Chapter 230 "Yeah," Steven mumbled. Lately, his mind had been a mess. Everyone around him kept insisting that he had feelings for Jessica.

Since that was the case, he decided to accept their claims as truth.

"I will," he said firmly.

Even though he was trying to get along with Jessica, he still felt uneasy. It was stifling, like nothing was quite right.

Only then did Cody seem at ease.

When I arrived at the office, I barely had tto open my computer before Sasha barged in. She stormed up to my desk. "Do you remember the Joanna I told you about last time?" "Of course," I said. "She's the one who got those roses from the guy, Cheap Charlie, right?" "Exactly!" Sasha said, jumping in with an update. "Now Cheap Charlie wants Joanna to help him pay off the debt he owes his ex-girlfriend, but she's not having it." "Even though Joanna earns a decent salary, 200 thousand dollars is still a significant amount of money she saved through hard work," Sasha continued, rolling her eyes. "Does he really think he can just ask for it? Dream on!" "Unbelievable," I said, nodding in agreement.

Sasha scoffed in disgust. "When Joanna refused, he actually suggested they break up." I was dumbfounded. "Is he seriously that shameless?" "Oh, it gets even more ridiculous," Sasha said, visibly annoyed. "That bouquet of flowers? I told you-he first tried to give it to his ex-girlfriend, but she didn't want it. Then, he offered it to me, and I turned it down too. Finally, he gave it to Joanna, and she accepted." She continued, "Now, he's demanding that Joanna pay him back for the flowers! When she refused, he started spreading rumors, calling her a gold digger. In the end, she had no choice but to transfer him the money just to keep the peace." Sasha nearly rolled her eyes as she continued, "After he got the money, he actually ctoand said that since I'd seen the flowers, I should pay for them, too. I was so furious that I almost slapped him a few times. I just can't stand people like him!" Even I was left utterly astonished.

Sasha continued, "He couldn't get money from me, so he tried asking his ex-girlfriend for the cost of the flowers." I hesitated and asked, "Didn't she refuse?" "Of course, she refused!" Sasha answered without hesitation. "Why would she pay for something she didn't even accept? That would make her a fool!" I let out a relieved sigh.

After Sasha finished ranting, she flopped onto my lap.

I asked, "After how she treated you the other day, aren't you angry?" "It's a small thing," Sasha replied casually. "I didn't think much of it." Seeing she wasn't affected, I felt a bit lighter. I absentmindedly played with Sasha's hair.

Suddenly, Sasha fell silent, staring atwith something unsaid in her eyes.

I casually asked, "What's wrong?"

Sasha sighed in frustration. "A friend I've been close to for a while om suddenly confessed to me. I never imagined he liked me, so it completely caughtoff guard."

She continued, "I was considering whether or not to date him, but then, he found a woman who looks just likeand said he wanted her to replace me."

Sasha muttered softly, "My friends keep saying he's so devoted and tellingI should cherish him, but I m don't see it that way. He somehow disrespectedwith his actions, and they don't respect that girl, either. I just couldn't stand him anymore." Sasha voiced her confusion, "They say I'm ungrateful. What do you think?" I said seriously, "I think you're right. So, Sasha, don't doubt your judgment." "Exactly!" Sasha instantly relaxed. "I knew it!"
