A Film Queen of Two Worlds novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263 The Stubborn Lucius 

Neither Jordan nor Anthony had shown up, so technically, no one at the school should know her. 

Even if they recognised her for her celebrity status, they should have called her by her full name. 

Turning around, she was met with a face that was both delicate and threatening. He looked clearly annoyed, his deep phoenix eyes stirring a storm, framed by a chilling, frosty aura. Even the veins on his forehead were visible. 

It was Lucius. 

Milly was surprised at how familiar she felt around him that he would call her like that. 

On top of that, he looked rather upset at the moment. His stare almost felt like he was blaming her for something. 

As this idea popped into Milly’s head, she was taken aback by her creative musings and swiftly pushed it aside. 

Indeed, she was overthinking things; he was just a side character! He was the male protagonist picked out by the book’s author, who was supposed to have a thing for the female protagonist, Milly. It seemed impossible for him to be interested in anyone else. 

Realising this, Milly felt better and cheerfully said to Lucius, “Hey Lucius, did you come for the new student introduction?” 

Lucius’s face turned even grimmer, his eyes shooting icy daggers. He ignored Milly’s question, asking Samuel, who stood by her, “And who is he?” 

When she picked up on the tone of his question, Milly’s warm smile faded, and her brows knitted together in a frown. 

What is his problem? 

It’s not like their relationship was at a point where they shared each other’s plans. Why was he acting like a jealous husband? She wasn’t the main character, Stephanie.

Thinking about it, he fits the bill as the most unstable and problematic character in the story, always diving headfirst into trouble. It was surprising he hadn’t met a grim fate yet. 

Samuel felt something was off with Lucius, too, but couldn’t quite figure it out. Being friendly, he introduced himself, “Hey, I’m Samuel, a sophomore here. Do you know her?” 

Lucius glared at him. “No.” 

Samuel was confused. “Excuse me?” 

Lucius added, “She belongs to me.” 

Samuel waited for him to elaborate. After an awkward silence, he had to ask, “Belongs to you in what way?” 

Lucius stayed quiet, casting an uneasy stillness around them. 

Milly had her limits when it came to putting up with disrespect. Seeing his cold shoulder to everyone, she didn’t see the need to keep up the friendly act. The warm smile was immediately wiped off her face. 

“We’ve barely met, Mr. Scathings. I don’t think our relationship is that involved, is it?” 

At that, Lucius’s expression turned even more severe, with a threatening look in his eye, giving his handsome features a menacing twist. 

“So, you’re saying we’re not friends then?” 

Milly didn’t know how to respond. 

Is he misunderstanding on purpose, or what? 

How did he manage to get into Crestfallen University? And how did he land the second- highest score in the country on the college entrance exams? Did he guess his way through the reading comprehension part? 

She arched her eyebrow, replying, “We’ve only met twice, and I don’t remember agreeing to be your friend.” 

Lucius tightened his lips, his gaze locked w… Milly’s. “So, do you want to be

friends?” 

Milly rolled her eyes and dismissively said, “Thanks, but no thanks? 

“What would it take for you to think about it?” she asked, 

“I’m not interested at all!” 

This caught Samuel’s attention, who was nearby, making him realise their relationship was nothing special. The guy before him had been nursing some unrealistic expectations all along. 

Wasn’t this the moment for him to step in and play the hero? 

Without a second thought, Samuel moved forward, positioning himself protectively in front of Milly. With over six feet tall stature, he effectively shielded Milly as he looked sternly at Lucius, saying sharply. 

“Excuse me, but it seems a bit out of line to act this forcefully here. Haven’t you noticed how clearly Milly is bothered by your persistent attention?” 

Samuel had also noticed how Lucius kept using Milly’s name, almost as if that’s all he knew how to call her. 

Suddenly, a dangerous shine appeared in Lucius’s eyes. Before anyone could move, he had already grabbed Samuel’s neck firmly. 

“Who let you talk to her like you’re on friendly terms?!” 

Lucius’s hold on Samuel’s neck tightened menacingly. 

Surprised by the sudden hostility from the young man in front of him, Samuel didn’t see the attack coming. The swift move left him gasping for air, wholly unprepared. 

Before he knew it, he was struggling to breathe. 

Milly quickly cursed and hit Lucius’s wrist with enough force to make him let go. As he let Samuel go and stumbled, she immediately asked him, “Are you okay?”
