Chapter 35 : Third round

I slowly breathe, trying to stay calm.

I know that getting upset won't prove my point.

“Sebastian has been after me for almost a week now. He calls me every day,” I confess to Levi.

He raises an eyebrow and looks at me with a cold expression. The calmness in his countenance makes me nervous.

“And you didn't tell me about this because...?”

“Because I know you'd kill him if you found out,” I confess, moving closer to him.

“Don't doubt that I will,” he murmurs.

Levi holds out his hand and I sigh. I reluctantly hand him my phone.

He goes through the list of unanswered calls for the week, numbering over a hundred.

“I thought he would give up if he saw I wasn't interested. Evidently I was wrong, so I asked him to leave me alone.”

I sigh. I take a seat in front of him, and look at him. His expression hasn't changed.

From how well I know him, I know he's very upset, though I can't figure out if it's with me.
