Chapter 414
Sasha rolled her eyes and said, “I’ve been very kind not to slap the both of you. Shane, I’m not sure what both of you are trying to say, but what’s certain is that you may not have jobs, but I do. “Hence, I do not have time for your love games, and I am not interested in being a sacrifice in your love story. Please don’t get me involved in your relationship!”
Sasha couldn’t understand why they were so relentless. She continued, “I left the social circle you were in just to keep a distance from you. Did that not clearly communicate my attitude already?” Shane’s expression fell. He asked, “Are you sure you’ve never had feelings for me?”
At that moment, Sasha felt relieved that she had never developed any feelings for Shane. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to explain herself.
Sasha nodded and said, “If I loved you, why would I pursue Zane and not you?”
After hearing that, Shane looked at Zane.
Zane calmly said, “It’s because I’m outstanding.”
Sasha continued, “Later, Zane rejected me. I thought his girlfriend was a good person, so I started to hang out with his girlfriend. Even then, I never went to you. I thought I was being very clear about my stance.”
In a soft voice, Jenny asked, “What if you think doing that can make him love you even more?”
Sasha had mentally prepared herself, but she was in disbelief when she heard what Jenny said.
I said, “Disappearing from his world and never contacting him… Did it seem like Sasha was using push and pull tactics in that relationship?”
Jenny nodded and said, “Yeah.”
“If that’s what you think, why didn’t you stop contacting Shane for as long as Sasha stopped contacting him? Wouldn’t that work out?” I asked gently. Jenny didn’t know how to respond to that.
I continued and said, “That would make Shane love you more, wouldn’t it?”
Sasha added on, saying, “I won’t contact him for the next few years.”
With a smile, I asked Jenny, “Did you hear that? Sasha is bold and charismatic, which is why Shane
couldn’t let her go. If you learn from Sasha’s ways, wouldn’t Shane love you more?”
Jenny turned pale and gazed at Shane. When Shane saw how fragile Jenny seemed, he felt protective of Jenny.
Shane remarked, “Are the both of you proud that you are bullying a weak woman like this?”
I felt the need to correct him, so l said, “We came here for lunch, as usual. You two were the ones who came questioning us unreasonably. We were just trying to defend
ourselves. Furthermore…
“I was just bouncing off what she said. If you think that what I said was too offensive, wouldn’t that mean that you think that your girlfriend’s statements are problematic?” Then, I smiled.
Shane didn’t know how to respond
to my question. While trying to change the topic, he looked at Zane and said, “Mr. Huxham, don’t you think it’s rude for your woman to be making so much noise in public?”
“She’s my girlfriend, not an accessory. I don’t need her to depend on me,” Zane said, not giving in to Shane’s question.
Zane continued, “That is why she can live without being wary of my opinions. She can express her emotions freely. I will not interfere with that. Also…”
