Sugar Dating with CEO-Chapter 138

138 Attention Seeking Girl

The next day, as usual, the cafe was visited by Violet and the others. And this time, Aluna also joined. Everything went smoothly, even though they had guessed what Aluna was doing, even though their hearts ached for the burgundy-haired girl but they still behaved as usual.

Laughter filled their table, many pairs of eyes glanced at the group of women several times. More precisely at Aluna, because Aluna was the most beautiful and cute woman among the others.

Aluna remained elegant with a small laugh that was made as sweet as possible, she knew very well now that she was outside and was noticed by many people.

“By the way, Luna,” Violet said, starting to open her voice, before she was mostly silently listening. Violet was the one who always opened the topic and livened up the atmosphere. However, this time there was something different about her.

“Yes?” Aluna said, a sweet smile never fading from her face.

“You really aren’t friends with Kalea anymore, are you?”

The question turned out to be able to fade Aluna’s smile, the girl now looked uncomfortable and did her best not to look at Violet for too long. “You still don’t believe me?”

“That’s not it, you know how worried we are about you. We don’t want you to get trapped by that cent,” Violet said, putting on an artificially worried expression.

“I’m not really friends with her anymore. Don’t worry, I’d rather be friends with you guys anyway,” Aluna replied back smiling so sweetly that her eyes narrowed like crescents.

.....

“Really? I’m glad then,” Georgia replied, no less sweetly, to Aluna’s smile. Compared to the others, she actually preferred not to interfere, even though Violet forced her to pretend in front of Aluna.

“But Luna, before the news spread, did you know first?” Tina asked with a flash that made Aluna freeze.

As if the secret was already known.

“Do you know who the culprit is?” Mia added.

“Why are you asking me? I also don’t know who the person who spread the news was because I was very surprised,” Aluna replied as she reached for her drink and took a small sip.

“Weren’t you very close to him before? We also often told you about Kalea getting closer to Zeline. You didn’t know that at all?” Violet asked persistently.

They now seemed to be cornering Aluna, making Aluna feel threatened and afraid of saying the wrong thing.

“I-I also asked her! Of course I’m worried, because even so, Lea was once my best friend,” Aluna replied slowly; her gaze became sad and her eyes began to glaze over. “But she really hid everything perfectly, that’s why I was very disappointed and chose not to be friends with her anymore,” Aluna continued to perfect her acting in front of Violet and the others.

Georgia looked concerned, she still thought that Aluna was a good girl. However, Tina, Mia, and Violet did not think that way. They exchanged glances as if sending signals to each other that they did not trust Aluna at all.

Yesterday, Tina also showed the photo she took when Aluna secretly posted Kalea’s news on the messaging board.

“Are you sure?” Violet asked again, still looking at Aluna suspiciously.

Aluna gasped, the tears that had been welling up in her eyes were already falling. “You don’t believe me? Why did you suddenly become like this?” When Aluna inquired, her voice became hoarse; she held it back because the more she spoke, the more tears would flow.

“Luna, you can talk honestly to us. It’s okay, we will always be with you,” Mia said soothingly as she put her arm around Aluna’s shoulders and patted her gently.

Aluna looked down and then wiped her tears, her shoulders were shaking due to the crying that had not ended. “I don’t understand, I’ve been telling you the truth for a long time. But it seems like you don’t believe me.”

Georgia looked at Aluna sadly, she could not bear it. Indeed, the girl was different from her friends. However, at this time she could not defend Aluna because of the plans made by her friends.

“I thought you knew that Kalea had a sugar daddy, and you liked that guy,” Tina teased deliberately, because she wanted to know how Aluna’s expression changed after this.

And sure enough, Aluna looked up with a surprised look on her face and stared at Tina. “Do you think I’m that despicable?” Aluna asked.

“I just-”

Aluna cried again and now it was louder, making the people in the cafe turn their attention to their table. Of course, this made Violet, Tina, Mia, and Georgia panic. Tina and Violet whispered apologies to the visitors because of the noise that came from one of their friends. Meanwhile, Mia and Georgia continued to calm Aluna down so she would not cry anymore.

“Please, don’t talk about it anymore. I don’t want ...,” Aluna pleaded in a voice that was so heartbreaking.

Georgia hugged Aluna from the side, trying to calm her down, just like Mia did. Violet and Tina could only sigh resignedly, they had to give in and end up helping to calm Aluna and apologize for making the girl depressed.

Unfortunately, they did not get a definite answer and were even more suspicious of Aluna.

“What’s wrong, Georg? Why is your face wrinkled? Didn’t you iron it first thing in the morning?” asked Violet, puzzled when she saw that one of her best friends had been moody all day.

Georgia frowned, not understanding. “Ironing?”

“Your face.”

“Stupid,” Mia scolded, smacking Violet lightly on the arm for talking out of turn.

Normally, Georgia would laugh when Violet gave her any kind of joke. This time, however, Georgia remained gloomy as she stared at her phone screen. Mia and Violet are puzzled, because Georgia is not usually like this.

“Sorry for the long wait~” Aluna said as she left the classroom with Tina. They planned to eat together in the cafeteria, so the three waited for Aluna and Tina outside the classroom.

“What’s wrong? Why are you guys silent?” Aluna asked confused, looking at her three friends in turn, Tina was also confused.

“No, it’s okay, Luna. Let’s go to the cafeteria,” Georgia invited while holding Aluna’s hand, her face which was originally gloomy, was no longer visible and replaced by the girl’s friendly smile.

They finally made their way to the cafeteria, the topic always there to light up the atmosphere among the five girls. Although Mia and Violet still felt there was something strange about Georgia.

While in the corridor, Aluna’s eyes fell on a man who was walking alone in the opposite direction to her. Her smile growing, she waved and called out, “Thomas!”

The man also realized that in front of him there was a girl calling his name. Thomas smiled as he accelerated his steps closer to the group of women, more precisely to Aluna.

“Hey, are you guys in the mood for the cafeteria?” Thomas asked kindly looking at the five girls one by one. “Oh, hi, Georg,” he also greeted Georgia, who looked embarrassed.

“Hi, Thomas.”

“Thomas! You know who just called you, right?”

Thomas chuckled and nodded. “Of course I know. It was you, right, Luna?”

Aluna nodded enthusiastically, her sweet smile etched on the girl’s face. And at that moment, for some reason, Thomas only talked to Aluna, as if the other four girls were just dust that did not need to be considered.

“Yesterday, you came home safely, right?” Aluna asked Thomas.

“Haha, of course.”

“Oh, I also want to return the shirt you lent me yesterday. I’m really grateful! Maybe if it wasn’t for you, I don’t know when I’d be able to go home in the pouring rain,” Aluna said as she pursed her lips with sadness and pitiable eyes like a cihuahua dog.

“Just relax, I also can’t bear to see you standing there alone,” Thomas replied.

Georgia, on the other hand, was staring at the two with a hurt look. Their conversation was completely incomprehensible to her, not even Violet, Tina, and Mia knew anything about Aluna suddenly getting close to Thomas.

Her suspicions grew, and she could not think positively anymore. What did Aluna and Thomas do? 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Violet’s eyes rounded, she just realized that yesterday Thomas should have been with Georgia, even though her friend had told her enthusiastically about the plans they made that day. However, what did she hear this time? Why was Aluna with the man Georgia liked.

“Bye-bye! Meet me back home later!” Aluna exclaimed as she waved after Thomas got further away from her. “Ah, guys, sorry. You guys waited so long, huh,” she said, feeling guilty for her four friends.

Georgia only forced a smile, then replied, “It’s okay, Luna. I think your conversation was quite important.”

“Hm? Ah, not really! Actually, I just wanted to return his shirt!” Aluna said as she smiled widely, completely unaware of how her friends’ expressions had changed.

“Why were you with Thomas yesterday?” Violet asked, looking coldly at Aluna.

“Eh?”

“Didn’t you know Thomas was supposed to have an appointment with Georg yesterday? You didn’t even tell us at all.”
