Feeling slightly more optimistic than before, Diana took her bag and went to the college lab room. However, when she arrived, she found that the lab had been locked.
Diana cursed her bad luck. She walked down the corridor and called Kyle.
“Kyle, are you in school now?” Diana asked awkwardly.
Kyle was driving back home. But he knew Diana must be calling him for help. So, he said, “I just had dinner. I am on the way back now. Can I help you with something?”
Diana was hugely relieved. “Kyle, I realized that there are a few experiments I never finished. So, I want to complete them tonight in the lab. You have the key, right?”
“Yes. Wait for me. I’ll come soon,” Kyle answered.
“Great, thank you!” Diana was elated.
Kyle was pleased to hear Diana’s happy voice. She deserved his favor. Whatever she encountered in life, it seemed she always stayed optimistic.
Actually, he also knew there might be something going on between Diana and Lilly. Everyone in the William family knew that Brian’s fiancée had come back. Now she had returned, it was obvious that Brian and Carol’s powerful families would intervene to stop Diana and Brian’s relationship progressing.
Thinking of that, Kyle smiled contentedly. Maybe he would finally manage to get what he wanted…
After finishing the call with Kyle, Diana was happy. She was hungry again and decided to buy something to feed herself in the canteen.
When she walked out of the lab, she saw a familiar car waiting in the parking lot nearby.
It was a Maybach. It was Brian’s customized Maybach.
Diana had expected Brian might come to scold her after finding out she had left him. So, she quickly turned back into the building before Brian noticed her.
At the same time, Antonette was out and about, on her way back from dinner.
Brian William? Antonette easily spotted his tall figure and gorgeous face.
Antonette thought Brian must be there to look for Diana. This was her chance! Antonette smiled slightly and walked toward Brian.
“Mr. William, nice to see you. It’s a small world, isn’t it?” Antonette tilted her head to one side, trying to appear sweet and innocent. She didn’t notice that Brian felt disgusted to see her.
But he reminded himself that Antonette was Diana’s classmate and roommate; it wasn’t a good idea to antagonize her if he could help it. “Where is Diana? Do you know where she is?” he asked.
Antonette was unhappy to hear Brian mention Diana. But she hid her emotions and smiled. “Diana went out. I don’t know where she is now. Mr. William, you are not familiar with our college. Maybe I can be your guide and show you around?”
“No.,” Brian replied and walked off into the college.
Brian was great at reading people. And he could see when Antonette told him Diana wasn’t around that she was lying to him. If she was lying, then he was certain that Diana must be in the school somewhere.
Brian wore a determined smile. He was going to seize that cold-hearted girl and punish her for her running away from him!
Antonette didn’t expect that Brian would ignore her so ruthlessly. She ground her teeth and ran to Brian. “Mr. William, I just remembered that Diana said she would go to the library. You can probably find her there.”
Antonette was lying. But she knew Diana often went to the library. If she wasn’t there, she could just say she remembered incorrectly.
“Did she?” Brian raised his eyebrows.
“Yes, yes! I can show you the way.” Antonette replied eagerly.
Brian looked at Antonette and finally accepted her help.
“Lead the way then.”
Antonette’s goal was within her reach; now, she had to show off her charm and potential girlfriend qualities. She walked gently and elegantly beside Brian as they talked.
Brian tried to keep a straight face, but at last, he couldn’t bear to listen to Antonette anymore, so he took out a pair of earplugs and put them in.
Antonette was very embarrassed. Several girls who knew Antonette saw what was happening and were making jokes at her expense.
While Brian was able to ignore those girls’ reactions happily, Antonette had rather mixed emotions. She was unhappy at their insults but also happy for their jealousy and attention. After all, walking with a guy like Brian William was a dream for every girl in college!
As they approached the entrance to the library, Brian took out the earplugs and said to Antonette, “You can leave now. I will find her by myself.”
Antonette was shocked. She feebly tried to protest, “Mr. William…”
“Silence! I will not repeat myself.” Brian’s tone was so cold that it made Antonette shiver.
Antonette knew if she said anything else, Brian would be ruthless with her. So, she smiled sweetly and left.
Glancing at Antonette, Brian gave her a fake smile and walked into the library.
Diana hid in the lab room opposite the library, watching Brian and Antonette. She couldn’t hear what was being said, but it looked like Brian was actually treating Antonette nicely.
He walked with Antonette for such a long time in front of so many people! Diana was surprisingly angered at seeing this.
At that moment, Diana’s phone started ringing.
“Diana? Are you in the lab room? I have arrived at school.”
Diana was relieved to hear Kyle’s voice. “Kyle! Come quickly! I will wait for you here!”
Hearing her tone, Kyle could tell Diana was eager to get into the lab. “Relax! I am on the way.”
It only took Kyle three minutes to arrive. He found that Diana looked rather depressed. “What happened? Are you mad at me for showing up late?”
Seeing him, Diana jumped elatedly. “Kyle! You are here!”
Just seeing Diana’s smile made the trip back to college worth it for Kyle.
Kyle opened the door and led Diana into the room. After turning on the lights, Kyle asked as tactfully as he could, “You didn’t have time to finish many experiments because of handling Brian’s stuff. Are you going to finish them all now?”
