Chapter 83: Killing Each Other
"What?!" Raine burst.
"Well, he was acting like he was your boyfriend," Tyrone added as he followed Raine out of the secret room.
Shaking her head, Raine sat on the couch not far from her bed and said, "He’s not my boyfriend. Also, I don’t see any hints of what you’re referring to as Janus acting like my boyfriend in his words or actions at all. Janus is just the protective type of a person, so it’s natural for him to think about the safety of discussing sensitive information like that. Not to mention that it’s his first time meeting you."
Stewing on her words, Tyrone sat beside Raine and tapped something on his iPad. Raine, on the other hand, turned to look at him with a smirk. She couldn’t help but tease, "You sound like you’re my jealous boyfriend."
"Why would you think that? I’m a man, and I can easily tell that the man’s interested in you," Tyrone retorted. "That’s why he glared at me more often than not. I’m pretty sure he’s the jealous one in this situation."
"Well, I haven’t noticed any of it. But now that you mentioned it, maybe I’ll consider observing Janus," Raine mumbled in amusement. "Well, he isn’t half bad. He’s handsome and intelligent, in his thirties, and is still single. Surely if I wanted to, it wouldn’t be so bad to entertain someone like him."
Raine rested her head sideways as she comfortably raised her legs up on the couch. Hugging her knees, she keenly stared at Tyrone, observing his usual stoic reactions for any sign of change.
"He’s a nerd," Tyrone suddenly murmured.
Raine fought the urge to laugh as she replied, "Nerds are hot these days. I can tell that Janus has a lean body behind all those layers of laboratory coats."
