It was not until he met Corinne had Jason experienced what it was like to fall head over heels for someone.
Unfortunately, this experience went hand-in-hand with heartbreak.
Lucas clenched his fists to keep himself from rushing over to punch Jeremy. Taking the adage ‘out of sight, out of
mind’ to heart, he decided to leave the place.
However, the moment he turned, he saw something he never expected to see on Jason’s face—the look of
lovelornness.
Being smart, he knew what was happening. Frowning, he waved his hand in front of Jason. “Hey, stop looking! She’ll
never be yours.”
That snapped Jason out of his trance. A little embarrassed that Lucas caught him, he shrugged and said, “Way to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrub salt into the wound, Lucas. Who’s to say Corinne won’t divorce Jeremy one day? That’ll be my chance then.”
Lucas was a little taken aback. He stared at Jason with a frown. “Are you being serious right now?”
Jason smiled. “Do I look like I’m joking? When have you ever seen me losing all common sense for a woman?”
Lucas’ eyes darkened. “Well, you better not do anything stupid. In any case, you and Jeremy are friends after all, so
it’s not right for you to pester his wife.”
“Why should I care about what they think since they don’t like me anyway?” he asked nonchalantly.
“Well, they wouldn’t have disliked you if you hadn’t tried to steal both Zeke’s and Gerald’s girlfriends from them in
the past!” said Lucas angrily. “In fact, they’re kind enough to still see you as a friend. If it were me, I would’ve killed
you already!”
“Dude! How can you say that? As I’ve told you a thousand times, I did not steal Zeke’s and Gerald’s girlfriend away
from them! Their girlfriends were the ones who kept pestering me, saying Zeke and Gerald weren’t treating them
right. I was only trying to comfort them when Zeke and Gerald happened to walk in. Don’t tell me you don’t believe
me either?!”
Lucas rolled his eyes at him. “I would have if they didn’t happen to walk in on their girlfriends naked.”
Jason smiled. “Would you believe me if I told you they were the ones who took their clothes didn’t tell them? Plus, I
didn’t so much as touch them in the end! You have to believe me, dude.”
Lucas turned around with the help of his crutches. “Don’t call me ‘dude’. With a friend like you, who needs an
enemy?”
Jason followed after him with a mischievous grin. “It’s not like you have anything to worry about, Lucas. I mean,
you’re single after all. But you really should think about getting yourself a wife since you’re not getting any younger.
Aren’t you just a little bit ashamed your sister is already married while you’re still a bachelor?”
Lucas stopped walking and used his crutches to hit Jason. “Buzz off, and mind your own business! Being a bachelor
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmis better than leaving a trail of broken hearts like you did! And let me warn you, I’ll never let Corinne be together
with you, even if one day she happens to be single again!”
Jason managed to dodge Lucas’ attack. “Why not?” he asked with a mischievous grin. “After all, I’m gentler and
funnier than Jeremy. I’m sure Corinne will be happier with me than she is with him.”
Lucas scoffed. “Oh, please. How can she be happy when she’ll need to deal with all the women who are gonna
come knocking on your door?”
“Why you!”
…
That night, at Twilight.
Aaron’s face fell when he saw Corinne had come with Jeremy.
“I see that you’re back, Mister Jeremy,” greeted Aaron with a superficial smile.
“Yeah. What business do you have with my wife?” replied Jeremy.
