Lily couldn't stop smiling throughout the dinner that Matthew had prepared for their engagement. Everyone at the table was close to her. Lily looked at Alona, Mrs. Thomas, Sigmund, and even Pascal were celebrating her engagement to Matthew.
Suddenly Lily missed Ryan's presence. On the sidelines of the happiness she felt this time, she suddenly felt something was missing. Ryan was supposed to be there to celebrate her engagement to Matthew, but until the last second, Lily didn't hear anything from Ryan.
"You should be here and celebrate," Lily muttered. Her mind was flying away, thinking about Ryan, who she couldn't contact. He was always there when she needed him.
Lily felt a little annoyed because Ryan was not present with her when she felt happy. The missing of Ryan made the happiness that she felt a little stifled. Something is missing—something that no one else could think of but her.
