Apparently, the two of them were quite close.
Were they maybe… a former couple? Rafayel wondered while grinning to himself at the thought.
"Hey! Rafayel, you alright?" Fabius called out in concern.
"Yes, I'm totally fine. More importantly, Mr. Khazan, thank you so much. You really saved us."
"Nah, don't worry about it. This was easy for me. Still, if I'd known such a cute boy was asking, I would've said yes from the start," Bay said, looking a little shy now.
Rafayel let out an awkward chuckle—"Haha…"
Fabius then leaned in and whispered, "That guy's a hopeless sucker for someone with cute faces. That's why I figured it'd be okay to introduce him to you… but I was worried he might ask for more than just the job."
Ah… so that's why he looked so hesitant earlier, Rafayel thought, finally understanding.
"Hey, you. Your name's Rafayel, right? You're so adorable. Come a little closer," Khazan said, grinning.
