"This girl—why isn't she answering my calls?" Kathrine hissed, shoving her phone back into her pocket in irritation.
Standing in front of the mirror, she checked herself one last time, smoothing her outfit and taking a steadying breath before stepping out of her room.
The moment she lifted her gaze, she froze.
Sitting comfortably on the couch across the living hall was Stephane.
And seated opposite her were Hugo and Roseline.
Kathrine gulped. Her steps faltered, her breath hitching as anxiety surged through her veins. This was not how she had imagined her day unfolding. Not even close.
Someone who hadn't planned on having an adventurous day had somehow stumbled into one anyway—thanks to Stephane. Uninvited. Or rather… invited.
Because the calm expression on Hugo's face and the unusually warm smile Roseline was wearing told a very different story.
Kathrine's fingers trembled as she hurriedly fished her phone out again, thumbs flying across the screen.
