Chapter 1521


    Vermont’s expression turned serious, as he held Felicity’s face and examined her closely. He stared at


    her so closely that it made her feel uneasy.


    She swatted his hand away and red at him. “What are you doing?”


    Vermont replied after a long pause, seemingly in disbelief. “How were you a girl?”


    Felicity’s face darkened. “What nonsense are you talking about? We’ve been dating for so long, and


    only now you realize that I’m a girl?”


    “No…” Vermont was usually very quick-witted, but he seemed to be at a loss for words at that moment.


    He did not know how he could exin his thoughts to her. After a while, he said, “Can’t you tell? I’m the


    boy you were talking about.”


    Felicity’s lips twitched. “What is wrong with you? Are you possessed? You don’t have to go so far even


    if you want topete with him.”


    Vermont ignored her question and called out, “Buffy?”


    Felicity paused before she turned around slowly and asked, “What did you call me?”


    Vermont’s gaze was intense. “Is that your childhood nickname? Buffy?”


    Felicity became angry, and she reached out to choke him. “How did you know about that? Did you go


    to Ste and ask about my secrets? Speak!”


    Buffy was a nickname given by her grandmother. When her parents were still together, her mother was


    very busy earning a living, so Felicity used to spend a lot of time with her grandmother.


    Felicity’s grandmother had many children, and plenty of grandchildren. She was not exactly her


    grandmother’s favorite, but her grandmother would always call her Buffy as if she were a boy. She was


    hoping that Florence would have a son someday.


    Florence did not like it, but her grandmother insisted on calling her that regardless of whether there was


    an outsider around or not.


    Felicity was just a kid, and she thought that Buffy was her real name because of how often her


    grandmother called her that. So, before her parents split up, the people in her father’s hometown would


    call her Buffy. It was only after her parents divorced and Florence moved out with her that people


    stopped calling her that.

    It was safe to say that other than the people living in her father’s hometown, her family, and Ste, no


    one else knew about this childhood nickname of hers.


    Vermont forcefully removed her hands from his neck before pinching her chin and forcing her to face


    him. “You wanted to learn how to climb a tree and insisted that I teach you. After I did, you went to


    show it off in front of your friends. However, you couldn’te down after climbing up. Your friends


    asked why you stayed up there, but you were too proud to tell them the truth. You even told them that


    the view up there was too beautiful. You only started crying and told me that you couldn’te down


    when I saw you aftering back from school.


    “That tree was about six feet tall. I told you to jump, and I’d catch you. But you refused because you


    didn’t want me to get hurt. I told you that I was much bigger than you, and there was no way you could


    hurt me. So, you jumped andnded right on top of me. You were small but surprisingly heavy.”


    Vermont chuckled as he spoke. He pinched her chubby cheeks and continued softly, “I wonder what


    took me so long to recognize you.”


    Felicity was shocked.


    She was in a daze and could not figure out how her childhood sweetheart would have anything to do


    with Vermont.


    It was terrifying. Her childhood sweetheart had such an innocent face, and she could not believe that


    he and her current flirtatious boyfriend were the same person.


    Felicity shook her head. “It can’t be you. I was only six or seven years old back then, so I couldn’t really


    remember what happened. You were already a teenager, so you should’ve remembered, right? Why


    would you only remember everything after I told you everything?”
