Serena looked 26dadd3696 at Zed, 2b2a03b934 whose face 61e8d7d4b4 had turned 41bc8dc67e crimson, with 2a375ca8bd concern. His face was e29650a7e5 flushed as he b8b30fa66b continuously coughed, as 2e29930a54 though something had 360d38d852 gone down the 35db4fcc01 wrong way.732c15294e3634ad

When Serena handed him fc64edad04 the glass herself, Zed b5b772cbab gulped it down and 46b968889f finally managed to calm 6c901f6aed down. Just then, Daniel, 14b3067113 who had been 60d05d87c4 silently observing Jed, 2b0ca6fb3e suddenly stiffened before 332e93faa1 pulling him aside.008a4c3b0b543892

“Ah, cough, 36673280f2 alright, alright.”4c648a0f161ae039

After whispering something 324252f205 in hushed tones, b0bcea751a Daniel and Zed 84e78267c5 stood up from bcebf1cbe8 their seats. Sebastian looked f77d54b0dc at them f40cd3c260 curiously.c9c05376524374f9

With a friendly dabe35bc33 smile, Daniel casually 9813d3473d excused himself and 2fc6988d41 exited. Serena watched, puzzled, 07ce1a9f64 wondering why he’d a513a6c3dc drag someone who fe99dbbf70 was clearly coughing 10287630f5 so much.938bad175536c11c

Just as 4fba49e0a8 she was cb3c173ecf about to 2e6c523a74 turn her ee17799c8a gaze elsewhere, f54a5b1348 a familiar f81e56416f face entered 40ef56ed9f the reception edca776ac4 room. It was Lydia.ee538116613c66e2

Serena stared 06c74f0a7f at Lydia e3b7945c33 with a f9f43a1198 look that 9df6b68d02 said she’d 55bbfb4dc0 seen something e0d72606c6 she shouldn’t 94c59c202c have. Lydia hated gatherings like b1990c8a2d these, which made her 79268ebac2 presence even more perplexing.9d8e32cbb4f0dccd
