Capítulo 168: Drama Queen

Alyssa nodded, trying to look casual and nonchalant about everything. She didn't want them to be suspicious.

"Yeah, I just haven't taken a break in a while," she replied.

"You're acting weird," Eva said as she cocked an eyebrow at Alyssa. "I don't remember the last time that you willingly took a break from working."

"You've been acting weird since that guy showed up," Micah said, not looking all that pleased.

Alyssa realized that he was talking about Elias.

"He's a close friend of mine," she said in a defensive tone. She blinked at herself, surprised by her behavior.

She didn't like people saying anything bad about Elias. She guessed that she was still protective over him.

Eva's eyes widened slightly. She tried to hide a smile, but it still crossed her face.

"Just a friend?" she asked.

Micah narrowed his eyes slightly.
