Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1311

Maggie laughed through her tears at Wilson's words. Her mind was still spinning with relief. She was embarrassed about her earlier foolish notions and didn't know what to say.

Wilson didn't want to put Maggie on the spot. He smiled and broke the tense silence. "Well, the dining hall is serving lunch now. You look like you could use a bite to eat."

"Okay, thank you, Wilson. Bye! See you later!" Maggie replied as she hugged him in relief. And then she strode away towards her dorm. The spring had crept back into her step. She had skipped a class because Edgar had just turned up at her school and the chief monitor had asked her to come to his office.

Benjamin and Monica hadn't come to the class either. They stopped Maggie on her way back to the dorm. They crossed their arms and stamped their feet, acting like two rascals.

"Maggie, come clean to us, or you'll be punished!" Monica gnashed her teeth as she excitedly harangued Maggie for details. She sounded like the chief monitor.

"I can't believe that you didn't tell us you already had a boyfriend! You kept us in the dark all this time! It makes us really sad," Benjamin agreed, pretending to be wiping tears away.

Maggie rolled her eyes at him when she heard this. "What are you talking about? Are you playing in a drama?" Maggie asked, talking her palm to her face and shaking her head. "Okay, okay. I was wrong. I'm sorry. I'm hungry. Let's go to the dining hall. I'll buy your lunch. Then, I'll clear it up for you," she added, comforting them.

"That sounds better. Let's go!" Monica said, her puckish grin widening.

Maggie followed after Monica, laughing softly and taking her hands in hers. "Honey, don't be mad, okay? I know what I did was wrong. Let me make it up to you. You can eat whatever you want. Just forgive me," she said, giving Monica a roguish wink.

"Do you want me to forgive you? It depends on what you'll buy for me," Monica replied as she winked at Benjamin.
