A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 225

Feena nodded.

Sidney giggled. "Oh? Lyla, are you actually interested in him? Are you thinking about making the first move?"

This time, Lyla didn't deny it. Her cheeks flushed slightly, but instead of arguing, she said, "I just think he seems really great. If… he really doesn't have a girlfriend, Feena, would you mind giving me his number?"

She hadn't spent much time around Jack, but something about him drew her in. His mannerisms were refined, his smile warm and effortless. And his eyes—there was something captivating about them. She had spent most of lunch sneaking glances at him, completely absorbed.

Simply put, he was the kind of guy who made girls' hearts race.

Lyla had always had high standards for a boyfriend—money, looks, talent, a good family background, intelligence… the whole package. But the moment she met Jack's gaze, all that stuff didn't matter anymore because Jack was truly exceptional and interesting.

She found herself wondering—if she could date someone like him, wouldn't life be so much more exciting?

Feena grinned playfully. "Sure! But honestly, I'm not totally sure if he has a girlfriend or not. I'll find out for you! If he's single, I'll put in a good word for you."

Her tone was carefree, but deep down, a strange, uneasy feeling crept over her.

Lyla, Sidney, even Phoebe, and Wesley—they had only seen a small glimpse of Jack.

If it weren't for pure coincidence, Feena herself wouldn't have known just how much more there was to him. His talent went beyond what most people could even comprehend. He wasn't just the top scholar in the state or some skilled fighter who happened to save lives.
