Sloane looked into Larry's earnest eyes, a flicker of warmth stirring in her chest. She pressed her lips together
and said softly, “There’s no need to repaywith your life. | didn’t save you to get something in
return.”
Larry, thinking she was about to reject him again, tensed up, a flash of disappointment crossing his eyes. But
then he heard her continue.
“But | can consider being friends.”
His face lit up instantly with joy. “Really? That's great!”
He was so excited he started stumbling over his words. “I-I'll definitely be the best friend | can be.”
Sloane hadn't expected this silly side of him and couldn't help but let out a quiet laugh.
Seeing her finally smile, Larry grinned even wider.
From a distance, Lucas watched the two laughing together. His chest tightened with jealousy, and he
unconsciously snapped the dry twig in his hand with a sharp crack.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStanding beside him, Ginnie took in his reaction with quiet satisfaction. A faint smile tugged at her lips. “What
are Sloane and Larry talking about? They look pretty happy, don’t they?”
Lucas’s expression darkened. His grip tightened, crushing the twig into pieces.
He turned and glared at Ginnie coldly, his voice sharp, “Ginnie, you'd better stop playing games. Next time, |
won't hold back just because of your grandfather.”
Her face twisted with anger and disbelief. “Why?” she snapped. “I could help you more than she ever could. |
love you more than she does. Why can’t you see that?”
Lucas stared at her with frosty detachment. “I love Sloane not because of what she can give me, but because
she’s her. And you-three years ago | made myself very clear. If you insist on deluding yourself, don’t blme
for being cruel.”
His words hit Ginnie like a slap. Her face went pale, and she bit her lip, eyes burning with resentment. “You think
Sloane really cares about you? If she did, she wouldn't have agreed to break off the engagement
back then.”
Lucas’s heart clenched at her words, like something inside him had been yanked hard.
But even then, he stayed calm-at least on the surface. “That's between her and me. None of your business”
Ginnie was furious now, shaking with rage. “You'll regret this, Lucas.”
She vowed he’d beg her to marry him one day.
Meanwhile, Jill returned cheerfully with a pile of prizes, only for Samson to tell her that Lucas and Ginnie had left
for an urgent matter.

Jill scowled and tossed her things down. “What the hell is Lucas thinking? Ditching you to leave with
Ginnic?”
The words made Sloane's heart sink. Her head dropped as her fingers subconsciously tightened around the
trinket in her hand, a quiet bitterness rising in her chest.
Larry glanced sideways, noticing her downcast expression. Trying to lighten the mood, he offered, “Let them go.
We can have fun without them.”
Having just been annoyed by Lucas, Jill suddenly found Larry more agreeable. She clapped him on the shoulder
and grinned. “All right, Mr. Whitney. Here's your shot. Lunch is on you.”
