Virginity in second marriages novel Chapter 1617

She bit her lower lip, her heart twitching like a knife.

She turned her head to leave, only to run into Livia, who had returned, and their eyes met, Livia's eyes held a little, probably because she had heard Michela and Genara's conversation earlier.

Angelica pursed her lips and took a step forward, just before Livia grabbed her by the wrist and ran downstairs.

The two stopped in an unlit corner, with Livia's back to them.

"Livia?"

Angelica looked back at her and could not help but approach her and lean on her shoulder, addictively, "When are you going to finish studying? We haven't had dinner together in ages, I miss you so much Livia."

Those soft, sticky words made Livia's heart leap, and she had been avoiding Angelica for some time, not because she hated her, but because Michela and Genara always picked on her if she stayed with her for long, and only recently had she recovered from the facial injury of some time ago.

But after a while, Livia felt free to be alone, so she stopped thinking about being with Angelica, and today she did not expect Angelica to come back so soon.

It was a bit awkward for the two to meet, but she was afraid that Angelica would talk and be overheard by the two, so just as she was about to speak, Livia pulled her away and ran off.

Thinking about it, Livia avoided Angelica's inclination and then turned her head.

"Our studies will probably become more intense, I've been working a lot lately and realized that many of the subjects I didn't know before can be quite easy, my mom works a lot and always wants me to get good grades so I can't slow down."

At the end of the sentence, Livia's words became slow: "I'm sorry."

"Ah, it's okay." Angelica shook her head with relief and reassured Livia in passing, "Auntie definitely wants you to do well, so do your best and when you get good grades, we'll have dinner together and I won't bother you."

"Well, how are you?"

"Good, all right."

"Well then, I remembered I left something in the library, why don't you go up first."

"Ah, what did you leave? Why don't I go with you?"

"No." Livia quickly shrugged her off, as if by reflex, "I will go alone."

The smile in Angelica's eyes disappeared, "Well, be safe."

"Yes."

After Livia left, Angelica looked over her shoulder for a long time, her hands falling to her sides, biting her lower lip as she tugged at the corner of her coat.

I don't know if it was just her, but she always had the impression that Livia had been avoiding her lately, had she done something wrong?

No, no, Livia and she had known each other for a long time, since we were children, her mother had high expectations of her for the future, so Livia herself was under pressure, it was best to wait until she finished her exams.

With this in mind, Angelica quickly broke free again, resumed her smile and turned to go back to her dormitory.

Fearing that she would hear those unpleasant words again, Angelica made a deliberate noise when she returned so that the people inside the dormitory could hear her, and when she pushed the door open none of them spoke, but they looked toward her when they heard the sound.

"Angelica?"

"Angelica you're back, why did you come back so early today, didn't you go for a run?"

The two asked her excitedly, as if the person who had just said something bad was not theirs at all, and Angelica realized for the first time that people could be so pretentious and hypocritical in the extreme.

Thinking about it, she did not respond and went straight in.

Genara and Michela looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.

Angelica's personality was not one of those things like I don't like you but I have to pretend to smile with you for the sake of a relationship, no, she simply could not do that.
