When David saw me on the balcony, a hint of panic flashed across his face. But he was soon replaced by surprise. After I approached him, he lowered his eyes with a gloomy face. But when he looked at me, he put on his usual kind smile and said, “Olive, long time no see! Why are you here?”.
He turned to look at Nick and asked, “Baby, did you invite her here?”
She was threatening Nick again! But people who didn’t know the inside story couldn’t figure out that he was a threat at all.
“I did not know”.
Nick subconsciously wanted to explain. But I took his hand and interrupted, “Why? Do I need to inform you before I go visit my best friend?”
I looked at David and continued, “
You must have misunderstood something.”
Seeing him approach me with a smile, I immediately stopped him and said, “Stop! Get out of me!”
I have never stopped Nick from contacting anyone.” Ugnt smile, “Good. But you
“Well, you won’t directly ask him to stop contacting me. But you’re tricking him into making him feel guilty. He cares about your feelings, so he gradually stops contacting other people. You want him to only care about you.” you’re right?”
I was not Nick. Although he had admired this hypocrite when he was young and ignorant, now he felt only disgust for him. He was a psycho!
After being silent for a moment, David asked, “Did Nick tell you this?”
Now, he was still shifting the focus to blame Nick.
I snorted, “He didn’t tell me anything. But I have eyes and a brain. He was on the balcony just now and I saw with my own eyes how you gaslighted him.
When Nick grabbed my hand from behind him, his palm was covered in sweat, making me feel sad as if an invisible hand was squeezing my heart.
He had suffered such a depressing environment for half a year. If I were him, I would have gone crazy for a long time!
“Olive, things are not what you think. There are misunderstandings.”
David sighed, raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and said, “Well, now that you’ve said it, I’m going to confess.”
He looked into my eyes with a sincere expression and continued, “I didn’t plan on telling anyone before. I have a friend who is a psychologist. After having dinner with Nick and me a few months ago, she told us in secret. To me, there’s something wrong with Nick’s mental state. It can be caused by pressure. You’re not at Harvard, so you don’t know how stressful it is to work here.”
“It’s you who puts pressure on him.”
I didn’t believe his words at all. He wanted her to think that Nick was sick and hinted that she had been quietly tolerating him all along. It meant that she had cleared the obstacles in school for Nick and controlled his social relationships because she wanted to help him.
“All I know is that Nick is afraid of you! He wants to break up with you!”
David’s fake smile finally broke after hearing the words “break up”.
His face turned grim. But he caught himself and asked, “So he asked you to come here to help him break up with me?”
“I came here because I wanted to surprise him. And I didn’t expect to see such a good show.”
My intuition told me that David was dangerous.
