The Villainess Does It With Class

Chapter 125 - Founding Ball Pt. 12

After some time had passed, Conrad came to deliver a message to him. He had to go so I was left alone with Conrad, who in turn, asked me for a dance.

I obliged because I don't see any problem with it and also, I have to talk to him.

"Hey you," I started by saying that.

Conrad looked down on me in inquiry. He's tall, but not taller than my brother. His hair, which he always cut to just reached half his back, was tied up into a ponytail as usual. I never really seen him out of his tie.

"Do you and Gwen had some sort of lover's quarrel right now?" I asked just to confirm it.

He was surprised for a second before smiling indulgently..

"Lover's Quarrel? No, we're not," he said.

One of my brows raised, "That's not what I'm seeing though."

These two, they are obviously not in good terms right now but they still deny it.

Conrad chuckled and twirled me around before bringing back to him again.

"You are imagining things. Did she told you we're fighting?"

"She didn't and I'm not imagining it," I then grabbed his shoulder tightly and pulled him closer to me.

Conrad's body tensed up from the shock when I made him bent down a little so I could look him directly in the eyes.

"Are you possibly cheating on my friend?"

"W-what?"

"I hope not because if you did, I will cut it off," then looked down. Conrad followed my eyes and instantly paled when he realized what I was talking about.

I then released him from his bent down position and smiled sweetly.

"Just kidding~"

I think I saw Conrad having a mini heart attack from that which literally sent me cackling like a lunatic. It was so funny, seeing him so scared from my threats.

Conrad cleared his throat and shook his head as he watched me laugh my head off, smiling nonetheless.

"Silly girl. You really don't change."

I stifled my laugh and looked at him.

"But honestly, what happened to the both of you?"

Conrad shrugs, "One day she just started being like that."

Hmmm... That is suspicious.

It wasn't just Gwen who started acting differently but him too. I don't want to say it out loud though because I might be just reading more into this.

They're adults now, they can take care of themselves. But if Gwen really is shouldering some problem, I will definitely help her out.

As I thought about that, I looked over to our table and saw Gwen and Bea with Kai and Lost. For some reason, she was staring at us but I couldn't read her expression at all.

'Maybe she's looking at Conrad? She's probably still into him, right?'

Gwen then caught me staring at her and immediately brightened up, waving at me. Then Eon slithers up next to her with Luther in tow, and also looked at us upon noticing his sister's actions.

"They're heading back to our table now," I uttered and turned to Conrad who was staring at me, "Let's go?"

Conrad released his hold on me and both of us went back to them.

"You guys disappeared without saying anything," I said and slid between Bea and Gwen.

"Haaah, I remembered telling you girls though that I'm off to find a woman," Luther remarked.
