“Um… good morning.”

She got up and headed toward the bathroom.

After she left, Zaden finally dared to lift the blanket. Fortunately, Athena had left just in time. Otherwise she might have discovered something else

…

After Athena finished washing up, she went to find the staff. She needed new bedding.

Zaden got dressed when his phone suddenly rang. He glanced at it. It was a call from Harriet.

He swiped to answer. “Hello.”

“How are things going with you and Athena at the summer camp? When is the production team starting the livestream? I’m dying over here!”

Harriet had sent Teri a message. But Teri hadn’t replied.

She wanted to know how things were going between Zaden and Athena, so she used the livestream as an excuse to pry.

“It starts today.”

Harriet made a sound of acknowledgment.

“Anything else?”

“No … nothing else, I guess. I’ll hang up then.” Harriet hadn’t gotten the information she wanted. She could only hang up in disappointment.

Just then, Zaden suddenly called out to stop her.

“Wait!”

“What’s up?”

Zaden was silent for a moment. Then he said flatly, “There’s something I wanted to ask you.”

“What is it? Go ahead and ask. I’ll tell you everything I know. I know Athena inside and out. So what do you want to know?”

Zaden paused, not knowing how to begin.

Harriet was dying of curiosity. She asked impatiently, “Come on, what do you want to ask? Is it

“Right, right! Your friend.” Harriet snorted inwardly. Usually when someone says ‘my friend, they mean themselves. Zaden was still trying to play it off.

Could it be that he had already realized he was falling for Athena?

Thinking about this, Harriet became as excited as a kid on Christmas morning.

She didn’t call him out on it. She continued asking. “Does your friend have feelings for her?”

Zaden didn’t respond.

Harriet thought maybe that question was too direct. She continued, “Come on, you have to tell me the situation so I can help!”

She was ready to ask Zaden directly if he liked Athena.

But she knew Zaden’s personality. He definitely wouldn’t admit to such things. It would be pointless.

Zaden suddenly smirked.

He raised his hand to rub his forehead, thinking he must be losing his mind.

“Never mind. I’m hanging up.”

Hearing Zaden was about to hang up, Harriet got anxious. “Wait, don’t hang up yet! What about your friend? Tell me more about him. Has he fallen head over heels for her?”

Zaden’s expression remained impassive. He asked back, “Have you won over Kit yet?”

Harriet was speechless.

Well, that shut her

He knew exactly how to end the conversation.

Zaden chuckled softly and said, “Good luck.”

Then he hung up without waiting for Harriet’s response.

Earlier, Harriet had asked if he liked Athena.

Did physical attraction count as liking someone?
