Charity’s Events: Lipstick And Lies

Chapter 95: Charity's Event: Lipstick and Lies

The chatter in the grand hall buzzed around Eira like a swarm of bees, but her attention was fully on Callian.

He stood by the bar, exchanging polite words with a sponsor.

Eira sipped her water, letting her gaze wander.

A few tables away, Mita caught her eye, leaning into a conversation with Leina.

Their shared glances in her direction were obvious, their whispered words even more so.

Callian caught her eye from across the room and gave her a small smile before handing his empty glass to a passing waiter.

He gestured toward the restroom with a nod and disappeared through the side door.

Eira sat back, trying to ignore so many stares.

Moments later, she saw Mita rise from her seat, excusing herself with a knowing smirk before following in the same direction Callian had gone.

The minutes ticked by, stretching longer than they should have.
