The Ex-Wife He Can’t Have novel Chapter 334

He didn't join in the games, nor did he mingle. He spent most of the time standing alone in silence, holding a glass.

His solitary, aloof silhouette felt like a brand, searing itself deep into her heart.

After that, they bumped into each other occasionally, though their interactions were scarce.

But Jillian never considered giving up. She was young back then—passionate, stubborn, confident, and relentless.

She believed that effort could overcome anything.

She thought that as long as she tried hard enough, she could change everything.

But no one could have predicted that during a party right before graduation, she would accidentally end up sleeping with Killian.

After that night, Killian's attitude toward her plummeted, reaching the point where simply seeing her seemed to annoy him.

"What's on your mind? You're completely zoned out."

Daniel's gentle voice pulled Jillian back to reality.

Snapping out of her daze, Jillian shook her head slightly and smiled, changing the subject. "Nothing, just reminiscing about college."

"By the way, that spicy noodle shop by the campus gate is still there."

"Really? It never closed down?" Jillian's face lit up with surprise.

Daniel nodded.

"That's great. I thought it would have gone out of business ages ago."

A bright sparkle danced in Jillian's eyes as she smiled. "I'm treating you to noodles today."

"No need, it's on me," Daniel replied with a soft smile.

"You always paid for my meals back in college. It's my turn now."

During their university days, Daniel had been incredibly thoughtful. Knowing she came from an ordinary background, he never took her to expensive places. He always chose affordable hole-in-the-wall spots so she wouldn't feel any financial pressure.

Occasionally, Jillian would give him inexpensive little gifts to make up for the meals.

And Daniel had never turned them down.

They maintained this unspoken understanding, neither of them ever pointing it out.

Daniel didn't insist any further. "Alright."
