The Girl They Ignored Returned as the Woman Seven Men Would Die For novel Chapter 21

Seraphina Sutton was used to being the center of attention wherever she went.

Every eye would be locked on her, and everyone prioritized her feelings above all else.

But this time, the situation was completely reversed.

She, Seraphina Sutton, had actually been reduced to a mere side character.

What made it entirely unacceptable was that she wasn't losing out to some stunning beauty, but to her universally despised, ugly best friend, Mika Miller!

She watched Jude Jensen acting so gentle and considerate toward Mika up ahead.

Leaning on her trekking pole, Seraphina lowered her gaze, her eyes landing on a loose rock on the mountain path.

Her gaze turned somber, and in the next second, she deliberately stepped her right foot onto the rock.

"Ah!"

A delicate yet piercing scream rang out from behind.

Jude and Mika turned around at the same time, only to see Seraphina collapsed on the ground, clutching her right calf, her head bowed and her body trembling slightly.

"Seraphina!" Jude completely abandoned his strategy of giving her the cold shoulder, sprinting back and crouching anxiously in front of her. "What happened? Are you okay?"

Sniffling, Seraphina tremblingly rolled up the hem of her jeans, revealing a luminous ankle that was already turning angry and red.

"I think... I sprained my ankle."

After saying that, she lifted her chin, gazing weakly at Jude with doe-like eyes, her rims instantly flushing pink.

Enduring the pain, tears welled up in her eyes, yet she stubbornly refused to let them fall.

Meeting her pitiful, teary gaze, Jude's heart sank instantly, wishing he could bear the pain in her place.

Seeing the genuine concern in Jude's eyes, and Mika completely abandoned behind him...

The heavy, suffocating weight in Seraphina's chest finally eased.

"Did I... cause trouble for you guys?"

Pressing her advantage, the tears that had been welling in her eyes finally fell at the perfect moment.
