A Deal With The Villainess
I was dumbfounded at Layla's words. "Huh?"
"I'm not buying that. If you are trying to-"
"Why do you think all the girls are squirming in your presence,?"
Ugh, I really wish she would stop calling me 'dear Edward'.
"W-Well, they are scared…"
"Scared?" Layla burst out laughing.
"You're smart in most areas, but you really don't get how people feel."
She flicked my forehead.
[<I'm not sure who the man is and woman anymore.>]
"E-Enough, Layla."
I stood up, feeling a bit embarrassed.
I had to keep my pride in check.
[<Your pride is already gone.>]
"Will you please shut up?!"
'And you, Jarvis, I will beat you up!' I thought angrily, still fuming over the lies I had been told for months.
I couldn't believe that the reason girls always seemed to be staring at me wasn't because they were scared. I mean, sure, I'm not ugly, but I didn't think I was anything special.
