Chapter 183 Keep Him Guessing
Upon hearing Camilaâs scolding, Kate cried even louder as she understood her bestieâs pure
intention. She tearfully forced a smile and said, âIf I really hit Melanie, Landon would definitely come
after me and give me a piece of his mind for getting physical on her girlfriend. After all, she is a
woman who's mild-mannered and clever with words while I just look like a woman who has nothing
better to do than seeking trouble. I'm scared that he'd treat me that way.â
âIf Landon cuts ties with you because of Melanie,â Camila said with a pair of glacial eyes, âthen I'll do
the same to him and never hang around with him again!â After hearing Camila's touching words,
her tears began to roll down her cheeks once more as she wrapped her arms around her best friend.
âCamila... Actually, I can't help but feel upset every time Landon puts me down with his harsh
comments. After all, I'm a woman too. I wanted to believe that having a big mouth was just his
personality, but it pained me to witness his gentle and meek interaction with Melanie, especially
when they whispered to each other. Maybe Landon is not the problem, but I am! I can never be like
Melanie!â
Letting out a sigh, Camila patted her back. âWhat's so good about being like her? I like who you are
right now. Stop crying, Katie. Be yourself and change for no one else. Those who like you will accept
your shortcomings, and the same goes for your haters. No matter how you change, you'll never be
able to please them. Everyone is unique in his own way, and Landon will never find someone else
just like you. Like it or not, you shouldn't cramp your style for him because he doesn't know to
appreciate you. There will always be someone in this world who knows how to treasure you.â
While Kate began to sob again, Camila quickly wiped her tears off. âCome on, stop crying. Melanie
would be gleeful to see you crying. You should act as if Landon was someone that you have just
dumped to show her how foolish she was to gloat. The more vulnerable you look, the happier she
gets, and you never know when she'll come looking for trouble again. What you should do now is to
get yourself a boyfriend and show him to Landon to make him regret! That dude seriously needs to
have a checkup on his eyes for picking a lady like Melanie who dares to mess with us. The next time
she ever comes back, you should give her a piece of your mind and never back down! Let me know
if Landon really comes after you, and we'll deal with him together!â Tearfully, Kate replied, âBut I
don't want to find another man!â Camila was rendered speechless when she heard what Kate said,
but she soon poked her friend's forehead and said, âYou really like to be tortured by Landon, don't
you? You've treated him like your first love, haven't you?â
Kate wiped her tears while chuckling. âI'm just worried that this woman isn't serious in dating him.
Since Landon likes her so much, he'd be heartbroken if he realizes sheâs
just playing on his feelings the whole time.â âWell, that'd teach him a lesson for choosing that b*tch
over you! So, he would have no one else to blame but himself in that case,â Camila replied. Kate
stopped crying. âAm I really ugly right now?â Camila took a glimpse at her while wiping her tears,
saying in a disgusted manner, "Yup, I feel like puking now, in fact. A man like Landon is beneath
him. Come on, wash your face and fix your makeup. Don't let anyone see how pitiful you are right
now because I don't want to get embarrassed.â Kate nodded in response as she seemingly didn't
mind Camilaâs insults, whereupon she proceeded to wash her face. Meanwhile, Camila leaned on the
wall and looked at her in a casual manner while pondering. âI think you've been by Landon'âs side for
so long that heâs taken you for granted. So, from now on, you should ignore him, and by that, I
mean you shouldn't even look at him. If he ever asks you what's wrong, just tell him you're afraid
that his girlfriend would misunderstand. Say nothing more and make him guess what's going on. If
he becomes desperate, just tell him that his girlfriend has warned you to stay away from him. Since
she is trying to play dumb, it's time for you to return the favor. Try to be terse in your words to keep
him guessing. I doubt Landon will stand by and watch you being bullied. After all, I don't believe
your years of friendship with Landon canât match that b*tch's relationship that has only begun a few
days ago.â
