CHAPTER 141

　　I glanced at Vayden. He didn't even look at me. He was listening to something dad was saying. So, I gave a small nod to Rio.

　　"I want to find that stupid ugly trainer and shower him with love," Everley told us. "Damn! Why didn't we catch him?"

　　I decided to text Vayden. I took out my phone and typed the message.

　　Viana:

　　Come upstairs. I wanna talk to you.

　　He saw the text, but he ignored it as if it was an advertisement. I knew he was upset with me, but I had to persuade him. Him staying angry with me was more annoying than him teasing me.

　　"Vayden, come upstairs," I whispered to him. Others were busy with their talks.

　　He side-eyed me and got into another conversation, avoiding me like I was wearing an invisible cloak. "Ev, did mom and dad call you?"

　　"Yes. I didn't tell them the truth. Otherwise, you know mom would drag dad back here."
