Charlton went back to school in a bad mood Honestly, do they have to show it to his face that they were together? Why did he even agree on the signing event in the first place? He was not even able to say no on theain

But he understood too hy, and he wanted to beat himself for it Was he that illed? Just a spark of little hope and he was ready to co Honestly, the little look of disappoints for hiot his face slapped back i back, did she know that he was invited on that ? It was not like Geoffrey nor Leonard was needed for today Perhaps the two of theether now It was just that he has not seen her the last teeks, so he did not knohat she has been up to

Also, Geoffrey acco event? Can't they even stay apart even for a second? Why do they always have to rub it on his face? Alright, so Geoffrey doesn't know But Serena should at the very least think of how he feels

Anyway, he already agreed, and he can't go back on his word He should just let go of his feelings for Serena and start getting used to seeing her with Geoffrey It's not like he can avoid the, like right now, he can sit inside his carriage like some loser andin self-pity

She wondered where he went after lunch Did he go out to ning event first How could he have known that Valentine's day was on a Wednesday? She bets that he justof him already and focus on their project
