Chapter 641 What if It’s All a Scheme?

Slevin's behavior offended Yelena. The furrow between her brows was a sign of her resentment. "Get your hands off me. Even though I'm staying at your place, I have the right to defend myself. I can't guarantee that I won't fight back if you cross the line."

"You surprised me, you know? You're quite a character. No wonder my brother is fond of you."

Slevin couldn't help but chuckle at her alarmed look.

He took a few steps back to keep a safe distance from her. "Forgive me. I just can't help it. You're adorable."

Yelena choked at his flirtatious behavior. "I'm not adorable! Can you be serious for a second?"

Her outburst took him aback before he suddenly burst into laughter. "I brought you a piece of important information a few moments ago. Is this how you show your gratitude?"

"Right. Thank you, but it has nothing to do with your behavior."

"I told you. I'm just messing with you."

"I don't find it funny at all."

"All right. All right. I'll stop talking about it if you don't like my joke."

Slevin's gaze fell on Yelena's puffed cheeks. He couldn't help but reach out a hand to pat her on the head, but she swatted his hand away.

"Listen. I think I've gotten enough information from you. It's my cue to leave."

At that moment, Yelena finally remembered she had tagged along with Federick to the banquet, and she forgot to tell him when she left.

She frantically took out her phone, only to find the battery ran out some time ago.

Slevin's brows shot up in amusement as he watched her trying to turn her phone on. "How about this? You can charge your phone at my place. Once the battery is full, you can leave."

Yelena was anxious. "Federick would be worried about me if I don't go back soon."

"Well, what can you do now? I don't suppose you memorized his number?"
