Chapter 249: The bet that didn't go well (7)
After having breakfast, I went straight to the exclusive training hall reserved for Angela. No one can enter it without her permission and that is the reason why we did the deeds in there, whenever we could.
When I opened the doors, I saw silhouettes standing in the middle of the training hall.
Who could that be if not the twins?
The twins are arguing with each other in a low voice. It reminds me of what happened less than a year ago, to be specific. They were both arguing just like now, and Angela was upset back then too. I learned later the reason for that. Her father is bartering them both away for the benefit of the family.
The reason, why I started to train again diligently after a gap of a few months.
If I were to ask for Angela, if possible Celine too, then I should be an exceptional one. I need to achieve something that no one has achieved in their lives and that too in such a short period.
Though the time I had was small, I believed that I could prove to my future father-in-law, that I am a worthy son-in-law.
For that, I worked hard, harder than I used to.
Whether I can Angela or not depends on whether I can impress her father. A lot was at stake here and I can't let slip up.
So, I ranked up faster, and levelled up my skills faster in order to be ready for the perfect opportunity.

"Hey y'all", I waved at the sisters to grab their attention.
They were so immersed in their argument that they didn't even sense me entering the training hall. one thing that I learned about greeting women was that I should maintain a distance.
If they get frightened, they may retreat to their holes, never to surface again. It would not be a good thing if you were trying to impress them. Read latest chapters on mvl
The twins turned towards me when they heard me and I could see a bit of surprise on their faces.
As I thought, they were too immersed in their argument and didn't observe their surroundings well enough.
What would happen if it were an enemy who appeared at this time?
So to prove who was right, they made a bet.
They created a phoney scenario where their father is looking for bridegrooms for them and they have to leave the academy. I would have only two years to prove myself to my future father-in-law if I wanted him to become my father-in-law.
The reason why Angela spilt the beans was because of the monster tide.
She believed that I took that mission to improve myself faster and it almost killed me. She was not wrong about that though. I did take that mission to improve myself and also become a bit famous. It would be like a plus point on my resume.
It was all for nought anyway.
There was no one to impress anyway.

I know what Celine did was to protect her sister from a possible use and throw-away situation, where her sister would get hurt.
I understand her situation. Whatever she did, she has nothing against me but did that to protect her sister, but that doesn't mean I am not angry at her.
I am pissed.
Angela disappointed me more than I can think of. She even believed that a little of what her sister said might be true.
A crack enough to accept the bet.
If she had believed in me, then she would have rejected that bet and should have said that I would never abandon her.
She didn't.
I know what they did was to protect themselves but the torture I had to go through for almost a year is not an easy thing.
If she had any doubts, she should have at least asked me about that.
Though I understand her, doing this is not a good way to build a relationship. I needed some time to think about it and that's what I told her before bolting out of there.
