Maybe it was because Hansen had locked Mia up, or because Naomi had found out Mia was moving out with Andre, she didn't pick a fight tonight.
"Everyone's here. Let's start eating," Hansen said, and people started eating.
There were over a dozen dishes on the table, but Mia only touched two in front of her.
One, she wasn't hungry; two, she wanted to keep a low profile, giving Naomi no excuse to pick a fight. She was leaving soon, and she really didn't want to argue with Naomi today.
Halfway through the meal, someone arrived at the front hall. Then, a few unfamiliar voices were heard.
"Hansen, are you home?" A clear voice reached everyone's ears.
More voices followed.
Hansen put down his fork, stood up, and said with a smile, "It's Conner and the guys."
"Conner?" Who's that?
Mia was surprised.
Hansen quickly went out to greet them. Mia glanced at Naomi, who was also looking at her.
Mia's heart started to race. Oh no, they were going to have another argument.
"What are you looking at? Go on out there," Despite Naomi's unfriendly tone, it was a reminder to Mia. "Conner, Mars, Asher, Teddy, they're all Andre's friends."
"Oh, okay."
Mia quickly put down her fork and rushed out. She accidentally knocked a chair, which wobbled and made a noise.
