Chapter 11 Hostility


    Katherine did not go downstairs right away, but lied on the windowsill and stared into the ocean shore


    for a while. There must be a lot of preparation before the bonfire party. It was useless to show up now.


    Katherine grabbed her phone and took few selfies, then posted on her moments. She looked so perky


    and charming with a bright smile and her braided hair. She was in her best years, with such a youthful


    face, there’s no need for any photoshopping indeed. Katherine stared at her photos for a while and


    then turned off the phone.


    However, she knew, nobody would check her moments. She did not have any friend in her Facebook


    contact list. There used to be some of the Grant. But she wondered whether they had deleted her.


    She kept leaning against the windowsill till the darkness overwhelmed all and the beachside started


    getting riotous.


    She stretched and walked out unhurriedly.


    The banquet on the beach had already started, the hotel also set up a stage, men and women were


    dancing around, immersed in the cheers and whistles of audiences.


    The nearby area of the beach was all ced with tables and chairs, on top of them you could find all


    sorts of drink and snacks.


    Katherine came close and looked around. There were barely any empty seats for her. But Katherine did


    not hurry to find a seat, she was still walking aroundzily.


    A staff at the side saw her and came up to her, “Miss, are you alone? Please have a seat here.” He


    pointed at the table. Surprisingly, this table only have four women.


    Katherine nodded, “Thanks.”


    She walked to the table and sat down.


    Those women seemed like they all came here together, they looked at each other and continued their


    laughing and talking.


    Katherine did not feel any awkwardness. She poured herself a ss of wine and leaned back on her


    chair, sipping her drink slowly.


    But after a while, a man approached, obviously for Katherine.


    He held his wine ss and asked, “Hello, would you mind if I sit here?”


    Katherine turned around and looked up.


    Those women all flocked together, which made some room for her side.


    She raised her eyebrow, “I don’t mind”


    The man sat down and stared at the stage for a while then he started to strike up a conversation with


    her. “Are you here alone? I’ve seen you barely talk to anyone.”


    Katherine smiled, “Right, alone.”

    Other women at the table took a nce at her and then looked somewhere else in embarrassment.


    There’s a saying that same sex repels each other is quite reasonable. Especially among beautiful


    women, they would dislike each other for no reason at all.


    The man smiled. “What a coincidence, I’m alone as well. I came here to rx. But I did not think it


    would be this interesting. And they even held such a bonfire party.”


    Staring at the stage, Katherine did not reply.


    This table was a bit far from the stage, so she couldn’t see clearly the kind of dance they were


    performing.


    Thinking for a while, the man got closer to Katherine. “How long will you stay here? We’re both here


    alone. Maybe we could hang out tomorrow, what do you think?”


    Katherine took a look at him, smiled, but she didn’t say anything.


    Her phone was on the table facing down. It vibrated.


    Katherine took her phone and checked the message from Peter. It was only a request for sharing


    location, without any other words.


    She never yed with these kind of thing before, just saw two popped up options “Confirm” and


    “Cancel”. Originally she thought of cancelling, but then she thought of something when she tapped on


    the screen. So she eventually confirmed. Then her icon began to glint slowly. She did not know well


    about this function, so she put her cell phone back on the table.


    The man sitting next to her was still talking, “I’ve looked up on some of the traveling routes. There are


    some quite fascinating attractions worth visiting…”


    Katherine took her ss, “Cheers.”


    The man paused for a sec and nodded. Then he also held his ss to clink with hers.


    After a ss of wine, he poured her another ss. “How old are you? It seems that you’ve just


    graduated, so you’re traveling after the graduation?”


    Katherine raised her eyebrow, “Do I look like a student?” She said with a faint smile, her dimple


    showing vaguely.


    With his eyes fixed on Katherine’s face, the man was bewitched.
