Chapter 270 - Boy in Love (7)

It appeared like several mountains loads of pressure were dumped onto both the shoulders of Lucius and Belle. They became utterly speechless seeing that they were the ones who had to fix the mistakes made from Yulee and Jules. Now, it was only them representing our fraction.

Even both Ben and Alice appeared like they were pitying them. Haruka stopped giving aggressive statements towards Lucius and Belle, smelling their weakness from the news. One really had to dig into the incident to know what was truly happening behind the scenes.

All the sudden, they noticed how much I depended on Luke. I clung onto his arm while I also leaned against most of my weight towards him. When they looked closer at my legs, they could find tiny traces of the thick round of bandages wrapped around me. Unfortunately, there was only so much that Yulian could heal.

"It must have been something serious," Ben commented.

Both Luke and I stayed silent and continued to smile. It would become a serious problem if they knew how much I got injured and from which occasions. Even Yulian pretended he didn't know what Ben was talking about, recalling all my horrible injuries that couldn't have come from one-time events.

"I heard how you were first attacked by all the decorations on the wall. And then there was a loud sound like someone was slammed against the wall. People also saw you almost choking to death in the air before your wine glass exploded, leading an entire chandelier to collapse on you." Haruka seemed to wonder how I was still alive.

No wonder he was the one who appeared the most worried for me. I wondered what he would think if he knew the dangerous details and aftereffects it went with them. Both Alice and Ben appeared shocked from the news. Even Yulian and Claire began to see me in a new light. Meanwhile, Lucius and Belle seemed like they were still processing all the information in their brains.

"It's true. I did get slammed into a wall, creating a crater," I wasn't going to cover for the lack of security in their mansion.

In another way, it was a warning to the rest of the people here to tighten their security inside their mansions. I didn't want to go to another event where the entire thing repeated again. I hoped they would put more dangerous decorations off their walls and keep things simple like the Impalia mansion.

"We hope the next events we visit will not be like today," Luke supported my warning.

The whole ballroom became silent from our warnings. It was likely they were going to conduct a meeting with the rest of their fractions after the Impalia fraction event. I brightly smiled as it meant they were taking our warnings seriously.

We walked into the dining room as I pretended to listen to the rest of the following conversations. I would happily skip for a proper meal if it weren't for my injuries. Luke pulled out a chair for me to sit down, helping me into my seat like I couldn't do anything on my own.

Everyone watched the subtle hints, showing I wasn't completely recovered from my injuries. Under the stares of the guests, I reluctantly followed the dining manners, unable to fully enjoy my meal. It was just then, an uninvited ran into the dining room.

"I was looking for you. This place was harder than I thought to find," Ella's partner walked towards me.

How did he get inside here? I coughed, almost choking on my food. Why was the security so weak in everyone's mansions today? Everyone stopped eating to stare at the uninvited guest. Meanwhile, both Claire and Yulian seemed to freeze in their seats. It was like they recalled our warnings to tighten the security in their mansions.

"I told you that I'm not willing to help you. I think that dagger near the end was a bit too much, isn't it?" I threw a fork towards him.

"That wasn't me!" He appeared like he was being falsely accused while he dodged the fork.

"It was probably Ella. Her brother began flirting with another girl soon after he was kicked out," he explained.

"Oh, so it's all Ella's fault then," I rolled my eyes. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/my-bothersome-life_10609696606076405/boy-in-love-(7)_48812470101400221 for visiting.

"It's not her fault, it's all her brother's fault!" He clenched his fists.

"Please go on," I threw a knife towards him this time.

He ducked his head as the knife became stuck on the wall. It was a pity. I had to listen to his excuses now while pretending that everyone wasn't listening to our conversation.

"He should've broken her heart. Instead, he acted like she was his partner as he took more of her time away from me," he defended himself.

At this rate, nothing was going anywhere. The same conversation was repeating over and over again. Meanwhile, I was the one who suffered through the consequences of their fight. I sighed as I decided to finally meddle in their problem and give them a feasible solution.

"Why don't you support their sibling romance and ask her to forgive you. I'm sure it's better than her not talking to you," I suggested while throwing a bigger knife this time.

"I can't. Ella's already dead since I tried to kill her brother. I didn't think she would actually die for him!" He revealed.
