A self–deprecating smile crossed my face. Every time I forced myself to not be overwhelmed by my feelings, Nicholas set up traps. he considered to be “quite good” and “refreshing” to lure me in.
If I were to be lured in, so be it. We were adults, after all. I could just treat everything as a game, but I couldn’t accept that it was all for Claudia’s sake.
Nicholas toyed with me for Claudia’s sake, simply finding me to be quite refreshing in the process. It turned out that he could be even more pretentious than I was.
I thought I had orchestrated a meticulous scheme. I got together with Nicholas to provoke Claudia as I wanted to bring her to justice, but his scheme outsmarted mine. His chivalry, gentleness, and confession toward me were all part of his scheme.
Since I didn’t have genuine feelings for him either, I figured I should be unfazed. It was only fair. But why were waves of anguish crashing down on me now? It was as if I could hear my flesh and veins being torn apart within my body.
“Really?” Jasmine’s coquettish voice rang out. “Claudia is your sister, but you’re sending her abroad for a woman you find refreshing to be with?
