Rudy moved his face close to Rize's face and kissed her on the lips, or he would have if he hadn't heard someone approaching the office.

He jerked his leg and made the book fall from his lap. And the moment her office door opened, he picked up the book and pretended to be oblivious.

However, he wasn't happy after seeing the person at the door. It was the teacher who had insulted Rudy when he was in the vampire world.

"What's going on here?" the teacher asked.

Rize was facing her back to the door, so she had time to wipe her tears.

"Miss Rize was helping me out with the studies," Rudy responded.

"You can do that in the staffroom too."

"Indeed. But some people in the staffroom don't know how to mind their own business," Rudy remarked.

"I didn't ask you," the teacher retorted. "Miss Rize, you should know that you are not allowed to use your office for such things, right?"

Rize turned around and said, "I am."
