Keegan took a peek from above Stella’s head.
Vermont held and kissed the person who was almost a head shorter than him for some time before finally letting go of her.
Felicity’s face was extremely red. She raised her hand up and slapped Vermont.
Stella knew Felicity very well, and she could tell that Felicity did not use her full strength in that slap. Otherwise, Vermont would be screaming in pain if the slap did not make him bleed.
Vermont turned his face sideways and pressed his tongue against his cheek that Felicity slapped. He looked at Felicity and said mischievously,” I’ve touched your lips too. Are you going to rip it off as well?”
Felicity wiped her lips with her elbow and scolded Vermont with red eyes.” You scum! I treated you like my brother, yet to you, I’m a toy that you can play with just whenever you want?”
“Brother?” Vermont chuckled. “You kept avoiding me like I’m a ghost. Is this how you treat your brother? You asked for my help, but you don’t even want to see me. You’re not that much of a saint yourself, isn’t it?”
Felicity froze and said while gritting her teeth, “When did I treat you like that?”
“You’d run a thousand miles away from me every time I grabbed your arm, and you’d even stick yourself to the wall when we met in the elevator. Do you really think that I’m blind?”
Vermont got angrier as he spoke. The negative emotions that he accumulated peaked when he saw how good she and Corbin looked together earlier.
“You’d be so polite when you need my help, but you’ll treat me worse than a pile of dirt when you don’t. I guess you don’t need me anymore now that you have Corbin, huh? Do you really think Corbin is interested in you? I’ll tell you what, he’s only here with you because he wants to get in your-“
Slap!
Felicity used her full strength this time.
The side of Vermont’s face immediately felt numb.
He was fuming. Nobody had ever slapped his face like this since he became an adult. He turned around and was just about to lash out at Felicity. However, he found that tears were already rolling down from her eyes.
Her eyes were huge and so were her tear droplets. They fell from her face like beads from a broken string.
