Lily was even more unhappy when he did not respond. She walked up to him in small steps and looked at Aiden with big moist eyes. Seeing his resistance, she pouted and said, "What? Am I that scary?"
Aiden didn't dare to reply. He hurriedly pulled Eddie, who was pushing him, to stand in front of him. The latter was confused. Facing the goddess so close, he stammered and couldn't even speak properly. He wanted to pull Aiden to the front, but the latter seemed determined and held him tightly, unwilling to come forward no matter what.
"Aiden! What do you mean?! Are you avoiding me?!"
Lily felt even more aggrieved and angry.
"Fatty, get out of my way!"
With a pout, she raised her leg and kicked Eddie's calf hard.
"Aiyo, this has nothing to do with me, Missy…" Eddie clutched his leg and cried out in pain. Even Jack, who had been silent all this while, could not stand it anymore. He went to Aiden's side and pulled his sleeve.
"What's wrong, Aiden? Even if there's a conflict, there's no need to hide from her, right?"
Conflict my ass!
Aiden cursed in his heart. He really wanted to shout that Lily was not human, but what if there were berserk beasts among the other students? Wouldn't he be harming others?
Rather than that, it was better to pretend to be mute. Although it was a little bitter for Eddie, who had taken the bullet for him, it was better than being eaten alive by the ferocious beasts.
The commotion here attracted even more attention. The students in the class kept pointing at them. Students from the other classes also poked their heads out of the classrooms to look over. The more attention they got, the more anxious Aiden became. If this continued, it would probably arouse the suspicion of others. Then, there would be serious trouble!
Amid their dilemma, a sweet voice came from outside the crowd.
"Aiden Thomas, long time no see."
The crowd parted, and a girl in a white short-sleeved shirt and denim hot pants slowly walked over. Her legs were straight and slender, and her skin was smooth and flawless. Looking up, her red hair casually flowed behind her head. Her eyes were bright, her nose was high, and her facial features were deep. She was like a woman who had walked out of a painting. She was so beautiful that she seemed unreal. At that moment, everyone's attention was on her.
Even Aiden forgot his fear at this moment and stared blankly at the girl in front. When she approached, he muttered, "Who are you? Do we know each other?"
The girl smiled brightly like a blooming flower. Her red lips parted, emitting a crisp sound like spring water. "Aiyaya, you don't remember me? Seriously, to think that I've been thinking about you. Hmph!"
Her charming appearance stunned the onlookers. This girl was too beautiful. She was so beautiful that no one dared look at her directly, afraid that they would blaspheme such perfect skin.
"She, she's Sophia Harry!"
Someone in the crowd recognized the girl and exclaimed.
The crowd was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake. It immediately boiled.
"Sophia Harry?! The school belle of Kepler University?!"
"I was wondering why she looked so familiar. So she's the school belle known as the most beautiful pearl. But why did she suddenly appear here?"
"Oh my god, it's so beautiful!"
…
The crowd was in an uproar. When Aiden heard the girl's name, he returned to his senses. At that moment, he even forgot about Lily who had terrified him. He stared blankly at the girl in front of him.
Memories of his childhood surged into his mind like spring water, finally freezing on this beautiful face in front of him.
"Sophia… it's you? How did you…"
"Shh!"
Before he could finish, Sophia suddenly raised her fair index finger and placed it gently on his lips. At the same time, she took a step forward, almost touching Aiden.
Hiss!
Gasps sounded around them as they looked at the two in disbelief, especially the boys. Jealousy burned in their eyes, and they cursed Aiden repeatedly in their hearts.
This bastard, how could he win the favor of two goddesses at the same time!
Aiden himself did not expect Sophia to suddenly do this. When he came back to his senses, he quickly stepped back. However, before he could do anything, the mysterious voice that had saved his life appeared in his mind again.
"Don't move. Cooperate with me."
This, this is…
Aiden widened his eyes and looked at Sophia in shock. That voice just now. No wonder Sophia's voice was familiar. It was not a memory deep in his mind, but he felt that he had heard it somewhere recently.
It was not until he heard the mysterious voice in his mind that he was sure that Sophia's voice was exactly the same. Could she be the mysterious person who had saved his life?
Seeing his shocked expression, Sophia blinked playfully and slowly approached his ear. In a voice that only they could hear, she whispered, "Cooperate with me if you want to live."
Aiden's heart skipped a beat. Although he had endless questions to ask, he could only nod slightly when he heard this.
Their seemingly intimate actions caused an uproar again, and all kinds of discussions continued.
"Aiden Thomas! What do you mean?!"
Lily's angry voice rang out. Then, she stormed forward and grabbed Aiden's arm. "We agreed to meet in the park yesterday, but you stood me up. Now, you're flirting with this girl. Do you want to break up with me?!"
