She almost slammed her hands on the table when she heard him laughing. She went out to meet her friends but when she arrived at the restaurant, she saw him having lunch with someone else. She tried to keep her composure but it seemed like she would fail to do so. She excused herself and went to the powder room. She took her phone from her purse and dialed a number.

"Can you help me? I need to get out of here." She said once the call connected. She didn't really want to do this, feeling guilty that she would leave her friends after planning for this lunch last week but it looked like she had no choice.

"Just think of some reasons to drag me away from this place." She added after telling where the restaurant is located.

When she went back to the table, her friend finally arrived and she clung on his arm. She grabbed her bag and apologized to her friends that she needed to go already. In order to make it up with them, she invited them to have lunch at her place. They were about to leave the restaurant already when she felt a hand stopping her. She turned to look and she didn't expect that it was him.

"What are you doing?" She asked as she shoved his hand away from her arm. He grabbed her arm again and her guy friend gently pulled her away from him.

"I'm taking you away." He said and her eyes widened when he pushed her guy friend and dragged her away from the place. She struggled from his grip until she slapped his face hard.

"Did you understand what I've said to you before? If you can't fight for me, stop approaching me. How many times should I tell you that? Don't be disrespectful to your date. It will make me look like I'm snatching you away from her." She kept her voice and composure firm but her eyes widened when he pushed her up against the wall and started kissing her.

She shouted at him while trying to push him away but she whimpered when he accidentally tightened his grip around her wrist. He slowly let her go and he received another slap from her. She held on her wrist lightly to ease the pain and he realized that he had hurt her. She bit her lips hard and started crying silently. He tried to reach for her but she pushed him away again.

"I hate you. I hate you, Kawamura Kazuma." She whispered as she walked away from him. He stared at the walls and suddenly, he punched it hard, making his knuckles bleed.

"Pathetic. You're so pathetic, Kazuma. You're such an asshole. Hurting her and making her hate you." He whispered to himself and he punched the wall a few times more.

"Kazuma-kun!" The heiress of the Ishikawa Corporations rushed to his side. She found his knuckles bleeding, so she urged him to go to the nearest hospital.

"When you arrive home and when my parents ask you about me, can you do me a favor? Please tell them that I'm not your type. Please. Just please." He said in a low voice and he knelt in front of her to beg.

"Kazuma-kun, get up. Please. I'll help you. Just don't do this. I know. I know you're into Lauren. Do the right thing for me instead. Apologize to her." She said since she witnessed what happened between them earlier.

"Thank you.. Thank you so much." He hugged her tight, feeling relieved that he was able to resolve his problem with her. He couldn't reject his parents' decision about dating someone, so all he could do is to ask them to tell his parents and their families that he is not their type of man.

"For now, let's go to the hospital. Let's tend your wounds first." She said and he nodded his head many times. She quickly went to the driver's seat and rushed him to the nearest hospital.

"You know Riku, right?" She suddenly asked and he looked at her. If he is not mistaken, they are thinking about the same Riku.

"Aoyama Riku? Yes. Why?" He asked this time and she smiled faintly while driving. He raised a brow and she bit her lips gently.

"I like him." She whispered, feeling her cheeks heating up. He couldn't believe what he just heard from her. The heiress of Ishikawa Corporations likes the Second Prince of Royal High?

"How? I mean, why? All I know is you're attending an all-girls school. Did you meet him somewhere?" He asked again and she nodded. They arrived at the hospital and went to the emergency room for immediate medical attention.

"Yes. I met him a few months ago. We attended the same party and were able to talk to him for a couple of minutes. He had the brightest smile among them." She confessed and until now, he is trying to process everything she had said.

I heard he was hospitalized. Is he fine now?" There was a hint of worry in her tone and he nodded. He doesn't know if he will tell the Second Prince about this soon or what.

"In exchange for accepting your favor, can you help me to spend some time with him? Like if you and your friends including him will have a small dinner, can you invite me?" She asked and he thought about it for a while. The Second Prince is currently not interested in anyone, so he accepted her favor.

"Ah, I heard from the Student Council members that our friend's advocacy has been accepted and after that, it will be implemented throughout the year in Royal High. I'm sure there will be events for it, so I will invite you." He said and she smiled widely. She gave him a hug as she was so happy about it. Her cheeks went crimson while thinking on how she will prepare for it.
