Chapter 1834: 441: Issue a duel challenge, falling off the horse prelude_3

Isla Astir explained, "It’s not even the time we agreed on yet! I made plans to meet him at 9:20, and it’s only 9:10 now."

Poppy frowned slightly, "Being a guy, he should have come earlier."

Just ten minutes.

Mandel Thompson would definitely be late.

Isla Astir wanted to say something more when a pleasing male voice arose in the air, "Miss Astir."

Isla Astir turned around slightly and smiled, "Here he is."

"Yes," Brandon quickly walked over, "I’m sorry, I just finished a meeting. I’m not late, am I?"

Isla Astir shook her head, "No, it’s only 9:11."

After speaking, Isla Astir continued, "Brandon, let me introduce you. This is my good friend Poppy Smith; everyone calls her Poppy."

Brandon turned to look at Poppy Smith and smiled, "Miss Smith, nice to meet you. I’m Mandel Thompson."

Poppy Smith silently sized up Mandel Thompson.

Dressed head to toe in designer brands.

Even his watch was worth a nine-figure sum.

He was unusually composed.

It was at this moment that Poppy Smith realized, Isla Astir’s boyfriend was definitely not as simple as Isla made him out to be.

"Mr. Thompson, I’m Poppy," she stood up, her face all sweet smiles.

After they got acquainted, Mandel Thompson sat down beside Isla Astir.

Poppy watched the two of them, enviously saying, "Isla, you and Mr. Thompson are such a good match! It makes me want to start dating too!"

Isla Astir smiled, "Then you should find someone too."

Poppy sighed and continued, "If I could find someone, would I still be single since birth?"

The two of them continued talking, and Mandel Thompson didn’t interject, only learning from Terrence Lentz and Viola Thompson how to interact, silently peeling shrimp for Isla Astir.

Seeing that Mandel kept silent, Poppy brought up the topic about Mandel, "Isla, which university did your boyfriend graduate from?"

Isla Astir genuinely didn’t know that.

They hadn’t discussed this topic.

Mandel Thompson, setting down the shrimp he hadn’t peeled properly, slightly looked up and said, "I graduated from Capital University."

On hearing this, Poppy Smith smiled, "What a coincidence, I’m an alum too! Though I did my master’s at Shelton University."

Mandel Thompson smiled politely, "That is quite a coincidence."

Poppy continued, "Isla, you could consider applying to Capital University for your master’s. It’s really a great school!"

Isla Astir ate a shrimp, "Let’s talk about that later, I’m quite busy right now."

Poppy laughed, "I almost forgot, you’re a busy person!"

After saying that, Poppy looked towards Mandel Thompson, "Mr. Thompson, you must really cherish our Isla! Girls as beautiful and capable as her are not easy to find!"

"I will," Mandel Thompson nodded sincerely.

Poppy took a sip of her drink, then continued chatting with Isla Astir.

Poppy was in the software industry, and as they talked, the conversation shifted to work.

Isla Astir smiled, "You could ask my boyfriend about that, he’s an expert in this field."

"Really?" Poppy’s eyes lit up, and she continued, "How about this, Isla, you create a group and add all three of us. If I have any questions, I can ask your boyfriend there."

Isla Astir nodded, "Sure."

Isla Astir was a person of quick action.

After speaking, Isla Astir took out her cell phone and created a group chat for the three of them.

Mandel Thompson’s WhatsApp name was very simple.

March.

Poppy was curious, "Mr. Thompson is March?"

"Yep."

Isla Astir was also curious, "Why do you call yourself March?"

Mandel Thompson looked at Isla Astir, explaining, "Because I was born in March."

Isla Astir suddenly remembered, "March 6th, right?"

"Right."

Poppy smiled, "I remember Isla is in August, so is Isla going to change hers to August?"

Mandel Thompson spoke lightly, "I can change my WhatsApp name to match Miss Astir."

After saying this, Mandel Thompson picked up his phone and changed his WhatsApp name.

[All Mountains I Meet are You.]

And Isla Astir’s WhatsApp name was: A Light Boat Has Crossed Ten Thousand Mountains.

Poppy quickly noticed Mandel Thompson’s name change in the group and looked at Isla Astir with a smile, "Isla, you’ve really found the right person."

Isla Astir smiled faintly.

Poppy continued, "By the way, Mr. Thompson, what do you actually do?"

Mandel Thompson replied, "Video games."

Video games?

It didn’t take long for Poppy to think of Cloud Group.

Actually, from Mandel Thompson’s dressing and demeanor, it was clear he wasn’t an ordinary person; now knowing he worked in the video game industry made it even easier to guess.
