A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 65

When Thomas looked up after tending to Ana's injury, Demi had already left. He looked at the bustling crowds and suddenly realized this was the perfect chance to meet Demi in private.

Without informing Matt, Thomas quickly went inside the manor. The cameraman was about to follow him, but he waved his hands and made a silent motion.

But this didn't escape the netizens' keen eyes.

"Thomas went into the manor after looking toward Demi's direction. Is he going after her?"

"He must be!"

"Does that mean Thomas is pursuing Demi?"

"We'll find out soon."

The netizens were looking forward to what was going to happen.

But then, Thomas turned off his microphone.

"No, please! I thought Thomas would forget to turn off his microphone like Demi and Maria did!"

"Damn it! Thomas is so sneaky!"

"Heh, I bet he's hiding something! Compared to him, Demi and Maria are more open and honest."

"Tommy just doesn't want anyone to interfere with his private life. What is wrong with that? If anything, Demi is definitely trying to ride on Tommy's coattail for publicity. Which was why she purposefully didn't turn off her microphone and spouted those ambiguous words!"

"Hey, don't worry. We're still in the beginning. There are still many more episodes for us to discover the truth!"

"I'm so looking forward to the reveal!"

"Same!"

The netizens were anticipating the reveal.

…

Thomas knocked on Demi's door on the third floor.

"Demi? Are you there? Could you open the door for a minute?" Thomas asked.

"Go away!" Demi shouted in annoyance.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you, Ms. Dane." Thomas glanced at Demi's door regretfully before leaving.

After watching Thomas off with a cold glare, Maria snorted before closing the door.

…

The next day, Demi was already practicing her martial arts in the garden before sunrise.

The manor was located in the middle of the mountain. It was the perfect place to train, considering the fresh air she got.

"Good morning, Demi. I didn't know you practice martial arts." A surprised voice came behind Demi.

Demi had already heard someone's steps approaching. But since she was just practicing simple martial arts moves, she didn't stop since it wasn't any earth-shattering moves.

Demi turned to the voice and saw George, who was wearing all-black sports attire. She smiled while continuing her practice. "Yeah, I did."

"You're really talented!" George gave Demi a thumbs up. "No wonder you're so strong! Oh, since I've also learned a little martial arts, how about we spar for a bit? I'll give you a ten-move head start."

George's eyes were sparkling as he was excited to spar with Demi.
