Chapter 95 Are You A Fool

Eileen’s mesmerizing eyes, sparkling like rippling water, gazed at the person before her who was laughing wildly and reveling in her misfortune. “You scoundrel! Do you find it amusing. to play pranks on others?” Eileen held her twisted ankle, tears welling up from the pain.

Elm leaned slightly forward, his narrow eyes gleaming with amusement as he focused on her. “Why wouldn’t it be fun? Eileen… you truly deserve it!”

Encountering Elm here was an unexpected surprise for Eileen. In her opinion, his background didn’t justify his presence in such a place.

Every time I run into him, nothing good ever happens.

Eileen felt unbearable pain throughout her body. She staggered up from the ground, brushing off the dirt on her skirt. Fortunately, she wore a black skirt, so it didn’t show much. “I must be unlucky to run into you,” she mumbled.

Without engaging in further argument, Eileen prepared to leave.

Suddenly, Elm’s impatient voice echoed from behind, “Hey!”

Quickly turning around, her gaze cold and indifferent, Eileen didn’t spare him a glance as she walked along the small path paved with stone bricks, each piece following the other.

In the next moment, she was effortlessly lifted into the air, hoisted up by his single hand. Before she could react, Eileen found herself lying sideways on his shoulder.

“What are you doing! Put me down! Elm!” Eileen exclaimed, feeling dizzy as she hit his back.

The light still illuminated the third floor, where a man stood tall by the floor-to-ceiling window. His demeanor exuded nobility, his speech refined. However, his eyes held an
