Chapter 318

Orion's foot swung out with force: "Beat it!"

"Aw, come on, didn't even touch me! My bro's losing his cool!"

Matthew, clutching his behind, grimaced and scampered off into the distance.

Shortly after, Lemira emerged from the restroom.

Spotting the two men outside, she asked, "Where's Matthew?"

Hearing Lemira mention Matthew made Orion's eyelid twitch: "He's got a dinner plan with some friends."

"Oh, is that so? You know such impressive people, then why didn't you mention it when he logged into your account?"

Facing Lemira's inquiry felt like walking to the gallows for Orion.

He tried to sound nonchalant: "Impressive? I wouldn't say that."

A bit of arrogance in his tone there.
