Secret Crush

Chapter 21 Design (Part Two)

Having no idea what Astrid had said to Veron, Leila saw that Veron was out of control, and there was a hint of anger rising over his handsome face. Veron was flushed while arguing with Astrid. Leila could not miss such a good opportunity, so she took her mobile phone out of her pocket and took several photos of those two persons gleefully. Sitting by her side, Max squinted at her with his mysterious eyes. While Leila looked through the photo album on her mobile phone and smiled like a cat that has stolen fish.

Just then, something happened between Astrid and Veron. They didn't argue anymore somehow. Looking at the woman in front of him, Veron gradually calmed down. A slight flush appeared on the woman's face. Leila raised her eyebrows in the car and looked at the man and woman in front of her. Then Leila began to sneer for she just wanted to take some photos of them from some special angles. But these two persons chose to be intimate, which really surprised Leila. Just as Leila has said before, they really match with each other.

Not knowing what Astrid continued to say, yet Leila saw Veron gently pulled Astrid into his arms. Leila couldn't hear clearly what Veron was saying, but she could guess what he meant from his lips, which seemed to be something like, “I know I've hurt you”.

Leila thanked Max even more for taking her away so she could see them clearly. If she hadn't entered the room by mistake that night, they may have been keeping her in the dark like she was a fool.

With an even colder look, Leila took out her phone and took a few more photos of those two persons in front of her. Then Leila sent the photos to Daisy for there would be nothing interesting if there was only she own knowing the adultery. What’s more, Daisy was engaged to Veron. In this case, Veron was intimate with another female in public, which would certainly piss off Daisy. After all, they would be involved in an internal strife. But the worse their relationship became, the happier Leila would be for she could benefit from their conflict.

Listening to the vibration of her phone, Leila smiled cunningly. She pressed the button and heard a roar of rage from the other end of the phone.

"Leila, what do you mean? !"

Leila squinted her eyes and said lazily, "I'm helping you. They were at the former university. Whether come or not is up to you."

When Daisy was roaring on the phone, Leila quickly hung up the phone, preventing herself from hearing the words said by Daisy. Since Leila didn’t want to hear more, then there was no need to continue the conversation.

Max sat aside and watched what has happened quietly. It seemed that the thing had come to an end. But it was not a good ending. Max opened the door and got out of the car under the surprised eyes of Leila. Before Leila had time to react, she had been pulled out of the car. Seeing their figures in an instant, the people on the opposite side panicked. Veron hurriedly pushed away the woman in his arms, and such a decisive action brought a hint of slight pain to Astrid's face. Then Astrid stared at Leila ferociously, while Leila shrugged slightly to show that she was helpless.

"Leila, it's not what you think!"

Veron explained in a hurry. After receiving the phone call from Leila at noon, Veron went straight to the gate of the university, but he didn't find Leila after waiting for a long time. He thought that there was something urgent for her, so he walked around the university. After finishing walking around the university, he still didn’t find Leila, but Astrid, Leila’s best friend has shown up at the university.

Astrid told Veron that they have fallen into a trap made by Leila. He didn't believe it and started to argue with her. But as he listened to her thought expressed unintentionally, a sense of conceit arose in his heart all of a sudden. And both of them seemed to forget that Leila has asked them out for this

meeting. It seemed as if a dry wood has met a fire, then they went out of control. When Leila really stood in front of him, Veron suddenly realized what Astrid said was true that Leila really set a trap.

Veron couldn't believe that the once innocent and naive girl would play such a trick, so he stood there with an unknown expression. While Astrid stood aside with an undisguised hatred.

"Leila, you are such a bitch!"

At this moment, Leila felt more that 'bitch' was not an insult. She chuckled and accepted it generously. Then she replied gently, "Don't be so quick to get angry. I still have a big gift for you."

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Daisy walked in a hurry and saw the four persons standing in front of the university. Her face darkened. She said in a cold voice, "What else do you want to say?"

Veron looked at her with a scowl. He didn't even want to explain anything, which enraged Daisy. She stepped forward, a trace of cruelty appeared on her usually beautiful face.

"Veron, I will give you a chance to explain everything clearly."

"Just as you can see," said Veron with a cold look at her.

Veron didn't know that Leila had sent photos showing he and Astrid were hugging together to Daisy. He just thought that Daisy has wronged him and Leila. And as long as Leila was involved, a feeling of resistance arose in the mind of Veron, which made his usual tenderness turn into a cold tone.

Anger was ignited in Daisy's heart. She turned to Astrid who was by her side, and she said in a ferocious tone, "Shame on you!"

Astrid was actually a bad tempered girl. Hearing the words, she flared up and then the hatred that she has repressed for many years burst out at this moment. She said sharply, "As a matter of fact, aren't

we the same kind of people?"

These words touched the sore spot of Daisy, who realized that similar thing has been done by herself to Leila in order to get Veron. Because of this, Daisy was regarded as a "mistress" forever. Even though they were engaged now, the past cannot be erased. Moreover, even if she snatched Veron from Leila, the latter quickly found a stronger man, which made her more like a contemptible scoundrel.

Daisy couldn't stand it any more, so she lifted her hand and was about to give a slap on Astrid's face. Yet Astrid didn't want it, so she immediately clamped the hand of Daisy by her own hand, which made Daisy couldn't move. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Leila and Max have been taking a panoramic view of the whole scene. After a while, they felt it boring. When they were about to turn around and leave, a very low voice came behind them.

"Leila, did you design all this?"

It was Veron who asked this. Leila turned back and looked at him coldly. She wasn't a forgetful person. She still remembered the time when she begged him, and compared her past experience

with what was happening now. It was really ironic.

Leila tried to answer him mildly, "Yes, I did."

She saw a hint of injury flashed across the face of Veron. After all, he was her former lover. Leila pursed her lips slightly, and then she turned around. For Max, he has begun to stride, so she trotted all the way to follow up, ignoring the burning sight behind.
