Chapter 66

He nodded and walked toward the amusement park, and I quickly followed.,

"Why'd you leave the group chat?

" he asked as we walked.,

"You know, the guys' group chat. I never said much, and besides, with me there, you guys had to watch your jokes,

" I spoke the truth because there had been a situation before, and Conrad had reminded them then., Back then, Conrad had said,

"Guys, remember my girl's in here.

", I must've read that message about my being his 'girl' a dozen times, feeling like the luckiest person in the world.,

"You're thoughtful,

" Jefferson's words snapped me back to reality., I didn't respond as Jefferson stopped before a carousel and asked,

"Can I go for a ride?

",

"Sure!

", After I said that, he hopped on and started spinning around.,

"Hey, this is fun,

" Jefferson turned into a three-year-old then., I watched him, not saying a word. After several spins, Jefferson said again,

"You're letting Conrad go?

", I leaned against a nearby pole.

"I'm a bit of a clean freak, remember?

", It took another spin for Jefferson to reply,

"Don't you think letting go so easily is just making it easy for someone else?

", I smiled.

"I'm always generous!

", My comment made Jefferson laugh. He hit the stop button on the carousel and got off.

"Do you know what everyone said after you left the group chat yesterday?

"

"I'd rather not know,

" I was straightforward like that., But being who he was, Jefferson went ahead anyway.

"They said you let go so easily just because you didn't love Rad enough.

", I nodded slightly,

"Maybe.

",

"And do you know how Rad reacted in the chat?

" Jefferson looked at me, clearly enjoying the moment., I thought for a second before saying,

"Rad left the group.

", Jefferson gave me a thumbs up.

"On that front, you two are a perfect match.

",

"Now, he's a better match for red roses,

" I had finished speaking when Deborah ran over.,

"Felicia, the pizza's here. Eat now?

", I looked at Jefferson.

"If you've got nothing else, you can stay and play. I'm going to grab something to eat.

",

"Go ahead. I'll hang around,

" Jefferson sometimes acted like a kid, but he was closest to Conrad., So, he was close to me, too. He didn't try to persuade me but wanted to know what I thought and told me what I needed to hear.,

"Felicia, you're infuriatingly cool,

" Jefferson called behind me., I turned around.

"What?

",

"You even liked Rad's post. That's classy!

" Jefferson gave me another thumbs up., I smiled faintly.

"Rad showed it to me. I had to let him know I saw it.

", While eating, Deborah couldn't help but gossip,

"Felicia, is Jefferson Mr. Wagner's knight in shining armor or what?

",

"No, he's just here for a chat. Don't overthink it. Right now, not even the Almighty could fix this,

" my words made Deborah sigh.,

"Felicia, you're tough. I'd be wavering,

" Deborah mused.,

"Everyone's different with their strengths,

" I poked at my pizza, feeling nauseous and unable to eat., Just then, my phone rang. It was Graham, saying the lighting technician had arrived., I told Graham to bring the lighting technician in and forced myself to eat a few more bites. I wasn't hungry but needed the energy to keep working., But before I could finish, Graham came in with the guest, and when I saw who it was, I was stunned., Search the website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
