Chapter 201

Thalassa paced back and forth in the living room. It had been over an hour since Luisa had gone upstairs after their argument, and Thalassa was really bothered.

Usually, Luisa would call and ask her opinion about what dress to wear or how her make up looked, but she hadn't called her tonight.

With a sigh, Thalassa climbed the stairs and knocked on Luisa's bedroom door.

"Luisa, do you need my help with anything?" she asked.

"No, thanks," came the curt reply.

Thalassa pressed her lips together in frustration. Turning, she made her way back downstairs. Just as she reached the bottom, the doorbell rang.

She walked over and opened it to find Alden standing there with an awkward smile.

"Hey, Thalassa," he greeted. "Is Luisa ready?"

"I'll go get her for you "

Before she could call for Luisa, her friend appeared at the top of the stairs and began descending, her eyes lighting up when she saw Alden.

Alden's gaze never left Luisa. "You look gorgeous," he whispered.

Luisa blushed slightly and smiled. "Thank you."

Alden stepped closer, his expression shifting as he extended his hand to her. "Can we go?" he asked, but his tone was distant, distracted.

Luisa frowned. "Is something wrong?"
