Chapter 179 The Chaos In Room 316
Panic shot through Milena like a jolt of electricity.
She hadn''t expected Xander to just walk right past her.
''Thank God.''
She risked a quick nce over her shoulder and then bolted toward the school gate like her life depended on it.
''Can''t get exposed. I cannot get exposed.
Meanwhile, Xander stood out on the empty street, scanning every direction for a glimpse of the one person he''d hoped to see. But nothing.
The excitement that had been pumping through his veins moments ago dropped into a pit of disappointment.
He trudged back toward campus, scowling, and pulled out his phone to message Milena.
Xander: [Ms. Wace, were you on campus today? Why didn''t you tell me? I came out to look for you, but you were already gone.]
Milena stared at the message, her chest tightening.
Just the way Xander had rushed out of the cafeteria earlier told her how badly he''d wanted to see "her."
Not her.
Her, as in Cameron-in a skirt.
If Cameron ever dressed like that again, would Xander drop Milena like dead weight?
''What did she ever do to deserve that face? We share the same blood. So why did I get the boring, forgettable features, and she got that?''
Xander: [You''re not far yet, are you?]
Still no reply, so he texted again.
This time, Milena forced herself to respond. Milena: [I''ve already left. Let''s catch up another time.]
Polite. Just warm enough not to seem cold. At least, that was what she thought.
But on Xander''s screen, her message felt like a punch to the gut.
''She doesn''t like me, does she? She really couldn''t care less.''
His expression turned stormy. He mmed back through the dorm building and kicked open the door to Room 316.
The noise startled Austin so badly, he fumbled the bottle of pills in his hand and dropped it.
"Jeez-Xan," he coughed, "what the hell''s gotten into you?"
Xander''s eyes swept the room like aser. "Where''s Cameron?"
Austin blinked. "Cam? He''s not back yet."
"You trying to pick another fight with him?" Elijah looked up from his desk, frowning.
"Mind your own damn business, nerd," Xander snapped. "Go back to solving your equations."
Elijah froze.
He was usually the calmest one in the room, but this? Xander was seriously pushing it.
Elijah stood slowly, his voice even. "Xander, I''m asking you to move out of Room 316. You''re disturbing the entire room."
Xander let out a bark ofughter. "You? Telling me what to do? You think your rich hospital daddy makes you the boss of this ce? Go ahead and try. Let''s see if you can actually get me out of here."
Xander was already on edge, and Elijah pushing back only poured fuel on the fire.
Just then, a cold voice cut through the air behind them.
"You wanna see?"
It was Cameron.
Austin''s head whipped around. "Cam-"
He started shing warning looks, silently beg
Sessfully unlocked!
''Wrong time, wrong ce, man. Get out of here.''
But Cameron nced at him and walked right in anyway.
The second Xander saw her, he stormed over and grabbed Cameron by the
