Chapter 16: Both Of You Made The First Move
Before Linda could ask Michelle about it, the latter let go of her hand and slowly approached the two men.Linda looked down at her palm and saw the sweat that Michelle had left behind.
There was no doubt that her friend was very nervous.She watched with bated breath as Michelle stopped in front of Cecil and his friend.
Michelle wanted to look as confident as possible, so she raised her chin slightly and said in a clear voice.
"Hello, my name is Michelle Meng.I'm a postgraduate student from Los University.I've liked you for a long time."
Even from a distance, Linda could hear her friend's words, but it was hard to tell whether she was speaking to Cecil or the other man.
At this moment, Cecil suddenly glanced at Linda, seeming to sense her gaze on him.
The moment their sights crossed, Linda quickly looked away.
She felt so embarrassed that she wanted to turn around and leave right away, but she couldn't, because she had to wait for Michelle.
To her surprise, Cecil strode over and stopped in front of her.
He gestured to Michelle with his chin before shooting Linda a disdainful look.
"Is that your friend?"
Pretending to be calm, Linda nodded.
"Yes."
"Birds of a feather flock together,"
Cecil sneered before walking away. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
For a moment, Linda was stunned, but she quickly spoke again while he was walking past her.
"What do you mean?"
Cecil paused, turned around, and took two steps towards her, making her retreat subconsciously.
A smile that was both playful and condescending tugged at the edges of his lips.
"Both of you made the first move." Linda pursed her lips.
As insulted as she felt, there was nothing she could say to refute his statement.
Satisfied with getting the last word, Cecil walked away and joined his friend.
When Linda turned around, she saw Michelle walking back towards her.
"Linda...Mr.Fu has left," she said in a low voice.
It seemed that Michelle had confessed her love to Cecil's friend.
An inexplicable feeling of relief washed over Linda before she pressed her lips together and asked, "So, how did he respond to your confession?"
"He asked me 'So?"
"Well, what did you say?" Linda asked with a frown.
"I asked him if he was interested in being my boyfriend.
"And?"
"He said that he was sorry, because he just started dating someone else last night."
Hearing this, Linda was speechless.Before she could say anything, Michelle continued again, "But for some reason, I have a feeling that he will break up with his girlfriend soon."
"Why?"
"He has dated a lot of women, and none of his relationships lasts for long.I only confessed to him now because he hasn't had a girlfriend for more than a month, but it turns out that I was too late."
Michelle shrugged, looking a little downcast.
Linda shook her head and pulled Michelle's arm.
"Why did you fall in love with such a man?"
Michelle let out a sigh and leaned her head on Linda's shoulder.
"Albert Fu is the dream boyfriend of almost every girl in Los University.I'm just an ordinary girl.How could I control myself?"
Linda bit her lower lip and hesitantly asked, "Then, do you know the man who was with him?"
"Of course.It's Albert's best friend, Cecil Bo.He's a business tycoon from the Bo Group.He is supposed to be the Prince Charming of Los City, but I don't like his cold aura.Anyway, I heard that he got married recently." Linda nodded.
"Yes, I'm the one who married him."
