Chapter 411 Seaside Cove
"Call of Duty?" Zhane asked, tilting his head in confusion.
Hera chuckled softly, recognizing that Zhane’s workaholic nature meant he was unfamiliar with games. She explained, "Call of Duty is a computer game, and there’s even a version for phones. It’s a survival game where players fight each other using various guns and melee weapons until only one person is left standing."
Zhane nodded with a smile, his voice tinged with genuine interest. "That sounds like fun." His enthusiasm surprised Hera, as she hadn’t expected him to show such interest in a game that involved guns, given his usually serious demeanor.
She could easily imagine Dave expressing an interest in guns and weapons—his mischievous and reckless nature seemed a perfect fit for such a hobby. But Zhane? His interest in firearms was unexpected, and she would have never guessed if she hadn’t seen it firsthand. Still, she was delighted to share this passion with him, grateful for the opportunity to experience it together.
Hera beamed with excitement and declared, "Alright! Lunch is on me!" She puffed out her chest proudly, her joy evident. She was thrilled not just about treating Zhane, but also about her impressive score, especially when compared to a seasoned shooter like him.
Zhane chuckled softly as he gently took Hera’s hand. "Anywhere is fine?" he asked with a playful tone, though his eyes revealed a tender and affectionate gaze.
Hera’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she nearly bounced on her feet. "Absolutely! I’m so thrilled to have this chance. I wish we could come back again soon!" She walked eagerly beside him, her enthusiasm infectious.
Hearing her use the word "we" sparked a profound joy in Zhane’s heart. It signified that she had truly accepted him, marking a significant step in their relationship. His smile widened uncontrollably as he led her back to the car, eager to drive to the seaside restaurant for their lunch together.
As they drove, the view outside the window was breathtaking. The vast expanse of the sea, the stretch of white sand, and the blazing afternoon sun painted a stunning picture.
