The 99th Game Was Mine All Along novel Chapter 73

Chapter

Gabriella’s POV 

I was just leaving the lab when Ryder Gomez, my labortory classmate, blocked my path

Come on, Gabriella, why are you so cold? Just give me one chance!” 

Other students gathered around, eager for drama

I sighed, facing my persistent admirer. Look, Ryder, like I’ve told you a hundred times- I’m focused on my PhD right now. Dating isn’t on my radar.” 

He’d been trying for months, refusing to take no for an answer

Ryder stepped closer, insisting I come to some party he was organizing

Before I could shut him down for the hundredth time, a tall figure stepped between us

Even in a parallel life, I’d recognize him anywhere

Things escalated fast. The guys started shoving each other, and I jumped in to break it up. The last thing I needed was campus police getting involved

Stop it!I yelled at Kayden, pulling him back. What is wrong with you? Did you not get my message?” 

I rejected you too, remember? So what’s with this stalker behavior?” 

And this is between me and Ryder what gives you the right to play bodyguard?” 

Kayden deflated like a punctured balloon

He looked at me with wounded eyes. What gives me the right? How about the fact that I love you?” 

I laughed bitterly, not wanting to make more of a scene. I grabbed his arm and dragged him around the corner of the science building

That’s when I really looked at him. His eyes were redrimmed, like he’d been crying. Six months had aged him years

Gabby, I finally found you. I’m not letting go again.His voice cracked. I know you’re still mad, but f swear I’ll do better.” 

All these years, I thought Charlotte was different this pure, genuine person compared to all those fake socialites. But she was the biggest fake of all. She played me for my money, and that babyit wasn’t even
