Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 126 Is He Your New Boyfriend

Puzzled as to the sight that was making Shannon so worked up, I curiously looked in the direction she was pointing.

Hmm? Isn’t that Dominic and Camille?

They were chatting while watching the group of people dancing around the bonfire. It seemed that they hadn’t spotted Shannon and me yet.

I wasn’t in the mood to deal with Camille’s pretentiousness or fight with her, much less watch her being all lovey-dovey with Dominic.

Thus, I reached out to pull Shannon away, but she had already rolled up her sleeves in preparation of charging forward to brawl with them.

I swiftly grabbed her and demanded, “What are you trying to do? Are you planning to beat them up?”

“Yes, I’m planning to beat them up, alright! I’m even going to find a rod and wallop them until they beg me for mercy!”

Torn between amusement and exasperation, I chided, “Stop messing around. Look at your petite stature. Considering your puny strength, Dominic can crush you with just one finger.”

Shannon thumped me on the back in chagrin and huffily retorted, “Why are you disparaging yourself and lauding others? I’m trying to stand up for you!”

“I’m just worried that you’ll be hurt,” I hastily mollified her with a smile. “Alright, let’s just ignore them and leave. They’re no one important anyway.”

As I said that, I tugged at Shannon, eager to leave so that we could look for Royce and Quinn.

Another reason for my urgency in leaving was my worry that Dominic would see Royce when the latter returned.
