Leah pursed her lips tightly.
‘Why does he appear and disrupt my determination every time I decide to give up?”
Leah still rushed to the coffee shop in the end.
She stepped into the coffee shop and looked around, but she did not see Zephir. Just as she was about
to call him, she saw Roxy standing up from her seat. “Ms. Younge, over here.”
Seeing that it was her, Leah froze slightly.
She walked over and stopped at the table. “Why are you here?”
Roxy smirked. “Because I’m the one who invited you here.”
“It’s you?” Leah’s expression changed slightly.
‘Could it be that she’s the one who sent me the text message through Zephir’s cell phone?’
“Are you surprised?” Roxy stretched out her hand. “Take a seat, Ms. Younge. There’s something that I
want to talk to you about.”
Leah sat down with an unchanged expression. “Ms. Van Damme, what do you want to talk about?”
Roxy stirred the coffee in her cup. “It’s very straightforward. Of course, it’s about Zephir.”
Leah frowned but did not say anything.
“Actually, I can tell that you have a thing for him, right?”“What exactly are you trying to say?”
Roxy chuckled, lifted her gaze, and stared at her. “Your concern for Zephir is obvious. You’ve always
been by his side whenever he’s at his lowest, but in the end, have you gotten together with him as you
wished?”
Leah’s hands, which were resting on her thighs, clenched tightly. These words hurt as if thorns had
pierced through her heart.
Roxy continued. “Now, tell me. How could Zephir not know that you like him? When a woman is giving off
such an obvious attitude, any man would’ve known and acknowledged her feelings for him, so how could
he not know? It’s just that some men like to play dumb”
Leah scoffed. “Did you ask me out here just to mock me?”
Roxy acted very calmly. “I don’t mean to mock you. I’m just trying to persuade you. Since you know that
he won’t take a fancy to you, why bother to stay so attached to him?”
A hint of wrath flashed across Leah’s eyes. “What makes you think that you’re in the position to
persuade. me? You’re only someone he is using as a substitute. Do you really think he’s truly in love with
you?”
She chuckled happily. “I’m aware of that.”
Roxy supported her chin with her palm and continued. “It doesn’t matter if I’m only a double. At least I
have him. As for you, you’re not even good enough to be picked up as a double.”
Leah laughed angrily. “Are you very proud of being a stand-in?”
“I earned his attention with this face of mine. Do you think he’ll give up on me any time soon?” Roxy
leaned backward and gave off an even smugger smirk. “It’s not that I care about him now. He’s the onewho cares about me now. So, Ms. Younge, I truly sympathize with you. You still can’t win his heart, even
though you’ve given him your everything. So what’s the use of it?”
Leah gnashed her teeth. “Roxy Van Damme, I’d advise you not to be so complacent.”
“Oh, really?” Roxy leaned forward. “Then let’s take a gamble and see if your so-called childhood
sweetheart would believe you or me?”
Just as she finished saying so, Roxy picked up the coffee on the table and poured it on herself.
Without giving Leah a chance to stop herself, Roxy had already gotten up abruptly, ignored the coffee on
her body, and started crying. “Ms. Younge, why are you doing this to me? I know I’m only a stand-in, but
why do you insist on forcing me to leave him!”
“Ms. Van Damme, what horsecr*p are you talking-”
Roxy suddenly knelt at her feet and begged her. “Everything’s my fault, Ms. Younge. I shouldn’t have
snatched him from you. I’m the delusional one here. It’s all my fault!”
The guests surrounding them stared at Leah with strange expressions as if she had really done
something to Roxy.
