chapter 98

"Boss, did I do something wrong?"He looked at her earnest expression. He parted his lips to say something, but then he remembered how she had gotten angry when he talked rudely about Luca Hale. So, now he wondered if she would get angry again if he spoke something against that friend.But if he didn't get his answers, how was he supposed to settle that uneasy feeling in his chest?Their playful argument and teasing left him with a sour mood."Nothing."Something is definitely bothering him, Lucy thought.His expression didn't change, but his voice felt a little softer than before.Wait, wait now is not the time!"Boss! First tell me how did you hurt yourself? What happened to your cheek?""I fell.""..."He is lying!? Does he know how to lie? It is clearly someone's punch mark!"Boss, tell me the truth!" She put her hands on her waist. "Did you get into a fight? Who was he? Take me to him! I will show him!"How dare anybody punch my Godly handsome prince!"Don't worry Godly- *ahem!* I mean Boss. Even with that mark, your beauty isn't affected in the least. So cheer up! And show me the man!"In Shadow Eagle's base, Vicky sneezed aloud. "Achoo! Ahhh it's definitely Assistant Frank!" He sobbed. "He must be definitely coming here to kill me! I punched the Almighty Mafia King! He will bury me alive!"Eric slightly widened his eyes. The irritation in his chest eased down with the way he saw Lucy defending and worrying for him.His sour mood turned into a good mood like a switch."What will you do if you meet him?" He curiously asked."I will punch him back!" She fumed and said indignantly. "I will take my revenge for you!"At first, he froze. But then, a soft smile bloomed on his lips.Revenge for me…He was used to people following his orders. They did exactly as they were told. But he was unaware of the notion of somebody doing something for him out of pure goodwill or feelings. Where they weren't bound with any order.This was unusual. This was his first time seeing it.'Boss you personally came here to save her. You wanted revenge because she is your woman, right?'Eric's eyes widened in enlightenment.I see…Lucy wanted revenge for him, too, just like how he wanted. The difference being that she just wanted to punch that guy whereas Eric straightaway killed them.But the feelings were similar.That means Lucy also considers me as her man.
