Chapter 262 The atmosphere was thick with tension.

"Rad, I get it, your mom doesn't like me. There's nothing I can do to change her mind, and I'm sorry you're stuck in this mess with me," Haley said, finally seeing the situation for what it was.

But her apology sounded too submissive, too defeated.

What had she done wrong, really? If anything, her only fault was loving someone too much, enduring all this just for the sake of that person.

"It's fine if I'm suffering; I brought this upon myself. But you shouldn't have to deal with this pain," Conrad snapped, his mood more volatile than usual.

"Rad, I don't understand what you mean," Haley said, her voice even softer and more fragile in front of Conrad.

Was this her true nature, or was she just putting on an act to gain sympathy? "What's the deal with Jimmy?" Conrad brought up a nthat instantly puton edge.

"What about him? What trouble has he caused now? What mess has he dragged you into this time?" Haley's voice carried a hint of anxiety. Conrad snorted, "You really don't know?" "Rad, I honestly have no idea what you're talking about," Haley sounded genuinely flustered.

"Jimmy's chasing after Felicia," Conrad revealed, and I could feel Ernest's arm aroundtighten its grip.

I looked at Ernest, and he returned my gaze, his brow furrowed in concern.

Before I could offer an explanation, Haley responded to Conrad, "That's impossible." "He sent flowers to Felicia's office," Conrad said with a scoff.

Haley paused for a few seconds before replying, "He must be joking around, just teasing her. After all, Felicia harassed him before." I was shocked had resolved that misunderstanding a long tago, even getting the police and security footage involved to prove that Jimmy's claims were unfounded. Yet, here was Haley, still slandering me.

"Haley, you think I'm unaware of that incident?" Conrad's anger was palpable.

"Rad, let's not bring up the past. I swear I had no idea about Jimmy pursuing Felicia. I'll call him and tell him to stop this nonsense," Haley promised.

Conrad remained silent, and Haley added, "Rad, think about it. It doesn't make sense forto encourage him to chase Felicia. If Felicia actually said yes, out of spite, it would backfire on me, right?" She did have a point there.

"But how did he know Felicia loves white roses? Not many people know that," Conrad wasn't so easily fooled.

"I don't know either. And I didn't know Felicia liked white roses. I've only seen you give her white roses," Haley explained.

Conrad didn't reply, which lefteven more baffled about how Jimmy knew I preferred white roses. Could Jimmy have investigated me?

Just as this thought crossed my mind, Grant chimed in din "How long are you two planning to hug? If you don't E let go soon, dinner will get cold." His reminder maderealize I was still in Ernest's arms. My face flushed with embarrassment, and I hastily stepped back.

"I should head back now," I said, making a move to leave but not before noticing Ernest still had a hold on me.

As I turned around, I met Conrad and Haley's gaze. Their expressions were a mix of disbelief and shock.

I ignored their stares and told Ernest, "You guys go ahead and eat. I need to head back" "Alright, we'll eat and then I'll walk you back," Ernest replied, his eyes soft with affection. I nodded and parted ways with him, heading towards the room Jacqueline had booked.
