Chapter 147-guilty

Cecilia's POV

I sat on the stairs, observing the situation in the office while working on the script for a video on my phone. 

My mind was momentarily stuck, and then I heard the sound of the door opening next to me.

I immediately stood up, leaning forward to get a better view. 

A group of whispering boys walked out of the office, and after a few seconds, Jacob and Karl followed. Karl walked at the end, pulling the door shut behind him. 

In that instant, Jacob was about to say something to Karl, but he noticed Karl's complete lack of attention, his eyes fixed on the wall. 

Alright. 

Jacob consciously withdrew his words, catching up with the boys ahead. 

The corridor was now left with just the two of us. Somehow, the atmosphere felt a bit heavy.

I picked at the crescent moon on my nail, suddenly unsure of what to say.
