Chapter 4 - Sorry

"And that's why you are angry?. You're serious?" Rose teased her.

They all went to the counter to pay for the items they bought before walking out.

They all walked to the parking lot, entering inside Lia's Range Rover SV Carmel Edition. "Whoa the car's cool!" Anne said, turning on the AC.

"Yeah, it is" Lia grinned happily.

"Mom's so lucky" Lia said, turning on the car engine.

"You say... Mom's? Car?" Rose asked, looking directly at her. She could clearly remembered that Lia said it was hers, why the sudden change of word.

"You said it was yours!"

"No I said, it's indirectly mine. My dad gave it to my Mom on their anniversary" Lia explained, while driving.

"Oh" The duo said in relialisation.

"Yeah, now fasten your seatbelts" Lia instructed like a mother taking her kids to school.

Now to the Lee's Family.

She breathed a sigh of relief before zooming off into the highway.

Messages sounds and vibration could be heard from Rose's cell phone. It was vibrating non stop, making Anne to put her ear plugs on.

"Rose, reduce your volume it's killing my poor ear." Lia winced from the sound.

"Sorry, it's from the school forum. The last time I checked it was...last month..or..not quite sure though" She said trying to remember.

"Are you kidding me!. Last month, seriously" Anne raised her head up abruptly when she heard it.

"And besides, it's mostly from the GC on WhatsApp. The fucking photo I keep seeing here are from Elena." She hissed screwing down on her cell phone for more gist.

After driving for about an hour, they finally arrived at a massive building, the gate was big and it's fences was so high it covered half of the mansion. Security guards were stationed outside, already aiming their gun at them. One of the security in charge of the control room, went out to approach them as Lia neared the building with her car. The car's glass was tinted , so it could not be seen clearly.

He gently knocked on the glass, Lia rolled down and he looked into the car.

He suddenly straightened up, picked up the speaker from his waist and spoke.

"It's the Young Miss and her friends. Open the gate" As soon as he said that, A beeping sound resounded in the air. The iron gate opener slowly.

He tap on the car's top twice and Lia zoomed in.

"Tsk, tsk that's security is handsome though, you know" Lia said, smiling looking at the side mirror to look at their reaction.

"So you left Jack now, and you're crushing on The Lee's Chief in security officer. Boo hoo" Anne mocked in a teasing tone.

"He has a daughter and a wife" Rose said, referring to John.

"And he's that young!, Geez couldn't he wait at least" Lia exclaimed.

He looks so young and he's already married and has a daughter too.

Rose laughed at her, she carried a little brown teddy bear that was on the car seat and threw it at her.

"Ouch, what ya do that for?" She let out a groan of disappointed while holding the back of her head.

"You just pray, you don't have a boyfriend cuz am going to tell him, you're crushing on someone's else man" Anne said as she bit her lips to control her laughter.

"Even you Anne, you've joined her?" Lia pretended to be angry with her, She placed her left hand on her side of her face, looking hurt.

She remembered what Rose had said and she frowned all of a sudden.

"That player I never liked him, just playing with his feeling that's all" She frowned as soon as she heared that name.

That was the same Jack that broke one a girls heart last year and she almost committed suicide due to anxiety and depression. Such a naive fellow. Just because she came from an average family, her words were fake to the others, gone in the wind.

She needs to teach that playboy a lesson that will mend his ways like a faithful and obedient dog.

In Riles University. It's either you be a player or you get played by someone, an enemy or a friend. If you that have a strong heart, then you'll fall easily to the ground like a dying leaf. It's a school for the rich, wealthy and asrtrocate family.

She turned to the parking lot and stopped. "Right, come outside let's go" Lia turned off the engine, carried the necessities and locked the door.

She slowly turned when she suddenly caught sight of a car. It looked familiar but she couldn't remember where and when she saw it.

"Come Lia, let's go" Rose called her from behind.

"Oh, yes am coming" She answered, walking to towards them.

As they arrived at the main door to enter inside, a beep was heard and the door began to open slowly.

Anne was the first to step inside unknowingly to her. She though she was still close to Lia and Rise, who knew they would betray her to see how many people was there before entering.

She turned and walked cluelessly to the main room, till " Anne" A voice suddenly called out to her. She turned, and a pair of eyes were looking at her from different angles.

"You're here?" Her mom asked. But she wasn't looking at anyone right now but nothing. Her mind was blank.

From Lady Ruby to Mark to her Mom, Dad, Brother, Mrs Sophia, Her Mom to an unknown stranger she didn't know where he came from.

" Sorry, my manners. Good afternoon everyone and Aunty" She broke the silence, smiling at Lady Ruby.

The man suddenly got a call "Sorry I have to take this call" He excused himself and left hurriedly.

"Where's Rose?" Mark asked.

"Am here" She said, making her entrance known to everyone.

"Grandmother you're here!" Rose ran to the elder lady, opening her arms for a hug.

But the old lady refused to return the hug and she gently pushed Rose a little.

She frowned and pouted her lips. Folding her arms, she angry turned to the other side.
