CHAPTER 58: CHAPTER 58: LET’S COMPETE FAIRLY!

A month, it really is quite long.

However, love is something she will never believe in this lifetime.

"Consider today’s kiss as a consolation kiss, you truly have won. I spent a full month, yet couldn’t make you agree to be my boyfriend."

She still raised the corner of her eye, proud, but devoid of emotion.

Julian Fairchild felt the Maeve Lane before him was extremely unfamiliar.

Yet, he was also acutely aware that this was Maeve Lane.

Inherently cold-hearted.

She was always like this.

It was him who was blinded by her obedient behavior these past days.

No matter how long she can endure, how long can she really endure?

Julian Fairchild leaned close to her ear, his eyes glinting with cold light, "Maeve Lane, I have to thank you for making me sober up."

Maeve Lane carelessly uttered an "Mm", pushed him away, and proactively distanced herself from him, "You’ve said ’stay away from me’ so many times, and now, as you wish."

...

"Hey, did you hear? Maeve Lane seems to have moved on to pursue someone else again!"

"I know, but your info’s wrong. I heard it’s the guy who’s pursuing Maeve Lane instead, super handsome I’m telling you, over six feet tall, wealthy family, treats Maeve Lane so well, constantly checking up on her."

"Really? But didn’t Maeve Lane always chase after Julian Fairchild before? Why did she suddenly stop?"

"Oh well, what other reason could there be? Couldn’t catch him, obviously. Julian doesn’t seem to like Maeve Lane’s type, does he."

"..."

They were engrossed in their conversation, completely unaware that the protagonist of their discussion was sitting not far from them.

Julian Fairchild sat nearby self-studying, but couldn’t focus on the contents of the book at all.

Henry Hughes happened to come in, and also overheard the conversation.

The two girls suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my God, Henry Hughes!"

Then quickly covered their mouths.

Everyone at Aurelia University knew Henry Hughes and Julian Fairchild, these two handsome guys are good friends, practically inseparable, so they began searching for Julian Fairchild’s presence.

While looking, they spotted Julian Fairchild gripping a pen.

The two girls awkwardly greeted him, but didn’t wait for any response and left this socially awkward scene promptly.

The tall man didn’t enter the classroom but watched the girls leave before speaking, "What they said, is it true?"

After the competition, Henry Hughes hadn’t returned to the dormitory, and asked for leave from the basketball club, hence was unaware of what had transpired between Julian Fairchild and Maeve Lane.

Julian Fairchild’s face showed no emotion, "Yes."

"I think you’re not good enough for her."

Henry Hughes was frank, "Maeve Lane used to care for you so much, your attitude towards her, isn’t that hurtful? Now that she’s gone, it’s better, at least she doesn’t have to endure mistreatment from you."

"Is that so?" Julian Fairchild ambiguously retorted, "She would never let herself be mistreated, she doesn’t even have a heart."

"And you can still say something like that now?"

In the end, it was Henry Hughes who conceded first, having been friends with Julian Fairchild for years, not once did Julian apologize first in an argument; having him concede is more difficult than ascending to heaven.

He walked to Julian Fairchild’s side, "We’ve argued for so long, shouldn’t you be over it by now? If you like her, then chase her, I’ll give you a chance, let’s compete fairly, okay?"

"What do you mean?" Julian Fairchild frowned.

"What else could it mean, Maeve Lane isn’t chasing you anymore, if I pursue her I won’t have that guilt, now we both stand on the same starting line, whoever wins her over does so by their own skills."
