Niles sat next to Blair and Wacian sat on the other side of Niles.
Normally, Niles should exchange seats with Blair and sit next to his own brother.

She took a second to chew the food in her mouth and swallow it.
“Yeah?”
“That true? You’re engaged?”
“Well… yes.”
Confusion was written all over his face.
“Why? I thought you were crushing on my brother,” he asked.
Blair almost choked on her saliva. ‘Cut it out! Your brother can hear us, ‘ she thought helplessly in her mind.
