Katherine heard a voice of a male coming from the gate of the yard.
She slowly glanced at the gate and saw a person standing there.
In the pristine snow, a man dressed in gray clothes stood.
The man had deep facial features, a prominent nose, and dark brown eyes that smiled.
He was standing at the door, carrying a black umbrella, and staring at her.
Katherine wiped off the snow on her clothes and raised her eyebrows at the man, and asked.
"Are you talking to me?"
"I'm sorry, Miss...My name is Anthony, and I'm your neighbor.The internet in my house unexpectedly
went down, and I have an urgent need for it.Can you be so kind to let me use the internet from your
house for a few minutes?"
The man looked at Katherine and spoke English fluently.
Katherine gently smiled as she curved her lips.
"Drive five kilometers from here to the plaza, and you'll be able to get to a coffee shop that has wifi.''
The man was quite good-looking.
But she still refused as he was still a stranger.
Anthony was stunned for a moment.After that, he smiled and said.
"I'm sorry for being too hasty.Thanks for the direction, Miss"
Katherine silently stood as she watched the man leave and blend with the surroundings with a smile.
Katherine did not think too much of the sudden turn of events.
But a few days later, she met him again.
It was at Alice's birthday party, where she was destined to meet him again.
Katherine arrived at a later time.
When she finally reached the venue for the party, there were already many guests that arrived before
her.
Alice wore a fitted silver dress.
Her look resembled a classic yet cold style, which was lovely for her special day.
Alice saw and ran with her high heels on to intercept Katherine.
"You're finally here, Katherine!" Alice said in a joyous tone.
Katherine was greeted with a hug by her friend when she finally reached the venue.
The hug gave her enough warmth for the so-called cold to disappear.
Helen, who was not that far away, was too embarrassed to watch them.
Fortunately, everyone present at the venue was an acquaintance of Alice.
Katherine handed her a gift as she greeted Alice with a smile.
"Happy birthday, beautiful girl!"
"Thank you, baby, you didn't have to!"
Alice replied in surprise.
Alice wanted to kiss Katherine, but Katherine avoided that at all cost.
Alice smiled as she pulled Katherine inside, ignoring the fact that she avoided kissing her.
"Let's go, Katherine” you have to come inside quickly, there's a handsome guy today, and I'll introduce
you to him.
As Alice was talking, she looked at Katherine and said that.
"You understand, right?"
Katherine smiled at her friend's scheme and replied.
"What are you up to this time?"
As she spoke, Alice brought Katherine and introduced her to Anthony.
"Come here, let me introduce you to someone.This is Luke's university classmate.His name is Anthony
Jordan! Very handsome, right?"
"Anthony, this is my best friend! Her name is Katherine!" Alice said.
Katherine getting surprised was a rare instance, but she quickly recovered.
She looked at Anthony and smiled.
"What a coincidence, Mr.Jordan ‘’ Katherine said as she reached out for a handshake.
"A coincidence, indeed, Ms.Wilson’’ Anthony replied, shaking Katherine's hand.
Anthony's lips curved.
A gentle smile could be seen in his deep eyes.
Well, he was probably a very friendly man.
Alice clicked her tongue and said, "Do you know each other?"
"Neighbors” Katherine replied.
Alice's wave of lustful thoughts came to an end as a result of what Katherine said.
Alice took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
"So, Anthony is your next-door neighbor who doesn't seem to mind about money and their villa and
becoming moldy?"
Katherine was speechless at what Alice had said.
"Shut up! How can you say such things in front of other people?" Katherine scolded her
