Staring at the figure at the door, Elspeth automatically racked her brain to put a name to the face. In the end, she came up with the name, ‘Kenneth.’

He looked very much like Frank but without the delicate aloof features. He appeared a little young with his rounded eyes, which seemed to be smiling at the edges, and a dimple on his cheek.

It didn’t occur to her that Kenneth would look younger than Frank.

“You’re Elspeth—no, wait. You’re Elsie, right?”

Next to them, Frank couldn’t figure out what they were speaking about and nodded in a daze.

Bursting into laughter, Elspeth said, “You actually made your way here? You’re nuts!”

The esport fanatic who comes and goes without a trace.

“Your skills are amazing. If it’s okay, will you join our club? We’ll definitely give you the best treatment.”

While speaking, Kenneth’s eyes were shining brightly as though he was looking forward to her joining the club.

All of a sudden, it struck Elspeth that not only did he look young, but his personality was also somewhat innocent.

Nevertheless, she shook her head and turned him down. “I’m sorry, but I don’t like this job, and I’m doing it just for fun.”

Taken aback, Kenneth didn’t think that a person who could beat him so easily was not fully invested in gaming.

“We have a competition with another team in a couple of days. May I invite you to participate with us?”

After careful consideration, she turned him down again. “I’m sorry, but I really don’t want to compete.”

Out of the blue, she kind of regretted battling him because she felt that he was stuck on her, and she couldn’t get rid of him.

“But…” Charisma wasn’t his forte, and he was so anxious that he almost burst into tears.

Meanwhile, Elspeth was struck by guilt when she saw that he desperately wanted to invite her but was at a loss for words and almost drove himself to tears instead.
