Chapter 237: She was Vulnerable

"Well… that's because everyone is chill with me so I'm chill with them too." She replied, and spoke my mind, "So those rumours… they don't actively affect you, right?"

"Yes… it's just something they've in their minds. I'm pretty sure if there were no rumours about me, then I would've been getting treated a lot differently."

"You sure?" I asked her, and she replied with the certainty in her voice, "Yes."

I decided not to ask anything further because it sounded like she was quite firm in her beliefs.

"How come you're so unaffected by these rumours?" She asked me with a hint of disbelief in her eyes as I asked her, "Should I be affected?"

"No… I didn't mean that… you know?" She said with an annoyed pout and averted her eyes. I sighed and replied, "I don't find any reason to believe a vague piece of information about someone that clearly has no solid proof to back it up."
