That question was easy and she didn't need to lie. So, she finally dared to look into his eyes.
"I came to see Erica."
“You and Erica have never seen each other before. Why were you looking for her?" Gifford asked, frowning.
She shifted her eyes away again and lied calmly, “We have never seen each other before; that's why I wanted to meet her. I didn't expect to bump into her as soon as I arrived at the Pearl Villa District!"
As she said this, she remembered the funny moment when she saw Erica.
She couldn't help laughing.
No wonder the Leonard family always said that she was much more obedient than Erica ever was. Indeed, Erica was such a troublemaker. At least, Chantel wouldn't climb over a wall to escape from home. Well, even if she wanted to, she didn't have the ability to do so.
Erica deserved to be in the family of the two Gods of Warriors!
“Hey, what are you laughing at? Be serious! Ten-hut!" Gifford commanded. ‘Is Chantel not afraid of me either, just like Rika?’ he wondered in confusion.
Upon hearing this, Chantel stopped smiling and stood straight with her back against the wall.
“What did you do after you met with Rika?" Gifford continued after a brief pause.
Looking him in the eye, Chantel answered honestly, "Oh, we went to eat wontons. Afterwards we booked a hotel room and went straight to bed.”
Gifford remembered that the two girls didn't know each other's identity until he entered the room just now.
“Are you telling me that you two strangers went to eat wontons together? And then shared a hotel room?" he asked, raising his eyebrows. ‘Is Erica a fool or is Chantel too bold?' he thought to himself.
Chantel immediately shrank back in fear, frightened by the anger in his tone.
"Erica is not a bad person."
"I know she is not a bad person. It's just that she has an innate ability to get herself into trouble. I don't want you hanging around with her in the future. She's a bad influence; stay away from her!" As the saying went, “One who has been in the company of wolves will learn to howl." He didn't want Chantel to follow Erica's bad examples.
Chantel, however, felt differently.
"Although Erica is a little naughty, she is kind-hearted and generous from the bottom of her heart."
Gifford Looked up at her and snorted in laughter.
“Wow, you've only known each other for a few hours. I can't believe that you are actually defending her already! What did Rika do to you to make you side with her? Tell me the truth! What did she tell you in the bathroom just now?"
“Well...she told me to take good care of her parents after I go back to
Askor. Then we exchanged our contact information. That's all." Chantel decided not to tell Gifford what she was planning on her mind.
If Gifford could be fooled like this, his title of the God of Warriors would be a complete waste.
“If you don't tell me, I will..."
