Chapter 1778


    "Uh..." Adrienne was startled again, and she felt a pang of difort. She did not ponder where the


    difort came from and argued, "But, Jeff has a girl he likes."


    "Do you know whether the girl likes him back?" Of course, Eunice knew that Jefferson liked a girl.


    The girl was right in front of her; only the girl could give her the answer she wanted.


    "I... I don''t think she likes him." Adrienne remembered that she had once met the girl Jefferson liked.


    She had seen the girl pour water on Jefferson in front of so many people in Bruce''s restaurant


    previously. If the girl liked him, she would not have done it.


    "You don''t like him?" Eunice''s eyes lit up in an instant but she didn''t dare to believe it. "Adrienne, tell


    me clearly. You really don''t have romantic feelings for Jefferson?"


    "What..." Adrienne was taken aback and asked in a daze, "Eunice, we are talking about the girl that


    Jeff likes. Why did you direct the conversation to me?"


    This time, Eunice was the stunned one. Could it be that Adrienne did not know that the girl who


    Jefferson liked was her?


    However, Eunice reacted quickly, at least faster than Adrienne, who was still confused about the


    situation. "Well, we won''t talk about the girl who Jefferson likes. Adrienne, tell me, do you like


    Jefferson?"


    Adrienne uttered," I..."


    Did she like Jefferson?


    She didn''t know either. She only knew that she hated Jefferson for bullying her every day. But if he


    were not around, she would be afraid never to see him again. Her feelings were contradictory. She


    couldn''t figure it out after a few tries. Hence, she didn''t want to think about it anymore.


    Eunice hoped to hear that Adrienne would say she didn''t like Jefferson. Therefore, before Adrienne


    gave an answer, she interrupted, "Adrienne, I can tell you with certainty that I like Jefferson."


    "I... I know that you like him. You have just told me." Adrienne felt ufortable. She had the exact


    uneasy feeling when she had heard that Eunice was going to return a few days before.


    Eunice continued, "Adrienne, I came back this time for an answer. If you like Jefferson, I will leave


    and never appear in front of you all


    again. If you don''t like him, I will have nothing to worry about. I will do my best to pursue him."


    "Eunice, it''s your business that you like him. It has nothing to do with whether I like him or not."


    Adrienne frowned at Eunice''s phrasing.


    Eunice carried on, "You are my best friend. Before making any choice, I will consider your feelings


    first."


    "Eunice..." Adrienne did not want to ept Eunice''s point because she did not have the energy and


    love tomit to a rtionship. For the past two years, she only cared about looking for her


    parents'' murderer. She rarely had the energy to think about other people and things.


    Eunice pried further, "Adrienne, I''ll ask you again. Do you like Jefferson?"


    It hade to this point.


    Could Adrienne say that she liked him? Adrienne wondered.


    Furthermore, she didn''t know whether she liked Jefferson or not.


    Adrienne stammered, "I... I don''t think I like him."


    Eunice was delighted and cheered, "Adrienne, since you don''t like Jefferson, I will pursue him


    without worries."

    "Okay..." Adrienne nodded, still bbergasted.


    Upon hearing this, Jefferson really wanted to kick the door and interrogate Adrienne, but he did not


    do so this time.


    He turned around and strode away without hesitation.


    He left, but Eunice and Adrienne were still talking.


    "But Eunice, I want to make it clear that your feeling for Jefferson is your concern, you don''t have to


    think about my feelings. Of course, whether I like Jefferson is my concern and I won''t consider your


    feelings. If you want to pursue him, it doesn''t depend on whether I like him or not." After a long time,


    Adrienne finally saw through it. "He is not an object. He is a human and has the right to choose the


    girl he likes. We should respect his choice."


    It never urred to Eunice that Adrienne would say such a thing. "Adrienne, I..."


    Adrienne smiled as if she felt relieved. "Eunice, I am selfish. I can''t consider others'' feelings over


    mine. I will set up a meeting for you and Jefferson, and this is thest time I will help you to ask him


    out."


    "Adrienne..." Adrienne had changed as Eunice expected. She was no longer the little girl who


    needed their protection. She had her own thoughts and stand. Fortunately, she had promised to ask


    Jefferson out for Eunice.


    As long as Adrienne invited Jefferson, it was not important whether Jefferson would see Eunice or


    not. Eunice''s n was to let Jefferson understand that no matter how many years he had pursued


    Adrienne, Adrienne would never reciprocate his feelings.


    After Jefferson knew that, even if he would not give up, it would more or less have some influence


    on him.


    If, if...


    "Forget it, there should be no if, no man can withstand such a test of love," Eunice thought.


    The gathering ended on a bad note because Jefferson left without telling anyone.


    Before leaving, Freya stopped Eunice and invited her out. "Eunice, we haven''t seen each other for a


    long time. Why don''t we find another ce to sit down and have a cup of coffee to talk about the old


    days?"


    Eunice looked at Adrienne, who had followed Freddy to leave, and replied, "Why don''t we call


    Adrienne together? Among the seven of us, only three of us are girls. We can''t just leave Adrienne


    behind."


    "I just asked Adrienne about it. She still has work to do." After Adrienne came back from the


    bathroom, her mood was off. Freya noticed it and asked Freddy to send her back to rest first.


    Moreover, Freya wanted to talk to Eunice about Jefferson, and it would be best for Adrienne not to


    be there.


    "Didn''t she say that she''s free today? What else could she do?" Eunice asked.


    "Eunice, I just want to talk to you alone. Why don''t you give me the chance? Since you don''t want to


    be with me, I''ll make it short."


    "Freya, we are best friends. How can I not want to be with you? Let''s go elsewhere."


    "Eunice, we don''t need to go elsewhere. I just want to ask if you have given up on Jefferson."


    Eunice looked at Freya in disbelief. "Freya, why should I give up on Jefferson?"


    Freya answered, "You and I both know that Jefferson only has eyes for Adrienne. No matter what


    you do, he won''t have affection for you. Why will you waste your youth and feelings for a man who


    doesn''t love you?"


    "I shouldn''t waste my youth and feelings for a man who doesn''t love me, then what about


    Jefferson?" Eunice suddenly raised her voice, "Adrienne doesn''t love him at all. Isn''t he wasting his


    youth and feelings for a woman


    who doesn''t love him?"
