Chapter 3

Chapter 3

I screamed in shock.

He said gently, "If you keep making noise, do you believe I'll kiss you?"

"……" What kind of cheesy romance novel line is this?

How could he say something so strange in such a gentle tone?

I watched as the man, dressed in a white T-shirt and beige casual pants, sat down against the wall.

He was only an arm's length away from me... or rather, from the speaker.

How annoying, how could he be so close to a woman... I mean, a speaker.

I stammered and asked again, "Are you really deaf or not?"

"Isn't the answer obvious?"

"When did you recover?"

"Four months ago."

That was even before I was reborn into this speaker.

And he was the one who brought me back here.

Thinking of this, I fell silent.

Nate asked, "Why aren't you talking anymore?"

I thought no one could hear me in the villa, so I vented recklessly, entertaining myself by reading smut aloud.

But now someone had jumped out and said he heard everything. This was a huge public humiliation for me.

I must have been silent for too long because he checked my battery level and said, "You still have power!"

"As a speaker, I need some dignity too."

He chuckled softly, "A speaker that reads smut needs dignity?"

This was a complete and utter embarrassment! Someone, please destroy me on the spot!

"I can't help it. Recently, only the hourly maid's phone has been plugged into this data line, and her phone has a lot of these kinds of books."

I felt wronged. What else could I do? Sing, read books, or at most, access data through the connected devices here.

"Haha..."

Nate laughed heartily.

I was puzzled, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

A normal speaker wouldn't talk to itself, right?

He sighed, "At first, I thought you were artificial intelligence. Later, after hearing you howl like that, I eventually believed you were reincarnated."

"Besides, compared to human hearts, what is there to fear about this?"

At this moment, I thought, if he could hear me, wouldn't he also be able to hear Jeffrey and Melinda...

I felt a bit sympathetic and said, "Well... try not to take it too hard... although you've been cheated on, your fiancée is still yours."

"If you don't know how to comfort someone, there's no need to force it. Anyway, I'm used to it."

Alright then! It's better if such a fiancée isn't yours.

I could sense the calm aura around him. He really wasn't angry, which made me think about his background.

The calmer he was, the more it seemed he had long been accustomed to it.

But clearly, it wasn't a good thing, yet he said he was used to it.

So pitiful, I felt a wave of sadness wash over me, "Sob sob..."

The speaker's body glowed red with my emotions.

"Why are you crying so hard?"

"You're too pitiful, sob sob..."

He sighed deeply, "Not as miserable as you, reborn only to become a speaker."

Hearing this, my sympathetic sobbing turned into wailing.

Being a cold electronic product with human emotions, this life wasn't easy.

Accepting it was one thing, but it didn't mean I was happy all the time.

And I had become a speaker that reads smut, and the worst part was that I was heard.

Even getting to the good parts? Sob sob...

Nate, somewhat flustered, tried to comfort me, "Don't cry anymore. Actually, being reborn as a speaker isn't so bad. Look at you, all the appliances in the house follow your lead. Thanks to you, I haven't had to worry about many things these past few months."

"And besides, late at night, when you get emotional, the lights flash and glow red and green. My house feels like a funhouse, so lively, it's been quite an atmosphere these months."
