Chapter 164
Chapter 164:
He took the bus again, hoping to meet Ava there as he had the day before.
But it seemed yesterday had been a lucky day. Today, she might have taken her father’s car instead of waiting at the bus stop near her house.
Ian arrived at the university and walked across campus like a king.
No one dared to question him since yesterday, when he had beaten a boy hard enough to warn others to keep their mouths shut.
He noticed groups of students gathered around their phones, looking at something with curiosity.
He frowned. What could be causing such interest? Maybe new rumors were spreading across campus.
A boy walked past him, eyes glued to his phone. Ian snatched the phone from him and looked at what everyone was watching.
His calm, curious expression gradually darkened when he saw a post with several photos.
The photos showed Ava and Luke together, having dinner and clearly enjoying each other’s company.
Ian was aware of their friendship, but what caught his attention was a video attached to the post.
He played the video and raised his brows.
In it, Luke said to Ava, “I like you, Ava p>
Ian was about to throw the phone in anger when the boy next to him grabbed his hand.
“Please, it’s my new phone p>
Ian tossed the phone back to the boy and stormed toward the lobby with a furious expression.
He proposed to her last night. So she was right when she said she liked him and he liked her too?
Ava walked onto the campus and noticed people glancing at her.

She rolled her eyes and murmured, “What now p>
She tried to ignore them, but one of the boys approached and asked, “Ava, are you really with Luke? Is there any chance you’d reconsider p>
Ava was stunned. A surprised look appeared on her face, unsure how this boy had heard about her and Luke.
“What do you mean?†she asked, giving him a confused look.
The boy handed her his phone and showed her a video.
She watched Luke proposing to her. It sounded a little loud at that moment because she was about to leave the café, and he was trying to stop her.
“So, is this the talk of the town now?†she asked, raising her head to face the boy.
He scratched the back of his neck and said,
“You have a lot of other options, you know. They might keep their distance because of your brother, even though we’ve seen you and Luke together. He’s really protective of you p>
Hearing him, Ava realized how Luke had defended her in front of Ian. A lot had happened yesterday—the fight at university, and then Ian fighting again later that night.
Though last night had been hard for her, she didn’t want to think about it anymore.
