The Story Of Bunny And Fox

Vol 2 - Pause (4)

The party Nick mentioned takes place in the mansion owned by the Frost family in Mayfair. It starts at 6:30 with dinner, followed by entertainment activities. Kyle explained that it was actually not much different from a normal social party.

Still, the reason Nick calls this an engagement party seems to be because they are meeting with the other side's family to make arrangements.

Nick heard from Kyle that his father Jonathan Frost had delayed the process because this needed careful consideration.

"You don't seem surprised."

Looking at Ash's reaction while entering the mansion, Nick says. Kyle said he'd go in first and look for Karlyle. Before leaving, Kyle took turns looking at Nick and Ash, stared at Ash coldly, then told Nick to call him if anything happened.

Walking and looking ahead with a face like usual, Ash turns his head at Nick's voice. Nick nods and points into the mansion.

"When I first came here, I was very surprised. Maybe because I was young at that time, but now even when I have gotten older, I still feel the same."

As Nick says, the mansion is huge. Possessing a mansion of this size in the heart of Mayfair is no joke, the surname Frost is definitely in a different world from normal people. Laughing like a habit, Ash says calmly.

"It looks great."

But for Ash, this sight is not so surprising. Since his mother's hometown in France is similar. Although he is not a noble or wealthy man, Ash has seen and experienced a lot from a young age thanks to his grandparents. It was also his grandparents, not his father, who supported his studies.

Hearing his unsurprising tone, Nicks says in admiration.

"Looks like I'm the only one surprised."

"Nick hasn't changed at all."

Ash laughs softly at Nick's moderate joke. He thinks that's what he quite likes about Nick. A person who likes to exchange, says things he wants without hesitation, and is very interesting when meeting.

Not only Nick, all the people he has met are extroverts. A friendly person with a lively smile, a straightforward and outspokenly daring personality, or an unpredictable behavior that jumps out of nowhere.

Mostly it is. Ash is also very good at getting along with them, and that creates stimulation and fun in the process.

But Karlyle is an exception from the start to the end. He has never seen anyone so quiet and unreadable, and he didn't even think of meeting them. His time with Karlyle is always quiet.

But if you think about it, Karlyle has always been right with Ash. When being led by Ash, Karlyle would sway, but he did not show any dislike.

Normally, Ash is the one matching the opponent, so he thought he was trying to get along a lot while continuing the relationship, but actually, Karlyle was also following Ash's way.

Although Ash thought that the other person was cuter, more lovable and prettier than expected, at first, Ash implicitly harbored initial prejudice against Karlyle.

Maybe because of his appearance when saying the "no necessary feelings" thing with an expressionless face, or the first meeting where he ignored Ash to the point of being arrogant, they still remained in Ash's mind. His firm and cold attitude when saying Nick and Ash had nothing to do with each other may also have played a part.

Other than that, there were many reasons. The background of being an aristocrat also solidified the prejudice. He could not have assumed that a person from such a class, which is hard to find in reality, would want to be truly entangled with him.
