Lory shuddered as if she saw a loathsome bug on Lilly's other side instead of being moved, she was rebuffed by it, and her face was contorted like a wrinkled old rag, looking like she was more disgusted than Lory's.
"I'd rather be an old spinster living with hundreds of cats than marry a man like you!" Lily shrill in total outrage that no doubt everyone in the cafe and passers-by under the balcony would hear it.
Ron's face turned white and blue, he subconsciously clenched the pendant hanging around his neck, "No...No, it can't be, right? you love, don't you?... Lilly?"
"Love you my ass, we've only been dating for three weeks, why should I love you!" Lilly glared at him.
Lilly didn't know where Ron got his confidence, they were only just starting to know each other so why did he think she would love him so much to the point of ignoring his affair with her friend, nonetheless? did he think she was that stupid?
"Lilly, don't say that, you love me, I know you love me... have you forgotten me?" There was a strange glint in the locket she was wearing and not just the locket but her gold earrings and bracelet.
"I... no, I love.. you?" Suddenly Lilly's expression changed, the anger and disgust on her face turning into confusion and daze
Turns out it wasn't just jewelry, Lory was caught off guard, realizing it only now.
Lory raised his hand and then chanted the spell "Wind Blade!"
A gust of wind shot up like an arrow being released and hit the locket and all the jewelry Ron was wearing, the bits of jewelry must have cut his skin. He screamed in fear and fell on his butt, the same thing happened to the girl beside him. He.
Lilly, on the other hand, recoiled from her daze, she looked around in confusion.
"You'll be fine now," Lory patted Lilly on the back.
Lilly looked at Lory with a questioning expression.
"You were under a charm before but you are fine now" Lory felt sorry for the young girl.
Ron, on the other hand, gave Lory a shocked look, 'How did she know?!'
Lory picked up the jewelry shards scattered on the floor and then examined them for a brief moment soon after a sneer bloomed on her pretty face "Oh my, I haven't seen this type of charm in a long time, you even put three types of charm that would increased your succeed rate, you quite greedy and cruel cause if it's take long it would drive the victim in madness, that's why this charm is illegal, right?" one of the corner of Lory lips lift into a sinister smile.
Lilly's face turn ashen as she gaped in horror, her heart pounded and anger spouted inside her like molten lava, "You put a charm on me!"
Being lied to hurt, being betrayed was heartbreaking, but being deliberately pranked and fooled was even worse, Lily felt humiliated and her pride was completely trampled on, She no longer knew how to face everyone he loved, she felt so ashamed!
Lilly rushed Ron then raised her hand and loudly slapped his cheeks cheek, the sounds from the slap reverberated throughout the entire place.
Ron was sent flying for a second before falling to the floor, meanwhile, Lory watched with her jaw drop, never in million years she would think a gentle-looking girl like Lilly can be so violent...wait a minute, someone like that too…..ah, Yang Xi Ying was also scary when she got angry.
"Ron, honey!" Linda screamed in shock, just like Lory she didn't expect Lilly to openly use violence. I don't think he likes this loser but there's nothing wrong with pretending to care this might increase his fondness towards her.
Linda rushed to help Ron to get up from the floor, at the same time because of the commotion that happened the shop assistants and guests came to see what happened.
Ron realized people were watching them, his face turned bright red he felt very embarrassed, many people has recorded them with their cell phones while whispering and laughing.
Ron had quite the reputation as one of the Augburn family heirs. He also used to attend big parties at clubs and big events with rich kids and celebrities before the war and after the war so people knew him quite well.
Ron was not one to be shy of the cameras and publicity but he didn't want to be seen in such a pathetic state, he knew this is will ruin his public image, embarrassment engulf him and then turned to anger but he couldn't blame Lilly because the Hamilton family was above his family hence all his anger was directed at Lory.
"You. It's all because of you! If you didn't…."
"You will succeed in brainwashing her, that's no good young man and frankly quite sick too" Lory sarcastically said.
Lory's voice was not loud but not low either so anyone could hear clearly what going on, the gasps from the crowd were heard everyone stare at Ron in shock and disbelieve, many of them looking at him in detested immediately Ron's faces became pale, "Shu...shut up, don't you dare slander me, I will report you to the authorities, you know I can put you in jail for a very long time!" panic makes Ron running his mouth like a mad man it seems he had forgotten where he is right now, all he wanted was to make Lory stop talking.
Lilly didn't stay silent when she heard Ron threaten Lory in her face "Good, I will also report you, I will sue you and I will make sure my whole family will know what you did to me!"
Ron was stupefied, his heart was pounding in his chest, at this time he knew for certain he was in big trouble.
"Wa...wait a second Lilly, don't do that! You know I did that because I love you so much, I was afraid you would reject me so I used this despicable way but I really love you, I love you so much..." his eyes twinkled as he pleaded pitifully, he did look very sincere and apologetic, suddenly everyone felt sorry for him.
Lory rolled her eyes "You used a charm to bewitch Lilly after that you cheated on that hot girl yet you said you truly loved Lilly, it's that make sense? "
"....."
The crowd's eyes simultaneously darted from Ron to the woman next to him. Linda, who was wearing a sexy dress, showing her voluptuous body, looked uneasy, she was afraid that her face would be plastered on all social media and seen by her friends. She knew it will ruin her image and reputation hence it give her more reason not to leave Ron at any cost.
Lilly's face instantly become ugly even after what happened he still try to trick her, luckily they didn't do anything beyond kissing.
"You are so disgusting!" Lilly had never felt so sick of men before, Lilly didn't want to spend any longer looking at Ron's obnoxious face, she hugged Lory's hand and then pulled her away "Let's get out of here!"
Lory nodded but then she remembered she left her bag on the street "Oh shit my shopping bag!"
"Lilly wait!" Ron suddenly jumped up and grabbed Lilly's wrist.
Ron gripped her wrist so hard making Lily winced in pain, seeing her hurt, Lory reflex grabbed Ron's wrist then twist it until it make a cracked sound, and then kicked him in the stomach.
Once again Ron was thrown into the air but this one was farther away than the first.
The audience watched the scene like watching a tennis match, one time he launched an attack then he was intercepted, then received a counterattack, he was kicked into the air, and lastly, he fell face down on the floor.
'Ugh, that must be painful' Unknowingly everyone shared the same thought.
"Lilly, your hand!" Lory saw a red mark on Lilly's wrist and feel bad for her.
Lilly shook her head "I'm fine, it's fine... Honestly, she was scared when Ron grabbed her hand but luckily she had Lory by her side, and after seeing how easily Lory subdue him without breaking a sweat Lilly was certain she had nothing to be afraid of.
Lory frowned, "Are you sure?"
"He's not that strong," Lily said in a mocking tone that everyone could hear.
