Chapter 287 Twists of Fate

Amid the crowd's buzz, Stephanie went to Milly, grinning, and asked, “Milly, would you like to cto my

coming-of-age party?”

Milly’s eyebrow quirked up. puzzled over Stephanie’s move.

What was the deal with inviting folks to the Burnett digs? Milly figured, even if Stephanie had stashed her stuff,

could she honestly expect Jordan and Grandpa to play along and act clueless about her?

Before Milly could get a word out, someone in the vicinity started poking fun, “Stephanie, why are you bothering

with her invite? Didn't she just give you a hard time?”

“Seriously, someone as nasty as her shouldn't even step in your place. She'll never be on your level, ever.”

“Exactly, just brush her off.”

Following the buttering up, the crowd gradually huddled around Stephanie, leaving her encircled, and drifted

away.

At last, they cleared out!

Milly sighed in relief, glad to drop the pretence of a grin.

Yet, she couldn't shake off her curiosity as everyone grouped around Stephanie for a chat. Meanwhile, Lucius was

just there, all stone-faced, not bothering to look their way.

Milly blinked, “You're not heading over?”

Lucius glanced down at her. “You wantto go over?”

Milly was all for it initially, but then, she caught a whiff of his cold indifference, making her freeze.

“Uh...” a thought swiftly ran through his mind. “We're all mates here, should be backing each other up. If you

don’t mingle, wouldn’t that coff as standoffish?”

Lucius kept his poker face, “Then tag along”

Milly baulked, “No, I just ticked her off earlier. If | go over now, it'll just rile her up more. Better | lay low

for now.”

“Well, I also...”

“No, you gotta go!”

Her insistence clearly didn’t sit well with Lucius, his expression turning sour on the spot, “Why?”

“Because, uh...”

Milly was stumped; why, indeed? She couldn't outright say it’s to play it safe and stick to the typical story are,

could she? Spill that, and she wouldn't last a day.

each other up, and thrive together. Since I've got our classmate peeved, as my bud, you should helpmake

amends. Or are you saying you don’t consider us friends?”

Milly was genuinely thankful for the first tfor having the ‘we’re just mates‘ card to play.

Lucius should be at a loss for words now, right?

If he owned up to being this person, he'd need to leave right away to be there for Stephanie. But if he kept about

who he was for now, that would be even better for her. It'd be the perfect chance for her to gently pull away

from him.

Either way, it’s exactly what I'm hoping for.

Milly’s eyebrows jumped up in surprise, her smile reaching her eyes which then locked with a set of dark,

mysterious ones. Her smile paused, frozen.

Those eyes was deep, old, worn, unwavering, almost eerie.

Words seemed to fail to capture them fully.

“You.” This gaze sent a shiver of unease through Milly.

Before she could say more, he had already turned away, striding towards Stephanie.

Anthony had been kept in until the afternoon training session, and since Lucius went off to find Stephanie, he’s

been pretty distracted.

I'm not sure if it’s just something Milly's making up in her head, but she gets the vibe that Lucius does things on

purpose.

It’s kind of tough to figure out a guy who acts all aloof and tough on the outside.

It's all good, just as long as he’s not sticking too close to her, he’s free to roam.

When Xavier said the training was gonna be in the mountains, she figured it was probably just a small hill. But

when she got there, it turned out to be an actual mountain..

Without the twisting trails carving through the mountains and woods, she could have thought she was in an

untouched wild land.

Yet, this scene was pretty cool too, offering a refreshing change of

scenery.

With their group being small, they got to lead everyone. Stephanie was on her own mission, constantly nagging

Lucius, while Xavier tagged along, making sure Stephanie stayed out of trouble. On the other hand, the rest of

the classmates kept giving Milly the cold shoulder, sticking to their old ways of treating

her.

Milly found herself unexpectedly in the lead, comfortably making her way without any interruptions.

With her focus solely on the path ahead, she was in her element, undistracted.

But, halfway through their adventure, things took a sudden turn for the worse.

Out of nowhere, the sky went dark, with lightning and thunder rolling in, hinting at a looming heavy rain.

Milly, trailing quietly at the end, was the picture of calm, showing off her wise-beyond-years vibe.

It reminded her of a once-in-a-lifetexperience during a shoot in the mountains. Out of nowhere, a wild wind

picked up, lightning cracked the sky, and then it started pouring like crazy.

In that last shoot, we actually ran into a small landslide because the mountain’s terrain was so unique. Luckily,

with expert guidance, everyone was safe and sound.

Compared to that, our current situation is a walk in the park. The school picked this particular mountain for the B

training, considering a bunch of stuff. So, running into problems here? Pretty unlikely.
