"So, are you the Mesdame's boyfriend?"
"That…"
"Margaux!"
Before Adam could even attempt to answer that question, Sylvie once again raised her voice. And this time, Margaux giggled and stepped back.
"Oh, mon Dieu, relax," she said before winking at Adam, "Eh, everyone thinks you are 'er boyfriend now! You make lots'a people jealous."
Xavier chuckled. "So zis is ze famous American, non? Ze one who 'as our Sylvie acting like a schoolgirl?"
"I do not act like—" Sylvie couldn't even defend herself before Hugo also joined in on the conversation.
"'E looks too young, non?" Hugo squinted at Adam. "What are you, boy? Sixteen? Seventeen?"
"Twenty-seven," Adam said quietly. He scanned each of the Heroes in front of him, and then at Sylvie. Adam initially thought that Sylvie would be a little distant from the other guild members because of her status as France's only S-tier Hero.
