No, she wasn't like this before, and she wasn't this petty.
What's gotten into her today?
"I told you I was joking. Do you think if I wanted you to marry me right away, you'd really go through with it?"
She said, a bit irritated—this was the first time her tone towards William Wilson showed a hint of dissatisfaction.
William was taken aback, wanting to say that if she was willing, he really could.
They could even go get the marriage certificate right away.
But seeing the obvious anger rising on her face, William was a bit frightened.
The words on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back.
Laura doesn't like him to joke like that.
This realization made his previously good mood noticeably dissipate.
In his deep eyes, there was also a hint of melancholy.
"Are you angry?"
He asked her cautiously, fearfully, and timidly.
In all his life, he only ever liked this one girl, he hadn't even coaxed his own sister, so he didn't know how to appease her without upsetting her.
