Cassian looked at Raven, his lips pressed into a thin line. Soon, a bright but cold smile slowly spread across his handsome. face. “Congratulations to you, then.”

With that, Cassian turned around and started to walk away. However, the moment he turned, Raven suddenly grabbed his left hand.

With a tug, she pulled him toward herself. Caught off guard, Cassian leaned toward her due to the inertia.

Seizing the opportunity, Raven kissed his cool yet incredibly soft lips.

Before Cassian could react, she leaned in and whispered into his ear, “Darling, no matter how good other them can compare to your gentlemanly charm and thoughtfulness,

men

are, none of

“In my eyes, all the men in the world combined can’t match even one of your fi

of your fingers.”

Cassian’s attempt to break free from Raven’s grip suddenly paused. Her compliment involuntarily curled the comers of his lips into a faint smile.

But he quickly composed himself, his handsome face turning stern as he let out a barely audible snort. “You think a little flattery will make everything okay today?”

Raven smiled again and leaned in to kiss his thin lips once more. “Don’t be mad, okay?”

Cassian instinctively wanted to retort, Tm not angry,” but he realized how unconvincing it would sound.

He hesitated and didn’t say it. Instead, he glanced at Raven and firmly held on to his last line of defense. “I said flattery won’t work. Why don’t you go make nice with your new pets?”

With that, he turned around and walked away without a backward glance.

“Raven thinks she can get away with a few kisses? She needs to understand the

e consequences of being flirtatious. I can’t let her think she has me wrapped around her finger, he thought to himself.

Blake, who had been spying from the shadows, hurriedly followed Cassian.

I knew it. Mr. Lysander wouldn’t just forgive Raven with a couple of kisses. He always has his principles and boundaries. But why is Mr. Lysander walking slower and slower?‘ he wondered.

Soon, Blake realized it wasn’t his imagination. Cassian’s pace was indeed slowing down, almost like a snail’s.

Blake paused for a moment, then quickly asked with concern, “Mr. Lysander, is your leg uncomfortable?”

Cassian didn’t even glance at Blake. As the distance between Cassian and Raven grew, I his aura became colder and colder Raven stood where she was, watching Cassian’s slow gait, and slowly a smile spread across her face. Cassian is so cute. He’s using his actions to urge me to chase after him. That’s so adorable, she thought.

“Are you not going to chase after him?” Preston, who had walked up beside her, asked with a complex expression.

Raven slowly shifted her gaze away and countered. “Did you need something from me?”

I happened to come across a basic framing and first–year freshman schedule today. I thought you might find it useful. Since I had nothing else to do, I brought it to you, Preston said, handing her a stack of nearly brand–new papers.

“Thank you for your thoughtfulness, but I probably won’t be able to follow the school’s schedule after basic training. You can leave that schedule for the freshmen who need it,” she replied with a polite smile. “It’s getting late. I’ll head back to school

now”

Raven casually glanced at Cassian, who was still standing in front of the Bentley, and then turned and walked toward the

school.

Preston watched her leave without any hesitation, and a clear sense of loneliness flickered in his eyes.

But soon, his usual gentle smile returned to his face, though it now carried a hint of bitterness.

At that moment, the sound of a car door slamming shut echoed loudly.

Inside the car. Cassian’s cold aura seemed to freeze the air around him.

Blake, who had followed him into the car, was so scared that he curled up in the driver’s seat, trembling.

Despite his fear, he hesitated for a moment before finally mustering the courage to speak. “Mr. Lysander, she didn’t really have any contact with Preston, and she didn’t take his gift. So why are you-

Before Blake could finish, Cassian’s glare silenced him. “Do you think the most important part of today’s situation is whether she had contact with that guy or accepted his documents?”
