Chapter 139: Provocation

　　 　　 　　Though Beverly didn't attend many social gatherings, everyone at this ball knew her. After all, they were all from the same social circle, whether through business or from school connections. 　　 　　Seeing Beverly and Casper being affectionate, Princess Amalia tactfully left to chat with others. 　　 　　Casper felt a slight pain where Beverly pinched him and looked down at her with a smile. "Take it easy. If I can't hold back a sound, people might think we're doing something inappropriate in public." 　　 　　Beverly immediately understood and gave Casper a shy, annoyed look. 　　 　　This expression made Allen, watching from a distance, stare in a daze. 　　 　　Beverly’s shy and annoyed look was too hard to resist. 　　 　　But before he could stare longer, a sharp gaze fell on him. 　　 　　It was Casper, warning him! 　　 　　Casper even went as far as to kiss Beverly lightly on the cheek in front of him. 　　 　　This was pure provocation. 　　 　　No man could tolerate such a challenge.
