With Kence beating the ass of the scumbag gossipers, he thought that Dianne will leave him alone after seeing how fierce he is. However, it actually has the opposite effect
Kence's actions just made Dianne even more interested in him. He was about to teach her a lesson too if this woman's sister didn't save her
"Big Sister, stop being shameless!" Diona, Dianne's little sister said angrily while pulling the ears of the beautiful woman
The aura of a seductress in Dianne's body vanished into thin air. She now has the aura of a bullied big sister
"A-aw! Gosh, stop being so violent!" Dianne cried out in pain while being dragged away by her little sister
Seeing that, Kence heaved a sigh of relief and continued drinking alcoholic drinks. His face was already tainted with a reddish blush and he was starting to get tipsy
But when Kence looks at Rhash that was still looking at him with stars in his eyes, his competitive side was aroused. How can Kence get drunk faster than this little friend of his?
Not to mention, Rhash drunk more than he did. How did this little guy beat his alcohol tolerance?
"Hey, umm, I'm sorry for my sister. She's just a bit of a slut but she's also kind!"
Kence turned his head to the side and she saw Diona looking at him with an apologetic look. She doesn't look like a person that has ulterior motives and Kence is not uncomfortable with her
"It's fine but if you are really sorry, buy me a drink"
"Gladly"
Rhash watched the friendly interaction of the two and he can't help but cry again. Why is it that Kence is already approached by two women while he is still alone?
Is it really because he is short? Do women really only like tall guys? Is the reason why his crush doesn't like him because of his height?
Rhash rested his chin on the bar counter while thinking of the pretty girl he has a crush on. He was too busy thinking about her causing him to be startled at the sudden release of familiar pheromones
When the eyes of the people in the club turned to look at the source of the pheromones, they saw a dashing man with golden hair and eyes
The club was a bit dim yet it gave the people an illusion that his whole body was shining due to how handsome he is
While shuddering from the pheromones' effect, Rhash can't help but pout his lips. "Hmph, why is he so tall .... and angry ..?"
Calter has a face and body that will light one's world but on the second look, the people around felt like they entered a dark abyss. Calter's face was contorted with anger while looking straightly at Kence that was startled by his sudden appearance
Calter knew that Kence is not the type of person that will easily let someone get too close to him as he knew how much Calter can be jealous. So now, why is he this close with another woman?
Not to mention, the one with Kence is different than the one from the photo that Rhash sent to him. Is Kence back in his womanizing days?
No! Calter can't let him do that!
With large steps, Calter went directly to Kence's side while glaring at Diona. His eyes were filled with so much danger and it causes the woman's body to tremble
Diona felt that this situation is dangerous and she wants to run away but she cannot. Her legs were shaking so much from Calter's aura to the point that she can't even stand
"Let's go" Calter said darkly to Kence before grabbing him in the arm. The club went silent at that and all attention was focused on them
Kence felt a splitting headache because of this. Why are troubles coming at him one after another? All he wants is a peaceful night to drink. What's so hard giving that to him?
Other people might be afraid at Calter but Kence is not like them. He looks directly at Calter and he can't help but feel that this man is really too handsome for this world
The words he wants to say were stuck in his throat unable to come out. Because of that, Kence pinched his thigh for his sanity to return and a defiant look was painted on his face
"No" Kence refused and removed Calter's hand in his arm
"What is wrong with you?" Calter asked in a low voice but Kence can still feel the vast amount of suppressed anger in it
"You are the one that should go. Leave me here!"
If Calter is angry so is Kence! Can't this douchebag just wait until the next day? Kence is going to break up with him at that time, okay?!
"Stop being stubborn. You have caused enough harm to our reputation already"
Reputation ... a word that Kence took great care of in the past. He was almost obsessed with having a good reputation in hopes that Calter's family will accept him so that his lover's successorship will not be affected
The world gave Kence a second chance already. Will he waste time and effort at taking care of a useless thing such as reputation?
Who cared about reputation! Why do people even care what he does in his life when they are not a part of it?
"I don't care about my reputation anymore so stop ruining my night" Kence said fiercely while pushing Calter's chest. His hand suddenly felt hot but he chose to ignore it. This is no time to get affected by a simple touch like that
"You're drunk, you'll regret this tomorrow. Your actions will surely be known by my family. Come with me willingly or I'll force you. You have done enough harm already"
At the end of the day, Calter just wants the lover he chose to be accepted by his family despite the means including harming his lover's feelings. He is saying he loves Kence but maybe, he loves the position of the heir more
Kence felt like he is so stupid. Why did he only realize it now? How infuriating
"I don't care about you or your family anymore so leave me alone!"
Calter clenched his teeth at that. Here he was, worrying for Kence since his man offended a lot of people that might take revenge on him. Calter also knew how much Kence cared for his reputation and he was just trying to help. Why did he become the bad guy here?
Who is it that came to this club and flirted with women? Calter is already being calm and mature to stop all his frustrations from gushing out like a broken dam. Why is Kence making everything hard for him this day?
Not wanting to waste any more time, Calter grabbed Kence's arm again and forcefully moved him away. Unfortunately, Kence poured strength into his legs to stop himself from being dragged away
"Stop!" Kence shouted angrily while yanking his arm away. Every touch that Calter gave to him makes his skin feel warm and he can't just let Calter do whatever he wants. This is dangerous for his heart that won't stop beating fast
"Kence, I'm losing my patience here. Just why are you being so stubborn today?!"
Calter put his palm in his face in frustration. There are a lot of people here yet they are making such a huge scene. He can already imagine what the biggest headline for tomorrow is
Kence repeatedly took deep breaths. Since things already turned like this, he can only drop the bomb he was preparing for tomorrow. He wants Calter to move as far as possible for him since he cannot suppress all this fury for long anymore
"Let's b-break up" Kence never imagined that it would be this hard saying these lines for the second time. His voice even trembled in the middle and it took a lot of effort to squeeze out those words. He felt a pang of pain in his heart and Kence cursed this stupid thing called love
Kence can feel his eyes getting watery. All the happy memories he had with Calter flashed in his mind. Their first date, their first kiss, their confession, their first night
Kence was overwhelmed with the sudden influx of emotion and he got a bit dizzy. Who would have thought that mere memories can affect him to this extent?
Seems like Kence's choice is right. He already fell too hard for Calter and he can't afford to fall even harder. He doesn't like it. Kence doesn't like pain
Physical pain can still be endured by Kence by this suffocating pain that filled his whole being is something he doesn't like
Now that he thinks of it, this was one of the biggest reasons why Kence doesn't want to fall in love before. Whether it be his mother, Rhash, or other people he knows, a lot of them get their hearts broken because of love
Kence saw how devastating and painful love can be and he is the type of person that doesn't like experiencing pain. He would rather not experience any joyful things than to be happy today and be sad tomorrow
Love ... Kence originally doesn't like that thing or more like he doesn't like the pain that comes with it
What a fool. Why did Kence forget this mindset of his when it comes to love and tried it with Calter? He should have just listened to his past self
Kence was feeling enormous pain and Calter is no different. Hearing Kence wanting to break up with him causes his world to shatter into millions of tiny pieces. His nightmare is happening just in a different way
Calter's face even twitched due to the pain in his heart. It was like someone choked his neck and he was unable to breathe. His vision darkened while he looks straight at the man he loves
Waves and waves of fear, dejection, and unwillingness, overcomes Calter. Where did things go wrong? Isn't he and Kence happily living a joyful life?
Sure, they experience some hardships here and there but isn't their relationship going well or maybe it was only him that was thinking like that?
Millions of thoughts swirled in Calter's mind and he was unable to react for a moment. The words that Kence said earlier were the words he never thought he would hear from his lover
All this time, Calter is thinking of Kence as the man that he will grow old with. Kence is the lover that he needs and he was doing the best that he can to satisfy his man
Whenever Calter is angry, he will try to suppress it to himself. He doesn't want to lash out at Kence and inflict pain on him. That was something that the past him will never do
Calter also tried to be as mature as possible. Kence always throws a tantrum here and there but didn't he always coax Kence immediately? He even finds it a bit cute
Calter even cared for Kence's health more than his own. Even if Kence's body is strong and it was not easy for him to get sick, Calter still does his best to care for him
Even Kence's favorite drink is something that Calter will personally buy for his lover. Whenever he saw a shop that sells chocolate drink, Calter would always think of Kence and buy one for him
He knows that he is not the perfect lover but Calter is doing his best. He was being as attentive as possible even though he really never took care of anyone
Back at the Sternix Family, there are always servants that will do all the work. However, when Calter is living with Kence, he studied how to cook so that their meals would be more special
Calter thought that Kence would be happier and appreciate him if he was the one that is cooking. Thus, he spent a lot of time honing his cooking skills despite him having a lot of work to do in the company
Calter always poured a lot of his effort but it was still not enough?
