Chapter 29 Really Want To Punch This Guy

In their room, Simone noticed Keira staring at her. Simone smiled and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?

Keira didn’t hold back. “I never expected to uncover the gossip between you and Leon.” She had suspected something was off with Leon, and now she knew he and Simone had a history.

Simone shrugged off the revelation. “Impulsive decisions from our youth.”

Keira looked at Simone’s nonchalant demeanor and chuckled. “Who hasn’t fallen for a scoundrel in their younger days? It’s all about cutting your losses in time.” Her own past had seen her betrayed by a boyfriend, so she held a particular disdain for individuals like Leon, who, despite having a girlfriend, became involved with other women.

Simone agreed, nodding. “Exactly, cutting losses in time is the way to go.”

Keira thought for a moment and couldn’t resist asking, “Did you and Aaron ever have a thing?” She noticed the man’s behavior, acting cute and dependent on Simone, which wasn’t typical of friends.

Simone chuckled. “Impossible. He and I are related by blood.” This wouldn’t be a secret for much longer, so she didn’t mind telling Keira in advance. Keira didn’t strike her as someone who would betray her.

Keira’s eyes widened. “What? Are you and Aaron blood–related? You’re siblings?”

Simone nodded. “We used to be.”

Keira was puzzled. “Used to be?”

Simone explained, “Before joining this reality show, I severed all ties with him and our family.”

Keira asked, “Why? It wasn’t because of Jodie, was it?”

Simone hesitated, then replied, “Well, she was a big part of it.”
