Chapter 801 It Is You

Emrys mused to himself. How astute of them.

“Sylvia, Ninette!”

At that precise moment, a voice suddenly rang out. Sprinting in their direction, Hollie hollered a greetingfrom afar. Following behind her was a young man in white. He also made his way toward them.

“Ninette, I was just looking for you…”

Ninette had been at Cloudmist Academy for a few days now. Hollie was Sylvia’s best friend, so shenaturally started hanging out with Ninette too.

Just as she was about to run over to say something, she suddenly noticed Emrys standing beside thetwins and paused in surprise.

Emrys‘ hair had grown out a bit, and he was wearing a baseball cap, so Hollie didn’t him muchattention at first. Her gaze was wholly focused on the twins.

pay

It wasn’t until she drew close that she made out the young man with a cap to be Emrys.

Hollie’s eyes widened in surprise. “It’s you?”

Her memories of Emrys remained during their time at Crimson Sun Sect. Back then, she and Sylviaspent a long time searching for him at the sect, but they never found him.

After that, he was never mentioned again.

Even regarding the matter of the Morris family replaceing Ninette, Sylvia only spoke of it briefly to Holliewithout revealing that Ninette was actually Emrys godsister because Ameera reminded her that it wasbest to mention the man as little as possible.

That was why Hollie was surprised to see Emrys at that moment. She had no idea why he was withSylvia and Ninette.

“Ms. Stewart, I’m not a monster. Why are you so surprised to see me?” Emrys quipped with a smile,seemingly much more at ease.

Hollie composed herself.

How could I not be surprised? You’re the inheritor of Azure King’s will and possess such formidable

strength. Back then, you acted aloof and avoided us at every turn. But now, you suddenly appeared atCloudmist Academy. How could I possibly not be surprised?

For a moment, she was at a loss for words. She could only pull Sylvia aside and whisper, “Sylvia, howunfair of you. You found baldy, yet didn’t even bother to tell me?”

A bitter smile graced Sylvia’s face, and she casually replied, “He only arrived at the Morris residencetoday. I had no prior knowledge of it.”

Indeed, Emrys had only arrived at the Morris residence that day.

“He came by himself? Then, why was he avoiding us when we looked for him previously?” Hollic askedin puzzlement.

Sylvia remained silent, hoping to sidestep the topic at hand.

Hollie suddenly smacked her forehead, exclaiming, “I get it now! This is a strategy of playing hard toget!”

“Playing hard to get?”

Sylvia looked at Hollie with a puzzled and confused expression on her face.

Wearing an expression of understanding, Hollie said with unwavering conviction, “This is a typical tacticused by men. First, they replace a way to catch your attention. Then, they deliberately act aloof, creating asense of disparity within you. Consequently, they’ll be etched deeply in your memory. Think backcarefully. Remember how baldy was so flippant with you and even slapped your butt? It was all to catchyour attention. Once you remember him, he would play a game of cat and mouse with you, deliberatelyputting on a cold front and avoiding you at all costs. This tactic would deepen your impression of himand make you gradually fall for him even more. In truth, he set his sights on you long ago. He stirredyour emotions through this strategy of feigned indifference, only to effortlessly reel you in. Why elsewould he have suddenly showed up at the Morris residence today?”

Hollie analyzed the situation in her self–perceived cleverness, convinced she had seen through Emrys‘tricks.

However, the more Sylvia listened, the more bitter she felt.

I sure hope so. But unfortunately, Emrys isn’t playing any cat–and–mouse game with me. Instead, hemistook me for Ninette, which led to a series of misunderstandings. Although they weremisunderstandings, they indeed had the effect of playing hard to get, just as Hollie analyzed. This washow I gradually fell for him.
