Haruna and Hannah were openly smug now, exchanging satisfied glances. They both knew this was my doing.
Ruth forced a fake smile and tried to save face. "He… he must have some important emergency. Family business stuff, you know…"
Alice looked at Lucas and said quietly, "We should go now, too."
We all nodded. Since most of them were rich kids, they had come in their own cars. One by one, they started leaving.
As Stella brought the Rolls-Royce around to pick us up, I noticed Priyanka still standing near the entrance, looking a bit awkward.
"Priyanka… do you want us to drop you somewhere?" I asked politely.
Priyanka shook her head with a small smile. "No, thank you. My mom said she would pick me up. She should be here any minute now."
Just as she finished speaking, a sleek black Audi A8 pulled up smoothly and stopped right in front of us.
