Chapter 183 Keep Him Guessing
Upon hearing Camila’s scolding, Kate cried even louder as she understood her bestie’s pure intention.
She tearfully forced a smile and said, “If I really hit Melanie, Landon would definitely come after me and
give me a piece of his mind for getting physical on her girlfriend. After all, she is a woman who’s mild-
mannered and clever with words while I just look like a woman who has nothing better to do than
seeking trouble. I’m scared that he’d treat me that way.”
“If Landon cuts ties with you because of Melanie,” Camila said with a pair of glacial eyes, “then I’ll do
the same to him and never hang around with him again!” After hearing Camila’s touching words, her
tears began to roll down her cheeks once more as she wrapped her arms around her best friend.
“Camila… Actually, I can’t help but feel upset every time Landon puts me down with his harsh

personality, but it pained me to witness his gentle and meek interaction with Melanie, especially when
they whispered to each other. Maybe Landon is not the problem, but I am! I can never be like Melanie!”
Letting out a sigh, Camila patted her back. “What’s so good about being like her? I like who you are
right now. Stop crying, Katie. Be yourself and change for no one else. Those who like you will accept
your shortcomings, and the same goes for your haters. No matter how you change, you’ll never be able
to please them. Everyone is unique in his own way, and Landon will never find someone else just like
you. Like it or not, you shouldn’t cramp your style for him because he doesn’t know to appreciate you.
There will always be someone in this world who knows how to treasure you.”
While Kate began to sob again, Camila quickly wiped her tears off. “Come on, stop crying. Melanie
would be gleeful to see you crying. You should act as if Landon was someone that you have just
dumped to show her how foolish she was to gloat. The more vulnerable you look, the happier she gets,
and you never know when she’ll come looking for trouble again. What you should do now is to get
yourself a boyfriend and show him to Landon to make him regret! That dude seriously needs to have a
checkup on his eyes for picking a lady like Melanie who dares to mess with us. The next time she ever
comes back, you should give her a piece of your mind and never back down! Let me know if Landon
really comes after you, and we’ll deal with him together!” Tearfully, Kate replied, “But I don’t want to find
another man!” Camila was rendered speechless when she heard what Kate said, but she soon poked
her friend’s forehead and said, “You really like to be tortured by Landon, don’t you? You’ve treated him
like your first love, haven’t you?”
Kate wiped her tears while chuckling. “I’m just worried that this woman isn’t serious in dating him. Since
Landon likes her so much, he’d be heartbroken if he realizes she’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmjust playing on his feelings the whole time.” “Well, that’d teach him a lesson for choosing that b*tch over
you! So, he would have no one else to blame but himself in that case,” Camila replied. Kate stopped
crying. “Am I really ugly right now?” Camila took a glimpse at her while wiping her tears, saying in a
disgusted manner, “Yup, I feel like puking now, in fact. A man like Landon is beneath him. Come on,
wash your face and fix your makeup. Don’t let anyone see how pitiful you are right now because I don’t
want to get embarrassed.” Kate nodded in response as she seemingly didn’t mind Camila’s insults,
whereupon she proceeded to wash her face. Meanwhile, Camila leaned on the wall and looked at her
in a casual manner while pondering. “I think you’ve been by Landon’s side for so long that he’s taken
you for granted. So, from now on, you should ignore him, and by that, I mean you shouldn’t even look
at him. If he ever asks you what’s wrong, just tell him you’re afraid that his girlfriend would
misunderstand. Say nothing more and make him guess what’s going on. If he becomes desperate, just
tell him that his girlfriend has warned you to stay away from him. Since she is trying to play dumb, it’s
time for you to return the favor. Try to be terse in your words to keep him guessing. I doubt Landon will
stand by and watch you being bullied. After all, I don’t believe your years of friendship with Landon
can’t match that b*tch’s relationship that has only begun a few days ago.”
