Multiple thoughts ran through Jayce's mind; yet, there was one that was prevailing over the rest.
"Why me?" He couldn't come up with a reason why Bella would choose him.
There were multiple candidates, including Yuko and the other upper members of the student council, specifically Oliver.

Compared to Jayce who was an outsider with no relations, the choice was obvious.
"I have three reasons," Bella said. "First, you're an outsider. I wouldn't have to worry about you spilling it to some big guild, especially with what I just told you."
