Chapter 288: Day before Graduation I

*Krrrrinnnggggg!!!!*

The phone started ringing.

Serena and her friends, Gizel, Milly, and Via, were in her room in the dormitory, busy reminiscing about their year-end ball dance the other night and just bonding together as their graduation was already tomorrow.

Beatrice, her maid picked it up.

"Milady, it's a call from Columbia's." Beatrice informed.

Serena excitedly went to answer the phone. She knew that it should be Charlton, that has been their code since a telephone has been installed in her room. She missed him so. 

After he graduated, their meetings became less frequent but their nightly calls over the phone made it feel like they were together every day. However, a month ago, he had to travel to Torton for a task delegated to him in line with his work as the vice minister of works. 

Anyway, she received the phone from Beatrice and place the earpiece on her ear "Hello?" she said.
