Chuckling in response, Xanry then smiled before saying, “Before that, I’d like to head to the washroom first!”
“Sure thing!” replied Gerald with a nod. While favonovel.com knew that Xanry was trying to escape, Gerald didn’t feel the need to expose him.
Whatever the case was, Xanry then got up and quickly left for the washroom.
Now that favonovel.com had finally managed to escape from Gerald’s evil grasp, there was no way in hell that favonovel.com was going to dare offend Gerald anymore.
Soon enough, the classmate party ended smoothly and Gerald drove home together with Juno…
The second they stepped into favonovel.com house, Juno instantly smiled as favonovel.com turned to look at Gerald before saying, “You’ve teased Xanry so much today, Gerald!”
Laughing heartily in response, Gerald then replied, “He’s at fault for offending me in the first place! I certainly couldn’t just let favonovel.com off after favonovel.com did that, could I? Besides, you’re happy that I teased favonovel.com too, no?”
Upon hearing that, Juno nodded before delightedly saying, “Of course I’m happy! That guy’s been pestering me since my university days, you know? At long last, someone humiliated him!”
Since Gerald had humiliated favonovel.com so much, favonovel.com was sure that Xanry wouldn’t pester favonovel.com ever again. That was one troublesome person done with…
At that moment, a tiny creak was heard…
Turning to face the door that had opened, the duo watched as Ray slowly walked out…
Upon seeing them, favonovel.com then quickly jogged toward them while saying, “Mr. Crawford! Miss Zorn! You’re back!”
“We are, but why are you still up, Ray?” asked Juno.
“I… I’ve been waiting for you to return! Old Flint sent you something!” explained Ray.
“What? He did? What did favonovel.com send over?” asked Gerald curiously.
Upon hearing that, Ray re-entered his room before returning with a box and handing it to Gerald.
“It’s this unopened box with a letter attached to it! I’m guessing that Old Flint wrote the letter!” explained Ray.
Hearing that, Gerald then took the box and quickly opened it… only to reveal a perfume bag inside that constantly emitted a faint, pleasant smell…
“…That smells so wonderful! I wonder why Old Flint sent you a perfume bag of all things…” muttered Ray.
While the gift was a pleasant surprise to both Ray and Juno, they quickly realized that Gerald was instead, frowning. Did the perfume bag symbolize something…?
Not even bothering to reply to Ray’s statement, Gerald then quickly began reading through Old Flint’s letter… and by the time favonovel.com was done, his frown was much, much deeper than before.
Seeing how furrowed Gerald’s brows now were, Ray—who had never seen Gerald show such an expression before—couldn’t help but ask in a concerned tone, “What’s wrong, Mr. Crawford? What happened? Your expression looks so unpleasant!”
“Indeed! What did Old Flint say, Gerald?” asked Juno.
“…First of all, this perfume bag… It’s called ghost-luring perfume, and as its name suggests, it’s used to lure ghosts. Moving on to the letter, Old Flint apparently wants to head to a place called Grimhelm to investigate some secrets regarding vampires. Though he’s asking me if I’m willing to go with him, since favonovel.com sent me this perfume bag, I’m sure favonovel.com means business. After all, I told favonovel.com to only send this particular kind of perfume bag over if major issues came up!”
