Chapter 86 - It's making me feel uncomfortable

Clara felt irritated by Leo's word 

'Look at him asking Tim if he's okay as if I've done something to him. Isn't he the one who asked for my help just now?' she asked in her head.

"I'm good," Tim replied to Leo and smiled, but his heart still lingered on what happened.

The two of them went to sit down, as if nothing happened just now. Leo didn't fight Tim over it, while Tim didn't seem angry with Leonard.

The two acted as usual.

Most of the people in the hall weren't surprised at all, they are also people who have seen more horror than that.

They are businessmen after all, and have done one or two things of their own. They just admired Tim's bravery, as he doesn't care about the outcomes of his actions.

The girls also regained their self and admire him more, since the victim did not die at the end, so he's consider hot, while Leo is considered awesome. Both dude appeared more cool to them.

The ones who like bad boy, crush on hot, while those who prefer nice dude, crushed on awesome.

While some still steal glances at Clara. 

More guests kept arriving, while Leo and Tim keep getting impatient. The banquet has not even started, and they wondered how long Clara will keep standing. 

'Why the hell is this woman staring dagger at me like this?' Clara cried in her heart as Sharon keep looking at her weirdly, and she's sure she hasn't met her before.

Some small business owners who came to get connection, started approaching their table. Some with their beautiful daughters beside them, trying to get on their good side.

Yet for the first time, Tim doesn't pay attention to the beauties, he responded to their greetings and keep staring at his cell phone, and thanks to that Leo get more attention than he's not supposed to, while some of their daughters even flirt with him while shaking his hand.

But he is not Tim after all, he only smile at them and brush them off, and even remind some that held his hand far too long that they are still holding him, making them feel awkward.

Tim who was pretending to be serious couldn't take it anymore and look at Leo as another one left.

Leo just said, 'you're still holding me', while the lady smiled awkwardly and left. 

"Dude, can you be less boring? you couldn't even handle some flirting in public?" Tim asked. 

Leo rolled his eyes at him, "it's making me feel uncomfortable, they are even tickling my palm." Leo sighed.

"What's so bad about that? just flow with it and I'm sure you will enjoy it." Tim said.

"What's there to enjoy in all that?" Leo asked.

Tim chuckled, "at least, you will be getting back at your ex, as she's fuming with rage right now. So, the more you chase them away, the more you are telling her you are still into her and wouldn't look at other women." he said

"Sharon?" Leo asked.

Tim was very observant, and had noticed someone staring at their table since he came in, but didn't mind.

But then, he started to study Clara and realise she's uncomfortable looking at the same direction the stare was coming from.

He wasn't playing with his phone but checking out Sharon through it, and has been enjoying her rage as girls flirt with Leo. 

He couldn't hear what she is saying but could read one word that seem to come more often from her mouth, by reading her lips, 'slut'

"You have been here for a long time now and didn't notice? my god! you are something else dude." Tim said.

Leo didn't bother to search for her and continue receiving his unwanted visitors, that kept trying to clinch to him.

"Come here Clara," Tim suddenly said. 

Clara narrowed her eyes and look at him confused.

Leo also look at him.

"Hum why?" Clara asked, with a confused expression.

Tim smiled, "I'm tired of pretending to be okay with you being on your feet since I arrived." he said.

Leo, "..." shocked 

Clara, "....." touched
