Chapter 358: The Start of a Relationship?

3/5

"Is it true that you like me?"

At Evie's question, Ren felt like someone lit up a nuclear bomb inside his mind. While he kept his face stoic, in reality, his feelings were all around the place, and his brain was too jumbled to form anything coherent. For a whole ten seconds, he just stared at her.

Leonel, on the other hand, was also shocked. Ren was in a pinch, and so was he. He knew more than anyone that, despite his friend's emotionless face, the latter was actually too stunned to speak.

That was why, right now, Leonel was the one feeling troubled and stuttering as he responded.

"W-what made you say that?" Leonel asked, trying hard to steady his voice, but miserably failed.

'Despite being quiet most of the time, Evie can be really brutal if she wants to,' Leonel mused to himself as he nervously stared at Ren, who still hadn't recovered until now.

He must be really in shock and caught unprepared for the sudden question.
