Chapter 82: A Little Tense

In response, Oliver waved his hand at the woman without saying anything.

It was a wave to ask her to leave, like a shooing.

Her existence was no longer important for now, but he needed to keep watching her movements to know what she would be like.

Would she really be controlled like a puppet?

After waving his hand, he immediately turned around before she even left, staring at Isabel.

'You arrogant brat.'

Ruby could only curse inwardly as she was treated like she was someone completely insignificant.

This was something new to her.

Unfortunately, she did not dare to show her anger.

She slowly turned around and walked away towards the city wall.

She was in a very bad mood right now, so she planned to fight with the monsters by going berserk.

Of course, she actually had the desire to leave this city to avoid Oliver and Miya.

Unfortunately, she put it off due to various matters and then there was a tsunami so there was no way to leave.

Using a helicopter outside the city is also very vulnerable because if you encounter a Monster Boss, the helicopter could be brought down.

Oliver observed Isabel who he hadn't observed carefully since her appearance.

Her appearance was no different from last night. She where wearing a tanktop with her hair in a ponytail. Sёarch* The NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Since they were the same age, so there was a more natural feeling when he looked at her face.

She was also observing him, just keeping quiet while pressing her lips together, like she couldn't think of anything to say.

"Shall we sit down," Oliver said to her, inviting her to the nearest chair designed for two.

When she was invited, she immediately sat down on the chair.

Oliver followed after her.

Although the chair was small, it didn't make their shoulders touch.

"Is it true what that woman said that you're going to marry her?" Isabel finally spoke when he sat down.

Of course, she prioritized this topic over the others.

The others were secondary matters while this was a matter of her heart.

She had liked him all along, it had reached the point where she could not stop thinking about him, always imagining life with him.

If he suddenly marries another woman, she naturally feels hurt.

Is it her fault for not trying to formalize their relationship?

However, as a woman, she had the point of view that this should be started by the man, that is, him, not her.

The problem was that Oliver had never confessed his love to her.

If only he did, she would accept it without hesitation so that they could date.

Oliver thought about the words he needed to say.

For this, he didn't plan to lie, but he needed to think of good words.

"Maybe we can say this is getting married to get a little wife," he said after a moment of thought.

Of course, he wasn't saying anything wrong.

He had already said something like this to Kim Hana.

"Little wife?" Isabel seemed to hear something so her gaze went blank.

She clearly didn't understand anything.

In this case, Oliver thought it was also a bit difficult to explain the true meaning of little wife.

"Well, forget it!" Isabel suddenly said again.

This time, it was Oliver who was puzzled by her words so he looked at her with a questioning expression.

She herself was just silent as if thinking of something else.

Why did she ask to stop this topic?

Did she already understand?

And what was she thinking about?

"One thing that is impossible in this world is someone who does not change after gaining power. That's absolutely impossible, power will change everyone," she continued while Oliver was still confused.

It seemed that she was talking about a certain philosophy.

What she was alluding to was obviously him.

"It's a natural thing," he said in response.

He was open to this, so he didn't need to argue or make excuses.

To his surprise, Isabel's lips became pouty, something he had never seen from her.

He was sure that as long as he had known her, she had never pouted. After all, she was a gentle woman with a mature personality.

After that, she apparently stood up.

"I have to go to the city wall to help people," she said and took a step.

Nothing seemed wrong with her as her demeanor seemed to be her usual self.

People who saw them would have thought they were just two people chatting and then one of them left because they were busy.

Oliver didn't try to stop her, letting her go while keeping an eye on her until she disappeared.

DING!

Oliver's cell phone suddenly received a message, and it was from Isabel who had just left.

He showed a strange look when he saw her name appear.

Opening the message, he found that she was sending a photo from the civil affairs office.

Oliver knew right away because the name of the office was clearly written above the entrance.

Below the photo, there were words from her.

(If you got married to get a little wife, then when did you come here to get a big wife?)

Oliver don't know what was going on in Isabel's head for her to send that message.

He was left not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

'It seems that she can't get angry and can't hate me,' he thought, surprised by his own charm.

He finally stood up as well while looking up at the sky that initially looked beautiful but then changed instantly due to the arrival of huge black clouds from the east.

"What is this again?" Oliver couldn't help but wonder.

His sharp gaze told him that it wasn't that cloud.

He squinted his eyes, trying to focus before finally realizing that it was actually a horde of black birds in such large numbers that when they gathered, it looked like they were a black cloud.
