Chapter 221 - 219: 3 Weeks Before Summer Break I (2/2)
Of a bicycle built for two”
The two of them grinned at each other. ”I guess this song would be it.”
Serena nodded excitedly. ”I'm sure you'll be able to make it sound more beautiful.”
After successfully selecting the song, Serena asked Charlton if he can squeeze creating the harmony of the song 'wannabe' before next week so that she can ask her friends to join them for the recording. She was also thinking of releasing the song after the signing event.
Since Charlton has already helped them last time, he was familiar with the song already and thought that he can manage. ”Do you still have your student council meeting next Saturday?”
”Ugh… now that you reminded me, yes, I still do. It's the last meeting for the school year though.”
”Alright. I will have to go to the studio early to finalize the harmony for all the songs so that when you arrive, all you have to do is sing.”
”The girls would be so excited to hear that.”
Charlton smiled, ”It's good to bring them along with you on Saturday, that way I also don't have to worry about you travelling alone.”
Serena laughed as she teased him. ”you're becoming more and more of a worrywart every day. I won't be surprised if your hair turns white soon.”
Charlton just shook his head as he chuckled ”My father is already in his mid-50's and he doesn't have a single white hair. It doesn't run in our family. I think you'll be happy to know that.”

On Sunday, Serena and the others went to the orphanage. It was their second to the last visit, however, the Seniors were unable to join them due to the fact that their final exam would be starting on the next day.
Anyway, their last visit was supposed to be scheduled on the 9th of June, however since that is the day before their final exam, and the next Sunday was between the Year-end ball and the graduation day, they decided to move it on the 19th of June.
Serena sighed in relief, good thing it was not scheduled on the 17th as that was the day of their signing event. Anyhow, before they went back to their carriage to go back to their dorm, Geoffrey called her to talk. Not having a choice, she was left alone with him again.
Geoffrey smiled at Serena, since he has been giving her space as she asked, he haven't talked to her much. That doesn't mean he's not paying attention to her though. Lately she has been all smiles, and he wondered what made her so happy.
”Yes?” Serena asked. Lately, Geoffrey has not been as pushy and just minds his own business, so she doesn't feel too uncomfortable talking to him now.
”I need to ask the color of the gown you'll be wearing for the year-end ball.”
”Oh, that, I think I will wear light blue.”
”Alright. By the way Serena, I was thinking the day after the ball, would you…”
”No, I'm sorry. I can't on that day.”
Geoffrey frowned. He hasn't even asked yet. ”Why?”
Serena did not want to tell him about it, but she has no choice now. ”I need to attend the contract signing event set on that day.”
”Contract signing?”
