“Ha,” she couldn't accept the situation.
If a scholar named Ray didn't exist in the Scholar's Tower, then who exactly was the man who went in and out of the library and pretended to be from the Scholar's Tower?
“What exactly is this…….”
To be honest, Ray was most definitely suspicious. He was incredibly different from the other scholars who stayed in one corner to research continuously. Though it was a different story if he were a n.o.ble.
However, if he was a n.o.ble, there would have been no reason for him to masquerade as a scholar just to borrow books at the library. What reason could there exist for someone to hide their ident.i.ty as a n.o.ble?
Fraud!
Oh my. She held interest for a man that was actually a fraud who hid his ident.i.ty!
Then all those conversations up till now and all those sides of him he'd shown me were all a mere act?
Not only had her heart been cajoled with by a man whose ident.i.ty she didn't know, and her notebook, that was equal to the weight of her life, had been stolen away by him? Vivian's blood pressure rose up to the very tip of her head and she felt as though she would drop dead at any moment.
He's not coming…….
Not even a glimpse of Ray, who would usually visit every single day, could be seen today.
Vivian was awake all night and continued to wait for Ray. After she had finished her work, she leaned against the wall and looked down at her watch every five minutes impulsively.
Even though it was way past when he should have arrived, she couldn't find even a single hair of him in sight. She felt as though she had become a dog who awaited its owner.
As she waited around for the promised meeting, she received the suspicious glares of the day librarians as the time to switch s.h.i.+fts approached.
“What are you doing, Vivian? Not leaving yet?”
Everyone looked at her as though she was ill. Of course. After all, which employee would remain at their workplace past their s.h.i.+ft? It was a rather strange incident.
