Chapter 107

Russel surely was one unlucky dude.

I only knew about his losing battle with Neil in my past life, but I didn’t know that before this competition, he’d already planted the seeds of his own tragedy.

And it all started with Karina

Karina was also a medical student, a classmate of Russel’s. At first, Karina was chasing after Russel, but Russel wasn’t in the mood for romance at that time, so he never gave Karina any response.

Then, at a party, Karina met Neil. Maybe to forget about Russel, she started to flirt with Neil, until both of them caught feelings and started dating.

Russel, why are you so unlucky?I felt genuinely sorry for him after hearing his story.

I realized I’d said something I shouldn’t have. How could I tell Russel that Bonnie ended up with Neil?

This would break his heart!

But luckily, Russel didn’t seem to react much. Maybe he’d accepted the fact that he was always one step behind Neil in the game of love.

I thought to myself, no wonder they fought so hard over Bonnie later on.

Now I basically understand the whole story. My confusion is gone.
