Chapter 854 Not A Frivolous Woman
“Oh? Is that so?” Emrys chuckled lightly, then suddenly said, “But how c| heard that Ms. Morris is quite aloof
in nature? Many young men from Cloudmist Academy have tried to court you, but you seem uninterested in
entertaining them?”
How am | supposed to respond to that? | can’t say I'm only willing to associate with those who have great
potential, can 1? Ordinary young people simply didn’t catch my eye. This Tigger really has no sense of romance.
Sylvia's expression subtly shifted to one of melancholy.
Yet, an odd sensation inexplicably stirred within her. That knack for putting people in awkward situations was
eerily similar to Emrys’ style.
Secing Sylvia's silence, Emrys didn’t ridicule her any further. Instead, he said in a playful tone, “Ms. Morris, it's
an honor to meet you. However, I've never been short of friends. What I lack are women.
Emrys’ gaze was intensely fixed on Sylvia as he continued, “Ms. Morris, you understand what I'm trying to say,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdon’t you?”
As he spoke, he surprisingly reached out, gently grasping Sylvia's snow-white chin.
“Mr. Griffins, please show srespect!” After a brief struggle, Sylvia managed to break free from Emrys’ grasp.
“Respect?” Emrys suddenly let out a scoff, saying, “Sylvia, isn’t the real reason you cto seetoday just to
curry favor with me? If that’s the case, why don’t we cut to the chase and get straight to the point?”
As he spoke, he steadily advanced toward Sylvia, his approach exerting an overwhelming pressure on her.
Sylvia was instantly filled with a mix of embarrassment and anger. “Mr. Griffins,” she said. “you may refuse to be
my friend, but you have no right to insultlike this. I, Sylvia, am not the person you imagineto be!”
Influenced by Ameera, she indeed exhibited a desire to befriend those who were strong and had great potential
in terms of character.
However, being friendly didn’t necessarily mean pandering.
Just as it had been back at Crimson Sun Sect, Ameera had instructed her to seduce Emrys. However, the very
notion of “seduction” was something that Sylvia found deeply
1/3
unsettling.
Back then, she was willing to stay in Crimson Sun Sect to search for Emrys. Her intention was to apologize to
Emrys and, perhaps, becfriends. If things could progress further, naturally, that would be the best.
If things couldn’t progress further, then consider it as having made a new friend, which was also acceptable.
Even that day’s visit to meet Sword King’s inheritor was part of it. Ameera had instructed Sylvia to put on a good
show, striving to win the heir’s favor. Ameera’s words implied Sylvia should vic for favor through flattery.
However, Sylvia's pride simply wouldn't allow her to act in such a manner.
Sylvia, after all, was akin to a goddess at Cloudmist Academy. For those with great potential, she could set aside
her reserve and take the initiative to show goodwill, expressing her desire to make friends. However, That
gesture of goodwill was not to be mistaken for flattery.

Thus, when Emrys uttered those words, it was then that Sylvia was driven to a fit of embarrassed fury.
Sylvia's reaction was within Emrys’ expectations, but he wouldn't back down so easily. He continued to stride
toward Sylvia, displaying an attitude of relentless determination.
“Ms. Morris, you said you're not the person | imagined you to be. But as you can see, |, Tigger, am nothing more
than a rogue. Even with Sword King’s inheritance, it doesn’t change my roguish nature. If you're willing, stay
peacefully and don’t resist. If you're not, | won't force you. However, you must understand that if you miss this
opportunity, there will be no chance of seeingagain in the future,” said Emrys. Dare to play mind games with
me? Just wait and see how | toy with you!
Under the guise of Tigger from Rabid Gang, Emrys brazenly exerted pressure on Sylvia. His actions were
incredibly audacious as he once again reached out toward her beautiful face.
A fierce struggle flashed through Sylvia's eyes as the words Emrys had just spoken were undoubtedly trampling
on her self-esteem.
In the end, Sylvia did not let Emrys have his way. She spoke in a cold voice. “I apologize, Mr. Griffins. Although |
am passionate about associating with those who have great potential, | am certainly not a frivolous woman.
Excuse me!”
