Chapter 216 Rushing ou (1/2)
Anna's dance got interrupted when she noticed Diego standing near the exit door. She saw him once a few minutes ago and thought that they were taking a break. However, that wasn't the case. Diego seems to be standing alone for a long time.
”Anthony, can I excuse myself for a minute?” Anna requested.
Anthony agreed, and they both retired from dancing. Anthony waited while Anna addressed Diego.
”Why are you alone, Diego?” she asks.

Diego got alarmed from the familiar voice. He lifted his face to see Anna nearing him.
'What the hell?' – Anna noticed Diego's clouded face.
'Is he about to mourn?' – she worried.
”Diego?” Anna called until the boy flipped his switch to answer her.
”Ah, Anna, are you guys taking a break finally?” he responded, urgently hiding his feelings.
”Where is that idiot?” Anna asked, knowing that Lillian Grey must be out somewhere, and that is the reason why Diego is waiting alone.
”She is gone.”
Diego's response shocked Anna.
”Gone! What do you mean by gone?” Anna questioned.
”It means she left the place by herself.”
”What happened?”
”I don't know. I don't know, Anna. She looked spaced out, and I tried asking her several times, but in the end, Lilly said she wanted to go to the bathroom. Guess what? A few minutes later, this is the message I got from her.”
Diego answered and took out his mobile to show the text Lillian Grey sent him earlier.
Anna read the whole text. She even seized the mobile harshly to read it multiple times.
”What the hell is this? What does she mean she needs to go?”
Anna gave Diego's phone back to him and took out her mobile. She dialed Lillian's number. It rang, but there was no response. It appeared that Lillian didn't want to answer the call.
'What is she doing?'
'I told her not to mess it up, at least for Diego.'
Anna got mad from seeing her friend in such a state.
Everyone was happy with their partner, whether they are in love with each other or not because that day was meant to be a cherishing memory for them. Anna specifically advised Lillian not to ruin the night for Diego, and when she finds her friend abandoned, it bothered Anna.
She kept calling Lillian Grey, but there was no response. Lillian refused to respond to the call.
It only frustrated Anna.
…
”Stop it, Anna. I don't think she will answer. I already tried many times.”
”Psst…”
Anna went and stood next to Diego. She consoled and gave him company.
Anthony, who waited for several minutes, got worried and came to check. It is then Anna explains that due to some reasons, Lillian already left the place.
Anthony, too, felt bad for Diego.
..
”Let us all leave together,” he suggested.
”What?” Anna asked.
”Look at the time; it is almost getting late. We will catch up on some food and then roam the streets, maybe watch a movie. Diego, you are invited by default,” Anthony recommends.
”No, Anthony. You guys go and enjoy it. I'll head home,” Diego politely tried to refuse.
However, Anna ordered him to join along with Anthony. After a while of brain-washing, the two dragged Diego out of the campus. Anthony let the driver start the car as they chose to visit a popular pizza spot.

Giselle kept moving around in her bed.
Restless and disturbed.
She kept fidgeting under the blanket, not being able to remain in peace.
It has been like that for a few minutes already. The disturbed mind never let the girl escape and held on to her desperately.
Giselle struggled.
Swiftly getting out of her bed, she hesitated for a minute, stiffened like a statue. When it finally hit her, she went to change her clothes and grabs a coat while leaving the room.
Hastening her steps rapidly, she descended the stairs and quickly dashed across the living room to open the door and leave.
