Chapter 27 : That young lady belongs to me

Laila POV

I watched as reporters surrounded Mortez and Monica. I can feel the deathly glares they both are sending me but I don't care. That's what they get for messing with me.

"Tell me again what we are doing here?" I asked as we walked around.

Jeremy sighed," Nate would be mad at us-" I gave him a look. "I mean will be mad at me if I failed to attend this event. Besides you get to do what you wanted to do."

"Do I have to come with you to every party you must attend? It's not like Tan would be here." I said though I did expect that incident with Monica.

As soon as the news was released she managed to dodge and have that girl receive all the blame. So knowing she'd be here made me agree to come along with Jer.

"Yes, because as far as everyone's knowledge the two of us are together so it is only proper you are with me," Jeremy said with a smug look.

Mars suddenly appeared and gave Jeremy a box.
