NovelApexChapter 1472:
“You should count yourself lucky, Melvin.” Nyla flashed him another sugary smile, her words laced with subtle
digs. “Jessica stayed single until you calong, but she’s the type who gets obsessed.”
“If her family hadn't stepped in, she’d still be chasing after that sguy, | bet,” Bianca added, unable to resist
piling on.
Jessica stared at them, caught off guard. A scowl formed on her face. “And where did you get that information,
anyway? Who told you | liked someone?”
In reality, only a select few from her school days ever knew about her feelings for Melvin. Even Gerard, who had
been close, only caught on after graduation.
The girls went quiet, exchanging glances. Finally, one shrugged and said, “Oh, it wasn’t that hard to figure out.”
The truth was, they were bluffing.
No one there actually knew she’d spent all those years liking Melvin.
All they wanted was for Melvin to believe Jessica didn’t really care for him—that she had only rushed into a
relationship to avoid being alone. That way, if things fell apart between Jessica and Melvin, they'd have a chance
to step in themselves.
Honestly, every single one of them was smitten with Melvin’s appearance.
“Tell us, how's that old crush of yours doing these days?” Nyla pressed, refusing to let the subject drop. “If he
and Melvin were standing right here, which one would you choose?”

Jessica's lips curled in annoyance. She shot Nyla a glare that said everything—her question was nothing but
trouble.
It didn’t take long for Nyla to realize her real motive had been spotted.
Jessica just thought it was immature.
Still, Nyla kept up her delicate smile, but her focus was clearly fixed on Melvin now.
Irritation bubbled inside Jessica.
“Why not take both?” Jessica retorted without missing a beat.
Bianca and the rest went wide-eyed at her answer, all eyes turning toward Melvin for his reaction.

When he didn’t even flinch, their doubts only deepened. Surely, if he really cared, he would have shown some
sign of jealousy.
“You really do have good taste,” Nyla said with a teasing lilt. “If it were me, I'd pick Melvin and no one else. Why
settle for less?”
