The Girl They Ignored Returned as the Woman Seven Men Would Die For novel Chapter 86

Seraphina's lips trembled as she shot a look back at Lucas.

Lucas's eyes were dark, his gaze fixed intensely on Mika, looking as if he had a million things to say but couldn't.

Finally, he took a step forward, offering a tissue to Mika. "You don't need to go to such lengths for a friend. Friendships are supposed to be equal.

Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness. Besides... you aren't nearly as bad as you make yourself out to be."

Hearing this, Seraphina's heart lurched violently.

It was over. Lucas was totally sympathizing with Mika now.

She gritted her teeth secretly, turned back with teary eyes, and forced a fragile smile toward Lucas.

"You're right. How could I ever let Mika give up on love for me? She's my most important friend, too."

She had a petite frame that naturally evoked a sense of vulnerability. Right now, her innocent, delicate gaze toward Lucas made him stiffen slightly. Under the bewitching spell of that face, the displeasure he had just felt toward her vanished without a trace.

Mika perfectly captured the shift in Lucas's expression but didn't feel much about it.

She knew all too well how overpowering the female lead halo was. After all, in her past life, even she had been utterly captivated by Seraphina's pure, innocent facade, acting as her loyal servant without a single complaint.

Lucas had fallen in love with Seraphina at first sight in the previous timeline. It wasn't strange that he would still be moved by her fake tears.

Fortunately, this time around, Mika could feel that by stripping Seraphina of the 'savior' advantage from their first meeting, Lucas was at least no longer blindly taking her side.

Taking advantage of the gap in Seraphina's halo-casting, she naturally reached out and accepted the tissue Lucas handed her.

But she didn't use it on herself. Instead, she gently forced Seraphina to face her and softly dabbed at the tears hanging from the girl's lashes.

"There, there, don't cry. Honestly, that slap you gave me in the recovery room really woke me up.

At the end of the day, even though I had no idea about those forum posts, they still caused you trouble. I'm not mad at you for hitting me. I really aren't."
