Chapter 0278

He literary stomps towards us. When he reaches us, he pulls me out of my chair before k*ssing me ucking confusing and frustrating. I hate that I have to be told about my life by other people. It’s something that I should be able to remember instead of being told about it like it was a damn story.

“You hinted that you came into my life after Emma came back, but you already knew our story. How’s that possible, and how did we meet?”

“Travis and I are dating. We’ve been dating for almost two years now. I knew of your history with Emma

and Rowan because Travis told me.

And things get even more interesting. I didn’t see that coming. Given how think he would warn his girlfriend to stay away from me.

Travis also despised me, I’d

Also, how are we even friends? Travis is a piece of work, and I’m sure his girlfriend is probably the same.

After all, don’t birds of a feather flock together?

She must have seen the doubt in my eyes because she grabs my hand.

“I know what you’re thinking, but it isn’t like that. After Travis told me about you, I kept my distance. Not because I supported them and what they did to you, but because I was afraid you’d reject my friendship because I was dating him. It was after your attack that I came looking for you. I wanted to make sure your were okay and that you knew you weren’t alone.”

terms.”

“Yes.” She replied, shifting in her seat. “You’d cut him from your life.”

Well, there is another surprise.

I only had one question, though:

“Why would I have cut him off and not Rowan? He’s caused me more pain than almost everyone

combined.”

Panic flashes in her eyes. I see her begin to get nervous before she forces herself to calm down. If what, she was saying was the truth, why would she panic at my simple question?

That’s something you have to figure out yourself,” she finally answers. “But I think that it’s maybe because, even though you tried killing your love for Rowan, you never succeeded. It was buried under years of pain, but it never faded. On the other hand, your love for Travis, Kate, and James. It faded. That’s

I go to say something, but she cuts me off.

“Plus, it’s hard to move on from someone when he is constantly around you. Because of the shared cust …” Her eyes widen as if she’d caught herself right before revealing something she wasn’t supposed to.” Because of Noah, you two were always around each other.”
