Chapter 122

Katniss kept quiet.

She didn't know much about Byron, but from his fancy clothes and big spending, he seemed loaded or high up the social ladder.

Cecilia's family was pretty well-off too. Even if they weren't the top dogs in the Thorne family, they were still a big deal in Luminous City, way above the average Joe. The Thorne family didn't object, so they must be cool with it.

In her past life, Katniss would have told Cecilia to go for what she wanted, to avoid any regrets!

But now, she admired Cecilia's resolve in moving on. A guy loving another girl was as gross as a piece of trash stinky and annoying.

Katniss poked Cecilia's cheek. "Yeah, don't be dumb enough to like a guy who's already into someone else. Just move on, the next one will be better."

A teenage crush should be like a quick, bright firework. When she met someone really worth it, she would forget about this.

Cecilia looked at Katniss, surprised, then pouted. "If you can control your feelings, it means they're not deep enough! Byron likes Ashley now. If I confess my feelings to him, we might not even be friends anymore. Byron, to me, is just someone to admire from a distance."

"But I heard Ashley has a boyfriend. Byron was about to give up after being down for a while, but when something happened to Ashley's family last time, he helped out a lot and got close to her again."

Katniss glanced at her and laughed, "So Byron's a love wrecker? Find someone with better morals."

Cecilia mumbled and didn't say anything else.

She was trying, but hadn't succeeded yet.

Suddenly, Katniss felt her phone buzz. There was a new message.

She opened it and saw it was from Maximilian.
