Chapter 148 Fishing - Day 3 (2/2)

”How can you leave your partner alone?” Anna railed against her friend.

”Fine, fine, I'll go help her,” Lillian retracted quickly and departed.

Anna and Giselle saw her going in another direction away from Mindy. When Anna yelled, Lillian informed that she is going to take a small detour and then go to help her. Lillian replied and winked at Giselle as she left. Seeing Anna furious, Giselle comforted her.

”Anna! Calm down,” Giselle eased her.

Anna was the one holding onto the gear in that team, and so, she couldn't move much to kick Lillian's ass. However, she groaned, knowing that nothing can be done, with a girl like her.

The two returned to catch a fish.

”She's like that always, you know.”

Anna spoke suddenly, evoking her memories.

”Even when our families go out together, she doesn't try fishing. Only Edwin does it,” Anna shared.

Giselle listened to it in a trance, ”Edwin?” she puzzled.

”Oh, Edwin Grey, Lilly's father,” Anna answered.

Until now, Giselle knew nothing about Lillian Grey except admiring her from afar. Learning about Lillian's father secretly made Giselle happier as if she solved a mystery.

'Lillian's mother?' – Giselle thought.

Noticing Anna, Giselle wanted to learn more about Lillian Grey. She used the opportunity.

”What about Lillian's mother?” Giselle asked.

Anna, who was concentrating on catching the fish, heard Giselle and turned to face her.

”Lilly's mother died when she was young.”

Giselle's heart dropped when she heard it. She froze, her eyes growing in shock.

”It's okay you didn't know,” Anna explained, observing Giselle's reaction.

”I'm sorry,” she confessed.

”Hey! It's alright, Giselle. You didn't know it, right!”

Anna relaxed on the fishing rod and helped Giselle in calming her as she appeared devastated.

”Gees, what you two even talk when you're together?” Anna mumbled.

Giselle shook her head.

”I know, I know, you sick people go to the libraries, I get it.”

”Alright, let's catch a fish now, okay?” Anna appealed.

Giselle agreed.

Those two returned to fishing.
