Chapter 20

  Lana Castroff

  I walked into the ballroom where the charity auction was held and I tried to smile to some people that I know. One of the staff asked me for my auction number and she led me towards my table. I sat down and started to look around.

  Phoenix will definitely enter the scene sooner or later but I'm not going to focus on him tonight. I want to focus on Julie, I want to know what is her next move. I looked around and saw Finn talking to some people but I couldn't find Julie.

  Don't tell me that she's not here.

  The event started and they presented the first painting. I decided to go to the restroom as I observed people around. I bumped into someone and turned to see Phoenix.

  "Hey.. where are you going?" He whispered.

  "Restroom." I said and he gave me a nod before letting me go. I walked out from the ballroom towards the restroom when I saw Julie currently calling someone. I quitely walked towards her and tried to listen to her conversation.
