Capítulo 169: Marriage already?

Next Morning

The situation repeated itself almost identically to the first day.

Selene, with an air of deliberate indifference, ignored Taylor, handed her bag to Aether, and hugged his arm tightly. Her touch lingered a moment too long, sending a shiver through Aether.

When she saw her brother, her demeanour changed abruptly. She let go of Aether, picked up her bag, and composed herself, masking her earlier intimacy with a cool detachment.

However, something different happened.

"Hello," Leon's voice broke through the morning air as he suddenly waved at Selene.

She frowned, her eyes narrowing slightly before she forced a smile.... a smile that was professional and cold, as she greeted him back, "Hello, Sir Leon!"

"Sir?" Leon's smile widened, his eyes twinkling mischievously, "There's no need for formality between us," he said, placing a familiar hand on Kai, who could only muster an awkward smile in response.
