However, Levi abruptly waved his hand and said, “It's alright, Jane. You don't ha I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about Levi's tone. Leyland Eric both had such strong personalities, after all. If they were t After having dinner, 1 brought Levi back to my place. His place was still under renovation, so he was crashing at my place for the time being
I was helping Levi with his unpacking when the doorbell suddenly rang. Levi
set down his clothes and went to answer the door. Yet after waiting for quite some time, I still didn't hear any movement from downstairs.
After making my way downstairs, I found Levi and Eric seated opposite each other, their expressions dark and brooding.
"Is this the guy that lousy scumbag was talking about earlier, Jane? I guess he's decent-
looking, but let's be honest-
he's still far from worthy of you!" Levi said with his chin held high, dismissing Eric without a second thought.
Eric narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze sweeping across Levi before settling on me. “Is this the so-

I sat down and looked at Eric helplessly, asking, “Is there something important that you r Eric gave Levi a disdainful glance, then placed an invitation before me, saying, "It's an invitation to a business banquet by one of the top jew I didn't refuse the invitation. It was too good of a social opportunity to let slip by, after all.
"If there's nothing else, then please leave. Jane and I still have to unpack, and we don't need anyone getting in the way!" Levi said unhesita Eric's gaze briefly flickered past him, his expression remaining unfazed. He then smirked as he slowly stood up, saying, “If I were you, I'd do mere junior. I don't even know what's there to be proud of."
Levi's pupils gradually dilated. "I'm warning you, Erie. You'd better not push your luck! I'm only letting this slide for Jane's sake. If you keep p
