Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U

Chapter 270

Chapter 270 Is This Your Girlfriend?

Anaya saw that Winston didn’t look good and was worried that her best friend would be taken care of when she returned, so she loosened Aracely and Emmett’s joined hands.

“You and Mr. Karley just met. It’s not a good idea to get close to him.”

Aracely disagreed, “I’ve known him for more than a month. It’s not short. Have I told you that I

have a friend who had sex with her boyfriend less than two weeks after they met…”

A voice came from behind her. “Then, where are you guys now?”

“We just held hands…”

As Aracely spoke, she suddenly realized that the one asking the question wasn’t Anaya.

She turned around and saw Winston’s expressionless face. There was a hint of anger on it.

Ever since their relationship changed, Winston was rarely as gentle as he was before.

Sometimes, Aracely couldn’t even tell if he was overbearing and irritable. Perhaps, she had gone too far lately and always made him angry…

When Aracely felt his displeasure, she immediately hid behind Emmett.

She would keep Emmett by her side so she could clear her relationship with Winston.

It was probably because of Emmett that Winston spoke less with her even if they had been living together. What was more, he would not do those intimate actions to her like before.

When they were alone, he would say that he would be responsible for her.

However, what she wanted was never his responsibility.

What she wanted were his feelings.

And he could not give them to her.

He already fell for another woman.

Since she couldn’t get them, she would rather not start the relationship.

Winston pestered her like this just because he wanted to be responsible for the sex.

Since that was the case, she would solve the problem from its root and let Winston give up on the idea of taking responsibility.

Aracely made up her mind and said, “Emmett and I have had sex several times.”

After she finished speaking, she hid behind Emmett, afraid that Winston would come over and pull her away.

She waited for a few seconds but did not see any movement from Winston.

She poked her head out from behind Emmett.

Winston stared at her with his handsome face hidden in the shadow silently.

“Winston?” Aracely was scared by his stare.

Winston didn’t respond and turned to leave.

Winston would bring Aracely back by force when something similar happened before.

Today, he didn’t make any noise, which made Aracely a little flustered.

She always felt that he had given up on her.

This was the result Aracely had always wanted.

But at this moment, she had the urge to rush over and grab him.

She took a step forward but then stepped back.

Forget it.

It would be good if he gave up.

They were not meant for each other in the first place. And it would be improper to be together like they used to be.

“Aracely?”

Aracely raised her head and met Emmett’s eyes.

Under the streetlights, his face was a little blurry.

The scene behind him was the same.

Emmett handed her a tissue. “Why did you cry?”

“I didn’t.” Aracely did not take it.

“I’ll take a taxi home. Go back by yourself,” she said, sniffing.

Emmett asked, “Didn’t you say you wanted to ride a motorcycle to the river for a ride?”

“Who wants such a ride with you on such a cold day?”

Emmett was speechless.

Why did she ask him to come now that she didn’t want the ride?

Despite his anger, he had to keep a smile for his financial backer.

After Emmett left, Anaya had a chance to speak to Aracely, “I’ll send you back.”

Aracely shook her head. “I’ll walk around myself before going back…”

Aracely insisted, so Anaya did not impose her idea. She just told Aracely to be careful and drove away.

Not long after leaving the parking lot, she saw Winston’s car parked by the roadside.

Winston leaned against the car with a cigarette between his fingers.

The cigarette was lit, and his expression was unclear.

“I thought you didn’t smoke.”

When Winston heard Anaya’s voice, he tilted his head and looked at her.

After a casual glance, he looked away, put out the cigarette, and threw it into the trash can by the road.

“I just won’t smoke in front of you guys.”

Aracely did not like the smell of smoke, so Winston never smoked in front of her and her friends.

Anaya was silent for a while and said, “She and Emmett haven’t gone that far.”

Winston leaned against the car and looked at the opposite street.

His gentle face looked somewhat melancholy.

“I know.”

But he still felt uncomfortable.

To cut off from Winston, Aracely tried her best to lie.

It showed how much she resisted him.

Anaya asked, “Did you ask her why she refused to accept you?”

“I asked, but she refused to tell me.”

Anaya understood why.

Aracely looked carefree, but she was actually a stubborn person.

No one else could make her talk if she didn’t want to.

Anaya thought for a moment and said, “From my point of view as a bystander, she may have feelings for you.”

Winston turned to look at her without denying her words.

Anaya continued, “Since she has been in her comfort zone and doesn’t want changes, why not provoke her?”

Winston asked humbly, “How?”

“How about learning from her and finding yourself a girlfriend?”

Anaya casually mentioned it that night, but Winston took her words to heart. On Anaya’s birthday, he brought a young and beautiful female companion with him.

Anaya knew this woman.

It was Reina, who just had a meal with her a few days ago.

Before Reina came, she heard Winston mention that tonight’s party was Anaya’s birthday party.

Thus, when seeing Anaya, Reina wasn’t surprised and politely greeted her. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Anaya greeted Anaya as well, and her gaze fell on Winston. “How do you know each other?”

Winston briefly explained, “University classmates.”

Anaya no longer asked about this. “Do you want to play cards? Aracely just won two rounds and is showing off.”

Anaya paused for a moment and said, “You can introduce Reina to her.”

Anaya didn’t invite many people, so she only booked a private room to enjoy the birthday party with people close to her.

There were many girls at the scene, so the guys did not smoke. The environment was not bad, and they gambled with just a little money on playing cards.

At this time, a group of people gathered around the table, noisy and lively.

Winston asked for Reina’s opinion like a gentleman, “May I?”

Before they came, he had told Reina the purpose of his visit. Reina nodded. “Go.”

Aracely won three consecutive victories and counted the money in her hands happily.

Kelton was not convinced and slammed his wallet on the table. “I don’t believe that I will be so unlucky. Let’s play another game.”

“Kelton, save it. I’m afraid that you’ll become penniless if you play two more rounds,” Aracely smiled mischievously.

Kelton ridiculed. “As a girl, can’t you learn from Anaya and speak more politely?”

Aracely ignored him and looked up at the others. “Anyone else? I won’t bully this rookie…”

Halfway through her words, her pupils suddenly contracted.

Winston held Reina and stopped at the table.

Aracely met his gaze. In just a second, she looked away as if she was stabbed.

Kelton saw Winston holding a woman and felt interested.

“Winston, is this your girlfriend?”

The moment Aracely heard Kelton’s question, she clenched her hand that was on the table and waited for Winston’s answer.

Aracely thought Winston would deny Kelton’s guess.

However, his answer was yes.

Aracely seemed to have frozen, and she did not come back to her senses for a long time.
