Chapter 180: Money is life... (2/2)

Yet,

”Crimson, come here!” Rea said to him. No, her voice was ordering him in an overbearing tone.

Yman, Cinder, and the others gawked.

Princess Liya felt Rea was acting out of herself. This is not the Rea she'd known all along.

”Haha,” Hannah forced a laugh. ”C-could it be…” she didn't want to finish her words as it wasn't proven right or wrong. Maybe she was overthinking it.

Yman stayed on his feet and sighed when the people from the Department of Security said their farewell.

Nonetheless, Jura and Nicholas seemed to find him a little bit familiar.

'Wait, could he be that person?!'

Jura exclaimed in mind.

Nicholas noticed the slight change in Jura's countenance. ”Could it be him?” Although that time, he was wearing a hood. But it wasn't really difficult to recognize him.

Also, in addition to the Lupine girl, his claim that he was that person wasn't just a mindless one.

'Keke, you finally showed up! But wait… he's a cousin of Miss Ella?' Jura pondered. But soon he decided that it was more important to redeem himself.

He might as well get a favorable feeling from Ella if he defeated her cousin.

(Creak!)

The chair made a sudden noise and everyone turned their head towards the cause of it.

”You!”

Yman creased his forehead while his eyebrows curled upward. He wondered why the guy suddenly stood up and shouted while… he was facing him?!

He was puzzled and glanced around him. Maybe he wasn't particularly sneering at him.

Since the people from the Department of Security already left after saying they're sorry to him, there was only him and Cinder left standing to where Jura was sneering.

”Do you know him?” He asked Cinder.

”Eh?” She was taken aback and shook her head in haste. ”No idea, wait! He's staring at you though,” she replied.

”Mm, a weirdo…” he mumbled.

”Puffft…!” Crimson heard Cinder trying to hold her laughter.

Prince Damien squinted his eyes. ”Heh… so she can laugh like that,” he muttered after seeing the wolf-girl's giggle. He stared at the new guy. 'Hmm… I see so that guy must be the reason, huh. Fufu,' he thought.

Crimson stared back at Jura. ”Uhm, are you speaking to me?” He asked him.

'This fool acting like he didn't know what he did!' Jura exclaimed inwardly.

Dots appeared on top of Crimson's head while waiting for his reply.

”What a creep…”

Cinder heard Crimson mumbled. ”Ahaha...” she finally failed to hold her laughter. Her laughing voice reverberated inside the council room.
