Sophie asked Nicholas nonchalantly, “So, why are you here? Are you here to seek revenge on me?”

She did not want to waste her precious time on insignificant people like him.

Nicholas was unbothered by her coldness and explained, “I sought you out today because I’ve missed you. That’s the only reason.”

He risked his life to meet her because he yearned for her. He would not have minded if he died because of his decision.

Sophie was rendered speechless.

She questioned how to talk sense into her admirer’s head.

In the end, she threatened, “Stop following me, Nicholas, or I swear you’ll die by my hand.”

It was a genuine warning.

Much to her chagrin, Nicholas smiled indulgently and replied, “Oh dear, but what else can I do? I’d be happy to die at your hands.”

Sophie scoffed coldly at his response.

Why must he throw himself wholeheartedly into this unrequited love? I will never accept his feelings.

He tried to garner her sympathy. “Don’t be so cruel to me, okay, Sophie? I really, really like you.” Can’t she feel my sincerity?

Sophie ignored him. She adjusted the grip on her textbooks and prepared to leave.

Alas, Nicholas refused to give up and followed her doggedly.

“Where are you going? Let me join you!”

He continued smiling brightly, totally unaffected by her frostiness.

Sophie warned, “That has absolutely nothing to do with you. Stop following me.”

It did little to deter Nicholas. Does she take me for a joke? I was threatened my whole life growing up!

Scrunching her brows in frustration, Sophie turned and leaped into the air, sending a kick flying his way.

Nicholas expected her attack and swiftly grabbed her leg. Before he could pat himself on the back for anticipating her actions, Sophie flipped in the air and kicked him with the other leg instead.

Her attacks were strong and fast, and even someone as skilled as Nicholas struggled to fend her off.

He staggered backward in the middle of their fight and shouted, “Stop it!”
