Chapter 250 Thinking back to when Jimmy falsely accused me, I saw my chance for a little payback. "Let go of my hand, or I'll start shouting for help!" Jimmy laughed. "Go ahead, make my day." He wasn't scared at all.
Speople are just totally shameless. I tried to pull my hand away, not wanting to waste my targuing with him.
But he didn't let go. Instead, he flasheda grin, "Felicia, long tno see. You seem to be getting more and more... beautiful." "Get lost!" I tried to pull my hand back again.
Still, he wouldn't let go. Instead, he followed my movement, getting closer. "Seems like your temper's grown too." Speople have no shame, and Jimmy was proving to be one of them.
"Jimmy, what are you doing? It's getting late, and we've got places to be," someone called out to him from a distance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had rushed over here for something, clearly.
But now, Jimmy seemed in no hurry, even ignoring the call. He kept a firm grip on my hand. "Felicia, I heard you're single now. Can I chase you?" That felt like a punch to the gut.
Me, single? Whose fault was that? His sister's! His sister snagged my fiancé, and now he wanted to chase me? Bold move.
But if they're going to playlike that, I needed to hit back. So, I responded with a cold smile, "Sure, why not ask your sister if she's cool with it. If she gives the green light, go ahead." "Did you just say yes?" Jimmy's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.
Panic surged through me. This kid couldn't be serious, right? I was already seeing someone else, Ernest, and the last thing I wanted was to get tangled up with another guy. Facing Jimmy's hopeful gaze, I lifted my foot and stepped on his toes.
Accompanied by a yelp of pain, he finally let go, hopping around in agony.
Still unsatisfied, I shot him another glare before walking away.
"Felicia, I'll keep chasing you. I love that fiery spirit," Jimmy yelled out not even the pain could shut him up, as he made a scene in the lobby of the hospital.
I quickened my pace, leaving that madman behind.
Once in the car, I took a moment to calm down from the Jimmy-induced rage before heading off to the office.
But before I could get there, my phone rang. It was a call from Alex.
Instantly, I remembered the message he sent last night. Was he about to meet his dad now? With that thought, I answered, lowering my voice a bit, "Mr. Clark, calling so early." "Did I wake you?" Alex's tone was teasing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is there something you need, Mr. Clark?" I pretended not to have seen his message from the night before. Alex laughed softly, "I'm on my way to my dad's place. I promised Ms. Thompson a visit, and I intend to keep that promise. You still up for it? How could I say no? "Sure, where should I meet you, Mr. Clark?" "I'll cpick you up, Ms. Thompson," Alex replied, not following the expected script.
Of course, immediately declined, "Oh, there's no need to trouble 1 yourself, Mr. Clark. Just givethe address; I'll head over." Alex laughed again, gentler this time, "Is Ms. Thompson keeping her guard up?"
I kept silent, knowing sometimes silence speaks louder than words in avoiding awkwardness.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, Alex gavethe address to the e Evergreen Wellness Retreat.
I was familiar with the place, having been there but never actually going never in."Alright, I be there in half an En hour." Alex chuckled, "Seems Ms. Thompson knows her way around the retreat." I paused, then mentally facepalmed for accidentally letting that slip.
But I didn't explain.
Ashburn Neither did he push further, simply ending with, "Ms. Thompson, see you there!"
