NovelApexChapter 1473:
The three ladies were dumbfounded. What did he just say?
“Oh, right,” Jessica added, brushing her hair back, warmth dancing in her eyes. “Melvin’s been my crush for
years. Tookforever, but | finally won him over.”
They were stunned. Definitely not the answer they were hoping for.
The whole group sat there, awkwardly sipping their drinks, unable to find the words.
Half an hour later, the conversation was still shallow and scattered. Jessica stuck to fruit juice, swirling it
absentmindedly.
Midway through, she got up to use the restroom. Behind her, the sound of heels followed.
Jessica glanced over her shoulder, unimpressed. “What is this, Nyla? You tagging along now?”
“What, you own the restroom?” Nyla shot back, folding her arms in challenge.
Jessica didn’t answer. With a sigh, she pushed open a stall door.
Nyla sidestepped in front of her, arms crossed and lips curling. “Melvin’s not srandom guy, is he?”
“What's it to you?” Jessica shoved past her and shut the stall door firmly.

Nyla leaned her weight against the divider, her voice floating through the gap. “Don’t play dumb. You're a
Prescott. No way you'd crush on someone for years unless he’s a big deal.”
Jessica kept quiet.
Still, having a full conversation through a restroom stall was uncomfortable.
“Spill,” Nyla pressed. “No way a guy like that is ordinary.”
“Curious? Go ask him yourself,” Jessica snapped, mentally noting never to share a restroom break with this
woman again. “With your looks, I'm sure he’ll love the attention and tell you everything.”
“Don’t get cute,” Nyla said, dead serious. “I'm telling you right now. I'm going to take him.”
“Oh,” Jessica replied, her tone flat as a cutting board. If Melvin was that easy to steal, she wouldn't have
bothered in the first place.

“You don’t believe me?” Nyla blinked, clearly not expecting that reaction.
“Oh, | believe you,” Jessica said smoothly, turning on the tap. “You could probably have three boyfriends by
tomorrow night.”
But none of them would be Melvin.
“Get it,” Nyla said, flipping her hair with practiced flair. “You think your pretty face is enough to keep him.”
Jessica calmly dried her hands with a paper towel, refusing to give her the satisfaction of a response.
