CHAPTER 97: STALEMATE

A frustrated frown appeared on Kyle's face after being rejected by Jessica.

"Why?" Kyle asked, still frustrated.

"I'm sorry, but I can't."

"You still love Greg, don't you?" Kyle asked, his voice cold.

"I don't. I just can't love another after being hurt badly by the one I loved so much."

"I understand. Perhaps after I kill Greg, you will realize how much I love you." Kyle smiled at her before deciding to walk away. "As for the demonization, you don't need to worry about it. I will stop it a week before your complete demonization," he promised, earning a graceful smile from Jessica.

"Wow, quite the aggressive lady, huh? Earning a kiss from him—how did it feel?" Lilith asked. She had walked in seconds after Kyle left. It was evident she had been spying on them, but Kyle and Jessica couldn't care less. It was Lilith—nothing you do or say matters to her; she will do whatever she likes.

"It's none of your business," Jessica remarked.
