Chapter 184 Only Talk Back to Humans
"Are you trying to tell me to act like a b*tch?â Kate pursed her lips and asked. âIt doesn't matter
what you're acting like as long as you achieve your goal. If Landon cares to find out why you're
upset, or why you're avoiding him, that means he has feelings for you. If he doesn't make a move,
you could forget about him because he has no feelings for you at all.â Upon hearing the last few
words, Kate felt like she had lost the glimmer of hope she once had. âI don't think I can do that.
Furthermore, he is still in a love bubble with Melanie, so what makes you so sure that he'll think of
me?â âWell, you'll never know if you never try. Maybe he is just being insensitive for now. When you
finally have him at your mercy, you could do whatever you want to him, but you must remember to
hang in there and treat him like a stranger for the time being.â âAlright!â Kate nodded. âYou could
even find a decent man to provoke him, but you mustn't find someone like the man you met in the
bar the last time. If you do that, you will not only fail to provoke Landon, but also make yourself
look cheap,â Camila then added. âAlright, I know what to do. How do I look now? Do I look obvious
that I've cried?â Kate took a deep breath and asked. âStill good, but your eyes are still a little red.â
Camila then proceeded to fix her makeup. âThere you go. Now you look much better. Let's go.
You've been here long enough, and people are going to know you cried here if you donât get out
there soon.â âLet them know then!â âThat'd be embarrassing!â âThey didn't see what was going on
here anyway. So, just tell them I got drunk or something.â âI doubt they're even going to ask.
Besides, I bet no one else knows how long you've been gone.â Camila looked askance at her while
Kate was simply too fed up to say anything in response. Soon, Kate returned to the table, catching
Landon'âs eyes as he jokingly said, âYou've been throwing up forever. Did you puke your guts out?â
Instinctively, Kate wanted to talk back, but soon recalled Camilaâs words and looked away to ignore
him. Meanwhile, Landon only stared at her in confusion. âHey, what's wrong with you? You've never
stayed quiet when someone teases you. I must say I'm really not used to that.â Then, he tried pulling
Kate's sleeves to get her to respond. âHey, I'm talking to you.â Soon, Kate turned around and glared
at him with a serious expression. âI only talk back to humans. That's why I ignore you.â Upon hearing
that, Landon continued her sentence in her mind. You're obviously not a human! When he finally
caught on to
what she meant, he knitted his brows and retorted, âWhat's wrong with you? Did you get up on the
wrong side of the bed?â However, Kate only looked away and turned a deaf ear to his words.
As Melanie noticed Landonâs relentless attitude toward Kate, she quickly pulled him closer and said,
"Show some manners. After all, Katie is still a lady.â Frustrated, Landon raised his voice at Melanie, âIf
she talks to you like that, do you think I'd âstand by and do nothing? Didnât you hear what she just
said?â
Not long after, Kate felt suffocated. She could barely breathe as if someone had stabbed her with a
blade and turned the cold steel around to torment her. A few moments later, she let out a sigh and
turned her attention to Camila. âCamila, I want to make a move right now.â âSure, I'll see you off.â
âIt's okay. There are still guests here. Attend to them, I can take care of myself.â Kate then placed her
hands on Camilaâs shoulders and sat her down before she informed everyone else but Landon and
Melanie that she was going to leave. As her figure slowly disappeared from sight, Landon was
frustrated and baffled. What did I do to deserve that? I was just asking how she felt after she went
missing for so long, yet all I got in return was such a terrible attitude. Just then, Melanie leaned
forward and seized Landon'âs arm, silently meeting his gaze with a smile.
