Chapter 1915

Author: Chweety
Liliana blushed as Keith and a few roommates watched her. "Sorry, I'll just be a moment..."

"You really can’t come?” Keith asked.

Keith had not mentioned his feelings to Liliana for a while, but he had not given up. He thought Liliana was a great girl, and he had decided she was the one for him. He had been doing everything he could to make her happy.

Liliana felt really confused by Keith's hopeful look. She remembered Sean's face and his distant voice. That was the first time she felt so unsure. She remembered Tania's advice to give Keith a chance. With a helpless smile, Liliana thought she should give herself a chance with someone new too.

If she stayed stuck on Sean, she would only end up hurting herself. However, she did not really like Keith that way, and she did not want to be unfair to him by using him to forget someone else.

Keith did not know what was going on in Liliana's head. He just hoped she would accept him. Even if he could not be her boyfriend right now, he wanted

    "No worries!" Keith thought it was awesome that Liliana had even come at all. He did not really care about the light stick. "Alright, Liliana. Go grab a seat. I-I'm going to win this one and give you a good show!""Haha! Just do your best!"Liliana took her light stick and found a spot to sit. She did not know much about these things, but she had talked to Tania on the phone earlier about Keith's basketball game that afternoon, and Tania had suggested she get a light stick to show her support.Since she had promised to be there, Liliana was ready to cheer him on with everything she had.When Keith joined his teammates, they all gave him teasing looks. "Wow, you moved fast, didn't you?"Keith shot his roommate a look. "Behave.""Okay, okay! You're pretty impressive. I've heard Liliana and Tania from the business school are the toughest to win over. Now that Tania's taken, everyone's wondering who Liliana will end up with. Looks like you've got the upper hand.""Me? I'm just being

    "Keith, I love you!"In the end, the computer science team won by a landslide and beat the medical team.Keith was the hero, hoisted up and tossed in the air by his teammates as they all celebrated the big win.Liliana watched as Keith's team clinched the victory and could not help but feel joy for them. Keith, beaming with pride, immediately waved at Liliana. "Liliana, we did it!"With a gentle smile, Liliana nodded. "Yeah, I saw. You guys were amazing!""Hey Liliana, hang on a sec," Keith called out, his smile as wide as the sky. "The guys and I are going out to celebrate with some food. You've got to come with us!"Not wanting to dampen his spirits, Liliana agreed with a simple, "Sure.""Awesome! Just wait. We'll go get changed first."As Keith and his teammates headed off to change, Liliana began to gather her things. The stands were emptying out, and she pulled out her phone to see a call from Tania. She pressed the answer button, but before she could utter a word, a sud

    The surgery seemed to last forever because Liliana had taken a bad fall from way up high and hurt her head. She was also scraped all over, and the doctors wanted to make sure she did not have any serious internal injuries, so they were super careful.Tania and Keith waited outside the whole time. Sean, who was not a specialist doctor, stayed out too.He had called in the best doctor in the hospital to take care of Liliana and had been standing outside the operating room, watching without moving an inch.Tania thought Sean was acting really odd. She did not really know him well. They were just from the same school. Still, Sean had gone out of his way to get Liliana help and had even taken on some risk himself. That was not something he would do for just anybody.Sean was the head of the hospital, so he did not have to stick around for the surgery. However, he stood still as a statue, his eyes glued to the operating room door. He did not even move an inch. Tania watched Sean from t

    Sean's gaze on Keith was intense, and his eyes seemed to grow deeper.He rubbed his hands together, looking calm on the outside. However, those who knew Sean well could tell that was when he was at his most dangerous right now.Keith finished talking, and Sean stayed quiet, but his eyes flickered with something unspoken.Tania had been watching Sean and Keith the whole time. She found Sean's reaction to Liliana's situation odd—it was not the simple concern of an upperclassman for an underclassman.However, Tania knew this was not the time for questions. When Sean got up, she followed suit. "Sean, I can't thank you enough for today. Without you, who knows if Liliana could have had her surgery!"Tania was sincere in her gratitude. Sean just gave a small frown and nodded. "I did what I had to do."After Liliana's surgery, she was moved to a regular room. Tania and Keith kept vigil by her bed, never leaving her side.Outside the hospital room, Sean's deep gaze lingered on the two

    "What's wrong?" Tania saw that Liliana looked pale and waved her hand in front of Liliana's eyes. "Are you okay? Do you know who pushed you?"Liliana shook her head, then nodded. "I'm not sure yet, but I think it was her.""Her? Who?"Tania was taken aback. "How could you, of all people, make an enemy?"Liliana shook her head. "I don't know. I think she’s Keith's biggest fan. She was sitting next to me and really didn’t like me.” Liliana strongly suspected that girl of pushing her. Maybe she wanted to remove her competition for Keith.Tania heard that and got really mad. "Some people are so evil, hurting others for their own stupid reasons! We can't just let this go."Tania was known for her quick temper, though she never threw the first strike. However, if someone messed with her, she would definitely stand up for herself."Don't worry, I'll take care of it. But tell me, did you send me here?" Liliana asked Tania."Nope, it was Keith. He had to leave, though, because something

    Talk about perfect timing.Tania and Liliana had just been talking about Sean when he showed up.He pushed the door open and stepped in, looking over at Liliana with a casual expression. "You're up?" He spoke casually, like she could have been anyone else.Liliana, who had been feeling relaxed, tensed up the moment Sean walked in. She watched him closely and gave a small nod. "Yeah."Tania jumped to her feet, full of excitement. "Hey, you made it! Come on in and take a seat!"She really liked Sean and welcomed him warmly as soon as she saw him.Liliana tried to speak up, but Tania cut her off. Feeling a bit helpless, Liliana looked down, trying her best to seem calm and normal.Sean kept his composure on the outside, but his eyes, as bright as stars, never stopped watching Liliana. He noticed her eyes looking down and her face a bit pale. His gaze twinkled for a moment before he quickly hid it. "How are you feeling?" he asked like he was talking to another one of his sick patien

    He inhaled deeply. "Yes, t-there is something else.""What's up?"Being stuck in this room with Sean just felt so awkward for Liliana."Charles knows about this."Liliana was surprised at first, but then she felt a sense of relief. "Okay, thanks."Given how close Sean and Charles were, and considering she was in Sean's hospital after her accident, Liliana was not surprised that Sean would tell Charles, even if he had issues with her.Sean squinted. "Are you annoyed?"Liliana looked up and pressed her lips together. "Not at all.""Okay." Sean hesitated. "You don't have to worry about the bills. He's taken care of them."Liliana nodded. "Got it."Then, there was another one of those weird silences between them.Liliana did not know how to act around Sean anymore. Ever since that incident, it felt like they had drifted apart, maybe too far to ever come back.Liliana knew it was not Sean's fault. If she had to blame someone, it was herself for her silly daydreams.Liliana's qu

    Autumn had painted Brookville in shades of gold and crimson when Noelle Shaw stepped off the plane. She grabbed her suitcase and walked out into the crisp air, a familiar sense of home wrapping around her.A whole year had passed since she left to pursue a corporate training program overseas, and now, she was back just in time.Her third anniversary with her boyfriend Xavier Harris was just days away, and she had been working nonstop to make it back early enough to surprise him.She hailed a cab and headed straight for Xavier's office. The moment she walked through the front doors, Alice, the receptionist, gave her a look of total shock. "Ms. Shaw? You’re back? Are you here for the CEO's engagement party?"Noelle's brow creased in confusion. "The CEO's engagement party? What are you talking about, Alice?""It's Mr. Harris's engagement party with your sister!""What?" Noelle's heart skipped a beat, and the happiness drained from her face. "Whose engagement party?"Alice seemed to

    Jamie was really good to Tania and always happy to do whatever she wanted.Liliana smiled to herself. Suddenly, a shadow loomed over her.Keith asked, "What's so funny?"Liliana stopped smiling. "Oh, nothing." She saw that Keith had brought back her favorite dishes. "Thanks," she said with a smile.Keith ran his fingers through his hair and gave a shy smile. "No need to thank me. I actually wanted to take you out for a meal.""It's okay. The food here at our school's cafeteria is pretty good too." Liliana was not fussy about food. She could eat anything, even if it was not tasty.She had no choice. The time she spent with the Hoffman family was the toughest in her life.She never joined the family at their dining table. She had meals that were even worse than what the Hoffman family's servants ate. Liliana was just happy to have food nowadays and never complained.Keith watched Liliana as she ate quietly, her head down. He could not take his eyes off her, thinking everything sh
