82-My Sister Is His Girlfriend Now

“Don’t look all surprised, I was just joking,” the instant he smirked, I rolled my eyes and looked away from his face.

He was a shameless man to still be able to look me in the eye and smirk after what he tried doing to me back in his office.

“Thank you for inviting us,” Maynard replied a bit blandly before he tightened his grip around my hand and walked me out of the pantry.

He didn’t even ask for the details from Mr. Tripper. Once we passed by the hallway, I expected Maynard to comment something but he didn’t until we were in the room again.

Lazlo was on the phone with Jessica and Thiago was just lying in the bed and playing with a ball that he would throw up, hit the ceiling, and catch again.

“You two were gone for hours,” Thiago commented sarcastically.

“We brought snacks.” Maynard set the snack on the table and Lazlo got up from the resting position to get his hands on the pack of Twinkies.

“And we also ran into Mr. Tripper!” Maynard sat down on a chair to munch on Snickers.

“I hope you beat him up.” Thiago stopped throwing the ball and turned his neck to watch Maynard stare back at him. “What? Didn’ the try to touch your mate?” he questioned Maynard’s protectiveness in regards to me.

“Don’t tell me you let him go just like that?” Thiago was just playing the role of Maynard from before. This is how they used to criticize Thiago before.

I shook my head as I found it ridiculous that they were busy making each other look bad instead of mending their own reputations.

“I didn’t want to attract trouble for her, ” Maynard said the exact thing I’ve been thinking too.

Getting in trouble with Mr. Tripper wouldn’t be something we can afford right now. We are still under him and he can make things worse for us.

“Oh really! That sucks! You have to think so much to take any action against someone who openly harassed your mate?” Thiago let out a sarcastic laugh and sat on the bed.

Lazlo was watching between them with a smile on his face. Looking at him reminded me of myself when I used to watch my favorite cartoon. He, too, was having fun.

“There is no need to fire him up. I appreciate him for acting wisely.” Stepping closer from behind, I gently tapped my hand on Maynard’s shoulder and it brought the missing smile back across his lips and vanished the smirk from Thiago’s lips.

“So, what was he saying?” Lazlo knew that discussion was over, so he asked Maynard about what happened next.

“The principal has invited us over to his mansion for a celebratory dinner,” As soon as Maynard announced that, Lazlo and Thiago exchanged looks.

I didn’t get a good feeling from them. They looked weirdly concerned.

“Aha!” Lazlo commented, “We will have so much fun.” his words made Maynard let out an awkward laugh and then tilt his face to Lazlo.

“What? We are coming with you guys, right Thiago?” Lazlo invited himself over without asking us first.

Maynard and I both looked uncomfortable, and it compelled Thiago to also take part in whatever Lazlo was planning.
