My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 79

Chapter 79: He Followed Her To The Library
“What is he doing here?” Allison wondered as she stared at Kace who was walking towards her.

His height and aura brought attention to him, and people paused for a second when they heard him call her name.

Allison wanted to walk away, but she doubted Kace wouldn’t follow her to wherever she was going. Also, she was curious to know what he was at her university. She recalled not telling him about the name when he asked her one time.

“Allison, what a coincidence! So you go to this college? Wow, I actually came to see someone,” Kace exclaimed with his hands on his waist as she stared down at her.

Her white hair was tied into a new ponytail as always. Staring at her flushed face sparked something inside of him. His eyes narrowed at her when she hadn’t said anything yet.

“Well, aren’t you going to say something?” He asked her.

Allison huffed.

“Mr. Kace—”

“Just call me Kace,” Kace interrupted her. Hearing her call him Mr. made him feel old.

‘I’m not old like my brother,’ he thought to himself as he maintained a smile on his lips.

Allison huffed again.

“Mr. Kace,” she called, completely ignoring his words. “I don’t want to know why you are here but can you not call my name out loud like that? You had everyone looking at me for a second there,” she requested.

Kace tilted his head, not failing to notice a dark spot on his pale neck. Her eyes darted here and there, refusing to make eye contact with him while she hugged her books to her chest.

“Why not?” He asked, curious to hear her answer.

Allison stared at him for a brief second before she sighed.

“It’s just not right,” she said, intending to leave but Kace stopped her.

“Wait wait, I’m sorry for calling out your name. Come on, where are you going? Need me to escort you?” He offered.

Allison turned to look at him, wondering why the son of the Wallace family, the friend of the celebrity she was the makeup artist for, was talking to her.

His presence at the university was already a huge topic, and him talking to her in front of everyone would only make it hotter. She desperately wanted to avoid him, but from the determined look in his eyes, she knew that would be a difficult task to accomplish.

Allison ignored him and walked away, hoping that alone might embarrass him. But when she heard his footsteps following behind her, she could only sigh silently. Determined, she continued striding toward the library.

Thankfully, Kace only followed behind her, but anyone walking wouldn’t think they were walking together. He didn’t try to stop her or call her name either.

When they got to the library, Allison went to her spot which was behind a shelf. There were only two seats there. The shelf acted as a shield that would limit the eyes of someone who walked inside the library.

Allison loved staying in that corner because no one would know she was there and disturb her.

Pulling out of her seat, Allison sat down and dropped her bag beside her. Kace took a seat beside her after taking pics with every girl who wanted one. The librarian couldn’t stop him from walking into the library since he was once a student at the university, plus, his family background.

Kace watched Allison study, his gaze lingered on the dark spot on her neck with curiosity.

Unable to hold it in, he opened his mouth to ask, “What happened to your neck?”

Allison stiffened when she heard his question—she was caught off guard by it.

Turning to look at him, she questioned back, “Why do you want to know?”

A smile crept on Kace’s lips.

“Why are you even here talking to me? Didn’t you come here to see someone?” She added.

Without waiting for him to reply, she continued to study. The library wasn’t completely quiet since the faint sounds made by some of the students could still be heard.

Allison tried to focus on what she was doing, but she couldn’t because she could feel Kace’s eyes on her. It made her feel uncomfortable.

“What?” She questioned, annoyed by the way he only stared at her without talking.

‘Did he suddenly go mute?’ She wondered.

“Am I disturbing you?” Kace asked her. “I don’t think I am since I’m not talking,” he added.

Allison huffed, completely regretting coming to the library.

‘Maybe I should have gone to the bathroom instead, that would keep him away,’ she thought.

But she was already at the library, if she stood up and left, there was a high chance Kace was going to follow her and she didn’t want that to happen. Eyes were already on her.

“Why are you here?” She questioned. “If you are here to ask me if I check the things that Ms. Selene uses, then I do. Both Natalie and I always double-check everything properly before she uses it—”

“That’s not why I’m here,” Kace interrupted her.

Allison frowned deeply. “Then why are you here?!” She asked, her voice a little higher than normal. She only wanted to have a quiet afternoon at the library without any disturbance, but it seemed that wish wasn’t going to be fulfilled at all.

Kace drew his seat closer to her, shortening their distance from five to two feet. Allison became alert.

“I came here to see someone but they aren’t around. So now that I’ve seen you, why don’t you keep me company?” He suggested a small smile on his lips. “I graduated from here two years ago. If you need any help with your project, I can help you with them. I can also be your friend if you want me to,” he added, which earned him a frown from Allison.

“No, thanks,” she immediately declined.

She wouldn’t want to be involved with someone like Kace, or with any man of the opposite gender at all. If her boyfriend found out about Kace, she would be a dead meat.

But what Allison didn’t know was that the person in front of her didn’t have a normal family background at all.
