Kyra chuckled, noticing her friend's ripe tomato face.
After giving enough attention to his girlfriend, Anthony turned to Oliver who just stood up at the right moment for a bro hug.
Then, he looked at his sister who stood up for a hug. Kyra has long back decided to not hide her relationship with her brothers after she found out they would feel hurt if she hid it.
Anthony hugged his sister and kissed her forehead. "Are you fine?" he asked, observing her face and her emotions.
"I am more than good." Kyra answered before she moved to make a place for her brother to sit beside Jennifer.
No place left, she sat beside Oliver.
"Mom wants to talk to you." Anthony said and after giving a pause he looked at Oliver. "With you as well"
Kyra looked at her brother.
"You told her, didn't you?" she asked.
"About your relationship with Oliver or about the day before yesterday's incident?" Anthony asked.
"The latter!" Kyra answered.
"So, you don't have any problem with mom finding out about your relationship with Oliver?" Anthony asked.
"No, I don't mind. They will find out about it in some or other way but I was hoping that I should be the person to break it to them." Kyra said.
"I was just kidding. She doesn't know anything." Anthony said in a playful voice.
"Idiot!" Kyra muttered as she threw her bag at him.
Anthony managed to catch it and laughed.
"Mom wanted to talk to you as you didn't call for continuous three days." he said.
Then, why did you lie that she wanted to talk to Oliver?" Kyra demanded. She almost had a panic attack as her mother, Catherine Collins is the most protective one of all.
"I didn't lie. She said she wants to talk about something related to research Oliver's research institute is currently doing." Anthony said.
"Oh." Kyra said. She didn't know what else to speak.
"You love teasing your sister, don't you?!" Jennifer chided her boyfriend.
"Of course, I love it! Doesn't every brother love doing it?" he asked, looking at Oliver who just chuckled and nodded his head.
"Don't worry about it darling. I love teasing my girlfriend as well." he said and whispered something in Jennifer's ears making her blush again.
"Shameless." Jennifer muttered, making Anthony laugh again.
Kyra and Oliver chuckled and didn't complain about the PDA that is being thrown at them.
As this is the first time her brother is having a girlfriend, well, the first girlfriend she met, this is the new side of him. It's fascinating.
Same goes with Jennifer too. She is getting blushed for almost everything and currently they are acting like corny teenagers in love. Looking at these guys, Oliver and Kyra felt like they are lot mature.
While the couple are having breakfast, chit chatting and teasing each other like this, almost everyone's eyes are on them.
Two elegant and attractive women and two hot, handsome men in one frame. It is rare to have such a delicious sight.
While few of them returned back to finishing their breakfast, a few others are intently looking at the couple.
It is obvious that Jennifer and the new, richy rich guy are in a romantic relationship just by looking at their actions. But they couldn't put a finger on how this new guy is related to Dr. Miller and Ria (Kyra's fake alias.)
"Maybe Dr. Miller and this guy are friends. They seems close." one of Teressa's minions said.
"That's obvious! What we are curious about is, how exactly is he related to Ria? They seem closer compared to Jennifer and Dr. Miller's relationship with him. They were speaking non stop." Lillian, Teressa's main lackey said.
"Am I the only one who noticed Dr. Miller's and Ria's close interaction? They have been exchanging lovey dovey looks since this guy came. It is as if they are having a double date and they are finding the other couple's PDA cute." one of them who is more observing said, earning only a glare from Teressa.
"It can't be possible! You are just overthinking." Lillian immediately interfered and said. She doesn't want Teressa to get jealous and do something that might cause her a headache.
"This Ria is actually full of surprises. She might not be as innocent and ordinary as we think. Judging by her interaction with this richy rich, hot guy she has to be pretty close to him." Lillian tried to divert the topic.
"Did Oliver really look at Ria in that way? Did that bitch do the same?" Teressa asked, crushing the diet coke can in her hands.
"Hahaha… she was just kidding, Teressa. Don't take her words seriously." Lillian tried to cool Teressa.
"Maybe Ria did. Dr. Miller didn't even give her a look." she added, noticing that Teressa is glaring at Ria (Kyra).
Liliian is actually scared that Teressa might do something to Ria. She heard from someone that Ria has strong connections but is hiding that to have a peaceful work environment. Moreover, someone coincidentally saw her entering the Crescent Gardens, the luxurious society of Elites in a posh sports car.
And, she herself saw that Ria is close to the president's twin grandchildren. They were hugging her when she entered the VVIP floor to check on her patient.
So, Lillian is sure that Ria is someone who shouldn't be messed with. As a true friend, she doesn't want Teressa to get into trouble.
"Then she better be away from my Oliver." Teressa grunted her teeth. Girls around her could only sigh. They are Dr. Miller's fans too but not to this insane level. Yes, they get jealous when someone gets close to him and yes, they love checking him out but they are not like Teressa who thinks that Dr. Miller belongs to her and only her.
They are aware of reality, so they know that Dr. Miller might not look at them let alone become their man. He is too busy to check on everyone and think about them. Only the fated person or someone of his level both intellectually and background wise can get to be with him.
This is one of the reasons Teressa thinks that she can be that one. Although her family background is not as great as Oliver's, she is still hopeful.
"On the bright side, Jennifer is not in your way. She is Dr. Miller's childhood friend and her family are equal as well. I heard that Dr. Miller's sister and grandfather loved her and wanted her to marry Dr. Miller." one of the girls said.
"Really?" Teressa asked. She knows that Jennifer is rich and has a powerful background but she didn't know about this.
"Yes. My brother works for Dr. Miller's sister Ellenora Miller. He somehow heard this from his boss's inner circle." the girl answered.
"You should have told me at first only! I would have befriended Jennifer. I think that bitch Ria got close to Jennifer because of this." Teressa scoffed.

After their breakfast, Anthony followed Kyra and Jennifer to their room. Oliver said he would come later. He told them that he has work to do.
"So, say something about the day before yesterday's. Are you not here because of that?" Kyra is the one who started.
This shocked Anthony. His sister willingly started to talk about this!
He didn't expect this from her. The Kyra he knows is not like this. She would get sad and frustrated to even answer the questions related to her past let alone talk about it openly like this.
"I know that it is an accident. So, I am not going to ask you about it." her brother said as he sat down beside her. Jennifer has wisely left the room to give some personal time for her boyfriend and bestfriend who have so much to talk about.
"Then? Are you here to persuade me to come back to Lindon so nothing like this will ever happen to me again?" Kyra asked.
"To be frank, I gave a serious thought about it, sis. But you stayed in this place for two days without even getting upset. You in fact enjoyed your stay here and gathered courage to reunite with your old friends and even went to the places which hold bad memories. This is a huge progress." Anthony said.
"How do you know all this?" Kyra demanded.
"Oh, don't scold me for this! I was worried about you so I asked my men here to send someone to look after you." Anthony said. He knows what happened yesterday. He knows that Justin was following her all day but didn't take any action as Justin didn't make any move.
And, his subordinate was the person who made the sound that made Kyra and Oliver aware of Justin's stalking.
"Mom actually knows what happened the day before yesterday. She overheard me instructing men, so I had to tell her. And, I am sorry but she knows about you and Oliver too. I didn't want to tell but you know that I can't lie to her if she directly questions me.." Anthony apologized.
