Tiana said right away, “The dorm setup here really isn’t practical. Austin, you’re not feeling well, so it’s totally understandable you can’t climb up.
She smiled and added, “How about i amange a new room for you later 71’ll be easier for you to rest”
Xanderstood right behind his aunt, rolling his eyes.
He thought bitterly, “My proud, no nonsense aunt has never been this attentive to anyone except Mr. Drake. Well, and Cameron. But that little troublemaker actually deserves respect.
“Why does this sickly guy get special treatment? Just because he’s good at playing the victian? Please, I’m not stupid. Austin is totally setting me up. Seriously, how sneaky he is
Austin shook his head. “No need, Ms. Murphy. I’ll just stay here.”
He thought, As long as Cany’s here, I’m not going anywhere.
