“Isn’t the relationship between your family and Zephir’s family very close? You actually don’t know about
this?”
Leah did not answer and only stared at Zephir and Roxy, who were walking toward them.
Roxy saw Leah as well and instantly wrapped her arms around Zephir’s as if she was showing her
domination. “Ms. Younge, what a coincidence.”
Zephir looked at Leah but did not say a thing.
“Yeah, what a coincidence.” Leah nodded politely. She then picked up her wine glass and took a sip as if
she did not want to talk to Roxy anymore.
Several classmates could not help but feel a little strange when they saw the interaction between the
three of them.
One of their classmates glanced at Zephir and asked, “Zephir, is this your girlfriend?”
Zephir did not answer, but Roxy responded to the question almost instantly. “Yes, Zeph and I have been
dating for a while already.”
‘Zeph…’
All the classmates present knew Daisie Vanderbilt from the Goldmanns, and all of them also knew that
Daisie had had a very close relationship with Zephir back then.
Zephir had been taking very special care of Daisie, and any observant person would know that Zephir
had a thing for her.And Zeph was the nickname that Daisie used to address Zephir back then.
After looking at Roxy’s appearance, the ladies more or less understood something.
One of them laughed all of a sudden, and no one knew if she did so intentionally or unintentionally. “I
see. I heard that Daisie has gotten married. Zephir, I didn’t expect you to have not forgotten her after so
many years.”
Her response caused Roxy’s expression to dim instantly.
‘I know I’ve always been a stand-in, but I hate being reminded of this fact.
‘But why isn’t Zeph saying anything? He’s not even explaining our relationship for my sake. Doesn’t this
just go on to prove that I’m only a stand-in?”
Roxy bit her lip but immediately suppressed her emotions and smiled. “Oh really? Ms. Vanderbilt has
gotten married, and Zeph met me after that. Perhaps this is what we humans call fate?”
The female classmate gave off a pregnant smirk as if she was mocking the fact that a stand-in would be
shameless enough to think so highly of herself.
“However, I heard that Ms. Younge also had a crush on Zephir for so many years, right?”
Roxy’s words directed the gazes of all the people around her onto Leah.
They did not know about Leah’s crush on Zephir. They only knew that the Goslings had a good
relationship with the Younges.
Zephir and Leah were classmates in the past, and the two had been very close. Later on, Daisie
appeared in their lives through Zephir, and the three of them became almost inseparable.Everyone around them could see that Zephir liked Daisie back then, but they did not know that Leah
liked Zephir too.
In other words, it was Leah who had hidden her affection for Zephir so deeply that no one noticed..
‘Just what kind of love triangle is this?”
Leah pinched the stem of the glass tightly, and her expression turned chilly. She glared at Roxy, and
Roxy looked at her with a trace of provocation beaming from the bottom of her eyes.
After some time, Leah chuckled. “But that’s all in the past. I let go of it a long time ago.”
Leah admitted it on the spot.
Now that she was claiming that she had let go of the past, it meant that she was no longer secretly in
love with him.
Leah’s classmate asked at that moment, “When did it happen? Why didn’t we know about it?”
Leah glanced at Zephir and answered calmly, “I started to take a fancy to Zephir after he fell for Daisie.
The way he treated Daisie and took care of her were very attractive to me because all the things that he
did showed that he was a person who was capable of a long-lasting relationship.”
Zephir froze slightly.
She finished the wine in the glass, stared at the glass, and added calmly, “But that was all in the past.
Things are different now. I already have a boyfriend.”
Everyone around was shocked. Even Roxy was dumbfounded, but she reacted very quickly. “Ms.
Younge, are you messing with us?”27
