Chapter 85: New Year’s Eve (2)
"Really?" Arren still asked, as if making sure the other was telling the truth.
He knew for sure, something fishy about these two but was aware as well that there wasn’t real progress going about them. The progress between Rave and Levin in the novel was the most extreme slow burn that Arren had ever read. It was quite frustrating but also addictive in a torturous way.
However, Arren was really curious this time around, even though he already had an impression of their relationship. One was that he forgot a lot of things in the plot and didn’t know what happened in the end about them or if they had a happy ending. And the most important thing was that this wasn’t a book anymore; who knew if they would progress much faster this time?
Rave didn’t respond and instead shifted his gaze back to the camera, and they were now facing each other. The white-haired omega stared straight into him, Arren knew he had been caught, but he still smiled casually, not minding it in the slightest.
"Why are you so curious to know?" Rave’s one eyebrow was raised, and without waiting for Arren to answer, he continued. "I still have something to do; let’s talk again, Arren." He said that, and Arren’s screen blanked out immediately, indicating the call was ended.
Arren’s mouth parted; he couldn’t believe it, and Rave just ended the call without hearing anything from him. He clenched his teeth and glared at the screen as if the omega was still there.
"So rude!" he commented soon after, extremely annoyed, and closed the laptop aggressively.
Since he had nothing to do, Arren thought of watching something to pass the time. New Year’s Eve in the Katz Mansion was rather boring, to most people, but not for Arren, as he had grown accustomed to it.
There were no banquets that some noble houses had; in a way, it was more solemn. They celebrated this day more quietly, and they would watch some fireworks displays in the evening after eating and then go to sleep soon after.
