinking about what happened yesterday made Lisa feel uncomfortable. She couldn't imagine what would happen if she and Chloe had to sit face to face at the same table.
Hearing Lisa's short reply made Oscar raise his eyebrows. Just as the white car stopped at a red light, he turned and touched Lisa's thigh.
"You don't have to worry like that. Chloe is a nice person, she won't embarrass you or make fun of you. Her attitude might seem a little arrogant, but she's actually good. The proof is that William likes her. You know William is not the type of kid who can like other people easily."
Lisa knew that Oscar said that just to calm her down. But deep in her heart, she was still panicking and wishing Chloe suddenly canceled their dinner!
"Eh, you have other siblings besides Chloe, don't you? Who knows they will come here and you haven't had time to introduce me to them? Don't let yesterday's embarrassing incident happen again!"
Hearing that made Oscar smile a little, "No. I only have one sister."
"Thank god...!" Lisa replied in relief while stroking her chest.
Yesterday was really the most embarrassing incident Lisa had ever experienced. If she could, she'd turn back time and take back every single mean word she'd said to Chloe and Oscar!
