When It Rains, It Pours (7)

Haylee's heart turned cold the moment she heard Neo's threat. She did not expect the latter to choose death over joining hands with her. It made her wonder why he was so adamant about rejecting her.

From the start, 'Tyr' did not try to hide his hostility towards her. At first, she thought it was because she was royalty. However, after discovering his identity, she believed it was just how he was.

But now, Haylee believed there must be another reason 'Tyr' would rather die than join hands with her.

"Why are you making things difficult?" She could not help but ask through gritted teeth.

Neo did not answer.

He could not give her an answer. After all, he was only a puppet substitute, and all his memories were based on the data his master entered into the system and information about his interactions with the Crown Princess.
