"You forced me, you wretch. I didn't mind you being a Vampire, yet you dare to look down on me."
Glancing subtly in a certain direction, Adams said apologetically, "Please forgive my previous rudeness. I wish you all the best in finding love."
"Thank you. It's an honor to receive your blessing."
Alice's face flushed with a tinge of embarrassment; her earlier words had all been wishful thinking.
Looking at the stunningly beautiful Alice, Adams felt a heart-wrenching pain, as if his most cherished toy had been snatched away.
"Damn it. If I can't have it, no one else can."
A flash of malice flickered in Adams' eyes, then he laughed heartily, "Shall we walk and talk?"
"Um... I think you should go for a check-up at the hospital now."
Alice, feeling some resistance, had to use this as an excuse.
"No need. I feel better than ever. I can't wait to throw myself into work."
