After the Eight Years of Love I Gave Up novel Chapter 53

Love Story6 - Chapter 2

Within a couple of days, rumors started spreading wildly in our social circle.

Cassius was pursuing a sophomore girl from the performing arts academy. A young, delicate, and naive girl.

His pursuit was always grand and shocking.

Just like when he pursued me years ago, he wanted to announce it to the world, Lavishly showering her with houses, cars, and jewelry as he pleased The young girl had never experienced such extravagance and fell for him in just a few days.

At a gathering organized by friends, Cassius brought her along directly.

As soon as they entered, everyone fell silent.

Several of the girls who were close to me looked at me with concern.

I smiled, "Why did everyone stop talking? Why are you all looking at me?"

Cassius sat down with his arm around the girl, finally looking at me properly, "Everly, since we have this opportunity today, I'll just say it outright."

"Alright, go ahead."

"These years of on-and-off have been quite meaningless, and our feelings have long faded."

I gripped my hands tightly, the ring on my middle finger digging deep into my flesh, Yet I seemed unable to feel the pain.

"Lyra is young and pure. I really like her and don't want to hurt her."
