Crossroads

Chapter 179

“If I weren’t Oscar’s girlfriend, he wouldn’t even look at me…” These words were filled with resentment but also helplessness.

Chloe, sitting across from her, raised her eyebrows in surprise. She had known Hayley for years, and it was unexpected to hear such words from someone so rational.

So, Hayley loved him, and she loved him deeply.

“Hayley, have you ever thought that you’re actually pushing him further away by doing this…”

Chloe suddenly thought of her own issues and smiled self–mockingly, her tone turning serious, “Over the years, you’ve entered Dominick’s circle, and George and Mary have good feelings toward you, especially since introverted Yvonne relies on you. But all of this is because you’re known as Oscar’s girlfriend. This identity means that even if Dominick were to fall for you one day, you and he could never be together.

“Dominick would never take his buddy’s woman. By doing this, aren’t you just…”

Hayley felt sad. Chloe had hit the nail on the head. She suddenly stood up from her seat, staring out the window into the distance.

“I didn’t think that far.”

When they were studying abroad, Dominick was dazzling. There were always so many pretty girls trying to get close to him, boldly and openly trying to learn more about this man.

“At least now, I get more of his attention than a stranger would.” Hayley’s whispered words seemed to comfort her, yet they were also mocking.

That’s true. Dominick has always been aloof with any woman.”

Chloe picked up a fork from the table and casually ate some pasta. But then, as if something had occurred to her, her face darkened, and she raised her voice. “By the way, what about Stephanie? How is she getting along with Dominick…”

Hayley looked at the beautiful, twinkling lights in the distance, her expression tense and unpleasant.
