Chapter 1521
Vermont’s expression turned serious, as he held Felicity’s face and examined her closely. He stared ather so closely that it made her feel uneasy.
She swatted his hand away and glared at him. “What are you doing?”novelbin
Vermont replied after a long pause, seemingly in disbelief. “How were you a girl?”
Felicity’s face darkened. “What nonsense are you talking about? We’ve been dating for so long, andonly now you realize that I’m a girl?”
“No…” Vermont was usually very quick-witted, but he seemed to be at a loss for words at that moment.He did not know how he could explain his thoughts to her. After a while, he said, “Can’t you tell? I’m theboy you were talking about.”
Felicity’s lips twitched. “What is wrong with you? Are you possessed? You don’t have to go so far evenif you want to compete with him.”
Vermont ignored her question and called out, “Buffy?”
Felicity paused before she turned around slowly and asked, “What did you call me?”
Vermont’s gaze was intense. “Is that your childhood nickname? Buffy?”
Felicity became angry, and she reached out to choke him. “How did you know about that? Did you goto Stella and ask about my secrets? Speak!”
Buffy was a nickname given by her grandmother. When her parents were still together, her mother wasvery busy earning a living, so Felicity used to spend a lot of time with her grandmother.
Felicity’s grandmother had many children, and plenty of grandchildren. She was not exactly hergrandmother’s favorite, but her grandmother would always call her Buffy as if she were a boy. She washoping that Florence would have a son someday.
Florence did not like it, but her grandmother insisted on calling her that regardless of whether there wasan outsider around or not.
Felicity was just a kid, and she thought that Buffy was her real name because of how often hergrandmother called her that. So, before her parents split up, the people in her father’s hometown wouldcall her Buffy. It was only after her parents divorced and Florence moved out with her that peoplestopped calling her that.
It was safe to say that other than the people living in her father’s hometown, her family, and Stella, noone else knew about this childhood nickname of hers.
Vermont forcefully removed her hands from his neck before pinching her chin and forcing her to facehim. “You wanted to learn how to climb a tree and insisted that I teach you. After I did, you went toshow it off in front of your friends. However, you couldn’t come down after climbing up. Your friendsasked why you stayed up there, but you were too proud to tell them the truth. You even told them thatthe view up there was too beautiful. You only started crying and told me that you couldn’t come downwhen I saw you after coming back from school.
“That tree was about six feet tall. I told you to jump, and I’d catch you. But you refused because youdidn’t want me to get hurt. I told you that I was much bigger than you, and there was no way you couldhurt me. So, you jumped and landed right on top of me. You were small but surprisingly heavy.”
Vermont chuckled as he spoke. He pinched her chubby cheeks and continued softly, “I wonder whattook me so long to recognize you.”
Felicity was shocked.
She was in a daze and could not figure out how her childhood sweetheart would have anything to dowith Vermont.
It was terrifying. Her childhood sweetheart had such an innocent face, and she could not believe thathe and her current flirtatious boyfriend were the same person.
Felicity shook her head. “It can’t be you. I was only six or seven years old back then, so I couldn’t reallyremember what happened. You were already a teenager, so you should’ve remembered, right? Whywould you only remember everything after I told you everything?”
