Love’s New Bloom By Simone Hastings Chapter 137
hapter 137 You Nutcase! Upon hearing Simon say that he was looking for Erin, Holly’s eyes flickered. She looked at Erin with a teasing expression in her eyes and asked. “Erin, when did you become so familiar with Mr. Frost?” Erin’s heart tightened. She laughed and replied casually, “Well, Mr. Frost came to see Ms. Zeigler the other day-” She was trying to explain and clear the air, but Simon couldn’t bear it anymore. He looked at Holly and said. “Ms. Green, you should remember that I had a girlfriend, right? We broke up a few days ago because she cheated on me with a male actor from the crew, and it was thanks to Ms. Lane’s honesty that I didn’t propose to such a woman. But I was furious at that time and-” Suddenly, he stopped without finishing his sentence. Erin’s face turned one shade paler, and she quickly continued, “He was so furious that he threw my phone into the lake! Later, after he’d calmed down, he felt sorry and let me use his personal phone for the time being. Have you come to retrieve your phone, Mr. Frost?” She stuffed the skincare products into Holly’s hand, quickly opened the envelope she was carrying, and took out Simon’s black phone. Erin handed the phone to him, saying. “Here’s your phone, Mr. Frost.” The faint warning in her eyes inexplicably made Simon feel pleased. Seeing Erin so concerned that Holly would know more details, he suppressed a smile while harboring some wicked intentions. He lowered his gaze, thought for a moment, and was about to say something when Erin quickly added, “Don’t you worry, Mr. Frost. I’ve already topped up the phone credit for you. There’s five hundred in it.” She kept hinting at him with her eyes; it was almost a plea. Ultimately. Simon held his tongue and gave up on what he was about to say. He smiled and replied. “Thank you, Ms. Lane.” Holly, who had been watching the interaction between Erin and Simon, felt terrible about the whole ordeal, but she had no grounds to get angry. Even if she were really angry, she couldn’t place a finger on what she should be angry for. Nevertheless, she caught the most important point–Simon and his girlfriend had broken up! “Mr. Frost. I’m sorry to hear about you and your girlfriend breaking up.” She politely expressed her sympathy. Simon chuckled lightly. “Aren’t you humorous, Ms. Green? I broke things off with a woman who betrayed me. Shouldn’t you congratulate me instead?” Holly’s expression stiffened. “Right… Congratulations, Mr. Frost!” Watching Holly, who was usually bold and carefree, tread on ice in front of Simon, Erin couldn’t help but feel frustrated for her. The more Holly liked Simon, the more Erin felt that Simon was not worthy of her. After all, Simon was too extreme and stubborn. She knew that part of him very well! But what made Erin even more devastated was what happened in the next few seconds. Simon seemed lost in thought as he touched his chin, seemingly organizing his words. He suddenly said, “Ms. Green, you really don’t have to go out of your way to please me because I’ll never like you in this lifetime. If you want to know why, I can tell you it’s because I’m absolutely uninterested in your body.” These words shocked both Erin and Holly to no end. Erin thought she was hearing things, and Holly’s face was a mix of humiliation and confusion, not knowing how to respond. After a while, as the atmosphere between them reached a freezing point, Holly furrowed her brows and asked Simon, “Mr. Frost, are you trying to tell me implicitly that you’re more interested in Erin?” A trace of approval flashed through Simon’s eyes. “You’re smarter than I imagined, Ms. Green. You guessed it right. To be precise, I’m only interested in Erin’s body.” Caught in between the two, Erin felt extremely awkward. Anger was evident in her eyes as she questioned, “Simon, what nonsense are you. spouting? Are you out of your mind again?” Simon persisted without holding back. “The incident of kissing you at the loft was indeed a moment of madness. But now, I’m not joking when I say I want to pursue you.” His serious expression and the blatant desire in his eyes toward Erin finally pushed Holly, who was mentally and emotionally exhausted, over the edge. With a strange expression, she scoffed coldly, “I think I’ll leave so as not to disturb your flirting!” As Holly turned to leave. Erin took a step forward and grabbed her arm. “Holly, don’t listen to his nonsense! I have nothing to do with him. Please don’t misunderstand me!” “I don’t want to talk right now. Let go!” Holly’s voice was devoid of any warmth. She left without turning back. Erin stepped in front of her and pleaded. “Holly, listen to me. It’s really not what you think between him and me-” “Erin! Do you think I’m not embarrassed enough? Yes, I like Simon, but do you have to tell him about my personal matters and let him humiliate me? Since he’s interested in your body, then just do whatever the hell you want with each other! Book a room if you want to, as it’s none of my business! Move aside now!” Holly flung away Erin’s hand forcefully and left with a frigid expression. Erin wanted to chase after her, but Simon, who stood behind her with his arms crossed, sneered at her predicament. “You’re quite cowardly, Erin. You dare not tell your best friend anything. As for me, once I make a decision, I act immediately without so many concerns- Right then, Erin suddenly turned […]
