Chapter 301 - Seeking Death
Chapter 301 – Seeking Death
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Noelle paused as they were called out, and Emilia also turned around, frowning in confusion. "Yes? Are you talking to us?"
Jake's expression immediately went slack, and something else hardened. 'F-Fuck, even her voice is so sexy!'
Although they hadn't been too far from the table that the girls were in before, the distance wasn't small enough for them to hear anything, especially when they weren't speaking loudly.
In fact, let alone hearing her voice, he could barely even see the full details of her face at that time. Had he not noticed the beauty when she entered the restaurant, he really might have overlooked such a wonderful chance!
But now, the more he looked, the more he liked. Even the beauties he could only admire on the screen didn't look so good, right?!
Once she became his girlfriend, he would definitely have to convince his bro to let her audition for some idol dramas! With this face and voice, even if she was a vase, it wouldn't be an issue to shoot up to be a somewhat famous face in the entertainment circle!
Just thinking about such a girl calling his name sweetly one day almost caused him to faint, but thankfully he managed to retain his consciousness while eagerly waiting for his boss to bring her to his side.
As long as she signed the agreement, he would forever be his. And as for refusing… was there even a choice? He knew Alexander well enough.
Although Emilia couldn't read his thoughts, she still expressed her dissatisfaction by tugging on Noelle's arm. "Is this a humanoid robot that ran out of battery? What's going on?"
Noelle felt her lips twitch in amusement. "If you have something to say, why don't you just say it?"
Jake was embarrassed when he broke out of his reverie, but thankfully Alex stepped forward at this moment.
He had barely gotten within arm's reach when Emilia ducked behind Noelle to hide. "Scary! Noelle, the look in his eyes is so scary~"
Obviously, Emilia wasn't actually scared. She just wanted to have fun with Noelle as she embraced the girl while trying to 'hide'.
The cold expression on Alexander's face immediately froze. When was the last time that a woman tried to avoid him like this? He was tired enough fending off their attention-seeking tactics every day!
However, he soon realized that this wasn't anything new. Some women often tried to play hard to get in the beginning, and this one was probably just one of them.
Sneering, he moved forward domineeringly, but before he realized what had happened, the dark-haired man found himself facing the opposite direction.
Alexander, who should have had the terrified beauty in his arms as he twisted her chin up to face him, now had his arm twisted behind his back as he knelt on the ground in disbelief.
Idly, he wondered, 'Eh? Why does it… hurt?', but his brain failed to process the reason why.
By the time he returned to reality, the two girls had long since left.
But looking at Jake's dumbfounded face, the dark-haired man realized that no, it wasn't just his hallucination, and he really had been humiliated like that. "T-They dared…"
Jake jolted, also breaking out of his reverie as he quickly rushed to the side of his 'boss' in an attempt to pacify the man. "B-Bro… c-calm—"
But his 'sympathy' only made Alexander crazier as he slapped his hand away. "How dare they?! Courting death!"
The blond boy realized that the situation wasn't good.
By now, Jake knew Alexander's nature better than anyone else, so he also knew the fate of those who went against him.
The last time a girl had rejected him was three years ago, and the girl had been run over by a bus just five days later.
No matter what, Jake wanted that girl to be his girlfriend, and he couldn't let Alexander harm her yet!
Jake's thoughts turned rapidly, and he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "Don't panic, bro! We have to analyze the situation! The older girl was clearly prepared, and she was also trained. I think… she might have led us into a trap!"
Alexander's face turned even colder. "You mean…"
"That's right, bro. They could have even had us photographed! Let's get out of here first, and we can hire a private detective to investigate before making any hasty decisions, okay?"

Although the two men weren't really a threat, Noelle hadn't planned to let them go so easily. Emilia, however, didn't want to ruin their date, and simply dragged the gray-haired girl away while showering her with praises.
"You were so cool! I knew Noelle would protect me~"
When Emilia leaned up to press her soft lips against Noelle's cheek, the older girl felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
But before she could shout 'sexual harassment!', Emilia had already resumed praising her. "Chivalrous, strong, and dutiful! Mhm, I'd give you a score of ten out of ten in the knight index. Even my Dixie is only slightly better!"
Noelle almost rolled her eyes. Had she actually cared, wouldn't a 'compliment' like that just piss her off?
The younger girl clung to her arm all the way to their car, chattering endlessly. Strangely enough, the gray-haired girl felt that it wasn't so bad to be like this, but quickly shook that thought away.
When Noelle opened the door and motioned for Emilia to get into the car, however, the younger girl gave her a complicated look. "Ah, I don't know how to repay you for saving me… If not for you, wouldn't they have done 'this and that' to me?"
The gray-haired girl was about to point out a hundred and one things wrong with that statement — such as how Emilia wasn't helpless at all, and how the two men couldn't have dared to do much in the restaurant's parking lot — but before she could, the younger had already embraced her tightly.
"For this life-saving grace, I have decided to repay you with my body!"
Emilia's expression was still mischievous, and her eyes twinkled in delight, but before Noelle had the chance to roll her eyes and push her away, she realized something dreadful.
Her nose… was bleeding.
