Regina Kelloway stared at him intently, asking word by word, "Do you really... find me annoying?"
Jeremy Lawrence’s face changed slightly, and the hand hanging by his side clenched tight.
After Regina asked, she didn’t say anything more, just quietly waited for his answer.
Ashton Heath and Joanna Lawrence also turned their heads to glance at Jeremy.
About ten seconds later.
Jeremy took a deep breath and said calmly, "Yes, so I hope you won’t pester me anymore. Regina, you have a fiance, and it’s not good for you to cling to other men ."
Regina’s lips moved, and she tried to explain.
She wanted to say that she didn’t have a fiance.
The man Rebecca Kelloway mentioned was not her fiance.
It was just that the parents of the two families had intentions of arranging a marriage alliance after they graduated from college.
But she never agreed to it.
However, looking at Jeremy’s cold demeanor and his slightly furrowed brow, she felt it wasn’t necessary anymore.
What was the point of explaining these things to someone who didn’t like her, even found her annoying and disgusting?
It felt like her heart was being cut by small knives, so painful, so painful.
She had liked Jeremy for many years.
When she saw him speaking on stage as a representative of new students at the opening ceremony in the tenth grade, she fell in love with him at first sight.
And then pursued him relentlessly for three years.
During those three years, Jeremy had rejected her many times, and said more than once that she was annoying.
But Regina didn’t think he really disliked her.
Because when Jeremy said she was annoying, his eyes didn’t show disgust or true impatience.
But this time was different...
Regina saw those hurtful things in his eyes.
She realized that Jeremy really didn’t like her.
There should be some self-esteem in loving someone, right?
She persisted before because she felt that as long as she held on and tried hard, she would eventually move him. After all, she had been chasing him for three years, and Jeremy had always been tolerant of her, hadn’t he?
She thought she still had hope.
Perhaps he was really fed up with her, so he didn’t want to tolerate her anymore and spoke his mind.
He even said he hated her.
What reason did she have to continue?
Three years of entanglement, and today it could finally come to an end.
At the moment of deciding to give up, Regina’s heart ached as if being cut by a knife, her face turning much paler.
Her eyes welled up with tears, and in an instant, tears welled up at the corners of her eyes.
Regina, you..." Jeremy frowned, and the indescribable feeling in his heart grew increasingly uncomfortable.
"Jeremy, don’t worry, I won’t pester you anymore," Regina cried and smiled at the same time, "I’m sorry I troubled you for three years, bringing you so much trouble. I know I’m quite annoying. You’ve made it clear that you don’t like me, and yet, I still clung to you."
"But in the future, I really won’t."
"I’m really, really sorry." After saying this, she bowed deeply to Jeremy.
"Also, I’m really, really sorry about what just happened. I apologize on behalf of my sister, Joanna." She bowed deeply again.
Jeremy stared blankly at her, his body gradually stiffening.
After Regina had done all this, it seemed like she had really let go of everything, not giving him another glance as she turned around and slowly walked towards Rebecca.
Jeremy stood still, his expression frozen as he watched her retreating figure.
When Regina told him she wouldn’t pester him anymore just now, her eyes seemed to have really let it go.
