Chapter 288

Jake still had his baseball cap pulled low and a face mask on, making it tough to get a good look at him, but the classroom fell silent the moment he stepped in.

Everyone stared, slack-jawed, at the doorway.

Was that... Jake's voice?

His eyes dimmed slightly as he spoke, "You gotta stop looking at me like that.”

Merry blinked, "What's wrong?"

"I can't help but think of doing something... not quite suitable for kids.”

His words turned Merry's face into a tomato!
