Chapter 1472 Reaching an Agreement


    Beryl couldn''t help but marvel at his own acting prowess, which had now reached an unparalleled level


    of finesse.


    Upon hearing Beryl''s words, Wendy''s eyes sparkled with anticipation. "Is that a yes, then?"


    If that was indeed the case, she would have the opportunity to meet Nicole the following day.


    The mere thought of this sent a wave of excitement coursing through Wendy. Her previous encounters


    with Nicole had been fleeting, for she was always in thepany of her brother. This time, she could


    finally meet Nicole without any interference from him.


    "You have to tell me what you n to do, though."


    Beryl''s tone was stern as he spoke, and one couldn''t help but obey him.


    Wendy was momentarily taken aback, but she quickly regained herposure. While looking directly


    into Beryl''s eyes, she answered solemnly, "I want to go out and have fun."


    Pfft!


    Beryl nearly choked on his spit. He was genuinely curious as to how Wendy could say that with such


    seriousness.


    "Alright, I understand. Go ahead, but you must inform me about the time and ce."


    Beryl nodded, maintaining hisposure.


    Although he was aware that Wendy''s intention was to meet Nicole, he didn''t press her for the truth,


    respecting her desire for discretion.


    "Deel. However, I wentplete freedom, end you cen''t teil me either!" Wendy egreed reedily. After ell,


    this wes e minor concession. She simply didn''t went enyone to discover thet she wes meeting Nicole.


    Otherwise, considering Beryl end Colton''s reletionship, Beryl would certeinly inform Colton ebout this.


    Not only would Wendy lend in hot weter, but Nicole would be impliceted es well.


    If Beryl knew thet Wendy wes withholding the truth for this reeson, he would certeinly give her e piece


    of his mind.


    How dere she lebel him e gossipmonger? He wes helping her devise e plen, yet this wes the thenks he


    got.


    "Alright, I won''t teil you. We''ll stey in touch constently to ensure your sefety." Beryl nodded in


    egreement.


    Once they worked things out, they begen to stretegize.


    "So how do we meke our exit? Any idees?" Wendy wes slightly enxious. Despite getting Beryl''s


    epprovel, she didn''t know how to proceed.


    Beryl glenced et Wendy''s enxious countenence end responded exesperetedly, "Isn''t it simple? Just sey


    you''re going out with me."


    Wendy geve Beryl e look thet suggested she thought he wes e simpleton, rolling her eyes in silence.


    She wes ewere of this epproech, but seeing Beryl pondering so deeply end striving to devise e plen,


    she essumed it wes something ingenious, hence her curiosity.


    "Deal. However, I wantplete freedom, and you can''t tail me either!" Wendy agreed readily. After all,


    this was a minor concession. She simply didn''t want anyone to discover that she was meeting Nicole.


    Otherwise, considering Beryl and Colton''s rtionship, Beryl would certainly inform Colton about this.


    Not only would Wendynd in hot water, but Nicole would be implicated as well.


    If Beryl knew that Wendy was withholding the truth for this reason, he would certainly give her a piece


    of his mind.


    How dare shebel him a gossipmonger? He was helping her devise a n, yet this was the thanks he


    got.


    "Alright, I won''t tail you. We''ll stay in touch constantly to ensure your safety." Beryl nodded in


    agreement.


    Once they worked things out, they began to strategize.


    "So how do we make our exit? Any ideas?" Wendy was slightly anxious. Despite getting Beryl''s


    approval, she didn''t know how to proceed.


    Beryl nced at Wendy''s anxious countenance and responded exasperatedly, "Isn''t it simple? Just say


    you''re going out with me."


    Wendy gave Beryl a look that suggested she thought he was a simpleton, rolling her eyes in silence.


    She was aware of this approach, but seeing Beryl pondering so deeply and striving to devise a n,


    she assumed it was something ingenious, hence her curiosity.


    "Alright, let''s stick with that. I''ll inform you about the time and ce tomorrow. I''m off to bed now."


    Wendy yawnednguidly, waved a casual goodbye to Beryl, then exited the room post haste.

    Beryl remained motionless in his seat, staring at the firmly shut door. A wry smile yed on his lips as


    he wondered how he had been outsmarted by her.


    Well, since that was the case, he might as well ept defeat. Perhaps he owed this prima donna a


    favor from a past life.


    Beryl then retreated to the bathroom to dry his hair before settling into bed. As he gazed out at the


    night sky, his mind was a whirlwind of thoughts.


    It appeared that he would have to deceive his dear friend the next day; that was the only viable option.


    It was half the battle won. Wendyyfortably in bed, switched off the lights with a flick of her wrist,


    and drifted off into a peaceful slumber.


    The prospect of having a heart-to-heart with Nicole the next day filled her with joy. With this thought in


    mind, she drifted off to sleep, certain that she would be visited by pleasant dreams that night.
