บท 19: Chapter Nineteen: What Kind of Pressure?

"How do I coax a man?"

Only Mortimer would answer her strange questions without asking why.

Caleb Mamet was standing outside the door, stabilizing his emotions with a cigarette when his phone vibrated. He took a glance at it and saw a message from Black Tide. His first thought was: was he mistaken for a relationship counselor?

He lowered his head to text, "Just soothe him with sweet words and a little charm - men are the easiest beings to appease in the world."

Xaviera Evans: "..."

I think you're tricking me.

At the same time, another message from Caleb came in.

"Can you do me a favor? Tell me how to suppress a woman."

The message seemed to be an impromptu idea from Caleb.

Xaviera replied casually, "What sort of suppression are you talking about?"

Caleb: "…On a psychological level!"

Xaviera grumbled as she typed hastily: "Dude, you're really not up to it, can't even suppress a woman, weakling?"

Dammit!

Caleb was so angry that he wanted to throw his phone away!
