61. Odd
"So, he is your colleague who spent the whole day with you?"
Turning slowly to face Adro, who was closing the door behind her, Grace nodded. "Yes, I just told you that."
"And he's also the one texting with you last night?"
Grace nodded again. "M’m."
Leaning against the door, Adro hid his clenched fists by folding his arms across his chest. "Why didn't you ever tell me about him?"
Adro’s face and his question tensed Grace's neck, but she had to control herself. This was her home and her life; they were just friends. Why should she feel scared and guilty like this towards him?

"Having dinner? Here? With you?"Adro nodded while savoring his steamed red beans. "You told him that I'm your family, and we're very close. Won't it be odd if I didn't want to know anything about your boyfriend?"Grace pondered for a moment before nodding. "Y-you're somewhat right."A smile formed on Adro's lips. He patted Grace's head. "Of course I am. Invite him to dinner here. Don't worry; you know I get along with anyone easily.""Um, Adro," Grace played with her food using the fork, avoiding eye contact. "Could you possibly have another motive besides making Sean less suspicious of you? Honestly, I think Sean would understand just by my explanation—no need to talk with you at a dinner.""Well..." Adro rolled his eyes upward, rubbing his chin with his fingers. "Actually, I have many reasons to invite him. Firstly, I'm afraid he might suspect my background, and I'm not sure you can explain me to him correctly. Secondly, I'm a bit concerned about you after hearing how your ex-boyfr

A sardonic chuckle escaped Adro's lips as he flashed a crooked smile. It turned out that the one wearing a mask in front of Grace was not him. That scoundrel was even more hypocritical than him."Didn't I tell you my reasons the other day?""I do remember. But I can't help but think: Isn't living together a choice? You claimed to be learning to live free from the stifling cultural influence of your long-deceased grandmother." Sean said.Adro raised an eyebrow. "Are you saying that we should live separately? Are you worried about our situation?""As fellow men, can you be at ease if your girlfriend lives alone with another man?" Sean folded his arms across his chest, shaking his head in frustration. "You two are not e

Lilford shook his head, then chimed in, "Actually, the problem is Adro claiming that the girl is not his girlfriend, so the haters accused him of being hypocritical and deliberately fooling his fans.""That's because Grace is my sister. Moreover, the issue is almost resolved now. Our anti-rumor team is skilled." Adro replied."Speaking of your sister, I think I saw a girl who looks like her with a guy in front of the Golden Time Hotel," Elvis recalled.Staring at Elvis with widened eyes, Adro asked, "Are you sure? Which Golden Time Hotel?""The one next to the Spring Hill Apartment, my girlfriend's place. That girl was wearing a brown coat, and the guy with her had black hair. If I'm not mistaken, his face looked Asian." Elvis explained.Adro returned his gaze forward, furrowing his brow. "It sounds like them. But Grace said they would watch a movie in the Varcici area.""Oh, don't tell me that guy is your sister's boyfriend?" Elvis guessed,

Sean's bare top body fueled Adro's anger to the core. "Where's Grace?" he growled."How did you get here?" Sean asked, furrowing his brow.Adro didn't answer. Instead, he barged into the room. Then, his body felt like turning into stone when he found Grace sitting on the bed, clad only in her undergarments."Adro?" Grace's eyes widened."Hey! What's wrong with you, dude?" Sean pulled Adro's shoulder from behind.Turning his back, Adro threw a punch to Sean's jaw, causing him to fall to the side. "You filthy scoundrel!""Adro!" Grace exclaimed, jumping off the bed.However, Adro, who was overwhelmed by anger, only had one thing on his mind: he had to finish off the scoundrel who had touched the woman he loved. With no second thought, he jumped to strike Sean's face repeatedly."You scum! How dare you touch her?! I'll kill you!" Adro snarled as he continued to throw punches, while Sean could only protect his head with both arms,

"All this time, I pretended to be foolish, as if I were just confused by the circumstances, but the truth is, I clearly realize that I love you. I concealed everything because you didn't feel the same way about me. You just see me as a friend. I was afraid to make you uncomfortable with me and even push me away.” Adro explained, hanging his face."But when that man came, I couldn't hold back. I couldn't stand seeing you with him. I couldn't just stay silent and smile while another man held you and embraced you right in front of me. I couldn't bear to see you look at another man with love when that look was what I always yearned for from you." He continued.Gulping down, Grace didn’t know what to say. She was silent for a moment and tried to speak, "Maybe… maybe you are just…""I've never been more serious, Grace. I truly love you." Adro replied wholeheartedly.Biting her lower lip, Grace continued, "What about Joselyn? Don't you love her?""No, I don’t." Adro shook his head. "I don't
The Groom From The Fairy-Tale Land 67. Two Different Paths
A black sedan with extremely tinted windows was parked near a skyscraper. Anyone passing by wouldn't realize that the driver, who was wearing a hat and dark sunglasses, was a famous model who had been in the limelight for almost the past two years. His crystal-blue eyes fixed on the building's entrance. After half an hour of waiting, his eyes widened as a brown-haired girl with wavy hair finally appeared. He started his car when the girl reached her parked car right in front of the office building. Adro might have gone insane. He admitted that he was a psychopathic prince—a persona he never realized existed within him until he fell in love for the first time. Since leaving Grace's home, he has not contacted her again or met her in person, as per her request. However, it only made him realize how deeply he had fallen for her, a

“Are… are you mentioning the character Harry in the Rising Star project?” Grace asked.“M’m.” Tobby nodded. “He auditioned when you were on a three-day leave last week. But the list of actors who will play the Rising Star characters hasn't been officially announced to the entire team yet. That's why I thought they told you beforehand.”Blinking a couple of times, Grace shook her head. “I haven't heard anything. This article just happened to pop up in my browser ad.”“It seems you're also a fan of that model.” He muttered, then continued, “By the way, Mary said the actors will start their first meeting tomorrow.”"Here?"

Grace could only remain stunned. How was it possible to run into Adro today? She had heard that voice actors usually left right after their meetings. So why was Adro still here, even queuing for lunch in the cafeteria?"Oh, hi," Grace replied after being nudged by Maureen."Hey, can you two be quicker?" Said the person behind them."Yep. Sorry," Grace responded, hastily scooping up her food."Do you two know each other?" Steve asked, looking at Grace and Adro alternately as they stood on his left and right.Without answering, Adro just gazed at Grace. He didn't want to make any statements that might disadvantage her, so he preferred to let her lead the story."Oh, we… we're old friends," Grace answered, suppressing her nervousness by keeping her eyes focused on the food she was taking with a bit of hesitation."You and Adro? Friends? Why didn't you ever tell me?" Maureen questioned."It's been a long time," Grace answere
