Nyla shook her head. "Even if I moved in with you, it would only be a temporary escape. Sooner or later, they'd find a way to show up again. Plus, I need to ask my senior some questions for my exam prep, so heading to Capitarnia is a good idea." Seeing her resolve, Valarie didn't push further. After all, moving to Capitarnia was probably better than staying here and dealing with constant harassment.

Valarie sighed. "Alright then. I'm just going to miss you,

Noticing Valarie's sad expression, Nyla felt a twinge of sadness as well. She never imagined she'd be

f moving to another city, let alone going back to studying.

"Don't be sad. If you miss me, just video call anytime or come visit me," she comforted.

Valarie sighed again. "I guess that's all I can do. Let me help you pack."

They spent the entire afternoon packing.

By evening, Nyla had sorted everything into two piles-things to take and things to leave behind.

"That's enough for today. Let's go. Dinner's on me," Nyla said.

Valarie didn't hesitate, immediately suggesting a fancy restaurant.

They drove separately to the location.

As they parked, Nyla unexpectedly ran into Oliver.

"Ms. Jayston, what a surprise to see you here!" Oliver exclaimed, looking excited.

Whether it was the lighting or Nyla's imagination, he seemed... a little flushed.

Nyla gave him a polite smile. "Mr. Raynor, are you here for dinner?"

"I'm meeting a client. I didn't get the chance to ask for your contact info at Valarie's birthday party. Would you mind if we exchanged numbers?" His voice was gentle, and the look in his eyes hinted at hope. "Of course," Nyla replied.

They exchanged numbers, and Oliver went ahead to meet his client.

As Valarie walked up, she noticed Oliver's back as he entered the restaurant. "Why does that guy's back Jook familiar?"

Nyla raised an eyebrow. "That's your ex-classmate. You introduced him to me at your birthday party, remember?"

"Oh right, that's Oliver! I knew he looked familiar. I was actually thinking about setting you up with him," Valarie said.

"I'm not interested in a relationship right now," Nyla replied.

"I know, but you could at least start as friends. Don't let Oliver's looks fool you-his family is actually

pretty well-off. They run a business in Capitarnia, and he's only here to gain some experience. He might even head back to take over the family business in a few years," Valarie elaborated.

Nyla couldn't help but laugh. "Do you think he'd be interested in me in that case?"

"Of course! You're gorgeous. If I were a guy, I'd be head over heels for you." Valarie playfully pinched Nyla's cheek, her expression mischievous.

Nyla shot her a look. "Thanks, but looks are the least valuable thing. If you rely on your appearance to attract men, you'll end up losing. I won't always be 18, but there will always be younger girls around." Valarie replied, "I was just joking, but actually..."

Seeing Valarie hesitate, Nyla frowned. "What is it? Spit it out."

After a moment of indecision, Valarie chose not to tell Nyla that Oliver had asked her to introduce them.

Judging by Nyla's attitude, she clearly wasn't interested in pursuing anything with him. It was better to let things unfold naturally.

If they were meant to be, the universe would bring them together eventually.

Valarie decided to simply say, "Nothing, really. I'm just starving. Let's get inside-I could eat a whole cow right now!"
