Sweat broke on her forehead and she gulped nervously as she frantically moved her eyes. 'What is he doing here?' she thought.
Mia had been careful on her way here. Even in her frustrated state, she kept her eyes around making sure, he wasn't around, but...
As if losing her strength to even turn and excuse herself felt difficult for her in this situation. She felt trapped but she also knew she had to answer him somehow to ease this building tension.
Taking a moment, Mia tried to ease her beating heart and finally decided to turn.
The moment their eyes met, she saw Riel smiling at her in the same way he had been doing for some time now. She could feel her palm turning cold at his twisted gaze, but she decided to remain composed.
Gabriel on the other hand smirked watching her helpless state that she was trying hard to hide. But whom she was trying to fool.
