The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power novel Chapter 428

The corner of Kingsley's mouth twitched. "That's because I've been calling you by that name since childhood. Besides, Miss Albright is a few months older than me. So, it doesn't feel appropriate to call her by a pet name…"

Elaine understood Courtney well, so she knew that Courtney was just teasing Kingsley. Thus, she covered her mouth and laughed coquettishly before finally saying to him, "Okay, that's enough. I'll just take the loss. You can call me 'Elaine', Kingsley."

"What! Elaine, are you thinking about becoming my sister-in-law?"

"That's so annoying! Court, what nonsense are you spewing? I won't be your friend anymore!"

"Hahaha…"

The three of them joked around for a while. Afterward, Courtney invited Kingsley to dinner so that they could spend more time together. "Kingsley, do you want to join us for dinner tonight?"

"No." Kingsley shook his head. "I want to go back and start reading Professor Albright's book."

She raised an eyebrow at him. "Why are you suddenly showing interest in Professor Albright's research on information and intelligence?"

"I… I'm just curious." He grinned and lied, "It's just curiosity!"

"Is that so?" She stared at him intently with her almond-shaped eyes. "Don't tell me… Do you have a different purpose for coming to Solaris University and looking for Professor Albright?"
