Chapter 915: You Are Really Impudent.
When had Cole ever been scolded like that before?
He might not be as highly respected as eldest brother and Lea, but he was still the Second Royal Highness in the Messengers tribe. Who would dare to be anything but reverent and deferential before him?
Even when his father was still alive, he had never berated him like that.
Sandy’s reprimand was a wondrous experience for him. He felt that he should be angry? But somehow, he couldn’t get his rage up.
Or perhaps…
His attention had been caught by an important piece of information?
“Ah Gu, were you very upset about that thing between me and Ellie? You are jealous?” Cole’s smile held traces of smugness. He tilted his head and directed his line of sight around Sandy to land on Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She had spun that lie just to humor Sandy, who was extremely confused and upset from being under Cole’s bewitching spell. But now, her lie had put her in a tight spot.
Giving a couple of dry laughs, Gu Mengmeng said, “Do whatever you have to do. Don’t bother about things that don’t matter.”
Cole touched his finger lightly to his chin. “But this is the first time I have ever been scolded in this manner. I must pursue the truth behind this right? If what she said is true, then I am happy to be scolded. But if what she said are lies… why should I save someone who is besmearing my name?”
Did he mean that he wouldn’t save Sandy if Gu Mengmeng didn’t admit she was very upset over that thing between him and Ellie?!
Gu Mengmeng was fuming on the inside, yet didn’t want to play into his scheming.
But she couldn’t not bother about Sandy… if she tried to break the hypnotism herself, Sandy would suffer physical harm.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t wish to risk Sandy’s safety. Hence, Gu Mengmeng decided to say something that went against her own conscience.
Glaring at Cole, she tried her best to believe that he was Lea.
Just as she was about to speak, one bear claw clamped down on Cole’s shoulder.
Cole was pushed back a couple steps and he shot a malevolent glare at Sandy. He flashed his claws and fangs, and looked ready to attack Sandy at any moment.
Bode and Collin had been focusing on Sandy and was naturally well aware of her actions. They had no time to tell her not to make any sudden moves, and could only make the most fundamental protective actions to cover her.
Bode pulled Sandy into his embrace before turning his back on Cole.
Collin then placed himself in front of Bode and used own arms to defend against Cole.
Collin had already been promoted to a third-level beast after becoming Sandy’s partner. He was considered quite powerful in the Beast World and could usually easily defend his female.
But most situations didn’t usually involve a fifth-level beast.
Even though Cole was handicapped, he had been a fifth-level beast for so long. Further, he had undergone Sauder’s training system, and had numerous under-dealings and scuffles with stray beasts. His powers… if they were to fight for real, he would at least be comparable to Elvis.
How could a third-level Collin hold him back?
With one smack, Collin’s forearms folded at a peculiar angle, obviously broken.
Gu Mengmeng was startled by the sudden change in the situation. She rushed to stand before Cole, while Elvis inserted himself right in front of her half a second later. In this manner, Elvis was nearly nose-to-nose with Cole.
With a grim face, Gu Mengmeng stated coldly. “Cole, you are really impudent.”
