Chapter 967
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Felicity sniffed and glanced at him. Then, she said in a quavering voice,â What thing?â
Vermont paused as if he had something difficult for him to talk about. Then, he said after some time, âI used to have a girlfriend who was a model. She showed interest in me first, and she looked kind of pretty. So, I dated her fora while.â
Felicity paused. âYou mean you slept with her for a while, huh?â
Vermont was speechless.
âI didnât!â Vermont glared at her. âI only wanted to be in a relationship because I enjoyed the process of it, okay? Who told you I slept with every girlfriend I had? Besides, she was the one who chased after me. I only dated her because I thought she looked kind of cute, and she was fun to hang around with.
But-â
His tone changed as he gritted his teeth, âBut, that model was Nicoleâs ex girlfriend! Nicole thought that I stole her girlfriend, and she got so angry that she tried so hard to be with me just so I would break up with her ex girlfriend. Not only that she could take revenge on her ex-girlfriend by doing that, but she could also hurt my feelings.â
Felicity was confused.
She could not process what she had been told. âNicoleâs ex-girlfriend? Isnât Nicole a girl? Her girlfriend⦠l-ls sheâ¦â
Felicity widened her gaze.
Vermont put on a look on his face that said, âItâs exactly what youâre thinking.â
Felicity was speechless. âWhat I wrote is already cliche enough. I canât believe the reality is even more cliche.1 Vermont said in a low voice, âOnly a few people know about this. Iâm only telling you this because I trust you. So, you better not speak a word about it. The people in our country are not that open-minded yet.â
âI know.â Felicityâs voice sounded a lot softer too. âIâm not stupid.â
Then, she asked, âWhy did you send her flowers and confess to her then?â
Vermont answered, âShe wanted to be with me, but I already had a girlfriend back then. Besides, I didnât have any romantic feelings for her, so I kept ignoring her. But, sheâd come looking for me at the snooker club. She just wouldnât leave no matter how hard I tried to chase her away. She wanted to play a game with me. She said that sheâd never appear in front of me again if I won, but Iâd have to visit her at the set with flowers and tell everyone that weâre dating for a day if I lost.â
âSo, you lost?â
Felicity looked at him as if her eyes were saying, âHow could you lose to a woman? Youâre so useless.â
Vermont gritted his teeth as he tried to defend himself. âNicole is a bitch. She had been playing snooker since she was a kid. She even won a few competitions. None of us in the snooker club could beat her at all! I wouldnât have agreed to that if I had known about it earlier.â
âI see.â Felicity said before she continued, âWhat happened after that? Did your ex-girlfriend break up with you after you confessed to Nicole?â
âIt got on the news, and of course, she saw it too. She thought that I had betrayed her and fallen in love with Nicole. Then, she told me that Nicole didnât like men, and she only wanted to date me to take revenge on her.â
Felicity kept quiet.
She bowed her head down as her shoulders shook.
Vermont then angrily said, â Just go ahead and laugh if you want. Thereâs no need for you to hide.â
Felicity burst into laughter right after hearing that. âHahaha!â She laughed and mocked Vermont, âEven a playboy like you was once played by somebody else!â
Vermont was speechless.
âHow am I a playboy? I treated each and every one of my relationships with all my heart. Would a playboy do that? You canât call me a playboy just because Iâm inexperienced with love. A playboy is someone who thinks with his lower body. How can I find someone suitable for me without being in a few relationships?â
Felicity scoffed. âThen, would you mind if your future girlfriend had been in as many relationships as you did?â
Vermont said, âOf course. Iâm not the kind of person who messes around with different women before marriage and would only choose to marry a young and innocent girl. Compatibility is what matters most in a relationship. Thereâs no use if a person as pretty as a fairy is placed before me, but weâre not compatible.â
Vermont looked at her. Then, he coughed and asked, âWhat about you?
Would you mind if your future boyfriend dated plenty of girls?â
