Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 145: Are You Hiding Something From Me?

With that, Mason reverted to his old plan.

He started joining gatherings again-not to socialize, but to monitor Azrael and figure out why he was persistently approaching Sapphire. After that day, Mason discovered that Azrael had been talking to Sapphire almost daily.

"Where's Azrael?" he asked Haze, who was currently engrossed in watching porn.

They had just finished training at Ash's house and decided to rest there for a while. Mason shook his head in disapproval.

Haze didn't say a word, simply pointing to the other room. Mason quickly went inside. Azrael wasn't there, but his phone was on the table.

As if on cue, a text notification popped up, revealing a picture Azrael had set as his wallpaper.

It was a stolen shot of Sapphire, and Mason hated that her lower undergarment was visible in it.

He grabbed Azrael's phone from the table just as Azrael walked out of the bathroom. Mason immediately confronted him.

"Why do you have this picture on your phone?" he demanded, showing Sapphire's photo. "This is harassment."

"I don't care," Azrael retorted mockingly. "Why? Do you know her? Do you like her too?"

Unable to contain his anger, Mason grabbed Azrael by the collar and shoved him against the wall.

At that moment, Mason didn't care about the treaty between the three families. He wouldn't tolerate someone like Azrael. "Answer my damn question first," Mason said coldly.

"Whoa! You're so fucking serious, huh?" Azrael laughed, raising his hands as if surrendering, but then quickly snatched his phone back. Mason didn't even flinch. Azrael knew Mason was observant and quick to react.

"Sapphire is her name, and she's my type," Azrael said nonchalantly. "That's the kind of girl I like-quiet, reserved, but easy to get." Mason's patience was gone, his expression darkening.

"What?" Azrael laughed again. "Why are you so affected? I'm just being honest."

The smirk on Azrael's face didn't fade, even when Mason lunged at him.

Just as Mason was about to throw a punch, someone grabbed his arm, holding him back.

"Leave him alone," Ash said in a low voice, giving Mason a deadly look.
