“Then what do you have to say about this picture?” Julia remarks. She takes out her phone showed a picture to Lucy. In it, Christina and Robin were hugging each other.
Robin recalled the scene right away.
“She took the picture? When?”.
Lucy went silent as she had no answer to that question of hers. Gray and others were left hanging, and it became a tense atmosphere throughout the party hall.
“If she’s only his friend then why were they out hugging each other?”.
“It’s common for friends to hug each other, I thought you were aware of that sister,” Lucy stated, walking closer towards Julia.

“But he doesn’t seem as innocent as you make him sound like, is he?” Olivia comments
