Cheat With My Boyfriend Best Friend

Cheat With My Boyfriend Best Friend By Jane E.L. Chapter 21

Finally, I realized how celebrity magazine reporters felt when they dug up juicy gossip. As soon as those words left his lips, I felt energized and attentive

“You mean like you’ve given up on a crush? Or had a bad break up?” My tone was cautious, but in all actuality, I felt more empowered than ever. I was the reporter holding a mic in his face.

Hell, I felt like I could’ve slapped him if I wanted to, no holds barred.

“Eh… a bit of a forbidden love.” Aaron smiled a little disappointedly.

This was big! It was something I could stay up with Cinder talking about! Aaron was in love! This lined up with him rejecting Cinder on their date. I couldn’t believe it! What kind of woman could win the heart of a man like Aaron?!

Maybe she was an alien.

“Okay! Three minutes left. The interview’s over. Time to go.” Aaron dodged my interrogation and walked around the car to open the door for me.

I watched him stretch out his hand, waiting politely for mine. I placed my fingers gently on his palm, and under his silent leadership, I took his arm.

The venue was a modern-style building with smooth, minimalist architecture that gave a humble yet confident air. At the entrance, an endless stream of celebrities flooded inside while waving their invitations. I held Aaron’s arm a little tighter, suddenly nervous.
