Chapter 1307
Felicity hesitated for a while before she said, “All your friends bought you such expensive gifts, and Ijust couldn’t bring myself to give you what I had prepared. That was why I took Stella’s gift and gave itto you.”
Vermont scoffed. “So, you came to the party for a free meal without giving me anything, huh?”
Felicity replied softly, “You received so many gifts that day, and my one gift wouldn’t make a difference.Why are you so bothered by this?”
“Of course, it makes a difference. How can a gift from you be the same as the gifts from others?”
Vermont paused before continuing, “Why did you come to my birthday party that day? We haven’tknown each other at that time, right?”
“Because Doctor Steven wanted to go.” Felicity adjusted her dress as she spoke. “I wanted to get closeto Doctor Steven, so I told him you had invited me too. I didn’t expect you to come out of nowhere andkeep questioning me. I was afraid that you’d expose my lie, so I held onto you to hide my face fromyou.”
Vermont was speechless. It was supposed to be something to be happy about, but he felt bitter afterknowing that Felicity only attended his birthday party for another man.
Suddenly, Vermont remembered how panicked Felicity
looked when Corbin came knocking on the door the next morning. She seemed extremely afraid thatCorbin would know that she had spent the night with him.
That realization made Vermont feel very unpleasant.
“Do you really like Corbin this much?”
Vermont suddenly asked.
Felicity was taken aback. It took her a while to respond, “I used to, but not anymore, I guess. I alwaysfeel like Doctor Steven is a very difficult person to understand. He’s just… not as genuine as you.”
Vermont paused. “How am I genuine?”
“Well, I can see you and touch you. Although you can be very flirty and have many exes, you’reactually a good person.”novelbin
Vermont kept quiet.
‘Is that a compliment?’ he wondered to himself.
Vermont gestured to Felicity to come over. “Come here.”
Felicity was puzzled. “What?”
‘Til tell you once you come here.”
Felicity walked over reluctantly. “Can’t you just tell… ah…”
Vermont dragged her hand and pulled her onto his lap before she could finish her sentence.
Felicity’s heart raced as she immediately tried to stand up. However, Vermont wrapped his arm aroundher waist tightly, and she was unable to move at all.
“What are you doing?” Felicity glared at him as her ears turned red.
Vermont lifted her chin with another hand. “Look at me.”
Felicity was forced to lift her head up and look into his eyes. She felt very uncomfortable as shewidened her gaze to express annoyance. “Why should I?”
“Who looks better? Me or Corbin?”
Felicity was speechless.
“Don’t you have anything better to do? What kind of stupid question is this?”
She tried to break free as she spoke, but Vermont was surprisingly strong. She could not budge even abit despite her efforts.
“Answer me, and I’ll let you go.”
Vermont was unusually stubborn on this matter.
Felicity glowered at him frustratedly. Doctor Steven looks better, obviously. Are you not aware of whatyou look like yourself?”
Vermont’s gaze darkened as his grip on her waist tightened unconsciously. Then, he spoke in a lowvoice. ” Are you sure? N
Felicity could not find the words to speak as she looked into Vermont’s charming eyes.
The way that Vermont looked was very different from Keegan, who was considered the man of everywoman’s dream. His features were not as delicate as compared to Keegan’s. Also, his brows were notthreaded like the male actors, and his eyes were not as attractive as those of Marshall’s. However, hehad a tall nose bridge, a very defined jawline, and a beautiful pair of lips. The combination of thesethree made his appearance stand out among other guys.
