Chapter 359: Dormitory
Chapter 359: Dormitory
Lauren was deep in thought. Could Fiona's escape have something to do with the two campus violence incidents?
After all, Fiona had died because of campus violence.
Perhaps she was unwilling to be the only one, so she wanted to drag more people down with her?
Before Lauren could figure out, the person they were waiting for had already arrived.
"Are you Lauren?"
"Yes! Hello, I'm Lauren and he is Bryce." Lauren pointed at Bryce.
Bryce said, "I have a mouth to introduce myself!"
"Your brother has already arranged a dormitory for you. Come with me."
Bryce followed behind Lauren.
Noticing Lauren's gaze, Bryce hurriedly explained, "What?! It was Franklin who instructed me to keep an eye on you until you arrived safely. I was just following orders."
Bryce was obviously concerned about her, but he was too stubborn to admit it.
It was exactly the same as how Franklin and Quinn had treated Lauren in the beginning.
However, Lauren did not expose Bryce. She only ridiculed him in her heart, as she felt his care and concern were rather inconsistent.
Why was he so worried about her now? Why did he run away after class? ! Did he not care about her lunch?!
The person brought Lauren and Bryce to another dormitory area. Bryce was amazed as he followed behind. The greenery in this dormitory area was excellent, and the decorations were exquisite.
It was not until they opened the door of Lauren's dormitory that Bryce knew what it meant to say there was always something better. Indeed there were even more exquisite dormitories than his!
Lauren's dormitory wasn't shared with anyone else. It had a small bedroom and a living room. Although it was small, it was well-equipped. There was a sofa, a coffee table, and more.
"How is this a dormitory? It can be a home!" Bryce whispered with a little jealousy.
The man explained, "This is our dormitory for teachers. It happens to be available, so I'll let Lauren rest here for a while. Please don't mind the shabby environment."
Bryce looked around and said, "You called this place shabby?"
If that was the case, then the students' dormitory would be no different from a garbage dump.
Franklin called again, and Lauren picked up the call.
"Franklin! I've already arrived at the dormitory. This dormitory is so beautiful. There's a big bed and a big sofa!"
"Great! Where's your third brother? Is he with you?"
Lauren looked up at Bryce. She had never called Bryce that before.
Bryce replied loudly, "Franklin, I'm here. I followed your instructions and didn't dare to run around."
"Hmm, why don't you rest in this dormitory with Lauren? Isn't there a big sofa? You can just rest on the sofa. I'm not at ease with Lauren being there alone."
"Alright, it's decided then. There's an international call coming in. I'll hang up first."
Bryce and Lauren were both on the phone when Franklin called. He hung up before Bryce could say anything. Both Lauren and Bryce stared at each other as they heard the beeping sound from the other end of the phone.
"Since Franklin said so, you can rest here. You can sleep on the bed while I sleep on the sofa."
Lauren also wanted to have a companion. Otherwise, it would be too boring.
In the past, she had never been alone, as she always had someone by her side.
Bryce stretched lazily and said, "Alright, you can go and sleep on the bed. I'll just rest here on the sofa for a while."
After saying that, he lay down on the sofa. Fortunately, the sofa was really big and could accommodate his long legs. It was quite comfortable to lie down on. It was no different from a bed.
Bryce folded his hands and placed them behind his head as a pillow. Then, he turned his head to look around.
"The only problem with this dormitory is that it doesn't have a refrigerator, so we can't have food."
Lauren asked, "Didn't you just have lunch? Now you're already thinking about food. Who's the glutton?"
Bryce rubbed his stomach and asked in confusion, "Did I just have lunch? What did I eat? I can't remember. Anyway, my stomach feels empty now, and I'm a little hungry."
Lauren couldn't be bothered with him. She had eaten her fill and was still sleepy, so she went back to her room to rest on her bed.
The first class in the afternoon started at two o'clock, which meant that they had to get up at one forty-five.
Bryce and Lauren were rubbing their eyes as they arrived at the class.
The first class in the afternoon was held in the third year of high school. It was a self-study class, but this self-study class was also Mr. Zander's math quiz class, so Lauren also attended it.
However, they realized that something was not right when they arrived for the class.
