Chapter 96: Dinner with the Elders

Music Recommendation: Look at this- Marc Streitenfeld

.

On hearing the name that Maximus uttered, Julie's eyes turned to look at Roman, and she noticed the look in his eyes had hardened. His demeanour turned serious, and his eyes met hers, without saying anything for seconds. 

Realizing Julie had heard the uttered name, Maximus said, "My apologies for disturbing your time together, but we have a guest who wants to meet Rome. I hope you don't mind if I take him for a while, do you?" His words were polite, but she noticed the hidden urgency in his voice. 

"Give me two minutes," remarked Roman, turning to the side where Maximus stood. His friend nodded his head. 

"Goodnight, Julie," Maximus wished her, and Julie wished him back with a small smile on her lips. Maximus stepped out from her dorm, making his way outside, waiting for Roman near the entrance of the girl's Dormitorium.
