Chapter 263 The Stubborn Lucius

Neither Jordan nor Anthony had shown up, so technically, no one at the school should know her.

Even if they recognised her for her celebrity status, they should have called her by her full name.

Turning around, she was met with a face that was both delicate and threatening. He looked clearly annoyed, his deep phoenix eyes stirring a storm, framed by a chilling, frosty aura. Even the veins on his forehead were visible.

It was Lucius.

Milly was surprised at how familiar she felt around him that he would call her like that.

On top of that, he looked rather upset at the moment. His stare almost felt like he was blaming her for something.

As this idea popped into Milly’s head, she was taken aback by her creative musings and swiftly pushed it aside.

Indeed, she was overthinking things; he was just a side character! He was the male protagonist picked out by the book’s author, who was supposed to have a thing for the female protagonist, Milly. It seemed impossible for him to be interested in anyone else.

Realising this, Milly felt better and cheerfully said to Lucius, “Hey Lucius, did you come for the new student introduction?”

Lucius’s face turned even grimmer, his eyes shooting icy daggers. He ignored Milly’s question, asking Samuel, who stood by her, “And who is he?”

When she picked up on the tone of his question, Milly’s warm smile faded, and her brows knitted together in a frown.

What is his problem?

It’s not like their relationship was at a point where they shared each other’s plans. Why was he acting like a jealous husband? She wasn’t the main character, Stephanie.
