Chapter 76 - I'd rather become an evil being and hunt you than be your goddess

Those who were watching the live stream on the street all smile at Leo's word. They find him humorous.

There was a woman who was looking at the screen with traces of anger on her face. She's none other than the sharp tongue lady who was sacked from Leo's  company for being one of Jerry's spies.

"Bodyguard?" she scoffed, "he is stylishly showing the world his girlfriend, since when did he hire a bodyguard," the lady said and rolled her eyes."

She was practically muttering to herself but there are two guys behind her who heard what she said.

"Miss, do you know him?" one of the guys asked.

Without looking back, "of course I do. I worked for him until recently. That bastard fired me." the woman reply out of annoyance before looking back at who she just talked to.

The two guys look at her and walk away, before she could say anything.

She narrowed her eyes and also start heading her own way. She didn't think much about them. She just wanted to stop looking at Leo smiling face. Who knew he could smile so brightly.

'You deserve an Oscar for your acting.' she thought

…...

Back at Gregory side.

Gregory looked at Sonya and smiled. "So you work for someone and haven't seen him once before?" he asked.

"Yes, he's always busy." Sonya replied casually. 'At least he is different from you that I have to keep seeing everyday.' Sonya said in her mind, but Gregory heard it. 

"So you don't like me being at home with you?" Gregory asked. 

Sonya was confused, she wondered how Gregory could guess her every thought. It's kind of creepy, making her want to start cautioning her inner thought 

"I just don't want to keep looking at your smiles every now and then, do you even frown at all?" she asked.

Gregory look  indifferent and move closer to her, stepping on the broken glass, but didn't get hurt, "so you are saying that ex-boss of yours is more good looking than me?" he raised his brow at her, as they were inches apart, with their gaze locking, "and you find his smile more nicer to look at than mine?" he asked.

Sonya look unmoved by the closeness and  sighed, before shaking her head, "boss, can you please stop comparing yourself to a human? you are more like a demon okay? how can someone look like you and still compare himself with a human being." she said in a serious tone, as Gregory's look is just out of this world.

'your demonic beauty is like a torture to me, I can't even focus while looking at that charming smile of yours.' she said the last part in her mind.'

Gregory chuckled and return to his seat amused. Sonya was just being sarcastic, but she actually hit the jackpot without knowing it, he is indeed not a human but a demon.

....

Back at the Hall.

Suddenly a loud sound was heard in the hall, so loud that everyone had to cover their ears except Leo and Clara. 

Leo heart beat increases immediately and his head began to ache. His eyes widened, before memories started surfacing in his mind.

He couldn't think clearly anymore, but before he could go far into it, Clara has already noticed his condition, he is going into an attack. She leaned closer to his ear and whispered something to him.

"I'd rather become an evil being and hunt you, than to be your goddess," Clara said and stand up straight again like she hasn't said anything.

Leo didn't know how he recovered his senses, but grit his teeth in anger. Can this woman be less provocative? he didn't know why he took her word seriously, but didn't like how she's making it obvious that she didn't like him.

He couldn't say anything, or else it will be recorded and heard in the entire hall. But then, he suddenly realises that his headache had vanished like he didn't feel any just now.

'This provocative woman!' he growled in his mind, before looking back at the reporters who are talking among themselves about what could have caused the sudden sound, that has suddenly stopped.

Meanwhile, outside the hall, Jimmy led some group of boys toward the hall, but before they could walk nearer,  the Lboys appears in front of them cracking their knuckles and grinning.

'We've been expecting you' was boldly written on their expressions as they all took a defensive stance.

Jim didn't seem fazed and also smile, before gesturing for his boys to attack.
