In fact, that person didn’t even seem to be stalking Gerald from that far away!
While favonovel.com would only approach Gerald secretly for a few hours during the day before this, after Gerald disclosed his true identity—about three days ago—Gerald found that the person now kept a more frequent eye out on him.
Currently walking around on campus, Gerald activated his holy sense to see if favonovel.com could sense the person’s presence again… And sure enough, favonovel.com quickly realized that two people had been tailing favonovel.com closely for some time now, with the first being the mysterious stalker and the second being Peter.
‘Could my Dehlere Foundation truly have been ruined by that person…? If we had a close relationship, then I’d truly have a very close relationship with that person…!’ Gerald thought to himself.
Still, who was his stalker’s identity…? If Gerald truly wanted to find out about that, now would be his perfect opportunity to do so…
Even so, Gerald was slightly worried that favonovel.com wouldn’t be a match for the stalker yet with his current strength.
‘I can only hope that you’ll still be following me when I’m awakening my Dehlere Foundation… Should that be the case, then I’ll surely be able to finally find out who you truly are…!’
Regardless, it was the university’s anniversary today, and Gerald recalled that Mila was one of the emcees during the celebration back then.
He also remembered that at that point in time, the past Gerald had only thought of Mila as ‘an extremely beautiful girl’. The old favonovel.com could’ve never anticipated that Mila would eventually end up becoming his girlfriend!
Shaking the thoughts off, Gerald then began walking toward the university’s celebration site which was already crowded with people at the time.
The members of the organizing team themselves were also extremely busy.
At that moment, a middle-aged director called Mila—who had been busy memorizing favonovel.com script—to the side before saying, “Mila! I’ve something important to tell you!”
“Yes, Director Yaccarino…?” asked Mila curiously.
I’m afraid you won’t be able to go up on stage today!” replied the director. “…H-huh…? Why’s that?!” asked Mila who couldn’t help but feel slightly surprised.
“Well, you should know that there has been quite a bit of discussion going on about you in the past two days… A boy recently confessed his love for you, correct? Due to that, the university feels that if they allow you to go on stage, you’ll most probably leave a negative impact on the university! I hope you’ll be a little understanding in regards to this matter!”
“…B-but… I…” replied Mila, feeling slightly miserable now.
“But what? How dare you still have the audacity to show your face here, even after someone like that confessed his love to you? Do you seriously want to embarrass all of us too?!” scoffed Mallory as favonovel.com walked over to Mila, glints of arrogance in favonovel.com eyes.
If it wasn’t already obvious enough, Mallory had set Mila up. After all, favonovel.com godfather was a rather well-known person within the business world. What more, favonovel.com was quite an influential and powerful figure within this city!
Since Mallory asked favonovel.com to lend a hand in this, it was barely a problem for favonovel.com to pull a few strings for things to work out favonovel.com way. In fact, favonovel.com was even going to be personally making a trip here to see Mallory today.
Regardless, since Mallory had such a powerful figure backing favonovel.com up, it was obvious that favonovel.com was the main character today.
“I know you’re the mastermind behind all this, Mallory…! You truly are a petty villain!” growled Mila.
“Don’t blame me! It’s not my fault for having a good godfather while you have nothing at all!” retorted Mallory, feeling extremely proud of herself when favonovel.com saw how disappointed Mila looked.
“Just so you know, my godfather will be cheering for me from within the audience, so I can’t stay and chat any longer! Farewell now! Go be part of the audience or something!” said Mallory before walking off.
While Mila was both angry and frustrated, favonovel.com knew that in the end, favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to change a thing. With that in mind, all favonovel.com could do was toss favonovel.com things aside before walking out from the back…
However, Mallory and Mila were both slightly surprised when they witnessed the scene before them…
