Chapter 224

Eden's eyes narrowed slightly. Though his smile remained, it took on a more playful edge. It seemed he was considering something. I didn't concern myself with what he was pondering and went straight to the point. "Mr. Griffins, if it's difficult for you, then never mind." He chuckled awkwardly and said, "There's nothing difficult about it. Even if you wanted me, I'd gladly agree." His response was a bit too smooth. But before I could say anything, Derick cleared his throat twice, as if to remind Eden. Eden let out a mischievous laugh and made a gesture at me. "Ladies first." I wasn't interested in dragging things out with him. Since he wanted me to start, I decided to finish it quickly. So, I took my cue and cleared the table without giving him a chance. Eden didn't look like someone who had lost a round. Instead, he applauded and said, "As expected of Derick's sister! You really are something." He added, "I'll accept this loss. But you have to let me show my skills too, right?"
