Although Vermont had seen a lot of things, he had no idea how to react to that situation."Tell me!"Felicity urged him.Vermont stared at the mushroom, pursed his lips, and said, "It's not that thin."Felicity was taken aback, and her face turned extremely red. She kicked him and gritted her teeth. "Who asked you about that?"Vermont grabbed her ankle with one hand and held her waist with the other. He pulled her closer to him and whispered near her ear, "Am I really your first love? How come you're not shy at all to discuss such private matters in front of me?"Felicity could be very assertive as long as there was no physical contact, but she would immediately stiffen up the moment there was, especially when Vermont spoke in her ear like that.However, she would not last too long in that state because as soon she thought about Vermont's condition, she would be disappointed and snap herself out of it.Felicity snorted. "Who told you you're my first love?"Vermont chuckled sof
Felicity was simply lying.All the boys she liked during her school days ended up being her buddies, and she even introduced a girl to one of them. Last year, she attended their wedding where she spent a thousand dollars on the wedding gift for them.As for the others, they either got snatched by some other girls or realized that their sexual orientation was gay as they grew older. Otherwise, a good catch like her would not have stayed single until now."There's no one, right?" Vermont grew smug after seeing her silence. "You were just making something up to tease me, right?"Felicity could not stand the prideful look on his face!So, she stiffened her neck and said, "Of course, there is! Not only that he was my first love, but we also grew up together! We used to spend so much time together when we were younger, and he would take me everywhere. He was handsome, had a good temper, and was very good at cheering me up."Initially, she only said that to mess with Vermont. But, once
Vermont's expression turned serious, as he held Felicity's face and examined her closely. He stared at her so closely that it made her feel uneasy.She swatted his hand away and glared at him. "What are you doing?"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, and only 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 the boy you were talking about."Felicity's lips twitched. "What is wrong with you? Are you possessed? You don't have to go so far even if 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 c
Vermont had a strange look on his face, and it took him a while to say, "That's because I've always thought that the chubby little kid was a boy."Felicity was speechless."Besides, you look so different now compared to before. Your face used to look like a ball, and your cheeks were very red. Now, you look like a fairy. How was a mere mortal like me supposed to recognize you?"Felicity did not feel any better after listening to his sweet words and irrelevant remarks about her. She gritted her teeth and went straight to the point. "We spent two years together, and you've always thought that I was a boy? Were you blind? Why did you say that you'd marry me if you thought I was a boy?"Vermont reached out to stroke Felicity's back. "I didn't think too much about it. I had no idea why a big boy would be worried about not having a husband in the future, so I said that to make you feel better."Felicity got even angrier and began hitting him. "What a playboy! You started flirting around
Vermont had never imagined that the kid from his childhood turned out to be a girl, and she even became the girlfriend he was so obsessed with.Although Vermont worked in the entertainment industry, he was not as superstitious as many others in the business.He did not believe in fate or destiny. He only believed in himself.He would do anything in his power to get everything he wanted, just like how he pursued Felicity. Even if it meant using some tricks, he would still do it.However, he suddenly felt as though some things might truly be destined.Otherwise, after all these years apart, just when he was about to forget his childhood friend, why would Felicity suddenly appear in his life?He finally realized why his heart would melt every time he looked at Felicity's watery eyes and wanted to share all the good things with her.He would feel happy when Felicity was happy and feel worse when Felicity was sad.That was because Felicity still had the same eyes that captivated him
After all, Jaylene was the one who played dirty first by stealing her customer. So, Stella figured that she had to do something about it.Since she admired and liked Keegan so much, Stella wanted Jaylene to see how someone so unattainable to her would do just anything for Stella herself!The Century Mall only had one nail salon, and it was located on the third floor.The shop lot was huge. It did not only offer manicures, but it also offered a wide range of other basic beauty treatments. However, manicures seemed to be their specialty.When they stepped into the salon, the receptionist immediately approached them and said, "I'm sorry. Our services here are exclusively for women. Sir, you can head to our designated lounge to wait and enjoy the desserts and tea provided."Stella kept quiet.'Now, how am I supposed to show him off?'Keegan was very happy with that arrangement and even encouraged Stella. "Go on. Beat her with your own capabilities."Stella glared at the gloating pe
Stella heaved a sigh of relief. 'I'm glad that I can think fast.'She wanted to say Jaylene's name, but then she thought that since Jaylene had invited Kayla to get their nails done here, she must have chosen a salon that Kayla visited frequently."Really?" Stella pretended to be surprised. "What a coincidence."Rebecca replied gently, "I'll get you in the same room as Ms. Wilson. The manicurist she booked today is the best one in our salon. She can do all kinds of designs, including hand-painted ones."Stella smiled. "Thank you so much.""Don't mention it. So, which design are you interested in?"Stella looked at her and asked, "Which would give you the highest commission?"Rebecca was taken aback and suddenly felt a little awkward.Stella added, "I'm not trying to pry into your industry secrets. I'm very happy with your service. That's why I want you to earn a little bit more. That way, both of us can be happy."Rebecca was moved upon hearing that. She was only used to custo
"Kayla has never gotten her nails done, and it's me who recommended her to come here. So, I know exactly what she likes."Stella paused. "She has never gotten her nails done?"Jaylene froze and immediately realized that she had said something wrong.She immediately looked at Kayla, who had a cold expression. She could not figure out what Kayla was thinking.Jaylene felt regretful. She had been so focused on stopping Stella from getting close to Kayla that she failed to consider Kayla's feelings. She should not have revealed her relationship with Kayla just because she wanted to provoke Stella.She did not expect Stella to be so shameless and even followed them here.She pursed her lips and tried to correct what she said. "What I meant was that she hasn't done any designs similar to this."Stella breathed a sigh of relief. "Please be clearer next time. I thought you were saying that Ms. Wilson is uncultured."Jaylen's mouth twitched. She had just managed to brush it off, yet Ste
