Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 113

The man that bumped into Ranz is like a sports celebrity. He was a tall guy with a perfectly well-built body. He looked like he frequented the gym. Additionally, he looked like a foreign guy with a handsome face.

Ranz couldn’t help but look at the man menacingly. Not only he was annoyed that the man ignored him, but he also didn’t like how the man talked to Nida casually and called him weak.

“Oh, why are you with a weak guy?” the bulky guy asked Nida, without hiding his scornful gaze toward Ranz.

“Why are you still sitting on the floor? Get up.” Nida ignores the man and helps Ranz get up by pulling on his arms.

Ranz saw the man’s brows furrowed and twitched, which made him tease him more by making a smirk.

“You are still the same Nida. Why don’t you stop babysitting this kid and date me?” Ranz was pushed to the side by the man. He lost his balance and fell to the floor again.

“Hey, Ranz, why do you keep tripping?” Nida said while looking down on him. Her eyes were so cold that it made Ranz look into the floor rather than get up.

“Oh boy, the baby will cry.” The man said, while laughing.

“Get up.” Nida comes close to him again. “I am not annoyed with you. I am annoyed with this random chubby guy in front of us. Why does he keep bumping his pigskin on you? Did you get some of his oil? ”

Ranz was dumbfounded and confused about what was happening.

“r-random guy? Fats? This is not fat! These are muscles!” The man was embarrassed and grabbed Nida’s arm to pull her close to him. “You never change. Are you sure you want to come back to this place?”

“You must be mistaken; I have no plan to come and join you again. That was the rebellious young Nida. I am too old to play with you anymore.”

“Ha! Then why are you coming here right after the selection was announced? Don’t dare play innocent in front of me.”

“Ugh! You’re too annoying. I just came here for some other things. Don’t worry, after this I won’t be coming here anymore. You disgust me.”

Nida slapped the hands of the man, and she pulled Ranz’s arms to get up. They ran fast to get away from the man and his minions, but after turning into a corner, Nida used her dust to teleport to Ranz’s car.

“Who are they?” Ranz asked, not even surprised that he was now sitting in the driver’s seat.

“Drive and let’s go home.” She answered while breathing heavily. She didn’t expect that used up all the power on the twig that the world tree had given her, and using the teleportation spell felt painful and heavy on her body.

“Are you okay?” Ranz asked worriedly.

“Just fucking drive!” she shouted. She now knows how Daniel feels when he feels sick after using the teleportation spell.

Ranz drove the car so fast on the way home that it almost flew.

“Can you walk?” he asked after he got off the car and opened the door for Nida, but she didn’t move and just pounded her chest.

“Do I look like I can walk?” The more pain she feels, the more irritated she gets. She feels like every sound she hears is getting into her nerves, even Ranz’s breathing is annoying to her.

“T-then excuse me.” She was princess-carried inside by Ranz and placed in her bedroom to rest.

“S-sorry.” He said, fidgeting in front of Nida.

“Why are you apologizing again? Get out. You’re making me feel worse.” Nida wrapped herself in a blanket and didn’t even bother to remove her sneakers.

Dispiritedly, Ranz went out of Nida’s room but stayed and stood in front of her door.

“I don’t know how.” He mumbled.

Ranz is worried about Nida’s health and frustrated that he doesn’t know how to take care of a sick person.

Randell, with alpha werewolf blood, hasn’t gotten sick since birth. That is why Ranz never had the chance to know what to do when someone is burning with fever. He did watch some on TV, but he never knew if he could do it well or if it might make Nida feel worse.

He bit his thumb while pacing back and forth in front of Nida’s bedroom, thinking of a way to help.

“Oh! Randell!”

He believes Randell, who is more human to him, knows how. He dialed Randell’s number on the telephone and waited for him to answer.

“Answer! What took him so long to pick up the phone? ”

“Hello?” Finally, the call was picked up, but a female voice answered it. Ranz looked at the digital screen of the telephone to check the number he had dialed, checking if he had dialed the correct number.

“This is Randell’s number, right?”

“Ah, yes.”

“Then where is he?”

“He was out for inspection. He would be back after an hour or more. I’ll inform him that you have called or call again after an hour. ”

Ranz cursed internally, wondering why Randell left his phone.

“W-wait! Can you give the number to whoever he is with? This is an emergency. I need to talk to him now.”

“May I know who is speaking?”

“Why do you have to know? Just give me the number of who he is with!”

“Sorry sir, but I can’t give my colleague’s number to a stranger unless you identify yourself now.”

“I am Ranz Lobo!”

“All right, Sir Ranz Lobo, how do you know Sir Randell?”

Ranz stomped his feet in frustration. The lady he was talking to was so calm, as if she didn’t have a sense of urgency. Ranz’s voice is trembling, but the lady on the other end of the phone is unconcerned.

“I am his brother,” he exclaimed, indicating that she should hurry.

“Nice try, sir, but Sir Randell is an only child.” The lady accused Ranz of being a scammer.

“Who the fuck are you? You’re not even close to Randell. How would you know? ”

“Sir Ranz had been working here for a long time, and he always told us that he was an only child.” The lady started to laugh on the other side of the phone. “Anyway, nice try. Good luck scamming other people. bye. ”

tot tot totttttttttttttt

Ranz was frozen while holding the telephone to his ear.

He bit his lips so hard because he felt like crying again.

“If only I knew that this would happen, I would have bought myself a phone or memorized their numbers.”

Ranz was thinking of Wendell and Daniel, who he thought could help him, but he didn’t know their numbers.

He can’t even leave the house because he doesn’t want to leave Nida alone.

“Ah! Nida’s phone!”

He hurriedly searched for Nida’s bag that was lying on the living room’s floor.

“Ugh, her bag is like a trash bin.” He commented after taking out so much trash, like candy wrappers, used tissue, unsealed crackers, and some other things.

“I hope her password was the same.” Ranz mumbled while trying Nida’s high-school password.

“Of course! She changed it!” He sneered at his own foolishness, knowing full well that he would have changed her password a decade ago.

“Her birthday? No? mother’s birthday? No? my graduation date?”

Enter password: 040212

“Is she a masochist? Why would she let the wolf attack her password?” He wondered. He thought Nida was trying to forget that traumatic incident, but why did she make the date her password as if she intended not to forget about it?

“Hmmm. I’ll ask her later.”

Ring, ring, ring

Ranz dialed Daniel’s number.

Ring, ring, ring

Daniel didn’t answer Nida’s call instantly anymore. He has now learned to ignore Nida’s call.

Ring, ring, ring

Ranz pursed his lips and tapped the phone in his head.

“Please please answer!”

“What?”

“Ah! Daniel!”

“Ugh, Ranz, right?” Daniel sounds not very pleased to hear Ranz’s voice.

“Yes, yes. Help me! ”

“No.”

tot tot totttttttttttttt

“What the fuck! Why did he end the call?” Ranz was flustered and dialed Daniel’s number again.

*The number you dialed is either unattended or out of coverage area. Please try your call later.*

“W-what the fuck! Why did he turn off his phone?”

He doesn’t have time to grumble and be angry. Instead, he scrolls over Nida’s phone to see who else can help him.

“Toto? The kid that followed us around? This is the same person, right? ”

He dialed Toto’s number.

He doesn’t know if it’s the same person, but he wished that it would help him.

“Hello? Nidz?”

“You answered with just one ring!” Ranz was easily made to feel happy after being ignored multiple times.

“Who is this?”

“Oh, you! You don’t know me, but I need your help.”

“Help? Why are you using Nida’s phone? ”

“I am at her apartment now. She is sick, but I don’t know how to take care of a sick person. Please, please help me.” Ranz desperately pleaded.

“Oh no, she’s sick? What’s wrong with her? I can’t go there though. Call 911 instead.”

“No, no, it was just fever! Nida doesn’t like going to the hospital! Just tell me what to do!”

“First, who are you?”

Ranz rolled around the floor while screaming without a sound. He is frustrated that everyone is trying to identify him, since he doesn’t really have an identity in the first place.

“Ugh! Can’t you just help me!”
