Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 132 A Good Hand Of Cards

The voice calling out my name was simply too familiar to me—Camille. Without even a backward glance, I continued striding toward my residential area.

Ugh! Why must she hound me endlessly? How irritating!

Despite my fervent desire to be rid of her, she was simply persistent at pestering me. Right then, she had already caught up to me and blocked my path.

“Liliana, I want to talk to you.”

I ignored her as though I didn’t hear her. Moving around her, I continued forging ahead.

However, Camille again raced up to me and grabbed me. “Liliana, I…”

Shaking her off, I pushed her away and snarled testily, “Are you sick in the head? I’ve got nothing to say to you, nor do I want to listen to anything from you, so stop blocking my path!”

Every single time Camille sought me out, I always expressed my detestation of her loud and clear. However, she was simply like a burr which I couldn’t shake off no matter how hard I tried.

This situation now was the perfect example of that. I had already put things bluntly; yet, she was still blocking my path.

My head started throbbing, and aggravation assaulted me. “That’s enough, Camille Madison! What the hell do you want?” I barked.

A faint smile bloomed on her face, and she earnestly asserted, “I have no malicious intentions. I just want to talk to you.”

“I really can’t figure out what’s going on in your head. What do you think there is to talk about between us?”
