Chapter 123 - Ignore You But Already Falling In Love With You

Rivera went to the nearest table and sat on the chair. She feels so exhausted even when she is just playing darts with Danelio, Livnah and Bambam.

She sat there and still watched her friends playing darts.

Suddenly someone took a seat beside her and started to talk to Rivera.

"You seem very skilled at darts. Would you mind teaching me how to play darts later? I like to play darts but really but at it," said Greyson.

Rivera turned her attention to Greyson but not long before she looked at her friends playing again.

Greyson knows that Rivera was trying hard to ignore him. But Greyson also doesn't want to give up. He will keep talking to Rivera so that Rivera would finally talk to him even though only for a second.

"You know you cannot ignore me forever. We live on the same roof, we will see each other everyday," said Greyson.

This time, Rivera looked at Greyson with a louche face. "If you know that we live on the same roof, why can't you just ignore me like I ignore you? I don't like to talk with you or look at you!"

"Yeah, I can see that. We barely even talk with each other. Back there at the Royal Castle, we hardly saw each other," said Greyson again.

"Because I don't want to see you! I don't want to meet you too! So, now could you please stop talking and ignore me like I was a stranger?" said Rivera again with an irritating voice.

"I can't… You are too beautiful to be ignored!" said Greyson again..

Rivera turned dumbfounded there.

She looked at Greyson for a long time, searching for an answer from Greyson. What did he mean by that? Shouldn't he hate me and say the opposite thing instead? Why does he compliment me??

"What are you talking about, geez… stop it! You only give me goosebumps!" Rivera used an annoying move by patting away her hand on her shirts like she was throwing out the dirt on her shirt.

Greyson didn't feel angry or annoyed by Rivera's action, instead he was smiling. This girl is trying hard to get away from him but Greyson becomes more interested to know more about Rivera.

"Mind if you take a walk with me tomorrow at the East Tower? How about noon?" said Greyson.

Rivera feels more angry when Greyson still didn't want to understand that she really doesn't like him. She gave Greyson a fierce glare before she said, "No, thank you. I would like to do other things rather than going out with you!"

"Oh, come on.. Just for one time!?"

"No, I won't go!"

"You will regret it later. I want to show you something," said Greyson, still don't wanting to give up.

"Listen, Greyson. I don't need to tell you the reason why I hate you so much.. You yourself understand what I mean. I would never agree anything with you nor do anything you want with me. So stop whatever you want to do right now and leave me alone," said Rivera fiercely. She couldn't hold the anger anymore. Rivera could punch this man anytime she wanted. Luckily, she is still a sane person to think about what is good or bad to do.

After she said that, Rivera then left Greyson there and walked up the stairs to her room.

"I would never ignore you or act like a stranger to you anymore, Rivera."

Rivera stopped for a moment. Slowly, she looked back at Greyson with a complicated expression before she walked away again. She even didn't glance at Greyson anymore when she walked.

Greyson released a heavy sigh as he just stated Rivera walked away from him. They have been enemies for a long time now, it's been almost one year since they met each other but Rivera never talks or smiles at him. But she was different from other people.

Rivera could smile, could talk, could laugh or could walk with other people. But she never wants to look at him.

Whenever Greyson wants to be inside her range sight, now matter how eager he is, Rivera never wants to give any attention to him, not even for a second glance.

Greyson has faced many difficult missions and jobs every day in his life but he never found anything difficult like what he confronts right now.

Greyson was so eager to make Rivera as one of his friends but after a long time he always watched Rivera secretly, he knew that Greyson not only wanted Rivera as his friend.

Greyson realised that he fell in love with Rivera.

But Rivera only looks at him as an enemy or stranger right now.

"How can I ignore you when I was already in love with you?" whispered Greyson.

"Are you okay, brother?" asked Jakzen as he walked toward Greyson and he sat next to Greyson.

Greyson could only smile and he looked away. He also doesn't know if he is okay or not.

"You look sad. Must be because of her?" asked Jakzen again.

Greyson looked at Jakzen with a shock in his face.

"How---"

"How do I know? I've been watching you all this time, Greyson… And you always look at her for a long time. You love her… right?"

Greyson's eyebrows furrowed as he doesn't know how to answer that question. Yes, he loves her… but is it okay for him to tell Jakzen about that?? Because the person he likes would not think about it either.

"She wouldn't care about it! She hates me," said Greyson with a heavyhearted voice.

Jakzen smiled again and he patted Greyson's back. "You will find a way, Greyson. As long as you love her and try to get her, she will turn to you!" said Jakzen again.

Greyson chuckled a little. "I'm trying… But it looks like my effort is just a waste."

"You never know if you keep giving up."

"Cheer up, brother. Greyson that I know is stronger and more energetic. Not sad and heartbroken like this!...."

Greyson smiled again when his fourth brother gave him courage. "Thanks, brother!"

"No worries… we're brothers. Brothers should help each other. Besides, I can feel that you and her meant to be," said Jakzen, teasing his brother.

"Shut up!!" said Greyson as he gave a light punch to Jakzen's hand. He was embarrassed when Jakzen teasing him.

Jakzen chuckled and soon enough both of them started to talk about other matters.
