Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 667

Chapter 667 Is He Not Callous

A blush crept up Celine's face, and she dared not argue with Harper anymore. She lowered her head and gazed at the tips of her white shoes, noticing they were slightly dirty.

Harper had been interacting with Celine for over a month then, so she had come to understand the latter's personality.

At the silence presently, she knew that Celine was feeling guilty.

She harrumphed. “Don't think I'm oblivious to it. The two of you didn't go home straight on Saturday, huh?”

Harper had been itching to gossip about the events on Saturday, but she held herself back upon recalling Celine's tear-streaked face and embarrassed expression.

Nearly two days had passed since everything happened, so she felt that there were some things she needed to confront.

Of course, she was not saying that she wanted to ask Celine what exactly was going on right then.

Instead, she simply wanted to indulge in some gossip.

Celine had not expected Harper to continue pursuing the matter and felt downright embarrassed. “I was in a bad mood that day.”

“Rowen consoled you?”

Harper's eyes went wide, and she gaped at Celine in disbelief.

Celine shook her head. “No.”

Glancing at Harper, she added, “Rowie said he doesn't know how to console people.”

“Rowie?” Goosebumps rose all over Harper when she heard that. “Your way of addressing him is quite unique.”

Celine was already feeling embarrassed. She flushed even redder when Harper teased her.

“If you keep this up, I'm not talking to you anymore!”

“Hey! No, please! I was wrong, and I apologize!”

Hugging her, Harper laughed cheerily. “Where did you two go that day? Don't tell me somewhere nearby. I went back to look for you both!”

Celine glanced at her. She pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably guilty. “Nowhere much. We just went to the park by the riverbank.”

“You went to the riverbank, huh?” Harper quirked a brow. “I didn't expect Rowen to actually accompany you to the riverbank.”

While saying that, she brought up some of the things Rowen had done in the past and started to gripe about him.

As Celine listened, she realized that her feelings were somewhat different from before.

She knew that Harper would never lie to her. But hearing the latter talk about Rowen making girls cry easily, she felt he was not such a person.

“Let me tell you this, Cece. Don't be fooled by his decent appearance. His actions are downright apathetic! He doesn't know the first thing about cherishing girls. During Grade Eight, the prettiest girl from the adjacent class took a fall in front of him. She reached out for a hand from him, but he just ignored her and walked right past. Say, isn't he callous?”

Perhaps because she felt there was no hope for her to be with Rowen, but Harper found that she no longer wore the rose-tinted glasses of her first crush and saw flaws in him everywhere.

Celine pursed her lips without responding to that.

As they walked, Harper chattered away. When they arrived at the bus stop, they did not have to wait long before the bus arrived.

By the time the second class of the morning ended, the literature test results were released.

The literature teacher of Grade Eleven Class Seven walked into the classroom with a bundle of papers in hand and joy written all over his face. “Well done! Our class has produced the top scorer for the entire grade for the midterm exam this time!”

Class Seven had always been at the bottom when it came to literature. Even at her best, the top literature student in the class, the class monitor, Rhianne, only managed to rank tenth in the entire grade.

Now that someone had suddenly topped the literature test, the excitement among the students was palpable.

Harper was such a gossip that she ran over to Celine right after class and said, “Rhianne is truly amazing this time. She actually ranked first in the whole grade!”
