Chapter 75: Circumstances

" What was that, you ice queen? "

Eli's joyous yet teasing voice made Ava slightly nervous.

" What's what? "

Ava tried to get rid of Eli, but couldn't since she was on her back.

" I've been your friend since we were young. Do you think I wouldn't notice? "

While Eli and Ava were doing wrestling Eric thought It'd be best for him to leave unannounced and quietly left two friends to strangle each other.

" ' We should give him the gold, since he pretty much defeated the boss alone ' "

Quoting Ava's words Eli got off her back and looked straight at her face.

" It's simple manners... "

Like a programmed robot Ava answered without any change in her expression.

" Okay, then why did you suddenly get angry after Leo won the fight? "

Eli's curled up lips rose even higher while Ava's cold facade started cracking apart.

" Because.... "

Ava herself didn't know the exact reason.

' Was it because he didn't tell me which university he'll go to? '
