Chapter 265 Devil in disguise.
"What am I missing here?"
That voice halted Arwen in her tracks. Her brows tugged together and she quickly stepped sideways to confirm that she wasn't imagining things.
And she wasn't.
She knew it the moment she caught sight of Gianna standing there, her narrowed gaze fixed on them.
"Seems like I wasn't imagining things, and you are actually here," Arwen said, already crossing the distance to reach her friend.
She didn't realize how much she had missed her until she saw her standing there finally in front of her.
Gianna narrowed her gaze further. "Given I am present here, standing right in front of you, and responding to you, it should be obvious. But if you still feel unsure, let me hug you and speak closer to your ear to help you confirm it."
Without waiting for a response, Gianna closed the distance between them and embraced Arwen tightly.
"I missed you, Wenna," Gianna said, her voice coming laced with all the emotion she had bottled up during her time away.
Arwen smiled softly, her voice warm as she responded, "I missed you too, Anna."
And at that, Gianna at once pulled away, squinting her eyes at her. "Really? Then why don't I feel it?" she teased. "Some people seem to have become more and more engrossed in their husbands, completely forgetting about their best friend stuck abroad."
"Do we have a fangirl here/" she asked. "Amy, have you already met him?"
Amelia shook her head. "I haven't but I am excited. Senior Sister said he would be coming to meet us all later."
"Great, then hold on your horses till then. What if he isn't as good as your Senior Sister says? After all, your Senior Sister doesn't have much experience in men. Over the years she was stuck with Ryan, and when she finally got free, she got herself another one. What if he is no different?"
Amelia paused and at that time, Eira spoke. Her voice came laced with strong conviction. "I feel like he is different from Mr. Foster. If not, Senior Sister would seem to be as happy as she looks right now. I mean I have never seen her like this before, not even on her best days."
Gianna changed her position to look at Arwen from different angles before asking, "How is she looking different? She is looking as if I have left her, just her legs seem to have gotten better."
Though she said that, it was just to tease Arwen more. Otherwise, no on can see the changes in Arwen better than her. This side of Arwen wasn't new to her. But it was surely something that she thought Arwen lost back in time. Seeing her back like she once was quite relieving.
And she would never fall back to give the credit to the person if it's truly him who brought this side back in Arwen.
"Of course, my legs have recovered better," Arwen said proudly. "He had taken care of it with several types of herbs and whatnot."
Gianna was about to speak when she heard Carl speak from behind, adding his part same as Amelia and Eira.
"No matter how he is, I just hope, he is better than Mr. Foster. He should be more caring and gentle towards Senior Sister. Not like Mr. Foster, who almost scared us all earlier. We almost thought he did something to hurt her."
Gianna paused at that. With a frown, she asked, "Wait, what? Ryan came here?"
