Chương 42: Bolder Approach

'This is bad,' Reign felt a cold shiver down his spine as he sensed her presence behind him, fearing her anger if he said the wrong thing.

With his life hanging in the balance, his mind raced for solutions. Even though he wasn't keen on romance, it would be foolish not to realize that she was infatuated and obsessed with him. 

This was reality, and he wasn't like those oblivious main characters from romantic comedy anime who couldn't read the room. He was simply inexperienced, which was why he didn't know how to react. 

In the past, he had to pull away, but faced with her frustration, he realized he needed a different approach.

Appreciation, of course. Even her mother had loved it when he complimented her in his past life.
