Chapter 718: What The
"Cai, is this okay for..."
Both men turned to Dora, Cai giving her a quick once-over before nodding indifferently. But Kael? He looked as though he was about to blow a fuse. "What are you wearing?"
Cai’s eyebrow arched, and he turned back to Dora, really looking at her this time. His eyes narrowed slightly before a faint smile tugged at his lips. Ah, so the real Dora was back. She’d purposely asked him about her choice of clothing, knowing he wouldn’t even pay attention to something of that sort as long as he could apply the ointment with ease. And yet, here she was standing in satiny nightwear, looking for all the world ready to seduce...
Cai rolled his eyes as he looked at Kael Ignis. Good thing he’d held back on punching the man. Now he could get a front row seat to watch Dora as she tortured him.
Taking his cue, he snapped his fingers in front of Kael’s face, breaking the man’s stare. "She’s wearing something comfortable, Kael. You know, the kind of thing people wear before bed. Now, if you’ve satisfied your curiosity, we’re calling it a night."
Cai moved to close the door, but Kael pushed his way in, striding over to Dora with a determined look as he stopped in front of her and questioned her," What is going on? Who is this man?"
Treating him as if he was invisible, Dora turned away, but her wrist was caught by Kael, who pulled her back," Answer me!"
The temperature seemed to fall then as Dora finally looked into Kael’s eyes, letting his see the ice there that he had put. "I don’t know who you think you are, but I don’t recognize you. And frankly, you have no right to question me." She tried to pull her hand free after that, but Kael’s hold was firm, causing her to jerk her wrist out of his grasp with a sharp twist.
As he finally let go of her hand, Dora felt her facade break. The moment you turned your back on me when I was on that stage, you became a stranger. So, stay one, Kael Ignis. You’re not even going to become an acquaintance."
Without waiting for his response, she spun on her heel and headed toward her bedroom, not willing to expose herself more to him. However, she wanted to hurt him. Hurt his ego. Before disappearing behind the door, she glanced back at Cai. "Cai, I’m feeling tired. Come to my room once you’ve taken out the trash."
Cai almost had to bite his lip as Kael whipped around to stare at him after Dora said that. With great difficulty, Cai kept a straight face and extended his arm, opening the door wider," Mr Trash. Would you walk out on your own or do I really have to throw you out?"
