Chapter 304 - Lost her belief from humanity...

"Woah!! One couple was enough to feed us dogfood. Now two others joined them. Louis, I'm telling you, we're now doomed." Jack sneered at the couples in irritation.

Louis also made faces with him and sniggered, "Humph!! You're here for just only few minutes and already getting annoyed by their sickening romantic behavior. Whereas here I'm handling them from past few months all alone…

Just think about my situation bro.. I'm going to get crazy very soon if I don't get a girlfriend for myself. I really can't tolerate their mocking remarks anymore."

"Well, didn't you have already chosen a girl for yourself? It's just that you're a scared cat who had a fear of rejection that's why you still hadn't propose her yet.. Am I right or not, Louis? Please tell me.." Veronica wiggled her eyebrows at Louis with a smirk playing on her face while Willa and Lucinda just shuffled their laughter.

Reuben, Neil and Henry were also aware about it so they just stared at their respective partners to confirm about their suspicion and when the girls nodded their head confirming, they all gave Louis a lopsided grin..

Jack and Myra understood that there was something going on between these people so they just chose to stay quiet for the time being so that they could ask them later.

They knew that the truth of their suspicious eye locks would eventually come out as the couples couldn't keep it in their stomach for too long..

But for Diana, it was a different case. As soon as she heard that Louis already had a girl in his heart, she didn't know why but her mood got off.

Though she had talked with Louis for few times and met him for few days but she still was comfortable in his presence. She didn't even think twice before letting him know about her past..

And now she didn't want him to have any girl in his mind. She just wanted to speak to him whole day without any worries and have fun like others were having..

The question which was stuck in her throat till now finally slipped out of her mouth as Diana asked, "You already love someone, Louis?"

Everyone specially Louis was amused to hear the direct question from her as they didn't expect this much boldness from her..

Willa thought to relieve the tension between Louis and Diana by clarifying, "Not that he had already fallen in love but yeah…he definitely like her very much. We can tell it just by eyeing his expressions."

Though Diana was a little bit relieved but still thinking about the girl whom Louis liked, Diana felt a pinch of jealousy somewhere in her heart but she soon covered it up with a fake smile.

Veronica and Reuben shared a glance with each other after observing Diana from the moment the topic of Louis having a crush on someone came on and noticed a series of emotions overflowed in Diana's eyes although she tried her best to conceal it.

They nodded at each other as they knew what to do the next when a maid entered and asked them to come for lunch as Mr. Wilson was waiting in the dining room along with Mrs. Wilson.

All of them started descending downstairs but before Louis could leave, Reuben caught his arm and indicated him to stay for a little long there.

After everyone vanished away, Reuben made him sit on the couch and said, "Louis… I know that you have a liking on Diana. And Veronica also told me everything about Diana's past which was one of the worst scenario that we can ever imagine…"

Louis' fist balled up into a tight fist as he banged the center table forcefully with his right hand and snapped, "Yeah.. I know that bro.. and that's why I just want to kill that Frank with my own bare hands. I want to give him the most torturous death."

Reuben patted on his shoulder to calm him down and muttered, "Relax bro... This is not the time to get angry. You can have all of your sweet time to torture Frank till he beg for mercy as you're one of the strongest members of 'Secret 7'.. But I've stopped you to discuss something more important with you…

I just wanted to warn you that Diana had already gone through so much which made her lost her belief from humanity. So it might take some time to trust you completely. So as an elder brother, I'm advising you to take every step towards her very carefully…

At first, make her believe in love and took the chance to appreciate her hard work. Then only she can be a lot more comfortable around you to return back your feelings. Don't rush, okay? Take your sweet time to impress her ." 

"I know bro.. Don't worry about me being an immature person in this matter. I promise you that I'd not put any unnecessary pressure on Diana and let her accustomed to us. But yeah..

I'd still continue my flirting lesson on Diana as she is the only girl in my life now whom I want to be my girlfriend.." Louis described his feelings to his cousin with confidence flowing over his body and decided to go downstairs. 

As they had already done the introductory part, they all joined for lunch and later decided to take a rest for few hours before the party.

----

One and half hour later…

The girls had sent the boys in the other room as they needed there own gossipy time before sleeping.

But after reaching Lucinda's room, they were so much tired that all of them dozed off as soon as their body touched the bed.

Suddenly Veronica's sleep got broken when she heard a knock from the door. Lazily getting up from the bed, Veronica walked towards the door while tip-toeing as she didn't want to disturb her friends..

As soon as she opened the door, Veronica's mouth opened wide in shock after looking at the people standing there with a big smile plastered on their faces…
