Chapter 1174 They Had A History

Emerging from the seclusion of the private room, Laney’s intuition was ablaze, detecting that the history between Garrett and Kailee was far from simple.

The jealousy that sparked in Kailee’s eyes as Garrett held Laney was undeniable. If envy could manifest as a lethal blade, Laney would have surely perished at Kailee’s hands.

Upon settling into the car, Laney feigned seriousness, her voice tinged with confusion. “Why do I get the sense that your connection with Kailee goes beyond just being old classmates?”

Garrett was taken aback by Laney’s perceptiveness, his pulse quickening. He fumbled for words, explaining, “We were an item back in our school days. But after graduation, we went our separate ways and haven’t really been in touch. I didn’t mention it earlier because I didn’t want you to feel envious. I swear!”

Witnessing Garrett’s disarray, Laney couldn’t suppress her laughter any longer, her amusement spilling over. “Don’t worry. I don’t succumb to jealousy on a whim. But…” Garrett’s anxiety returned.

“What?” Laney’s expression turned icy. “Kailee’s actions were despicable. It’s one thing to insult me, but to demean Janet as well? That’s simply unbearable.”
