Chapter 1673: Former campus belle
"Are you two on a date?"
Ginnie and Max froze for a second before the latter reacted almost accusingly.
"A date?!" he scoffed, scrunching up his nose in disbelief. "Me and her? Hah! Impossible! No way! Also, shouldn’t we be the ones asking why you two are together—wait!"
Ginnie pursed her lips and cast him a side-eye. She didn’t say anything, but the slight twitch at the corner of her lips somehow showed her repressed emotions.
Max’s face quickly turned red, glaring a dagger at Hugo as if the latter were truly a born player. He pointed at him dramatically.
"Hugo, what’s the meaning of this?!" he gasped in disbelief. "Are you dating her?!"
"Ah, it’s not—"
’No,’ Before Kiara could answer, Hugo nodded, pointing at Kiara with his thumb. "She’s my new girlfriend."
Slowly, Kiara turned her head, her jaw dropping. Max, on the other hand, froze in surprise. Meanwhile, Ginnie’s brows furrowed. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that only Ginnie knew Hugo meant something else.
"Girl—girlfriend?!" Max stuttered in horror, his heart thudding heavily as he remembered Ginnie standing just beside him.
Kiara shook her head, eyes on Hugo. "What in the world are you talking about?"
They’d just eaten together—a couple of times. She didn’t get the memo it was a date, and nowhere in there did she know she agreed to a relationship with him!
