Seth tossed his words at Lillian Grey, which made the girl choke on her drink.
She coughed out loud.
Observing the way Lillian Grey reacted shockingly, Seth didn't bother to stress it anymore. He gave her some time to relax.
Lillian fake laughed humorously trying to appeal to Seth.
'Damn this man always catches her on crucial times.'
Lillian Grey knew it already that she exposed herself with the drink.
'How did he find it, though?' - Lillian thought.
”Thinking how did I found it, huh?” Seth asked as if he read her mind crystal clear.
Lillian felt her heart stop at that moment. Just how much this man can read her, for a second, Lillian believed that Seth held superpowers.
Other than that, Lillian Grey couldn't figure out how she can get caught repeatedly by the same guy over and over again.
”Y- yes, No-” Lillian's uncertainly respond.
Without hesitating, Seth began to explain:
”I saw you and Mindy arriving late before Jamie's performance.”
'Crap, he noticed me at that time already!'
Lillian Grey never spoke, but her mind-voice kept reflecting within.
”First, you left during Jamie's performance then I saw Giselle sneakily attempting to leave the place as well. However, she left during the break times. So, I saw her too.”
Seth paused to take a sip of his drink. He then resumed talking.
”I thought it was just a coincidence but-”
His gaze fell upon Lillian Grey inwardly smirking, yet on the outside, it meant as if he suspected her.
'He knew it was me, who dragged Giselle.' - the mind-voice didn't have to think twice and instantly remarked.
”Lillian Grey, Giselle, the only two students who disappeared for hours. Do you think we need the FBI to investigate it?”
”Even a kid can grasp who went around!”
'Duh, I didn't say we needed the FBI to find, also what the hell?'
'Is this some kind off kidnap case?'
'Don't tell me that Seth, actually thought I kidnapped Giselle!'
'I mean it was my idea, but she came voluntarily, No one forced her to meet me.'
Lillian's gaze lowered and fixed on the muddy ground.
It is then Seth observed her. He noticed a few almost healed blisters on her forehead, her lips appeared dry, and a tear displayed at the corners of the mouth.
'Did she got injured somewhere or-?' - just as Seth's mind tried to guess, it struck him like a clap of thunder.
”Lillian?” Seth calls her.
The dormant girl who kept a stoic face not to let Seth further investigate her or the place they went; Lillian never wanted anyone to know where she took Giselle. Swearing within herself to never get discovered, Lillian looked up to attend Seth's beckoning.
She didn't like the way Seth stared at her, as if she still has secrets to unveil. Lillian dare not to even breathe freely. Restraining herself, she faked a curious expression on her face.
