Chapter 136 I’ll Teach Him a Lesson
Jenny left the hospital at eight in the evening, dragging her exhausted body to Stephanie. “Why are you looking for me so late at night? Is it good or bad news?”
“What do you mean, good or bad news? I just thought since we hadn’t seen each other in a while, I’d invite you to dinner.” Stephanie was feeling a little hapless. She didn’t know Jenny got off work so late.
Unfortunately, Jenny was unmoved. She didn’t seem to be touched at all. “I thought you had forgotten. about me since you got yourself a boyfriend.”
Once knowing that a man now existed in Stephanie’s life, Jenny understood why she was busy all the time, so she did not ask her out as often to avoid feeling upset.
Stephanie didn’t continue the conversation, and it made Jenny suspect something. “What? Did you fight? You guys broke up?”
“What do you mean broke up? We were never together.” Stephanie smiled bitterly, her words filled with pain.
Jenny was stunned. “It’s been so long, though. What have you been doing?”
“He didn’t want to be with me officially. What can I do about it?” Stephanie had already said and done everything that she could, but all she had received was a refusal to take the next step.
What did he take her for?
Jenny frowned as if understanding something. “Did he want you to be his secret lover?”
The moment those words left her mouth, emotions surged in Jenny’s chest. Stephanie pulled her back.” He didn’t say anything like that.”
“What did he say, then?” Jenny said, refusing to let the matter rest.
Stephanie smiled bitterly. “Nothing.”
He had not clarified their relationship, nor had he shared what he wanted for their future. He was flaky, and Stephanie did not feel secure with him.

Loved the novel!! Hated the ending. It felt rushed to get it finished. I hope there is a sequel. There is a ton of potential for one....
The adds are getting worse! I shouldn't have to see porn to read a book...
