Christopher looked at him. “What’s the bet?”
Picking up the cup and taking a sip of coffee, Raymond said with a meaningful smile. “Let’s bet whether Larry can sleep with Ms. Livingstone.”
In an instant, Raymond felt that the air pressure around him was much lower, and there was a gloomy chill.
Raymond then forced a smile on his face, cleared his throat, and asked, “What’s wrong? They’re both single. It’s not illegal for adults to sleep together.”
Hearing that, Christopher suddenly smiled lightly.
Raymond’s heart tightened when he saw the smile on Christopher’s face. Tapping the table twice, Christopher asked, “How about we change the bet?” Hearing that, Raymond could not help swallowing twice. “What’s the bet?”
“Let’s bet on whether your leg will break if I throw you from here,” said Christopher.
There was a brief silence between them.
Raymond felt cold in his feet, and his legs were a little weak. He smiled awkwardly. “I think we’d better stop betting Let’s drink coffee.”
Withdrawing his gaze coldly, Christopher picked up his phone and played for a while, but his brows furrowed increasingly deeper. After a while, he suddenly stood up and strode toward the stairs.
Raymond hurriedly took a sip of coffee and followed up. “Where are you going?”
Christopher stopped, pointed at Raymond with his phone, and warned, “Don’t follow me.”
“Chris.” Before Raymond could say anything, he was held back by Christopher. He could only watch Christopher walk away.
He then shook his head and said, “He’s reluctant to admit it.”
On the way back to the homestay, Larry kept looking for topics to talk about with Yuliana. Yuliana was polite and occasionally replied with one or two sentences, but most of the time she was silent.
Larry was not stupid. He could see that Yuliana’s attitude had changed.
But he did not give up.
When he was in high school, all the male students around him liked to make lewd jokes about Annabelle. But he had no sexual interest in a woman like Annabelle. In his heart, Annabelle was no different from a whore. He felt dirty even mentioning her name.
But because of Christopher and the others, he still called Annabelle intimately.
At that time, Yuliana was actually his fantasy.
In high school, Yuliana had dark hair, which was always tied into a bunch of low ponytails. Her blue and white school uniform was always clean with a light creamy scent. In summer, she was used to buckling the buttons of her collar. In winter, her school uniform was zipped to the end. Her skin was extremely fair and soft, as if it could be broken with a little force.
He had fantasized countless times about leaving marks on her fair and soft skin.
But at that time, even if he thought about it, he did not dare to blaspheme Yuliana at all. In his heart, Yuliana was like a fairy, flawless and holy
However, what he did not expect was that Yuliana would choose to marry Harry, who was an illegitimate child.
On the day when Yuliana and Harry got married, he was drunk. He imagined over and over how Yuliana was defiled by Harry. It was weird that he was released from his fantasy.
He always knew that Yuliana and Xandria had a good relationship. So when he learned that Xandria and he were at the same university, he tried every means to become friends with Xandria. He joined Yuliana’s circle of friends just to get close to her.
But who would have thought that even if he became Xandria’s friend, he might not become friends with
Yuliana.
For Yuliana, Larry was just a friend of Xandria.
Because of Xandria, Larry and Yuliana had countless encounters, but Yuliana could not even remember his
name.
Unknowingly, they had returned to the homestay. In about ten minutes, the sky had darkened a lot, and the lights in the yard had been turned on.
Yuliana had already arrived at the door of her and Xandria’s room. Seeing that Larry was still around, she stopped and said, “Go back to Xani and Kathryn. I’m okay to stay in the homestay alone.”
“Yuliana…” Larry looked at her and hesitated to speak.
Yuliana only looked at his face for a while, then turned around and was about to enter the room.
Seeing that, Larry grabbed her wrist and shouted anxiously, “Yuliana!”
Yuliana looked at the wrist that he was holding and frowned.
However, Larry did not let go of her. He looked at her face enthusiastically and said, “Yuliana, I like you.”
Yuliana was not ignorant. In fact, when she had dinner with Xandria before school started and Xandria’s mother was admitted to the hospital, and Xandria asked Larry to send her back. She already felt something at that moment.
It was not embarrassing to like someone. Yuliana did not reject him if they could get along well. She might be willing to try to be together with Larry.
But what made her uncomfortable was his attitude toward Annabelle that time.
When eating in the restaurant, Larry addressed Annabelle earnestly. But when he was behind Annabelle’s back, he spoke of her contemptuously in front of Yuliana.
Yuliana did not know whether Larry was deliberately ingratiated to her or if he was such a duplicitous person. Either of those options made her feel very uncomfortable.
Yuliana asked, “Can you let me go first?”
Larry looked at Yuliana with his hands tightened. After hesitating for a moment, he let go of her hand and said earnestly, “Yuliana, I really like you. I’ve liked you since high school.”
Yuliana responded lightly, “Thank you for your love, but I don’t plan to start another relationship at present.” That was not a lie. Now that she was pregnant with a child, for a long time in the future, her focus would be on the child, and she could not make room for a new relationship at all.
Looking at Larry’s sincere look, she suddenly wondered, “Will he still look at me like this if he knew that I’m pregnant with a child whose father is unknown?” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Hearing that, Larry felt that Yuliana was just making excuses just to be rid of him.
Larry mused, “She is a woman of loose morals who was abandoned by Harry. Did she think she’s still a pure fairy, just like she was in high school?”
Thinking of that, Larry could not hold back his anger and asked coldly, “How about Christopher?”
Yuliana was not surprised that he suddenly changed his expression. “That is my business. I don’t need to explain anything to you.”
Larry sneered. “Yuliana, I always thought you were different from other women. In fact, you’re the same as them, right?”
They were the same kind of bitch.
Yuliana looked at him indifferently. She did not care what Larry thought of her. She did not want to argue with him, so she turned around to open the door and was about to enter the room.
But at that moment, a pair of arms came up from behind, shackled her waist with one hand, and covered her mouth with the other.
