章節 67: King (3)

I was once again taken aback by this sudden question.

Slowly, I came back to my senses and said, "We're friends, I don't think there's much that I can feel about her." Then I felt like I should add, "But I'll always make sure to protect her since she's a childhood friend."

Veronica's parents looked at me like they couldn't figure out if I was being serious or not.

As soon as his voice fell, he narrowed his eyes and then added, "Or else I don't need to tell you what I'll do to you, right?"
