“I’m sorry,” Jade apologized. “I thought you liked Wyatt, which is why I acted the way I did before…”
Luma suddenly remembered something and intempted Jade. “You said you confessed to Wyatt. Were you suddenly distant because your confession was rejected? Or did Wyatt say something to you at that time?”
Given Jade’s personality, she wouldn’t hate Luna just because she had been rejected. It had to be something Wyatt had said.
“Maybe Wyatt misunderstood you,” came Jade’s reply. “Anyway, it’s all in the past. There’s no use in bringing it up.” She was clearly embarrassed by the memory and did not want to talk about it further
Luna didn’t want to let things slide that easily. She needed to ensure that Jade saw Wyatt for who he truly was and stop liking him. She didal want fade to fall victim to Mia’s schemes again.
After all, Jade had helped Luna before, and she was so beautiful–it would be a real shame if someone hurt her.
It was one thing if she had not known before, but now that she did, she couldn’t just turn a blind eye.
Grabbing Jade’s hand, she insisted, “Whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, I hope you can clear things up. Some things may not be what you think they are!” “Yeah. I agree. It’s better to clear things up to avoid further misunderstandings that could affect our friendship. Remember how well we got along before you joined Professor Hanley’s team?
Nicole never dared say this before,
, afraid Luna might think they were jealous of her.
But now that Luna had left the team and was somewhat vague about her reasons for leaving, Nicole felt it was necessary to clear things up.
Jade mentioned the confession again and felt it was necessary to get to the bottom of it. After all, it had changed Jade’s impression of Luna in the first place. Luna was someone who took time to warm up to others, and she ignosed her because of their jealousy at her joining Wilson’s team.
Yas also reserved. If they had not mentioned this, she would have always thought they had Afterall, many people had said as much in the dorm back then.
“I agree. We should clear things up!” Talia chimed in
“When you joined Professor Hanley’s team, we were genuinely happy for you, as it was a good thing. If it weren’t for Jade’s confession being rejected, we wouldn’t have distanced ourselves from you.
“After that incident, many people privately gossiped that we stopped hanging out with you because we were jealous of you. It’s really unfair!”
Telia’s words left Luna confused. “So, what exactly happened the day Jade confessed?”
The thure of them exchanged glances, and in the end, Jade spoke up. “After the school dance that day, I went to confess to Wyatt. At that time, I had liked him for a whole semester,
“Originally, I didn’t have the courage to confess, but you always said he was gentle and kind, never rude to anyone. I thought someone like him wouldn’t say anything hurtful, even if he didn’t like me. But that day…”
As Jade Lecalled Wyatt’s words, she still felt her face burning with embarrassment. However, seeing the sincerity in her roommates expressions, she steeled herself and decided to continue
“That day, his exact words were-“I know you. You’re that superior, condescending roommate of Luna’s. What gives you the courage to say this to me?
If you had even half of Luna’s qualities, I wouldn’t have spoken to you so harshly. Don’t think just because you’re pretty and come from a wealthy family, you can bully her at will.
Luna will always have us to protect her. Keep your distance from her, but try to leam from her sheyould never say something that would lead nowhere, like what you just did!”
