Pursuing Her

Chapter 122 What A Bummer

“I heard that you’ve been to Jipsdale Premier High today, Mason.”

Unable to stand watching Willow shiver incessantly, Mason removed his coat and wrapped it around her.

His warmth still lingered on the inside. Willow could not help but raise her eyes to regard him.

You still care for me, don’t you? It’s not like you no longer feel anything for me anymore!

“Mason!” Willow felt profoundly aggrieved, for everything she had done was only motivated by her desire to be with him.

“This isn’t the sort of place where you should be, so hurry up and go home!”

When Mason turned back toward Nocturnal, Willow rushed to him and hugged him from behind.

“You’re only treating me this way because of Sophie, aren’t you, Mason?”

“Willow!” Mason’s inflection carried with it a tone of warning.

“I’m as saddened by what happened to Sophie as you are, Mason, but this isn’t something that’s within our control! Won’t you please just stop being like this?”

Enraged, Mason shoved Willow off, sending her staggering back several paces.

That got her staring at him in disbelief.

“Sophie isn’t that sort of person, so someone must be messing with her behind her back.” Convinced that it was his lack of trust in Sophie five years ago that led to the present-day circumstances, he thus decided that five years later on this very day, he was going to stand by her no matter what.

Hearing that from him only left Willow even more infuriated.

Does he really trust her that much?

Ignoring her, Mason continued into Nocturnal.

As much as Willow wanted to follow, she found herself stopped at the door by the security.

“No entry without a valid ID card, miss.”

“I’m of legal age.” Willow was actually older than Sophie by a year and only had to take a year off from school because of poor health. That meant that she was already nineteen.
