He was up against a lady who flaunted her beautiful figure in front of him, but Kieran didn't even look at her.
He picked up his spoon, scooped up a portion of the chocolate ice-cream and shoved it into his mouth. While the cocoa flavour spread in his tongue, Kieran only squinted his eyes and looked up.
"Bella? Who? I don't remember," Kieran said.
Bella, who was used to flaunting her body in her 'talking techniques', froze for a moment.
"You are really a joker. We just met not too long ago. Did you forget [Barrier Water]? Besides, our intel tells us you are not a forgetful person."
Bella returned to normal after her little mishap, her tone sounding a little cheeky, as though she was acting coquettishly, but Kieran wasn't moved.
Kieran looked at Bella in silence.
His calm eyes gave Bella tremendous pressure.
Even with the system's blur, Bella instinctively chose to keep away her smile and sat straight, as though she was petrified.
