Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 584

I couldn't say that out loud, of course. Flaunting one's achievement was the quickest way to lose friends. The ex-classmate did not whisper, so Felix, sitting next to me, overheard everything.

If this had happened in the past when he was dating Lilac, he would have retorted right away and drawn the line between him and me. But things had changed. He was no longer the lovesick boy, and his relationship with Lilac had already turned into a joke.

Likewise, I was no longer the meek girl who was insulted in public for her unrequited love for him. When such an embarrassing past was brought up, I assumed Felix would jump in to save face. Or he could just stand up and leave.

Alas, time not only healed the pain from the past but also changed a person. Felix's eyes froze when he heard what our ex-classmate said, and his expression darkened.

Right when I thought he was about to throw a tantrum, the rage on him vanished. His slender fingers reached out to the glass, and he took a sip. Then, he placed it back on the table and spaced out. What a surprise.

The ex-classmate was waiting for my response. He tilted his body and looked at Felix and me.

Wait! When did I ever date Felix? Who was spreading misinformation?

"Wait. This is a lie. Did I ever give off the vibe that I was dating Felix? I clarified my relationship with him in front of everyone in my final year. What makes you think that I'm dating him? We've never dated each other."

"Also, it's the 21st century. Marital arrangement is no longer a thing. All of you know Lilac is Felix's girlfriend. Stop thinking that I'm his girlfriend. And don't spread lies because the consequences could be disastrous."

The atmosphere tensed up. Everyone looked at Felix and me, wondering if what I said was true. Other than his clenched jaw, Felix maintained his aloofness. I also made sure I delivered the speech with utmost seriousness.

I hoped this could convince them that I was telling the truth.
