"Was that really necessary?"
Ayana asked as soon as they were out of sight. Her gaze darted around the hallway lined with multiple doors before landing on the casually whistling young master, who clearly understood the blunder he had just made in the banquet hall.
"Of course!" Matt spun around to face her, his grin wide and unapologetic. "I can only imagine how twisted my dear cousin's face must look right now." He snickered mischievously, turning back to walk ahead with both hands shoved into his pockets.
''You're taunting her.'' Ayana inwardly shook her head at his antics. ''Aren't you afraid she would retaliate?''
''Pfft!'' Matt laughed as though her words were hilarious. ''She won't have time to retaliate when she will be struggling to save herself.'' He tilted his head back at her with a knowing smirk.
''.....'' Well, Ayana couldn't deny that. This birthday banquet was going to be an unforgettable, according to his words.
