CHAPTER 23
ICE BREAKERS GROUP TEXT
Lucian
Guys, there’s a food critic coming to interview Neesha at the bookstore at 11. I need you all to show up and act like her cupcakes are the best thing you’ve ever tasted. Make a big deal about them but keep it SECRET. This could be huge for her business.
Asher
SURPRISE PARTY TIME! I’m bringing balloons!
Lucian
NO BALLOONS. Just act casual and buy cupcakes. Then casually mention how good they taste, like you’re a regular customer.
Clément
Ah, so romantic! In France, we would serenade her. Possibly with an accordion. Does anyone own one?
Lucian
Please don’tbring an accordion.
Weston
Wait, what’s happening? I’m confused, but all in! Does Fiona know about this?
Lucian
We probably shouldn’t tell our girlfriends.
Jamie
Too late. Ashlyn already told me she’s free at 11.
Lucian
You already told someone?
Jamie
As soon as you sent the message.
Cade
Me too.
Carson
Me three.
Clément
Me four.
Lucian
What part of SECRET don’t you guys understand?
