Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1378

Bennett gave an awkward grin, keeping his lips sealed.

Upstairs, Carmella was on a call with Finley.

Finley exclaimed excitedly, "Carmella, you've really blown me away. I'm so proud of you!"

Carmella retained her composed smile, "I didn't lie to you, did I? The show is a total hit!"

"That's all credit to you! My dad specially called me over today to praise me for my good judgement. The advertising sponsorship for the show has brought in some serious dough for our family, all thanks to you!" Finley chuckled softly, "Let's meet up tonight. I've booked a restaurant to celebrate you!"

Since that day, Carmella and Finley had gone out a few times. Although this was the case, she didn't want to give Finley the impression that she was too easygoing, so she said, "My parents have also planned a celebration party for me. Let's reschedule our date."

"But I want to see you now. I think about you every night to the point where I can't sleep," Finley fluently spit out sweet nothings, "Whether I'm sleeping, eating, or in a meeting, I'm always thinking about you. There isn't a moment where you're not on my mind!"

Carmella was quite taken by Finley's sweet talk. She lowered her eyes and laughed, "Then, let's make it tomorrow."

"Alright, as you wish, I'll endure one more day."

The two continued to exchange sweet words before ending the call.

Carmella was still in a good mood when her phone rang again. She glanced at the screen, and her face immediately turned serious.

The phone kept ringing as though it would only stop if she answered.

Knowing she couldn't dodge the bullet, Carmella reluctantly picked up the call, "Hello?"

"Congrats! I saw online that the show you're a part of is a smashing success." Victor said with a chuckle.

Carmella stiffly said, "What do you want? Don’t come asking me for money again. I have none to give you!"

"The bar my friends and I opened isn't making any money. We've closed down!" Victor said.
