For a brief moment, the atmosphere in the room was thick with tension, as if it was on the verge of freezing over.

The two of them remained motionless for nearly half minute until Celeste suddenly jumped up, eyes wide open.

But before she could even take a step away from Rex, a sharp pain in her scalp yanked her back.

Her hair was tangled in Rex’s flashy diamond–platinum watch!

Clearly feeling the girl writhing like a startled kitten, Rex’s expression shifted several times. With his free hand, he pressed against her lower back and suddenly lowered his voice, “Don’t move!”

Celeste instantly froze.

Her big, blinking eyes widened in shock and flushed red. Her small lips were tightly pressed together, the corners trembling slightly–her fury barely contained, yet tinged with a hint of embarrassment and grievance.

Rex quickly said, “The priority is getting your hair untangled.”

With only one hand free, he tried his best to loosen it, but somehow, the more he worked, the tighter it

got.

Celeste couldn’t take it anymore. She grabbed the fruit knife from the table and swung it down without hesitation.

Startled, Rex instinctively yanked his hand back. Snap! Celeste finally stood up. A strand of black hair was now wrapped around the strap of Rex’s watch.

Still gripping the knife, she pointed it at him. “Forget what just happened!”

Rex swallowed nervously. “Don’t worry. Nothing happened at all … not a thing!”

Celeste sat on the other side, still holding the knife, looking completely puffed up with anger.
