Chapter 1302: Ghost, and the Price of Making Cupcakes

Chapter 1301: Ghost, and the Price of Making Cupcakes

After playing for almost an hour, everybody gathered at the table again.

There was a limit to a person’s stamina. Apart from Luke, the stamina freak, the others were excited and exhausted.

Luke felt it was interesting to come here and let loose every now and then.

This was different from fighting. After all, the only BGM he had was a Buddhist chant that wasn’t for dancing, but for killing people.

When it was almost four in the morning, everybody got up and left.

Han sent Kelly home, and Luke had the club arrange a car for him and the two girls. In any case, it was just a small matter of adding another figure to the bill.

The car soon reached Williamsburg, and Luke escorted them into the building.

This was the sort of old apartment building that was very common in New York. One couldn’t say it was decrepit, but calling it run-down wouldn’t be an insult either.

After dropping the two girls off at the door and saying goodnight, Max finally couldn’t take it anymore. She turned around and glared at Caroline, who was still smiling foolishly behind her. “Didn’t you say that your bladder was about to explode from holding it in? Are you waiting to fight me to use the bathroom later? I still need to take a shower.”

Only then did Carol realize that she had become a third wheel. She waved at Luke with a smile and entered the apartment.

Only then did Max turn around with a smile. “Although you might not need it, I still have to thank you. Tonight was really awesome.”

Luke nodded. “No need; I enjoyed myself too.”

Max blushed and asked, “Really?”

Looking at her, Luke was tempted. He asked tentatively, “Caroline said that you like making cupcakes?”

Max said, “Of course. I made all the food you had tonight.”

Luke chuckled. “Then can I take a look?”

Max’s face froze. “What?”

Luke coughed and said, “Actually, I have a lot of experience in making cakes.”

After the initial shock, Max rolled her eyes. “Then why don’t you come in?”

Luke smiled brilliantly. “Sure, but don’t be too surprised. I’m very good at cooking.”

Max moved aside. “Talk is cheap.”

Luke entered the place, and Max closed the door.

At the same time, through the gap in the bathroom door, a pair of grayish-blue eyes stared at them.

…

At noon the next day, Caroline yawned in satisfaction and woke up.

Looking at the unfamiliar layout, she was puzzled for a second, before she suddenly threw off the blanket and ran out of Max’s room.

In the living room, she saw Max sleeping on her bed. She jumped on her and grabbed her shoulders. “Wake up, wake up.”

In the end, Max pushed her away. “Stop, I’m so tired. Let me sleep a while longer.”

But Caroline didn’t give up. “You wish. The two of you were so noisy in the living room last night for over an hour. I only fell asleep before dawn.”

With her head buried in the pillow, Max’s voice was muffled and indistinct. “I didn’t sleep even after sunrise. I’m much more tired than you are.”

Hearing that, Caroline stopped what she was doing and frowned. “That’s not right. It wasn’t dawn when I fell asleep, right? Why didn’t I hear you? Hm, it seems… I suddenly fell asleep. That’s impossible. I was so tired and couldn’t fall asleep…”

As she spoke, she subconsciously looked at the room where the cupcakes were made. Her eyes widened, and she immediately got out of bed and ran over.

Looking at the cupcakes that were piled up like a small mountain, she was shocked. “Are you kidding me? Why are there so many? Were the two of them really making cakes? Bullsh*t! How much flour did they use? Wait, do you think I’m a kid? Max never yells for God when she makes her cupcakes.”

Thinking that, she patted her head in frustration. “I should’ve opened the door to take a look. Why did I lie on the bed and cover my ears with a pillow?!”

That being said, she couldn’t suppress her curiosity any longer.

Running back to the water bed, she began to gently stroke Max. “Honey, tell me how you made the cakes last night.”

An exhausted Max was half-asleep, and subconsciously trusted Caroline even if she was impatient with the chatterbox, and she replied casually, “It was like the Ghost movie.”

“Ghost?” Thinking for a moment, Carol remembered a famous scene from the movie, and her eyes turned red. “You mean, like in the movie, you were stuck to each other, and you messed around with the flour?”

Max mumbled, “That’s right, that’s right. He even played Unchained Melody.”

Caroline gnashed her teeth. “My dream! That was my dream once!”

Few girls didn’t want to reenact that pottery scene from the movie with their boyfriends.

While Caroline was actually pretty big-hearted, she quickly turned frustrated. “Damn it, I actually fell asleep when it was so fun. If I had known, I would’ve taken photos behind the door and uploaded it to F2F.”

What she didn’t know was that Luke had decisively given her an sedative to sleep until the morning when he sensed that she was becoming more and more of a peeping tom.

Otherwise, this woman, who could barely keep her eyes open, would’ve secretly been taking photos instead of sleeping because of the blazing fire of gossip in her heart.

Luke wasn’t an exhibitionist. He didn’t want videos of him left on someone else’s phone, even if the person was a beautiful woman.

Did the woman have no idea why Max had kicked her into her room and taken over the living room, and even borrowed Caroline’s bed?

She wanted to secretly take photos of her roommate “making cupcakes.” What a peeping tom!

To settle everything in one go, he could only use a sedative.

Thankfully, the sedative was environmentally friendly and harmless. It could even cure some insomniacs, who would feel refreshed and energetic after sleeping.

That was why Caroline was so lively.

Max, on the other hand, didn’t enjoy such treatment. She had stayed up late to study 18 ways to make fancy cakes with Luke, from kneading to rolling, and then investigated recipes and heat control; it could be said that they left no stone unturned.

At that moment, she was completely exhausted, and in the end, spilled a bunch of things to Caroline in her half-dazed state.

But no good came out of it for Caroline.

She couldn’t say anything, her eyes red with envy as she breathed harshly.

She wished she hadn’t heard about some eight-pack, big chest muscles, and a firm back.

Not only did she have to go to the diner in the afternoon, she also had to ask for time off for Max.

After listening to everything Max told her, she didn’t dare let Max go to work.
