Before Vermes Marley could speak, she added, "Everyone in the world knows that I have a boyfriend now, so could you please stay away from me, OK?"
"Having a boyfriend doesn't mean you're married."
Vermes Marley advanced step by step, like a member of the Demon Clan, exuding an arrogant pride, "That means, I still have a chance. The person who ends up being your husband might be me, believe it or not?"
"Dream on!"
Ella Lacey really wanted to slap him, but without her sprite's power, hitting him wouldn't hurt. She could only vent her anger verbally, driving him away, "There are so many women in the world, can you stop bothering me?"
"No." Vermes Marley smirked.
"Are you even a man? You're a pervert...ugh!"
Ella Lacey was already heartbroken after losing her ring's dimension and the gem. Now Vermes Marley was provoking her again, which brought her nothing but exasperation and anxiety.
Her eyes felt like they were full of sand, so damp.
