Redmption 325
Hearing this explanation, I felt a pang
of sympathy. Lisa already had a hard time with her unrequited love, and if it weren't for my insistence, she would never have reached out to Keith on h
However, Keith being so blunt about it must have hurt her deeply. Not only did he not reciprocate her feelings, but he also
seemed to be hurting her openly.
Just as I was about to speak up, he interrupted her. "I'm not afraid of trouble, and you can only trouble me.
Huh?
What did he mean?
I was confused, and Lisa's expression showed she was equally perplexed. "Keith-”
"Aren't you the one who said you liked me?" He interrupted her again.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Lisa remained silent.
“Since you like me, why are you attracting other men and accepting their affection?" His words suddenly made everything clear.
He was jealous, and he was being very straightforward about it.
Had they not confessed their feelings to each other yet?
Could this be his way of confessing?
I felt a rush of excitement as I looked at Lisa. She seemed stunned by Keith's directness. "Keith, are you

I clenched my fists as I watched Lisa excitedly, hoping she would finally throw herself into the arms of her beloved Keith.
However, she just stood there without showing any reaction at all.
Was she overwhelmed with happiness?
The awkward silence stretched on for nearly half a minute. Just as I was thinking whether to say something, he broke the silence. "Lisa, why aren't you
"Right, I got it," Lisa replied coolly.
I was stunned, almost doubting if this was the Lisa I knew. Was she channeling Brandon's cold demeanor?
The few words she replied with were totally in Brandon's style.
Was she too happy to react properly?
Just as I was getting frustrated with her response and worried that he might be disappointed or angry Keith added, "You're my girlfriend now. You can only accept my flowers and eat the takeout I send.”
Lisa nodded obediently. "Got it.""
I was utterly baffled, witnessing what felt like a low-IQ romantic exchange between two highly educated individuals.
I wondered if my presence was
causing them to hold back, so I quietly slipped away. However, as soon as I stepped outside, I walked straight into a solid chest.
