While I may not care about rumors and gossip, it didn't mean that I could tolerate others trying to sow discord in our relationship in front of Nicholas.
"Who do you want to get out?"
I stood up suddenly, slammed my palm on the table, and glared at the man in front of me fiercely.
All of these people presented here were Nicholas's cronies. They all thought highly of themselves and acted like they were the best in the world.
In order to establish a friendly relationship, I occasionally gave them gifts, one after another, hoping that they wouldn't speak ill of me in front of him so that I could peacefully get through these five years.
Now that they heard that Nicholas's first love was going to return back, all of them changed their expressions as if they were looking forward to a good show.
My face was grim, and my teeth were chattering.
"Host, please stay calm and don't lose your character."
The System in my brain was like a tape recorder, reminding me over and over again.
I ignored it.
Stay calm?
It was ridiculous.
Ever since I was tricked by the System, I had been unable to maintain a stable mood and wanted to explode and kill everyone every day.
