Chapter 930
Maria held her cup of fruit tea, sipping slowly, her expression calm as she replied, "Don't joke around like that. What if your brother already has someone he likes?"
"He doesn't! I can guarantee that!" Tiana immediately countered. "He's a total blockhead. There was once a girl who tried to pursue him, and he asked her how she did on her physics exam. I couldn't believe it!" The girls around burst out laughing.
"Wait, so what? Does she need to outscore him in physics for him to even consider her?" one of the girls teased.
Tiana rolled her eyes. "No, no! If she did better than him, he'd start giving her the problems he couldn't solve. If she didn't, well, she wasn't even qualified to help him solve anything."NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"Wow, sounds like your brother's pretty tough to deal with," someone remarked.
Tiana waved it off. "That was years ago. He's grown up now-he's not like that anymore."
The group fell silent for a moment, absorbing the absurdity of Tiana's brother.
By 3 PM, the plane landed.
The girls were already at the airport, waiting in the arrivals hall.
Tiana, still enthusiastically highlighting her brother's virtues to Maria, suddenly turned and spotted a tall man emerging from the exit.
"Over here, bro!" she shouted, waving energetically.
Herman Evans, with a small suitcase in one hand, dressed in a casual jacket and wearing a warm smile, strode over to them.
"Tiana, you're here early."
Tiana replied with a smile, "Of course! You're finally back-I had to come early! Not only that, but I brought my girlfriends along to welcome you. See how much I care?" Herman's gaze swept over the group of girls, and he gave a polite nod. "Thanks."
"No need to be so formal. So, are you staying for good this time, Herman?" one of the girls asked.
Herman nodded. "Yeah, I'm back for good."
Tiana quickly chimed in, "Well, since we've been waiting here to greet you, don't you think you should treat us to lunch?"
Herman chuckled, shaking his head. "I should've known. Alright, what do you want to eat?"
Tiana's eyes lit up. "Let's go! I've already made reservations."
The group headed out of the airport and split into two cars. Tiana eagerly opened the door to the first car's Ckseat, gesturing for her brother to get in first.
Herman climbed into the car, and before Maria could react, Tiana grabbed her arm and pulled her toward the car. "Maria, you sit in this one." Maria sighed, feeling a bit helpless, but there wasn't much she could do.
Reluctantly, she climbed into the car.
Tiana glanced at her two other friends and said, "You two take the other car, okay?"
The two girls exchanged knowing looks, let out a light huff, and climbed into the other vehicle.
Meanwhile, Tiana slid into the
passenger seat, fastening her seatbelt while saying, "By the way, this is my friend Maria Conner She runs her own architecture design studio."
Herman extended his hand politely, "Nice to meet you, Ms. Conner."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Evans," Maria replied, shaking his hand briefly before pulling away.
Tiana watched the two through the rearview mirror, growing anxious at the lack of conversation. Her eyes gleamed with mischief, and she asked, "Bro, you've been abroad for
Y
years did you manage to get
yourself a girlfriend?"
Herman, unruffled, replied, "You seem so concerned about me. What about yourself? If I remember correctly, didn't Mom and Dad set up a date for you?" Flustered, Tiana protested, "We're talking about you right now! Don't change the subject!"
Herman chuckled softly. "I've been busy. No time for dating."
Tiana, refusing to let it go, smirked. "Well, this time you're in trouble. Mom and Dad are definitely going to arrange some blind dates for you too!"
