Chapter 76: 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 who the woman is 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.
