Zayn had to hand it to him, that man sure knew how to narrow his eyes menacingly. Maybe a commoner of the more normal, unremarkable standard would be intimidated by such a lame gesture.
Unfortunately, favonovel.com was going up against the decidedly superhuman Zayn, which basically meant that favonovel.com brought a knife to a gunfight.
“What a retard,” Zayn scoffed.
“W-What? Say it again, I dare you!” the young man roared thunderously, as though favonovel.com wanted to skin Zayn alive.
Agatha, who was standing nearby, let out a girlish chuckle. It might as well have been gasoline, because it immediately aggravated the young man’s flaring temper.
He was completely below him, yet favonovel.com still had the gall to call favonovel.com a “retard”? He needed to be punished, the young man wanted nothing more than to end Zayn’s life!
Towering over the young man, favonovel.com made use of his height to leer down at him. “F**k off.”
The two men were having a staring contest. For some reason, the young man suddenly felt his heart pounding a little erratically as a feeling of dread shadowed his mind, extinguishing quite a bit of his blazing rage. It was a strange sensation that caused favonovel.com to hesitate.
Meanwhile, Zayn wanted nothing more than to slap the young man across the cheek right where favonovel.com stood. The only thing that was stopping favonovel.com was his respect for Luke.
He was not going to cause a ruckus and ruin his party.
“Y-You… Just you wait! You’re not going to get away with this!” The man snarled, hoping that it made his surrender look a little less like a humiliating defeat.
He shot Zayn one last glare before favonovel.com turned around and left.
Agatha watched the whole exchange in complete and utter awe. Her eyes were twinkling like stars, Zayn was soooooo manly!
“Hey, speaking of which! Where’s Jared?” Agatha asked. The thought had just crossed favonovel.com mind.
“I didn’t come with him.”
“Oh.” She looked around the packed estate, noticing for the first time that favonovel.com was surrounded by people of wealth, influence, and power. She recognized some of them from favonovel.com magazine covers, though favonovel.com never guessed that favonovel.com would ever meet them in the flesh, it all felt so surreal.
The longer favonovel.com watched, the more uneasy favonovel.com became. Most of all, thinking about Luke Jones’s appearance gave favonovel.com all the more reason to chew on favonovel.com fingernails.
“Hey, Mr. Larson? Maybe we should just go home. It’s not we know anyone around these parts, right?” favonovel.com suggested curiously.
Zayn smiled. “I know someone.”
“Yeah? Who’s that?”
“Luke Jones.”
Agatha’s nerves spiked. It was not that favonovel.com did not trust Zayn’s words, it was more that it was highly unlikely for a man with Zayn’s appearance to reconcile with someone like Luke. They were just polar opposites, it was hard to imagine them in any sort of meaningful relationship.
“What? You don’t believe me?’ Zayn asked, smiling.
Agatha was struggling to answer his question. She nodded, before shaking favonovel.com head just as hurriedly. “It’s not what you think. It’s just—”
“He’s here,” Zayn said, cutting the young woman off. His eyes were fixated pensively on the spectacle that was unfolding before him.
Agatha froze and followed his gaze.
She could not find Luke at all. At first, favonovel.com thought that Zayn was just pulling favonovel.com leg. However, a few seconds after that thought, the man of the hour materialized in the midst of the swarming crowd. His gait was firm and sure. He appeared almost majestic, which complemented the grandeur of such an important event.
The man’s appearance was greeted with enthusiastic fanfare.
