Chapter 623: Uninvited Company
The Incubus System Chapter 613. Uninvited Company
I cast my gaze from his feet to the top of his head in a foreign look before I spoke, "Sorry. Do I know you?" I asked. This was Ethan's first meeting with Nathan so I had to pretend I didn't recognize him.
"My nis Nathan. I'm Jenny's brother." He pointed to where Jenny was.
I forced myself to smile.
"Oh. Nice to meet you, Nathan."
"Mind if I take the seat?" he asked.
"Sure."
"Thank you."
"Where're your parents? Are they working?" It was preamble since my sight had caught where they were.
"They are here. Jenny is my parents' favorite child so they won't miss it. I don't want to miss it either," he said kindly and leaned toa bit. "I want to see my sister stumble on the stage since she insisted on wearing high heels for this event," he tried to be funny.
I cringed in response. Judging from his reaction when I and Celia brought Jenny hafter the prom, I was sure he wouldn't laugh if that happened.
"I see." I nodded. "It's good to see a whole family here," I answered modestly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yeah. Except the stumble hasn't happened yet, so I'm kinda bored." I knew it was just an excuse. I knew the main reason he was here was probablysince I remembered Ruby's warning and weird act before I left for the demon world. I guessed the demon hunter association was planning something related to me.
'Right, I forgot to text Larry to say I'm back. I wonder if Ruby tortured him.' I felt bad for him so I thought to treat him to a meal later. If he was still alive. I hoped.
"Anyway how are you?" he suddenly askedagain.
I glanced at him and smiled dryly.
"As you can see. Great," I said with a shrug. Yeah, it was clear that he was trying to find out about me. But since we just got to know each other he had to start everything with basic questions. I was sure he wouldn't like it since it was a waste of his time.
"I mean. How did you spend your holiday? You are a college student right?" he tried to continue my dead-end answer.
I frowned at him.
"How do you know that?" I asked out of curiosity and tried to react as naturally as possible.
"Jenny said a thing or two about you," he reasoned.
"Really?" I asked in disbelief. A frown was still on my forehead. "I thought Celia and Jenny weren't on good terms since a problem related to Bern?" I asked again.
Then he snapped his fingers. Looked like he just got the right topic of conversation for us.
"Ah yes! That guy! You know, I also want to talk to you about that guy. I heard Celia has broken up with him. Good for her. He is an asshole." His tone suddenly changed. He sounded more excited and less calm than before.
I frowned due to his reaction.
"Yeah. I'm happy with that."
"I think we should teach him a lesson someday," he assuredexcitedly.
My frown worsened.
"We?" I repeated.
"Yeah. He played with our sisters' feelings. We have to hang out sometimes and teach him a lesson." He ended by bumping his fists against each other in excitement. It was clear that he was trying to lurefor something and I was sure this had something to do with the association.
Even though I wanted to accept it happily, I decided to hold back and find out more before I took action. I knew I was far stronger than them now and I was able to finish them easily. But the association had secret weapons and authorities that I didn't have in the human world. I took the precaution since I didn't want to mess up anything.
I shook my head from side to side.
"Sorry. I think I will pass. Bern already apologized toand Celia. He too has gone from our lives. I'm not interested in making trouble," I refused.
His brow furrowed in displeasure.
"So you're just going to let him go?" he scoffed. "Are you a coward?" he provoked me.
"You should learn the difference between a coward and someone who solves problems with his brain, Nathan," I said unhappily. Then without hesitation, I turned to the field again, showing I wasn't interested in talking to him.
He pressed his lips for a while. But then he spoke again, "I see. Sorry then. I didn't think much. I forgot you already lost your parents and only have each other so you have to keep yourselves out of trouble," he said regretfully.
"Thank you for your understanding," I said in an indifferent tone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"But I still hope to hang out with you sometimes. Like we could bring Celia and Jenny together. I hope they can be good friends again like before," he tried to bargain.
"It depends on them. We don't have the right to force them to make up. They're not little kids anymore. Let them decide," I stated.
"Hmm you're right. But I still think about bringing them closer. A friend is better than an enemy. Do you think the sthing, Ethan?" Somehow his voice sounded like an offer that I shouldn't refuse.
Still, I decided to refuse it. I turned to him and smiled.
"Indeed. But I'm not interested in imposing my will on others. They don't hate each other, they just decide to keep their distance and do what they want without disturbing each other. What's the big deal then? Just let them be," I asked him. "Besides, it's a normal thing for girls their age," I continued.
A long exhale left his mouth as a dry smile formed on his lips.
"Well, I'm just giving suggestions since I always heard about Celia and you from my sis. So I thought to help them and give them a little encouragement. I don't mean anything. But you don't seem interested in that." He stood up from his seat. "Okay, then there's nothing more I can talk about. Have a nice day, Ethan."
"Have a nice day."
Then he left.
Even though this was a short encounter, I was sure this would be the start of our clash.
