After thinking things through, Anna"s eyes widened, then she asked, "Are you perhaps related to Keila Jones?" Though Anna knows that it"s only a coincidence that there is someone not related have the same last name as her teacher, but she can"t help but ask.Her reason is because of the fact that there is a past between her uncle Alfonso and her teacher.
Hearing that name, May"s face stiffened. It took her a few seconds to reply. "Yes. She"s my older sister." Anna noticed that May"s expression says that she"s uncomfortable talking about Keila. "How do you know her?"
In May"s mind, she thinks that Alfonso told Anna about her sister. With that, she is somewhat disheartened. "How can he talks about my sister to other people, but never once mentioned me?" That is the question running in May"s mind.
"She"s my cla.s.s advisor," Anna spoke, then she changes the subject. She does not want to continue talking about her teacher when it"s clear that May doesn"t want to talk about it. "I"m Anna Coleman. It"s very nice to meet you, Miss May." Anna said with a smile on her face.
May is not dense, she knows that Anna noticed that she doesn"t like to talk about her sister, and she thought that it was very considerate of Anna. "For some reason, I feel like I"m the bad guy here."
"A Coleman?!" May said in a shocking voice, and everyone turns their attention to them.
"You know my family?" Even though the Coleman family is known to around the globe, that does not mean everyone in the globe knows about her family. That"s why Anna asked the question.
"Of course! Silly girl, your family is known worldwide. How can I not know your family name? And besides, I grew up in the country that you were born in, also my sister personally know your father, it"s hard for me not to know them at all." Now that May is looking at Anna more closely, she can see the similarities between Anna and Arion.
She may not be close to Arion Coleman just like her sister does, but it did not mean that she hasn"t had a conversation or two with him and Mary.
"You"re Anna Coleman? Goodness! I heard that the princess of that family is a beauty, but I didn"t think you would be this beautiful!" One of the models exaggerated. Usually, the people who would say such words to Anna are the people who like her get on her good side because they have motives, but these models, who work alongside her uncle Alfonso, Anna can"t feel any motives in them. Anna refreshed by that fact.
"I"m flattered, but I don"t think I deserve that kind of compliment." Anna shyly said to them, and Kyle can only sigh at the way she answered.
"Darling, you"re being way too humble! You should not be like that! You"re a Coleman, and as far as I know, a Coleman wouldn"t be that humble." If Anna were to brag about her beauty to her, May would not mind because she can tell that Anna is a good girl. Compare to Anna"s father, who likes to brag about his looks all the time back then, she thinks that Anna should not be allowed to be a humble person.
"Yes! Yes! May is right!" Hearing that kind of response from the other models, Anna feels even shyer now.
Now, May"s eyesight has no landed at the little in Anna"s arms. "What"s this little guy"s name?" She asked.
May stared at the little guy, she is trying to find a similarity between him and her sister. Since she and her sister haven"t had a talk for almost five years now, she thought that there is a possibility for her sister to be this little guy"s mother because her sister is the woman who had an intimate relations.h.i.+p with Alfonso.
No matter where she looks, she sees no evidence that this little guy"s mother is her sister. But her heart still can"t calm down. "It didn"t matter. There is still a possibility." May inwardly said.
"His name is Alexandre Dreyar," Anna said with a smile. She looked like a proud big sister introducing her adorable little brother to other people.
May"s movements paused when she heard the little guy"s name. "Is it possible or this is just a coincidence?" May inwardly asked. Years ago, May had a talk with her sister, she asked her what kind of name did she want when she will have a kid, and the name Alexandre is one of the names her sister said to her.
Seeing that May is having deep thoughts, Anna somehow doesn"t know what to say. "Is she alright?"
Noticing that she is acting differently, May immediately changes her mood. She doesn"t want to look like she doesn"t like Alexandre, or else Anna might say something to Alfonso and she does not want that to happen.
She wants to ask who is Alexandre"s mother, but she doesn"t have the courage to do so. Currently, she is dying on the inside.
"That name sounds so n.o.ble, but it suits him well, after all, he is the son of "The King of the Fas.h.i.+on Industry.""
After some time of talking about Alexandre, May glanced at the young man next to Anna. May has a slight idea of who he is, but she is not going to guess. She would like him to introduce himself. "And who might you be, handsome young man." She said with a playful smile.
"Kyle Robertson." Unlike Anna, Kyle didn"t give May a smile. He would not dare to smile in front of anybody else other than Anna. His smile and his gentle and sweet tone of voice only belong to his girl.
"A Robertson. You are nothing like your mother and father. Well, a little bit of your mother, but still nothing like them. You"re so cold. How can you even be friends with this guy, Anna?" Unlike any other girls, May is not the type to flirt to handsome guys, except for Alfonso, of course. She instead likes to act cold towards them, but for some reason, she can"t act like the way she uses to.
"Well..."
May is waiting for Anna to finish her sentence, but when she noticed the slight blush on Anna"s face and the way Kyle is looking at Anna, her old teenage self is rising to the surface. "What"s this? Teenage love? Oh. My. Goodness. So cute!"
May wanted to tease the two, but she refrained herself and suddenly declared. "No! I don"t like you!" She said to Kyle, and that surprised everyone who is near them.
"Excuse me?" Kyle asked in a confused tone. For the first time in his life, someone actually hates him in his first meeting with someone. Usually, where it"s young or old women would actually say that they like him, but this is genuinely a shock to him.
"You heard me. I. Don"t. Like. You." May emphasizes each of her words. "I don"t like you to be Anna"s boyfriend."
When the other models heard that, they immediately knew what May is scheming at. And they could not help themselves but join the fun.
"I second the motion." Said one of the models. "You are not worthy of this beautiful young girl."
"Handsome guys like you are not trustworthy."
"Yeah! Handsome guys like you have a lot of admirers around, and for Anna to be around you, she will be targeted. Poor girl."
"Anna, do you want me to introduce you to a better man?" May sincerely asked.
Kyle has no idea what is going on, but May and her friends are now starting to get on his nerves. He is only here, standing quietly while listening to everything that Anna and May are saying. But to hear that he is not worthy of Anna all of a sudden is triggering him.
"N-No, thank you," Anna replied. She also has no idea what gotten into them all of a sudden, but she knows for a fact that Kyle is now not in a good mood.
"Me? Not worthy of her?" Kyle asked in a menacing tone, and that sends s.h.i.+vers to Anna and the others" spine. "If I am not worthy of her, then no one else is worthy of her. After all, I do have everything that any ladies wanted to have in a man. And no man can ever compete with me."
May and her friends were speechless when they heard that. They wanted to laugh, but they can"t. Kyle sounded so serious that they don"t have the heart to laugh at him. They expected him to get angry, but to think this is the kind of response they are getting from him, is truly a shock for them.
As for Anna, she became speechless. She knows that Kyle has a bit of a narcissistic side, but to hear him say all that, she can"t find the right words to say to him.
"Goodness. He"s adorable, right?" May asked, then her friends nodded in agreement.
