131 Pool of blood- Part 5

Vivian was washing her hands after the meal, taking the towel which the maid offered her, she murmured thanks, turning around to walk to have Jamien walking towards her.

"I didn't know you were a friend of Lady Eleanor," he came to stand in front of her. He looked taller than what she had first noticed. During their first encounter, Vivian hadn't registered his appearance as he wasn't someone she knew or wanted to know of. Her intention had only been to finish her exam and leave quickly that apart from his glasses and shabby clothes, she had failed to notice his red eyes.

"I didn't know you would know anyone here at all," she remarked back to see him smile. Unlike his previous nervous self, he seemed confident with his eyes kept on her unmovingly. He smiled to her in response, pushing his glasses up his nose bridge.
