Still upset, Nina had forgotten to buckle up after getting in the car. She tugged at the strap irritably yet failed to pull it free no matter how hard she tried.

Seeing her flustered look, Jensen reached over to help her pull the belt out and click it into place. “If you dislike riding up front, sit in the back seat from now on, except when you’re in my car.”

“Don’t tell me you actually have feelings for me?”

Jensen froze for a second at her words. Nina then spoke casually right after, “Just kidding. I know you’re only using me as an excuse to end this loveless engagement. I get it, but don’t do it again. Otherwise, rumors will start spreading all over town.”

“What kind of rumors?”

“The same gossip that went around about me and Caleb before.” Nina sighed. “He once used me to turn down all his admirers, and look at all those messy rumors floating around Linholt about us. None of them sound decent at all.”

“So all those talks about you two dating or being engaged are nothing but lies.”

“We’re just close friends who’ve stood side by side through tough times.”

“Do you know genuine friendships between men and women are rarely fully pure?”

“Is that so?”

Nina did not take his words seriously. She and Caleb had always kept things completely platonic all these years. They could even stay alone in the same room all night and only chat about trivial daily stuff.

“You may think that way, but he might feel differently.”

“Don’t worry, he has never seen me as a woman at all. There’s zero romance between us.”

Back in her past life, her inferiority complex had kept others away, leaving her with barely any friends, let alone female pals. She dropped out of school right after high school to marry Chase, and was then told to stay home and tend to the family by Cecilia. She barely met

other men, and always felt left out without girl friends by her side. Chase was even embarrassed by her and never let her show up in public.

Though she was no longer timid and insecure after her rebirth, people found her cold and distant instead, so few took the initiative to get close to her. She had very few true friends. She had focused fully on studying overseas and never got close to any girlfriends.

Only Caleb got along well with her. They’d stood by each other overseas all those years, sharing nothing but genuine friendship.

Once Caleb had a girlfriend, they would naturally keep a proper distance. Knowing his personality, he would spoil his partner thoroughly and never let her feel wronged in any way.

Jensen kept his eyes on the road as he spoke, “You hang around Caleb so often. Haven’t you thought this will make it harder for both of you to find suitable partners later on?”

“Why would it?”

“Because everyone already sees you two as a couple.” There was a faint hint of jealousy hidden in his tone, though Nina failed to notice it at all.

“It’s not that bad. We can both fend off unwanted romantic advances for each other,” Nina mumbled casually.

Everything she had gone through in her past life had made her indifferent to romantic relationships. Dating and marriage no longer meant much to her. All she wished for was for her family to stay safe and live a peaceful steady life without more troubles.

Jensen glanced sideways and spotted her scrolling through house-hunting apps on her phone. “Do your parents know you plan to move out alone?”

Nina paused her movements instantly.

“I happen to own a place I can sell to you if you want to move out.”

“How much are you asking for it?”

“Name any price you think fits.”

He knew she had saved quite a fortune during her years working as an entertainer overseas, yet he had no idea exactly how much she had put aside.

“Where is it? What’s the square footage? Does it have a private yard?”

After catching sight of her filter options on the screen, Jensen answered calmly. “It sits
