Curse The Mainframe - Chapter 427
Alec raised his brow when he saw with his own eyes about Katherine’s messy affairs.
He didn’t really think much about it when she told him about her fake dating, but when that fake boyfriend became her current boyfriend, he was a bit speechless.
This worked too?
What kind of luck was this? Getting a boyfriend when you were just helping someone out?
It hadn’t even been that long, but she only took a week to convert the fake boyfriend into a real boyfriend?
Alec had been torn between hilarity and speechlessness.
Now, standing in the middle of the market, Katherine was ‘held hostage’ between the two parties fighting over her, her face blank. But her eyes showed how dumbfounded she currently was.
There was a man and a woman fighting over her, lightly tugging Katherine this way and that.
They were attracting a lot of attention to themselves, but neither Brian nor Jae seemed to have any intention of giving up.
Alec slowly blinked and went around to some stores to buy some snacks before munching on them as he continued to watch the show from a good vantage point.
It wasn’t often he got to see real-life drama like this, after all.
What was Katherine going to do next?
Alec silently tutted. She didn’t keep an eye on her affairs and things had developed to this stage. He felt a bit of schadenfreude at this.
Could it be that this girl who was clinging onto Katherine’s arm so adamantly was that Brian’s ex-girlfriend?
It seemed like the ex-girlfriend had latched onto Katherine, the current girlfriend instead.
Alec suddenly found it hilarious and his lips twitched as he continued to munch on some seeds.
“Katherine is my girlfriend!” Brian insisted.
“She doesn’t even like you!” Jae spat back, her eyes scorching fire.
She didn’t really want to appear like this in front of Katherine, but she really felt like she’d met ‘the one’ this time. She’d never felt like this for anyone ever before, and she wasn’t willing to give up.
It was different from her usual ‘loves’ who were the ones that chased after her first. She now knew that those were all fake. They were not meant to be. But the feelings that Katherine inspired in her were something else altogether.
But Jae knew that she had to see about Katherine’s opinion in the end. Yet, that didn’t mean that she wouldn’t fight for it.
Maybe her attachment to Katherine had grown very abruptly, but that didn’t make the strength of her feelings any less than Brian’s.
Brian glowered at her. “That’s not true. Is it, Katherine?”
Inwardly, the Sin was a bit anxious. Because he knew that Katherine really didn’t have many feelings for him. At most, it was just a bit of goodwill towards him, but it couldn’t be considered love.
He didn’t know why he’d fallen for her so quickly, considering both of them were Sins, but it was clear that it wasn’t exactly reciprocated on the other end.
Katherine, who was pulled this way and that felt like she had whiplash from looking between the two.
What were they doing?
Finally, Brian’s question caused her to lose her temper.
“Enough!” she said, flinging the two away. They stumbled back a few steps, but they continued to look at her with pleading eyes.
Katherine was truly speechless. Could they not make a scene here in the middle of the plaza?
Were they crazy?
No, this would not do. If it continued on like this… with the amount of people here watching them…
She felt a headache incoming.
Not good…
What if her brother, or goodness forbid, her teacher, heard about this happening? Wouldn’t she just lose all her face right there and then. One was her ‘real’ boyfriend, while the other was the current boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend. Then, that ex-girlfriend was now going after her.
What was this f.u.c.k.i.e.d up love triangle!?
And why was she part of it?! She’d truly stumbled into it blind!
Why her?!
She didn’t think that she was so fatally attractive to make people crazy like this. It didn’t make any sense. She was not the heroine of some romance novel!
Katherine’s head whipped in the direction of the crowd who was standing around watching the drama, and she glared at each of them, silently telling them to mind their own business.
Some of them dispersed, while the others glared right back, adamantly staying to watch the drama.
How could they give it up? If there was one other thing that was synonymous with Sins other than their love of bloodshed and violence, it was their love to gossip.
Perhaps it was because they fixated on one or two things at a time, so it wasn’t very often when there was gossip worthy material in the clan.
They were just naturally inclined to listen for information and use it as… well. Blackmail, to put it simply.
Whether or not they used it was another matter altogether.
However, when Katherine was busy glaring at people as Brian and Jae fought in the background, her face abruptly changed as she caught sight of her teacher and cousin munching on seeds with a curious expression on his face.
Oh my god, the worst thing had happened. It was even directly witnessed by Alec!
She felt like digging a hole for her to crawl into.
She felt so embarrassed.
Instantly, she lost her temper again. She turned around and glared at the two before shouting out, “Brian, let’s break up!”
Then, she stormed off quickly.
Jae and Brian stopped fighting almost immediately before quickly running after her.
Along the way, the two glared at each other, sparks flying in the air.
Jae knew that she shouldn’t have reacted so strongly, but she really couldn’t hold it in when she thought that she was being threatened by Brian’s presence.
It was a character flaw of hers, but it was hard to correct it.
She bit her lip. She had indeed been hasty this time. They didn’t even know each other for more than a few hours yet, and she was already fixated on her?
Any normal person would have been scared away long ago!
But what she didn’t know was that Katherine had no thoughts regarding this, but they could have chosen a better place to have a dispute!
It had been seen by her most respected cousin, whom she took as a teacher! She always wanted to look the best knowing that she had left a horrible first impression on her cousin, so she’d always been trying to correct it, but her shameful appearance had been seen by Alec so clearly.
Eventually, Katherine ran back to where she usually trained in her anger, her chest heaving violently. She truly…
She might not appear that arrogant anymore, but deep down, she still had her pride.
The Sin soon heard the sounds of footsteps that sounded like they were trying out outpace each other appear.
She crossed her arms and glared in their direction.
Just exactly what had they been trying to achieve? Did they not care about their reputation at all?
The two soon appeared.
One of them had the Klein Clan’s classic looks, while the other appeared like a weak and gentle girl who had large, watery eyes.
“What exactly are you trying to achieve?” Katherine asked coldly, looking across the two people’s faces. “Let me tell you, I’m no longer interested in pursuing a relationship with either of you.”
She did her best to throw them far away. They could fight all they wanted, but not over her.
