“What did you just call me?” Georgie Clementine asked.
After saying that, Georgie’s facial expression immediately turned cold.
Her behavior activated Henry Armstrong’s survival instinct.
Henry instantly raised both hands and displayed an innocent expression as a sign of surrender. “I was wrong. I’m the silly one. I’m the one at fault…”
When Georgie saw him like this, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Nearby, however, Jenny Armstrong’s smile froze.
Moreover, she would never be able to smile about this again.
Henry and Georgie only had each other in their eyes. Hence, they overlooked the vulnerability in Jenny’s eyes.
After approximately one second, the vulnerability in Jenny’s faded completely. She was smiling once more as if nothing had happened. “I just want to focus on my studies… I don’t want to be in a relationship,” Jenny said.
It wasn’t that Jenny didn’t want a relationship, but that she couldn’t.
She couldn’t break her promise…
Jenny was fine with just silently having a crush on Blakely Shelton…
She could no longer fantasize about anything else.
The two of them were destined to retain their relationship as a fan and an idol.
That was all.
Hearing this, Henry shifted his gaze to Jenny’s face. “I feel that you’ve changed… In the past, you refused to study no matter how you were prompted to… Now, nobody is forcing you to study, but you started getting serious…”
Henry’s eyes filled with approval when he said this.
