Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 148

The spirit explained gloomily, “My name is Stella. I was born in another city, to an upper-middle-class family. My parents had a mansion. And since I was the only child they had, I was the sole inheritor of the estate. Before studying at the university, I was the perfect kid every parent asked for. But when I moved out and studied at a university, I had my first taste of freedom. Like a caged bird who could fly once more, I did all sorts of things. I went to clubs and parties. Because I was rich and beautiful, I was popular. My first boyfriend was from the very same city. His family background was similar to mine so we got along very well. But after six months, I got bored of it.”

“But why?” Lilly scratched her head. Adult relationships were a mystery to her. How could someone like something and stop liking it the next day?”

“Because…” The spirit pondered. “Because I knew him too well. I could already imagine how my life would be with him. It was boring. And then, another guy came into my life. He came from a village. He was shy and meek. Sensible too. I liked that a lot. So I broke up with my first boyfriend and got together with him.”

“Since you liked the second guy, did you spend the rest of your life with him then?” asked Lilly.

The spirit shook her head. “No, we broke up after a month.”

“Why?” Lilly was stumped.

“He was too meek. Too clingy.”

Lilly was confused. The spirit dated the second guy because he was meek. But she also broke up with him because he was meek. What?

“And then?” It was Pablo’s turn to ask questions.

“After I broke up with him, I craved attention again. I started thinking that perhaps the first boyfriend I had wasn’t that bad. I tried to reconcile with him. But then, I ran into my senior. He was outgoing and warm.”

“And you got together with him?” Lilly didn’t need to predict to know that.
