Chapter 86

On the fourth day of the long holiday, Principal Fletcher sent Jocelyn a text, inquiring about her decision.

Jocelyn had given it a lot of thought. Ever since she joined the school, Principal Fletcher and her colleagues had been very supportive, especially during the Incident last fall when the school had stood firmly behind her

Now the school needed her help. She couldn’t bear the thought of letting Principal Fletcher down.

She replied that she would talk it over with Melvin, but she couldn’t quarantee the outcome.

Poncipal Fielcher thanked her profusely, which only increased the pressure on Jocelyn.

She regretted saying ‘yes’ the moment she sent the text.

She didn’t even know how to approach Melvin about it. After she had broken up with him, he hadn’t left a single thing behind, nor taken anything with him.

He had thrown all his belongings into the dumpster below her apartment as if to show her just how repulsed he was by her

Ha, it was laughable. He had turned a blind eye to everything Willow had done, and still attended events with her in public.

But with Jocelyn…

It’s pretty obvious he didn’t love Jocelyn.

Now, she couldn’t even figure out how to set up a meeting with him.

While she was fretting, Harrison sent her a message, asking if she wanted to grab a bite since he was in town.

Since the rumour last time, Harrison had only occasionally liked her tweets, without any real conversation with her.

Jocelyn felt that what had happened was unfair to Harrison too. They were both just pawns in someone else’s game.

Previously, she would keep her distance from other men to avoid upsetting Melvin, but now she was free to expand her social circle.

She agreed to meet Harrison.

They decided on a popular restaurant with light dishes. She dared not take him for anything too spicy after their last adventure.
