Was that really Romeo?
The sRomeo they knew, who was so reticent and icy, devoid of emotion?
It's true what they say, every man in love turns into a boy. That's no joke.
From the looks of it, Romeo seemed to be more head over heels for that girl. She, on the other hand, had been playing it cool
throughout.
That level of composure was impressive.
"Today, | suddenly realized David is quite a looker," Romeo said, paying his friend a rare compliment.
"Isn't it just because you're in a good mood and everyone seems nice to you?" Arabella chuckled. "Don't you think that the backup
dancers are really dedicated and have sslick moves too?"
Romeo nodded, "Yeah, and | also think you're looking particularly charming today, really adorable."

Arabella couldn't withstand his gaze and once again turned her attention to the stage.
"If | were to start performing, would you watchwith the seyes you have for David, attending every concert?" Romeo asked
in a low voice.
"Nope, no tfor that."
Romeo watched her with a smile. The girl's blunt response made her even more endearing to him.
As the concert was drawing to a close, Arabella leaned in and whispered, "I'm going to the restroom."
"I'll cwith you," Romeo instantly offered, starting to get up.
"Just stay here and shoot the video, I'll be right back," Arabella patted his head, signaling him to wait patiently.
Romeo leaned in again, whispering, "Callif you need anything."
"Sure."
No sooner had Arabella left than Alma nudged Romeo, "Hey! What a coincidence. | had no idea it was you."
Romeo gave her a glance and his aura instantly turned frosty, a stark contrast to how he was with Arabella just moments before.
He absolutely hated being touched, especially by women.
In less than a second, Romeo turned his head away, not sparing her another glance, let alone greeting her.
Today he was in too good a mood. On any other day, he'd have stripped off his clothes and tossed them away in disdain.
"Alma, do you know him?" the noise in the venue was so loud, Hannah had to shout, "Who's that guy? He's so rude."
From where Hannah was standing, she could only see the back of Romeo's head. He had turned around so quickly and was wearing
a mask in the dim light, so she didn't recognize him.
"It's nothing, just mistook him for someone else," Alma had to cover up.

"What did you say?" Hannah shouted back, looking at her friend in confusion.
"I said | mistook him for someone else—" Just as David finished his song and the fans' cheering had quieted down, Alma's voice
carried to the front.
She felt like she was suffocating with embarrassment.
Even the business tycoons in the front row turned to look at her, and she just wanted to crawl into a hole.
Backstage, Arabella found Jossie monitoring the concert. Surprised to see her, Jossie exclaimed, "Bella, what brings you here?
Hungry? Thirsty? David bought you a bunch of stuff earlier, it's all here, letget it for you."
"lI cto see you."
"To see me?" Jossie was even more surprised, "Oh, | saw Romeo propose to you earlier, so romantic! I'll look forward to your
wedding. My engagement is on the 1st next month. I've told David, so you two better come!"
"You're getting engaged?" Arabella was a bit surprised but still smiled gently, "Congratulations."
