Laney gritted her teeth and said firmly, “Greg, I don‘t like you that way.I only think of you as a friend.”

Greg ran his fingers through his wet hair and murmured, “So, you don‘t hate me? Are you saying I just need to try harder?”

The thought seemed to excite him.

He quickly handed the umbrella to her and cried, “Then I‘ll try harder, Laney!”

With a big smile on his face, he rushed back to his car and drove away.

Laney was at a loss for words.She could only sighed heavily and went back to her apartment with his umbrella.

Ever since she moved into her new apartment, she hadn‘t bought any home goods.

It just so happened that she had almost run out of food, so after getting off work one evening, she decided to go to the supermarket.

There seemed to be a sale today, because the supermarket was crowded with people.

Amidst the crowd, Laney saw Garrett and a beautiful girl beside him.It only took one look at the girl for Laney to realize that she was Garrett‘s type.

“You should eat more vegetables.I know you work overtime a lot, so you need healthier food.”

The girl held a bundle of leafy greens in front of Garrett.You know I don‘t have time to cook.I‘m just here to buy some vitamins,”

Garrett said gently.

Laney rolled her eyes and sneered.She somehow felt cheated.

Just when she was beginning to think that Garrett had really changed, she was wrong.He was just trying to fool everyone.

Laney left the supermarket with nothing but anger.She was inexplicably annoyed.

Just a few days ago, Garrett tried talking her out of getting into a relationship with someone else.

Yet here he was now, dating another girl himself.
