Chapter 686
Arielle was glad that she wouldn't have to see Donovan, as she didn’t have his class that day. But apparently, luck decided to joke
with her.
So unlucky of me!
Despite feeling disdainful, she had to force a smile. “Good evening, Mr. Baxter.”
Donovan felt his heart race uncontrollably upon taking in her smile.
Instantly, a bad feeling settled at the pit of his stomach, causing him to frown deeper.
Meanwhile, Queenie, who heard their conversation, was surprised as well. “Do you know each other?”
Donovan glanced at Queenie in stun before explaining, “She’s my student. You know her?”

“Oh, so she’s your student.” Queenie didn’t answer his question. Instead, she said, “Seemingly, we're fated to meet, Ms. Moore.”
Arielle smiled. “I didn’t know that you chere together. In that case, please excuse me.”
Before Queenie could nod, Donovan interrupted in a cold voice, “You live alone, so why did you buy so many vegetables?”
Apparently, the pile of vegetables in Arielle’s shopping cart didn’t go unnoticed.
Hearing that, Arielle couldn't help but feel hilarious. What the hell! It has nothing to do with you, so why bother?
Yet, she could only let out a small huff. “I've invited my friends to cover to my new house to have a meal together.”
Queenie had seen the announcement of Arielle getting chased out by the Southalls when she investigated Arielle. Thus, she said
discreetly, “Congratulations for moving into your new house.”
“Thank you.” Arielle nodded.
Before she could leave, Donovan once again stopped her. “If so, it's merrier to have more people. Since Queenie and | are free
now, can we join you guys? I'll treat it as a hvisit then.”
Arielle couldn't help but widen her eyes in disbelief.
A thought immediately cto her mind. What a shameless man!
Shock painted Queenie’s face as well.
He still called“Ms. Mill” when we were on our way here, so why am | “Queenie” now? Moreover, are we free? Aren't we
supposed to bring the ketchup hlater?
All of a sudden, Queenie sensed something fishy.
It is undeniable that Arielle’s face could attract a man at ease. However, they are teacher and student. Isn't it inappropriate for a
teacher to fall for his student? Moreover, he is having a blind date withnow. So, he likes Arielle? Am | overthinking?
Queenie decided to stop pondering and nodded. “Yes, we have nothing to do at the moment. But, are we disturbing you?”

Up until that point, Arielle had no choice but to suppress her discomfort and nod. “Don’t worry. What do you want to eat?”
“I'm fine with anything,” Queenie said in a carefree manner, and Donovan remained silent.
“In that case, I'll get more ingredients.” With that said, she quickly headed toward the vegetables section, leaving them behind.
Just as she was busy cursing her luck internally, Trisha and the others cover.
Henry instantly uttered, “Boss, we saw Donovan Baxter just now.”
Arielle nodded. “He even invited himself to the dinner. Just bear with him for now.”
“Damn! The hell with the hvisit! We're in university now! I'm pretty sure that he's targeting you. Oh, wait! It's all of us who got
enrolled with a connection that he targets.” Henry then looked at Trisha
and continued, “Don’t worry about getting targeted by him, Trishee. He would surely fawn over you since you're a good student.”
Trisha blushed at the nicknand corrected him. “I'm Trisha.”
“Well, it's only a nickname.”
At that moment, Queenie and Donovan approached them
