A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 157

Bun wanted to say something, but had no idea how to respond. She smiled wryly. She didn't even know herself why she didn't like Paul as much anymore.

Honestly, she didn't know the answer at all.

"Are you in love with someone else now?" Paul asked.

"No, I'm not. We didn't even have an established relationship." Bun answered.

Surprised at Bun's reply, Paul lowered his eyes.

"Yes, you're right. You're not even my girlfriend. It's all my fault. Can I ask one more question? If Brian hadn't shown up, would you be my girlfriend?"

Ignoring his question, Bun replied bluntly, "but he did show up."

Taken aback, Paul pursed his lips with a forced smile and nodded.

"Bun, I only wish for your happiness. I really hope Brian will be a good choice for you." Paul said. Bun suddenly grabbed him by the shoulders.

"I'm not with Brian yet, don't speak so carelessly. I believe you will meet the one for you as well." Bun said.

"All right. Please take this necklace. It's my gift to you as a friend." Paul said, handing her a beautiful, expensive-looking necklace.

"Thank you, Paul. But I don't think it's a good idea. I cannot accept this because we're not in a relationship." Bun replied.

"Bun, don't talk like that. If we can't be together, then we can at least be friends. I just want to express my love to you. If you don't feel the same way, I'll let it go."

Bun got teary-eyed. She fervently loved Paul in the past, but her feelings had faded with time.

"Paul, please don't say that. It makes me feel bad."

"Can I have one last hug? Just as we did when we were young." Paul pleaded.

Bun gave him a big hug. Meeting each other in their teens, Bun and Paul grew up together. Paul always cared for Bun until he started working for Charles and Bun joined the army.

Paul felt a bit bitter when Bun refused his necklace. He didn't mention that he had prepared it a long time ago, but failed to get the courage to give it to her. Now that he finally did, he was rejected.

He knew he could never ask Bun to be his girlfriend again.

Bun couldn't help crying as she walked away. She had no words to describe her emotions, nor did she know how to talk about it. She felt sorry for Paul. After all, they had mutual feelings for each other in the past.
