Chapter 428: The Gentle Pat-On-The-Head Kill_1

In front of a grand audience, with over a thousand students watching, Layne Reid made a heartfelt confession, casting himself as the prince of devotion.

For students who enjoyed a spectacle and were still innocent at heart, they naturally hoped for a joyous and satisfying conclusion. Therefore, everyone, irrespective of whether they knew Layne Reid or whether Lillian Frost liked him, followed suit and shouted along.

The students might have had good intentions, but Lillian Frost was embarrassed.

If she agreed, then Layne Reid would get his way; if she didn't, with Layne Reid's earnest demeanor, wouldn't it seem like she didn't appreciate what was good? If she harshly turned him down, she feared many would accuse her of pretending to be above it all.

Lillian Frost could not possibly agree to Layne Reid, even if it meant damaging her own image; it was utterly out of the question!
