Chapter 203 - A stupid and rude man (1/2)

Harry looked at his phone in shock. He was still unable to comprehend what just happened. Did she just end their conversation in the middle of talking?

Why did she do that when they were not done yet?

He groaned, throwing the phone onto the bed and stood up. He stormed toward the kitchen, shocking the other servants when he walked so fast passing them. A maid almost fell down when she almost tripped on her own foot. All she could feel was cool wind and she was so stunned she stepped backwards.

Harry ignored them. He needed something to soothe the fire in his heart. He did not want to lose his temper toward Ryn but he was so frustrated with her inability to understand his feeling.

He thought he had shown quite a direct signal to her but she kept playing dumb. He tried to break into the topic but she quickly changed into another topic.

As if she refused to get into the idea of them together.

But how could it be?

His walking suddenly stopped. He frowned.

It would not be like what he just thought, right? She would not avoid him, would she?

No. She would not deliberately ignore him and his feeling. It must be because she was so focused on her study and work that she did not notice all the signals he sent. That must be it.

He nodded at the thought, now a bit happy because he decided she was not trying to avoid him but was too absent-minded to understand. She was that kind of innocent girl.

Instead of heading toward the kitchen to get the drink, Harry changed the direction toward the living room, not, he was not going to sit there but more like checking whether his mother was there. He wanted to ask whether she could help him with something.

But his mother was not there. In fact, the living room was full of girls.

He tried not to groan seeing so many sparkled eyes looking at him. He gave a sheepish smile and quickly headed out of the house.

”Harry, where are you going?” Mia asked, standing up to catch him but he was faster.

He needed to escape before her friends started to surround him with their small squeaky voices and weird attitude. They spooked him out. All of Mia's friends spooked him out.

He randomly chose a car and quickly drove away.

Need to stay out of the house until tonight. Then it was safe to return home.

*~*~*~*

Ryn rested her hands on her laps. She watched Mika worriedly. Her best friend was still angry. Ryn looked down at her hands. They were clutching tight, whitened. She was worried about Mika's mental condition.

Had Jeremy lost his mind? Had he gone crazy? Had he forgotten about Mika's mental health?

”Are you okay, babe?” Ryn asked carefully when Mika finally reduced the car speed. She did not dare to comment when Mika drove quite fast, like her usual speed.

”Hmm...”

”If you are still angry, we can go to the mall and eat ice cream.... or play bowling...” Ryn suggested. She would rather lose in the bowling game rather than watching her best friend dangering herself driving like a devil.

”Don't want,” Mika replied shortly.

”Why don't we go to the hill or a beach so you can scream your heart out?” Ryn suggested again. She tried not to hold onto the dashboard in worry. She did not want Mika to notice how anxious she was right now.

Oh, how she wished she could turn the time back so she could call Jeremy first before they left so he would not come 'barking' like just now. She should tell him not to come disturbing Mika's mind and emotion.

Who was the one having to sooth Mika's temper? She. She was the one who had to do this and she also could not guarantee she would succeed. It was a 50-50.

”Mika, I know you are angry right now and I admit he can be stupid sometimes...” Ryn tried again. ”But don't you think it is better to find an outlet to let go of all your frustration?”

Mika glanced at her but did not give any answer.

Ryn sank her white upper teeth to the bottom lip. What should she do now?

She took out her phone, but before she called the person, she looked back at the fuming Mika.

”Do you... want to talk with Jason?” she tried again.

No answer. Mika did not bother to say anything. All she could see right now was haze so red, everything turned red. That stupid brother thought he could order Ryn around. Ryn did not belong to him. Even if they became boyfriend and girlfriend, Ryn still did not belong to him.

”Mika?” Ryn looked at her best friend worriedly when she felt something wrong.
