Fated To Three, And I Broke Them All novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169: 169-A True Friend Like Gigi

Jenna:

I was panicking.

The minute she said she knew I had a crush on Theodore, my entire life flashed before my eyes.

This is exactly why Lady Lucille had asked me never to spend time alone with Gigi again.

She told me Gigi was clever.

She told me Gigi was mean.

Gigi was too bold for someone like me.

She made me promise never to even sit with Gigi unless other people were around.

But what could I do?

She kept following me.

In fact, she walked right into the kitchen and asked the maids to leave so we could spend time together.

That was exactly what I had wanted until yesterday, even until an hour ago.

But now I couldn’t break Lady Lucille’s promise, the promise I had made to her.

And yet, the moment Gigi added that last part, all the panic and anxiety I had been feeling eased a little.

"Well, it is not a bad thing."

There was such a warm, welcoming look on her face.

She smiled, leaned against me, and playfully nudged my shoulder with her elbow.

"I’d want a sister-in-law like you too."

Then she said the magical words I had always wanted to hear from her.

My eyes widened, and my mouth fell open.

For the next few minutes, I simply stared at her without uttering a word.

"Are you okay?" she asked with a laugh, gently placing her hand on my shoulder and giving me a light shake.

"I’m not sure what you’re talking about," I lied, lowering my gaze to avoid looking back into her eyes.

"I understand how you’re feeling. You’re young. You’re a virgin. Things like this can be overwhelming, and I’m being very straightforward. But I wanted to be honest with you. I want you with Theodore more than I want anyone else with him."

Gigi hopped off the counter, making it clear that she wanted to bring me together with the man I’d had a crush on for so long.

"I don’t think we’re compatible."

I finally dropped the act of pretending I didn’t know what she was talking about.

She was talking about something I had wanted for so long.

Finally, someone was acknowledging my love for Theodore and was willing to help me.

At least, that’s what it seemed like.

So why the fuck would I ruin it?

"I know, but I also know you’re the only one who can tame him. You can change him," Gigi said as she stood behind me, resting a hand on my shoulder.

It was such a comforting touch.

"But even then, he doesn’t look at me that way because I’m not his type."

I turned to her, sadness written across my face.

"Oh? You know what his type is?" she asked, rolling her eyes.

One hand rested on the counter while the other settled on her waist, her body leaning toward the counter.
