Winter asked her mother Carol Zims too, but Carol had no idea what had happened too.
The only possibility was that Frank had changed her clothes, which means he would have seen her body...
That was why Winter had been at once embarrassed and scared, picking up her phone endless times but unable to call Frank.
And now, Frank was saying that he was taking her to Zamri... did that mean he was taking responsibility?
She stood, one hand holding her shoe and the other holding her phone, her cheeks flushed as she froze in ce.
"Winter?! Winter!"
Frank had to shout over the phone to bring Winter to her senses, just as she noticed that she was smiling blissfully for some reason. "Oh, I''m here. Frank. You''re taking me to Zamri, right? I''ll be there right now -wait..."
Hearing Winter fumble on the other end, Frank asked in concern, "Are you alright?"
"I''m fine! I''m fine!" Winter quickly said. "I''m heading to a gathering with my ssmates right now. Can youe to White Court Hotel if you can make it?"
"White Court Hotel? Got it." Frank agreed to it briskly and hung up.
Winter kept holding her phone for a long while as her heart raced and thumped, feeling dizzy and hardly believing that it was real.
Carol just so happened to return home to find Winter with that silly grin on her face and went over to pat her on the head. "What''s gotten into you now, girlie?" "Hehehe... I''m going to Zamri, Mommy!" Winter twirled happily.
"What''s so great about that?" Carol smiled wryly.
"Oh, you won''t get it!" Winter huffed and returned to her room to pick a new dress.
She naturally had to wear her best dress to see Frank.
Carol looked on, feeling slightly pleased since only Frank would make Winter that happy.
And he had gone out of touch for a while after going to Zamri for some reason...
Soon, a beautifully dressed Winter left, taking a cab to White Court Hotel.
However, her smile froze awkwardly after she arrived and was led by a bellboy to arge private room.
It was not just her
ssmates-there were several men she did not recognize, lecturing her ssmates with an air of seniority even though they were barely any older.
"Uh... What?"
Before one of
ssmates giggled. "Qh,
looker could ask questions,
look! The belle of Riverton UniversityContent property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
Sarrived!"
Everyone else turned towards Winter as well, and the men''s eyes lit up as Winter really made an effort to look pretty.
One of them even pulled out a chair for her. "Come over here, you can sit beside me."
"Oh... Haha, I''m fine." Winter waved him off awkwardly and quietly sat down beside Jean Zims.
Staring at the unfamiliar man, she asked under her breath, "Who are e
these people, Jean? I though are et
just our ssmates?"
