Chapter 723 - Testimonies (2/2)

”I'm not!”

…

The next day, Matt watched the two of them banter with a dark expression. He knew that the two of them were engaged and probably, getting married soon. However, it didn't mean he wanted to stay in the same place as them when they were having quarrels like this.

”I can get you two a room if you want, but please stop flirting with each other,” Matt said with a pained expression.

”Uncle can flirt with your girlfriend too,” Kanae interjected before turning her head to look at Kevin again. ”Like I say, I won't tell them something like that. There's no need for you to worry so much.”

Matt rubbed his forehead. He chose not to reply since he didn't have any girlfriend to flirt with. But if these two knew about that, he was pretty sure that the news would travel to Patrick's ear.

After that…. There would be no more peace for him.

Matt guided them to the car and they headed to the hall. For the past few days, Kevin and Kanae only toured the area around the hotel. He had warned them to not venture too far because there were some complicated matters, so the two of them behaved.

They only planned on staying in the capital for a short period of time, so it would be better if they didn't create any trouble. Staying within the area around the hotel was still pretty safe.

”Who will be called first?” Kevin asked.

”It's you,” Matt pointed to Kevin. ”They ask for you to answer their question first while Kanae stay outside for a while. Your role will be reversed after you're finished. If they found inconsistencies in your story, you'll have to stay in this city for a longer period of time.”

”It's not too bad,” Kanae shrugged. ”We can explore more places if we stay here.”

Matt rolled his eyes. ”It's not good at all. There are a lot of power struggles in the capital. If they got wind of your real ability, they might want to rope you into their battle and use you.”

Kevin's eyes narrowed. He was very clear that the two of them have much more power than ordinary people. Even though he had done some investigation regarding the factions in the capital, it was not a good idea to participate in them. There were too many complicated matters.

”We're just ordinary teenagers in their eyes,” Kanae shrugged.

”One glutton at that,” Kevin added.

”Hey! I'm not that much of a glutton.”

”You eat at least 6 times each day while we're in the capital, 3 main meals and 3 snacks. Can you say that it's not a glutton?”

”Well,” Kanae scratched her head. ”Just a bit glutton.”

Matt shook his head lightly. If they only watched the two of them over the past two weeks, there was nothing interesting in what they did. They acted as normal people who had just come here for the first time. If there was anything suspicious about them, they would have gotten into trouble a long time ago.

Looking at the two of them, he could guess why there was no one who bothered them. The way they acted was similar to that of a couple in their honeymoon, except for the fact that they only teased the other party lightly. Even he wondered how Kevin could control himself that well to not make any move to her more than little tease.

Though, the frequency seemed to increase in time.

He glanced outside. ”We've arrived. I'll bring you to the lobby, Kanae. You'll wait there until Kevin gets out.”

”Ok.”

The hall that Matt took them into was extremely large. It was at least twice as large as the one in their city. Numerous paintings filled the cream-colored wall, adding charm to the place. Not many people were there as only one or two people passed by.

Sitting on the chair, Kanae took the time to examine the lobby. She was astonished by the statues and paintings they placed inside. It was as if this was an exhibition place and not a hall for trial.

'The difference in culture and money is awfully clear.'

There were several chairs in the lobby, but she was practically alone. The place didn't seem to be frequently visited by anyone, making it desolate. Still, it was very clean because she couldn't spot any dust anywhere.

”It's rare for a little girl to be called to the hall.”

Hearing that familiar voice, Kanae was stunned.
