Chapter 228

Felix, who had been following behind me and whom I had deliberately ignored, was unable to stand motionless much longer. That was why he finally spoke up.

It was a pity that his goal was to shatter my heart rather than educate me. I was unable to dodge his hurtful words.

It would’ve been fine if he hadn’t said anything. I could then act as though he never existed. Once I went into the apartment, he would leave and go on his own way. We wouldn’t need to get involved with each other.

But he insisted on speaking and even spoke in a tone that sounded like he was mocking me. It triggered my rebellious streak, making me want to lash out at him with the foulest insults imaginable. I wanted to make him feel what I was going through.

Unfortunately, I never learned any curse words from my parents. Since I never had the chance to acquire such an ability, I couldn’t vent my bitterness and anger well.

“Are you jealous? Rather than spreading rumors behind people’s backs, you ought to work on improving yourself. You look so childish.”
