    Chapter 883


    The boy’s face was stered with a surprise he couldn’t hide as he scratched his head shyly, “Ellinor,


    is that really you? I thought I spotted you from outside, so I thought I’d pop in. I haven’t seen you since


    you graduated and left school.”


    Ellinor recognized him. He was a student from Creston University named Moran.


    Ellinor nodded back politely, “Long time no see. Are you here for shopping?”


    Moran shook his head, “Nah! I’ve been part-time tutoringtely and dropping off flyers at nearby


    schools. I was feeling a bit hungry and thought I’d check out a fast food joint and grab a bite, then carry


    on with the flyers.”


    Ellinor smiled faintly, “Sounds like a tough gig.”


    Truth be told, she didn’t know Moran that well. But he stood out because he was easy on the eyes,


    smart, good at basketball, and somehow always ended up in her line of sight.


    On graduation day, out of the blue, he gave her a button as a keepsake.


    Originally, Ellinor hadn’t nned on sharing a meal with Moran. After all, he was guy, and they weren’t


    exactly close. There was no need.


    But then she caught a glimpse of Veronica across the table, blushing at Moran’s appearance and


    looking all flustered.


    Oh! She suddenly remembered that Veronica had a crush on Moran and even wrote him a love letter.


    But she’d heard that Moran rejected Veronica.


    A hint of a smirk yed on Ellinor’s face, and she changed her mind, “Moran, why don’t you sit down


    and grab a bite with us? It’s not every day that we run into each other. Dinner is on me.”


    Moran had always put Ellinor on a pedestal. He was over the moon when he heard his crush’s offer to


    treat him to dinner, “Really?”


    Ellinor grinned, “Of course! You can sit right there!”


    With that, she jerked her chin towards Veronica’s side.


    With a nod of delight, Moran was about to sit down when he realized who was sitting across from him.


    “Veronica?”


    Veronica, whose face was flushed, stared at him, “Moran…”


    Moran chuckled, “Veronica, so you know Ellinor!”


    Veronica shyly nodded; her usual assertiveness waspletely absent. She sat there like a good,


    gentle, and soft girl. Girls always put their best foot forward in front of their crushes.


    Ellinor smirked after noticing Veronica’splete transformation, and she called the waiter over to


    order more food.


    Veronica was flustered due to Moran’s presence, and Moran too was a little shy due to Ellinor. Both of


    them were blushing.


    Ellinor was unaffected and her appetite was still strong, so she chatted with Moran as she ate, “How’s


    the job going? I guess tutoring pays well?”


    Moran, a bit bashful, scratched the back of his head, “I’m just handing out flyers right now; I haven’t got


    any tutees yet.”


    Ellinor’s eyes narrowed a bit as she took a nce at Veronica, who was quietly nibbling her food.


    Suddenly, an idea popped into her head.


    “How much do you charge for tutoring?”


    “I’m new, so $30 an hour.”

    “Hmm, not a bad rate.”


    When Theo arrived, he recognized the male student right away as the one who gave Ellinor the second


    button, causing his face to instantly sour.
