Chương 109: Temptation

"Where is Chidi?" Kathleen asked, looking around the living room like she was looking for him.

"He has retired for the night. Why?" Pete asked curiously. 

Kathleen made her face fall like she was disappointed, "Nothing. Was just hoping I'd see him." She said with sigh making Pete's brows pull together in a frown.

Kathleen stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say or do, now that neither Chidi nor Amanda were... Speaking of Amanda, she raised her head to look at him, "Uhm, what about Amanda? How is she? Has she done her assignments?"
