Chapter 151 Fanfiction and Fallout

Finished

Lewis followed behind Colton. It wasn’t until they had left Eliza’s ce that Lewis finally spoke slowly.

“You didn’t need to get so worked up. So we’re not going to the beach anymore?”

“Go where? Didn’t you hear what Eliza just said? We’re not hanging out anymore!”

“You’re the one who went overboard.” Lewis raised an eyebrow. “I’ll bet anything you’re already regretting it.”

Colton’s face darkened. “Anyone who regrets it is a damn loser!”

With that, he stormed down the stairs.

iIt’s /iijust /iia /iiwoman/ii! /i

Like Nn and Henry would really stop being friends with him over Eliza?

Watching Colton stomp off despite obviously caring, Lewis couldn’t help but shake his head.

Colton was always like this–if he didn’t care about someone, they wouldn’t even be able to get under his skin like this.

He definitely saw Eliza as a friend. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said any of that.

Back inside, the room had fallen silent for a while.

Eliza said, “Guess the trip’s off. Sorry for putting you all in this awkward position.”

“I don’t mind, but Colton…” Henry paused before continuing. “Colton maye off arrogant, but he really values his friends. This must’ve just been a misunderstanding. He probably just wanted you to exin things. Give it a few days, and he’lle around. I’ll make sure he apologizes.”

“It’s fine. Honestly, I wouldn’t believe me either.”

Someone like Tyson showing up personally to scout a partner–most people wouldn’t be able to resist the temptation of a top–tier business school.

Colton’s suspicion was understandable.

Meeting Colton and the others from ss 6 had been a total fluke anyway. If Colton couldn’t ept her, then it was better they go their separate ways.

Henry bwas /bquiet for a moment. Then he said, “I’m going after him. Wait here for me.”

He dashed out the door before Eliza could stop him.

Eliza was about to call out, but Nn spoke from behind her.

“Let him go.”

Colton and Lewis didn’t know. But Nn did.

The reason Eliza was able to buy that apartment was that she’d earned every cent of it herself.

She hadn’t taken a bribe from anyone.

“You believe me?b” /b

“Why wouldn’t I?b” /b

Nn said, “I know you and Colton aren’t the same type of people. And the way he talked to you–that was on him.”

“Colton’s your close friend, though! Aren’t you worried people will say you’d ditch your bros for a girlb?/bb” /b

“I’m just calling it like I see it.”

Nn looked seriously at her.

Eliza had just been joking, but seeing how earnest he was, she patted him on the shoulder.

“Rx, I was only kidding.”

By noon, Henry had dragged Colton to the airport.

Lewis stood nearby, clearly enjoying the show.

Colton walked over to Eliza with a scowl, clearly reluctant, and said, “I overreacted earlier. Henry told me the ce bis /byours–you paid for it yourself.”

“Oh.”

Eliza crossed her arms. “So when you came to my cest time, you were already suspicious? Thought Tyson gave it to me?”

Colton’s expression darkened.

Eliza added on purpose, “Wow. I’m impressed. You actually held it in and didn’t confront me that day?”

Colton turned his head away.

Lewismentedzily, “He threw a whole fit after we left this morning. Took me ages to calm him down. How are you two going to thank me?”

The more Lewis said, the darker Colton’s face got.

“Why are you telling her everything?”

“We’re all friends here. What’s the big deal?b” /b

Lewis turned to Eliza. “Honestly, Colton cares about you. Seeing you stand your ground like that really

messed him up.”

“Lewis! Stop spreading lies about me!”

Lewis leaned in and whispered in Eliza’s car.

“Colton’s never liked getting close to girls. You’re the first. That says a lot, you know.”

Eliza’s eyes

widened in realization. “So all those rumors at school about Colton liking guys… they’re true?”

“Who said that? What kind of nonsense is that?!b” /b

Colton had never heard anything like that before.

Eliza replied seriously, “It was on the school forum. Someone even writes fanfiction about you and Lewis.”

“What?!b” /b

Colton’s expression turned stormy.

He immediately turned to Lewis. “Why didn’t you tell me about this?!”

That exined why Lewis always browsed the school forum when he was bored.

Someone was writing fanfic about them—and this guy was enjoying it?!

Lewis pulled out his phone, dead serious. “It’s up to chapter 184. I think it’s pretty entertaining.”

“Entertaining my assb!/b”

Colton snatched the phone.

The screen showed thetest update:

“Colton pinned Lewis against the wall, veins bulging on his hand as he struggled to contain the emotions churning inside him. His eyes burned with raw desire. He couldn’t bear toy a finger on the man in front of him. In a voice thick with anguish, Colton said, “Lewis, do you hate me that much? You won’t even go to the same college as me?“”
