Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 She Has a Partner!

Despite being a new apprentice like Jane, the seniors were all circling Cora alone, while Jane's side was practically similar to a deserted land.

However, Jane still didn't think that she was not popular, or that it was wrong for her to be cold and aloof.

She assumed that it was probably because those seniors knew that she was the only girl in the Yoris family and that she had already carried the status of Byron's fiancée. That was why they didn't dare to get close to her.

As for their attraction toward Cora, they probably weren't genuinely attracted to her. They must be thinking that Cora was easy to trick, being that she was of an ordinary family background.

Having such a thought made her feel slightly better.

At the same time, under the seniors' incessant questioning, Cora replied with a smile, "I have a boyfriend."

She seemed to be responding to those seniors, but she was actually looking at Jane.

It was because the boyfriend she mentioned was the same person Jane thought was her fiancé.

However, she didn't directly refer to Byron as her boyfriend. After all, she was aware that Byron didn't consider them to be in a romantic relationship.

When Jane heard Cora's words and looked at her, she also felt that Cora's eyes seemed to contain another meaning.

But she couldn't figure it out for the time being.

As for the boyfriend Cora mentioned, Jane automatically recalled when Tyler said that Cora was his girlfriend during Gideon's birthday banquet, so Jane thought Cora was talking about Tyler.

After hearing Cora's straightforward clarification that she had a boyfriend, some seniors inevitably felt a little disappointed.

"Ah, I knew it. Such a beautiful girl wouldn't be single."

But some continued to joke with Cora, "Then do you mind having a hookup?"

Cora couldn't help laughing. "Guys, stop making fun of me. I can be a two-timer when I'm unhappy, you know."

When Jane heard it, she thought it was a bit ridiculous.

After all, the fact that Cora could get along with Carter after she broke up with Eason was the best evidence that she was a two-timer.

But Jane had come up and volunteered herself. "Just let me drive Dr. Lane back. It'll be more convenient for us girls."

No one could refute her suggestion, so Cora got into her car.

On the way back, the two remained silent for a long time. It seemed that they were holding back from something out of politeness, but in fact, it was a secret contest between both sides.

It wasn't until the car almost reached the section of the LO apartment where Cora lived that Jane finally asked her politely while also restraining herself, "Dr. Lane, I'm curious as to why you accepted my grandfather's invitation to be his apprentice."

"Probably because of passion," Cora replied with a smile.

No matter how one looked at her smile, they would find a bit of hypocrisy in it.

Jane only looked at Cora through the rearview mirror. "I don't think it's because of passion."

"Then what do you think my reason would be, Dr. Yoris?" Cora said, and she didn't avert her gaze.

Inside the cramped car, the two girls seemed to inexplicably spark a flame when they looked at each other through the rearview mirror.
