Nox's Indifference, Shelly Was Attacked Again

When they arrived at the entrance of the residential area, Shelly took Bella from Benjamin's arms and said, "It's okay. I can head back myself. You should go back too."

"You want to drive me away so badly?" Benjamin smiled bitterly.

"I just don't want to waste your time. Don't you have classes all the time?"

"There aren't that many classes to go to in university. I came after class."

"Go back." Shelly still refused Benjamin's company. "You should know what I mean."

As it was not Nox, she could be merciful and spare herself from being direct.

"Didn't we agree to be friends?"

"This is the distance friends should keep."

It meant that if he got any closer, he would be crossing the line.
