Chapter 1355
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Felicity was taken aback when she saw Vermont with someone else. He seemed noticeably intoxicated and emitted a strong scent of alcohol. His shirt was half-open, and he could barely maintain his balance. He was leaning on the shoulder of the woman accompanying him.
The woman who was assisting him appeared surprised to find someone else in the house. She hesitated for a moment and then inquired, âAre you⦠the nanny?â
Her question rendered Felicity speechless. âNo, Iâm his aunt, â she replied.
The woman looked puzzled. âHis aunt?â
âYeah. Do I not look like I can be his aunt?â
The woman fell silent. Indeed, it did not seem likely, as Felicity appeared much too young. She was wearing cutesy pajamas, and her petite stature paired with her appearance, made her look like a high school student. âHer relationship with Vermont must be anything but ordinary if she lives here, âthe woman thought.
While the woman assessed Felicity, Felicity was also sizing her up. The woman stood at around 57â³
with long legs that seemed to stretch up to Felicityâs waist. She wore a formfitting, burgundy dress that accentuated her figure. Her makeup was flawless, and she had an attractive physique. While she might not possess Stellaâs striking allure, she was still undeniably beautiful.
Suddenly, Felicity recalled Vermontâs previous girlfriends. Even though they had known each other for only half a year, she was aware of his romantic history. As the youngest CEO of the five major entertainment companies in the country, he had switched partners faster than the rise of his firmâs celebrities. Moreover, his exes were all exceptionally attractive. Coincidentally, the appearance of the woman holding up Vermont matched his type.
Felicityâs gaze dimmed, as she thought about it. She pressed her lips together, and she chose not to say anything.
The woman eventually stopped staring and smiled faintly.â No. You donât seem like his aunt. You look rather young. Did you just start college? Vermont never mentioned anything about having such a young aunt before.â
âAre they close? Why did she call him by his first name?â While Felicity contemplated this, Vermont lost his footing and startled her. She was about to reach out and help him when the woman took hold of him.
Felicity froze for a moment, and her fingers curled into a fist.
Vermont leaned heavily on the woman. Considering his tall stature, it was quite a challenge for her to support him. She turned to Felicity and said, âCould you help me get him into bed? Heâs had a bit too much to drink.â
Felicityâs throat felt dry. She reluctantly grabbed Vermontâs arm and draped it over her shoulder.
Together, the women managed to get Vermont onto the bed.
The woman began unbuttoning Vermontâs shirt skillfully and continued, âCould you get me a wet towel?
Iâll help him freshen up a bit.â
âSure,â Felicity replied and went to the bathroom.
As she soaked the towel in water, an inexplicable anger surged within her.
âI canât believe that Stinky Cucumber! It had only been a few days since he confessed his feelings to me, and now heâs with another woman? Heâs showing his true colors! I knew this guy wasnât genuine!
How could a womanizer like him possibly be interested in me?â thought Felicity.
He was clearly toying with my feelings with that confession. And here I was thinking that he was sad because I rejected him. I canât believe I even considered giving him a chance! What a joke!â
Vermont had never been truthful with Felicity. He tricked her into preparing lunch for Corbin and devoured it himself.
When they were playing video games together, he would ask her to hide in the bushes with him. In the end, he would run away at the first sign of an enemy, leaving her to fend for herself.
âWhat kind of person would do that if they truly liked someone?â Felicity asked herself.
