Chapter 327: Not a Lovers Quarrel
Chapter 327: Not a Lover’s Quarrel
When Zach was with Aurora and the church was being cleansed by the girls, something was going on in a lone house near the farm.
Misha was sleeping alone in her room. Her bed was by the window, which was closed, and the curtains were covering the glasses, so no light was passing through.
The room was filled with darkness, but Misha’s body was shining a little for some reason.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and sat up straight as though she had just had a nightmare.
“Argh…” She grabbed her head and grunted in pain before turning on the lamp beside her bed.
“What’s happening? Why is my head suddenly aching? And why did I wake up?” she asked herself and glanced around the room to make sure she was alone.
She moved her hand to the jug on the table to drink the water, but she realized it was empty upon grabbing it.
“Come on…”
Jane reluctantly placed her feet on the floor and got off the bed. She left her room with heavy steps and went downstairs. But the curtains around the window of her room suddenly swayed as though a breeze had passed. However, the windows were still closed shut.
Misha made her way downstairs and walked straight to the kitchen without turning on the lights. She opened a big rectangular box and took out a water bottle from it.
‘This is truly an alternative to a refrigerator. But it works on magic instead,’ Misha thought and closed the door.
After drinking a few sips from the bottle, Misha moved her hand to open the box again but stopped and muttered, “I will take the bottle to my room. I don’t want to come down again.”
She walked out of the kitchen and walked toward the stairs. But she stopped when she saw a shadow passing from her peripheral vision.
She grabbed the bottle upside down and stood in a defensive position before scanning the area with her eyes.
“Misha?” a male voice asked.
SIGH!
Misha let out a sigh of relief and turned on the lights to see Kayden standing in the kitchen.
“You should have said something if it was you!” she yelled at him.
“Same to you. I didn’t even notice anyone was there until I saw your scary eyes shining in the dark,” Kayden commented.
“What do you mean scary! And you could have just turned on the lights. Why were you walking in the dark anyway?!”
“Same to you.”
“You know very well that I like to stay in the dark. And it’s annoying to turn on the light after waking up from sleep. My eyes need time to get adjusted to the light and then to the dark once I turn the lights off,” she reasoned.
“Same. I just came here to drink water.” Kayden opened the box and let out a weary sigh.
“What?” Misha asked curiously.
Kayden pointed his gaze at the bottle Misha was holding and said, “That’s the last bottle.”
“Here.” Misha tossed the bottle to Kayden and said, “Drink fast. I need to complete my sleep.”
Kayden drank the water and passed the bottle back to Misha.
“…” Misha glared at Kayden and threw the bottle at him. “It’s empty! Why did you drink all of it!”
“What do you mean? It was only half filled.”
“Then you should have left some sips!”
“Stop yelling. It’s all your fault, to begin with!” Kayden pointed his finger at the empty bottles lying on the kitchen platform and said, “You didn’t feel the bottle.”
“Yeah, but I thought you would fill them like you always do.”
Kayden frowned his face and uttered, “There are times when I am not in the mood to go along with your bullshit!”?.?.??.? n.?.?.??
“What the—! Why are you suddenly angry now? Stop overreacting on everything!”
Kayden ran to Misha and grabbed her by the shoulders. He glared into her eyes and said:
“Overreacting? I am overreacting?!”
“Stop…” Misha tried to break free from Kayen’s grip without making him suspicious.
“You are the one who has made a big mess by playing with my feelings!”
“Is it about our fake marriage?” Misha groaned, “Come on! We have already talked about this like a hundred times now! We had a mutual agreement, and you were okay with that. So what’s this drama now?”
“….”
“Don’t act like a victim here. You are making me look like a bad girl. I have done nothing wrong.” Misha shrugged her shoulders and said, “Instead, you should be thankful to me that I am taking care of you.”
“What do you mean? I am so stressed out, you know?! I feel like I am in a prison where I can’t even enjoy my life!” Kayden shouted.
“Well, welcome to life! Everyone feels the same. You are not alone!”
p??da n?vel Kayden furrowed his brows and asked, “Why did you even marry me?”
“To get the rewards?”
“You know, when I met you for the first time in the game, Zach asked you what you were doing in the game. And you replied that you logged in to this game because of me. Was that the truth?” he asked with a judging look on his face.
“Kinda…”
Kayden squinted his eyes and said, “You logged in for Zach, didn’t you?”
“Yes…”
“I knew it! I fucking knew it!”
“Why are you making such a big deal out of it?!”
“No shit! What else am I supposed to do? The girl I have loved ever since I was a kid, who is also my step-sister, loves another boy— who is my best friend! How am I supposed to feel?”
“What are you on about? It’s true that I joined the game because of Zach, but what does that have anything to do with all this? And I am living with you, not Zach!” Misha finally frowned her face and said, “I feel like you are becoming more and more arrogant day by day.”
“Same for you. You are no longer like the girl I loved. I always knew that you were haughty, but you have crossed the line. Why can’t you act cute and innocent as you act in front of Zach?”
“Again…” Misha clenched her fists and said, “Why are you bringing up Zach again and again?!”
“Why else? I know you have feelings for him.”
“…!”
“You love him, don’t you?”
