Chapter 1183
Vermont did not quite believe Ste’s denial of knowing Spencer. He could tell that something was off
judging by her reaction. It seemed like there was more to them than just ssmates.
He was about to say something when Ste interrupted him, “Let’s go grab some food, Felicity.”
“Okay. Sure,” Felicity replied.

Once the two women left the table, Vermont leaned into Keegan’s ear and whispered, “There’s
something fishy going on with your partner. She’s the type who can’t take her eyes off a handsome guy,
but she barely looks at Spencer. She would even avert her gaze everytime their eyes met. Since when
she has ever been shy around guys?”
Vermont’s words caused Keegan to suspect that something was going on. He had also noticed Ste’s
unusual behavior, but he still chose to defend her for now. “Is she acting shy? I hadn’t noticed. It seems
to me that she doesn’t find him attractive.”
Vermont did not say a word. ‘I didn’t know Keegan could be so protective over Ste,’ he thought. ‘Still,
I think there’s more to the story than what she is letting on.’
At the food section of the wedding, Ste grabbed an egg tart for Felicity with a pair of tongs.
Felicity picked up the pastry and ate it as she asked, “Ste, isn’t Spencer your ex-boyfriend whom you
dated for two weeks before you guys broke up?”
Ste did not answer. Felicity confirmed her suspicions after seeing her reaction. “Ah hah! I knew it!
There’s no way you would forget him since we’ve only graduated not too long ago, especially since
he’s so good- looking.”
Ste sighed. “Please don’t say anything about this in front of Keegan, or he’ll get upset.”
“He might’ve been fine with it if you had just admitted it earlier. Why did you even pretend like you didn’t
know Spencer? I’d be upset too if I were Keegan.” Felicity paused a while before saying, “Wait a
minute. They look so simr; you clearly have a type. You’re not using Keegan as Spencer’s substitute,
are you?*
Ste’s eyelids twitched when she heard that. “What are you talking about? They’re nothing alike.
You’ve been watching too many dramas.’
Felicity did not care much about the resemnce between the two men. Instead, she was more curious
about how Ste managed to date the campus heartthrob. “Come on, tell me. How did you win him
over?”
“Why can’t it be the other way around? Maybe he was the one who hit on me first,” said Ste.
Felicity scoffed and said, “I would believe you if you looked the way you do now back in high school.
I’ve seen the pictures, you know? You literally weighed at least 130 pounds back then. I don’t think an
attractive teenage boy would’ve wanted to hit on you.”
Ste’s face darkened upon hearing that. “Excuse you? I didn’t weigh 130 pounds. I was 120 pounds at
most. Plus, I’m tall. It’s normal for me to weigh a little more than the other girls in school.’
“Okay, fine. So who was the initiator of the rtionship?”
Ste hesitated for a moment and finally said, “I randomly confessed to him one day, and he epted
it.”
‘It was surprisingly easy to win him over,’ she thought.
“I don’t think that confession was random.” A cold voice suddenly came from behind her.
Ste’s hands trembled, and she almost dropped her te. Thankfully, Spencer was there to catch it.
“Why did you pretend not to know me earlier? ” he asked.
Felicity’s mouth dropped open wide. ‘Oh, shit. She’s been caught red- handed!’ She continued to eat
her egg tart, pretending nothing had happened while eavesdropping on their conversation.
Ste fidgeted around and thought, ‘Everything’s going to be fine as long as I remain calm.’
“Well, you have a different status now, and we’re no longer in the same circle. I just don’t want people
to get the wrong idea,” she said.
Spencer pondered upon her answer and asked, “Who would get the wrong idea, exactly? Keegan? I
thought you guys were divorced.”
