"What did you say?"
Alfred spoke in a low voice, articulating each of his words.
Really a third-rate line.
He did hear Jayden, but asked again to intimidate him.
"I-I just said we planned to watch the race together with Edward."
Jayden stuttered but still held his ground.
Was that because of Alfred's status?
Or maybe because he knew Alfred was stronger than him?
I'm not sure what the exact reason was, but Jayden was clearly nervous.
Milleia was slightly behind Jayden; she was squeezing his arm as if trying to stop him from talking further. A conflicted expression adorned her face.
Lyra didn't seem to be there, so they were alone to deal with Alfred.
My bad.
I forgot Thomas, who was next to Alfred.
The more time passed, the more convinced I became that Thomas was Alfred's mistress. I mean, he was always with Alfred; it was weird! Even in the same club now!
