Chapter 204

Since Lily had started causing trouble again, Xavier hadn't allowed Emma to come over. The entire situation would be exposed if Emma discovered that Lily no longer lived there.

"I don't care where she is. What matters is that I shouldn't be here!" Lily stood up, brushing off her pants. "I'm leaving now."
