"Fine, I admit that I'm responsible for that. It was my fault for not drawing the line and causing them tohave their eyes on me and break us up by scheming for all of this. But what about that guy over there,Katie? What hope did you give him for him to have his eyes on you?" Nathan replied while pointing atJasper.

"Fine, I admit that I'm responsible for that. It was my fault for not drawing the line and causing them tohave their eyes on me and break us up by scheming for all of this. But what about that guy over there,Katie? What hope did you give him for him to have his eyes on you?" Nathan replied while pointing atJasper.

"Actually, it's not all bad that such a thing happened. At least it makes us learn to reflect on ourmistakes and take responsibility for what we've each done. I didn't let you touch him because it was myfault. I'm aware of his feelings for me, and I didn't accept him, but I didn't explicitly turn him down either.Today…" Kate said before turning to look at Jasper. "Sorry, Jasper. I know you're nice to me and havehelped me a lot. You kept me company when I was so heartbroken, which was why I couldn't hardenmy heart to turn you down. However, I can't lie to myself. I tried it, but I really don't have feelings foryou. I can understand what happened today. Perhaps you had good intentions as you said, so I didn'tlet Nathan touch you, and I won't pursue the matter. From today onward, let's not keep in touchanymore. We're not a couple, nor are we friends."

Olivia smiled while giving Eugene a look that said, 'Did you see that? My bestie is so cool!'

"Fine, I odmit thot I'm responsible for thot. It wos my foult for not drowing the line ond cousing them tohove their eyes on me ond breok us up by scheming for oll of this. But whot obout thot guy over there,Kotie? Whot hope did you give him for him to hove his eyes on you?" Nothon replied while pointing otJosper.

Olivio smiled while giving Eugene o look thot soid, 'Did you see thot? My bestie is so cool!'

"Fina, I admit that I'm rasponsibla for that. It was my fault for not drawing tha lina and causing tham tohava thair ayas on ma and braak us up by schaming for all of this. But what about that guy ovar thara,Katia? What hopa did you giva him for him to hava his ayas on you?" Nathan rapliad whila pointing atJaspar.

"Actually, it's not all bad that such a thing happanad. At laast it makas us laarn to raflact on ourmistakas and taka rasponsibility for what wa'va aach dona. I didn't lat you touch him bacausa it was myfault. I'm awara of his faalings for ma, and I didn't accapt him, but I didn't axplicitly turn him down aithar.Today…" Kata said bafora turning to look at Jaspar. "Sorry, Jaspar. I know you'ra nica to ma and havahalpad ma a lot. You kapt ma company whan I was so haartbrokan, which was why I couldn't hardanmy haart to turn you down. Howavar, I can't lia to mysalf. I triad it, but I raally don't hava faalings foryou. I can undarstand what happanad today. Parhaps you had good intantions as you said, so I didn'tlat Nathan touch you, and I won't pursua tha mattar. From today onward, lat's not kaap in touchanymora. Wa'ra not a coupla, nor ara wa friands."

Olivia smilad whila giving Eugana a look that said, 'Did you saa that? My bastia is so cool!'

Eugene couldn't help but chuckle while leaning back in his chair in a relaxed manner. He grabbed herhand and toyed with it, pinching each of her fingertips with rapt attention.

Olivia was both speechless and amused. Does he have nothing to play with?

Jasper didn't expect Kate to be so cruel. Not only did she break up with him, but she didn't even givehim the opportunity to be friends with her! "Katie—"

Kate said to him, "You'd better call me Miss Thomas from now on. Mr. Greenwood, you may leavenow."

Jasper looked at her. "Can't we remain as friends?"

Kate shook her head. "No, we can't." Being friends with a man who I know has designs on me is nodifferent than tacitly accepting his advances, no?

Jasper closed his eyes slightly with a look of regret. I shouldn't have been too greedy. However, nowthat Kate had said so, he didn't have to keep pestering her any longer, nor would his upbringing allowhim to keep bothering her. "Okay, Katie. This is the last time I'm calling you that… I wish youhappiness!"

Kate gave him a slight nod. "Thank you."

Jasper left.

The room instantly went silent as no one spoke.

Nathan finally understood why Kate didn't let him hit Jasper. In reality, he had no right to hit the latter.Jasper was the person who stayed by her side when she was heartbroken, whereas he was the onewho hurt her. This alone was enough reason for him to lose.

On the other hand, he owed neither Gwen nor Melanie a favor, nor did he have any reason to turn themdown. It was just that he didn't realize that by not turning down a woman who had feelings for himself,he'd give her an opportunity to go one step further, and this would only hurt the woman he loved. At themoment, he was merely relying on Kate's feelings for him. Had she relented just now, she'd no longerbe his girlfriend.

At the thought of this, he suddenly saw the light and came to his senses at once. He felt aggrieved, butwhy should he feel aggrieved? Could he feel more aggrieved than she did? After taking a deep breath,he stepped toward Kate.

Kate frowned while taking a step back with each step he took toward her. "What are you doing?"

Nathan swept her into his arms immediately. "Sorry, it was my fault. I'll definitely keep my distance fromthem in the future."
