Chapter 227 Truth or Dare
“Dear, wake up. Do you think he will disappear from your side?”NôvelDrama.Org content.
“Now your two jobs have connections with him, and he lives next door to you.”
Nina was truly a very conscientious friend. In just a few words, she helped Emelia understand reality.
Emelia was incomparably exhausted. “Thank you for your reminder.”
Nina chuckled. “Actually, there’s nothing to worry about. Just ignore him and see how thick his skin is.”
Emelia was speechless.
In the evening, Emelia went to Ezra’s restaurant for dinner party. She thought it was just an ordinary meal, but she didn’t expect Ezra to suggest them play Truth or Dare.
They were still there for dinner, but Jean didn’t attend tonight. She said that there was another party.
Arthur did come, but his was obviously not in the mood.
Ezra suggested using the method of turning the bottle to play truth or dare. Where the mouth of the bottle went, the people would accept the challenged.
Emelia was unfamiliar with games. However, it was Nina who clapped her hands excitedly and cheered, “Mr. Cantillo is indeed someone who knows how to play. Come, come, turn the bottle around.”
Nina was also a party animal. She liked people and noise, completely different from the calm and quiet Cameron Dauster.
The rest of the people present agreed to play the game. Emelia didn’t want to play, so she had to bite the bullet.
It was easy for those who lost at the beginning to be asked questions or asked to take a risk. At the beginning, Emelia lost once, Ezra asked, “What’s the happiest thing in the past week?”
Emelia answered honestly, “To reunite with my father.”
Her answer was heart-warming and true.
In the next round, Julian lost once. Ezra asked with a wicked smile, “Three people or three things that you’re most afraid of.”
Julian glanced at Emelia, then said, “The three people I’m afraid of the most are Emelia, Emelia, and Emelia.”
Emelia rolled her eyes.
Wasn’t it supposed to be three people? It made her looked like a villain
Also, what was there to be afraid of?
He was the one who made her afraid, okay?
She used to be so afraid of him. She was afraid that he would be unhappy and that he did not like her…
When she thought of this, the expression on Emelia’s face suddenly froze. Julian spoke her name three times. Could it be that they were referring to these things as well?
He was afraid that she would be angry, unhappy, and ignore him.
After Julian finished speaking, Ezra took the lead in laughing out loud.
Emelia glared angrily at Julian, warning him not to talk to her again if he lost.
Nina was asked, “Use four words to describe your current state of life.”
Nina replied with her hands on her cheeks, “I miss Cameron Dauster.”
Everyone was speechless.
The reason why Nina was able to speak out the name “Cameron Dauster” in front of everyone was because she knew that these people would keep it a secret for her.
When Ezra lost, he was asked, “What does love meant in your life?”
The person who asked this question was Emelia. As for why Emelia asked so sharply, it was to revenge, because the question that Ezra had asked Julian just now was obviously to pave the way for Julian to joke at her. She wanted to take revenge on Ezra and Julian together.
Secondly, Emelia really wanted to know how a rich playboy like Ezra would treat love.
Also, she had a vague feeling that the person in Maisie’s heart was very likely to be him.
That day, after the chat with Maisie, Emelia made a speculation on who Maisie’s lover was. She did not have the hobby of inquiring about other people’s privacy. But she was worried about Maisie’s emotional life because she really regarded Maisie as a friend.
Maisie was a good girl. Emelia didn’t want Maisie to get hurt like her in the future.
She had the most say in the feeling of being hurt by love. If possible, she hoped that her good friends would not experience this.
Emelia felt that Maisie was a proud person. Her lover was definitely not an ordinary man.
She thought of the last time they had a gathering at Julian’s house. When Maisie said that she would leave, Ezra, who had wanted to stay for the night, also left.
Therefore, at this moment, Emelia asked Ezra such a question, which could be regarded as a question for Maisie. It could also be regarded as a secret bet. Was Maisie’s lover really Ezra?
Ezra was a little surprised when he was asked this question. It seemed that he did not expect that Emelia, who had been quiet, would throw him such a sharp question.
He instinctively glanced in the direction of Maisie, and then replied with a smile, “It’s not essential.”
In almost an instant, Emelia caught a glimpse of the gloom at the bottom of Maisie’s eyes. She was almost certain that Maisie’s lover was Ezra.
For a moment, Emelia didn’t know whether to feel sorry for Maisie or what to do. Falling in love with someone like Ezra who said love was not essential, Maisie was destined to be hurt.
Emelia pursed her lips, stared at Ezra, and asked again, “Mr. Cantillo, although this is a game, we will take it seriously, so you must answer honestly”
“Is love really not essential in your life?”
Ezra still smiled casually. “Of course.”
Emelia was a little powerless. She nodded gently. “Alright, I understand.”
If possible, Emelia hoped that Maisie would be able to leave in time after hearing Ezra’s words tonight.
After this episode, the game continued.
Several rounds later, the bottle’s mouth was aimed at Emelia. Emelia was asked, “If you could return to the past, what would you want to do the most?”
This was what Nina asked Emelia.
Not only was Ezra to pave the way for Julian, but Nina, Emelia’s best friend also had a tacit understanding.
Ezra paved the way for Julian, allowing Julian to indirectly express his love for Emelia.
She could also pave the way for Emelia and let her say something what Julian disliked to hear.
Sure enough, Emelia replied with a serious look, “If I could go back to the past, I wouldn’t have fallen in love and gotten married. I would’ve focused on my career earlier.”
Julian’s face immediately darkened, and his cold gaze shot towards Nina. Nina gave him an extremely innocent look.
She seemed to be telling Julian, “Don’t play games if you can’t afford it.”
Seeing that Julian was staring at Nina from afar, however, she didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with her answer. Wasn’t it a Truth or Dare game? Then she was telling the truth.
After that, Nina was asked, “What is the intimate thing you’ve done with someone you like?”
Nina replied, “Making love.”
As the person involved, Nina was very calm, but the nearby Emelia could no longer remain calm.
She grabbed Nina and asked in a low voice in disbelief, “Did you and Cameron…?”
Nina and Cameron were separated by Mrs. Dauster in the summer vacation after they graduated from high school. When did it happen?
