Love at the Wrong Table

Chapter 2120 Libby, Who Loves Quintus

“Claudette, listen to this! Haha, it’s not my fault, right? Quintus laughed smugly. “Even Libby agrees that I’m right, so you can’t blame me!”

Claudette rolled her eyes. Quintus‘ ability to stay single was unmatched–even ordinary men had it better than him. He was no match for someone like Emmanuel

“If Mackenzie isn’t here, I’m leaving.” Quintus walked off.

Libby watched him retreat, looking as though she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

Claudette approached her, gently wiping away her tears “Libby, don’t mind my brother. He’s just an oblivious brute. My aunt once told me that, in his world, there are only two kinds of people–Mackenzie and everyone else.”

Libby quickly took the tissue from her, forcing a smile. “Claudette, I’m not crying. It’s fine. Your brother does have good taste. Mackenzie is a hundred times more beautiful than me. But doesn’t she dislike him?”

“Of course she does!” Claudette replied matter–of–factly “Mackenzie has good judgment–there’s no way she’d like someone as clueless as him.”

“Well…” Libby hesitated, fiddling with her fingers. “I actually think he’s pretty great. He’s loyal and doesn’t show interest in other women. Isn’t that dependable?”

Claudette was momentarily speechless but then gave it some thought. She had to admit that Libby wasn’t entirely wrong. Still, she asked in surprise, “Libby, don’t tell me you actually like my brother? He’s so clueless, and he’s hurt you several times!”

“But he saved my life!” Libby blurted out quickly. “If it weren’t for him, I’d have been defiled by those bandits and sacrificed to the Serpent King. My fate would’ve been unimaginable!”

“Why are you always defending him?” Claudette stared directly at her. “Do you really like him? He’s a handful!”

“Erm…” Libby’s face turned crimson as she bit her lip. “Do you think he knows you’re always badmouthing him behind his back?”

“Uh…” Claudette’s face reddened as well, realizing she had lost the argument. “I’m not badmouthing him,” she quickly defended. “I’m just telling the truth!”
