Chapter 112 - 111: Changing Partners III (1/2)
Serena felt that she was being too harsh on him also, what valid reason does she have to say no for tomorrow? They will be in the student council meeting in the morning and will be having their rehearsal after lunch.
Serena nodded and smiled at him. ”Alright, tomorrow is okay.”
Geoffrey beamed.
Serena had to admit, he was handsome and can be very charming.

Walking back, Via, Gizel and Milly were already waiting for her outside. Serena smiled at Geoffrey and told him that they will go ahead.
Geoffrey decided that he should not be awkward with her friends any longer. He might be seeing more of them in the future. So, he nodded at Serena and for the first time, he addressed them, ”Ah, Via, Milly, and Gizel, right? Thank you for taking care of Serena all this time.” Then he smiled.
The girls' eyes widened and as they gaped. Did the crown prince just address them by name?
Geoffrey saw their faces and let out a chuckle.
Serena felt embarrassed for them, so she cleared her throat and said, ”Come on.”
The girls all nodded and not knowing how to address Geoffrey they just smiled at him and said their goodbyes.
Geoffrey walked with them until they exited the building. Then, they parted ways.

”I'm not really a gossip, but I heard from Gizel… I'm sorry, Serena. I was not attentive enough not to know.” Via said as they walked back to their dorm.
”It's alright, Via. I didn't let you guys know because I thought it would work out in the end. But now… I don't know anymore…”
”Hmpft! Did you see that Emily earlier? She was like a parasite leeching on to Charlton. And you know what was even worst? He let her. I tell you Serena, forget about him. Besides… Via, you tell her.”
Serena curious looked at Via in askance.
”I'm not sure if Kylo was telling that truth but… he told me that Charlton has moved on and has no plans on getting back together with you…”
”What?” Milly reacted. ”But if it came from Kylo… then we should take his word like a grain of salt. You know how he is.”
Serena shook her head as her eyes blurred. ”I think he's telling the truth. Charlton did not even turn his head once to see me. Even when he heard that I was paired up with Geoffrey he didn't seem to care.”
The girls just arrived in front of her room and seeing her being so sad for the first time, they all hugged her.
