Chapter 96
“But I have you here with me. I believe you’ll keep me safe. You even managed to beat Shawn to a pulp. Just let me drink one more beer,” I said with a kittenish tone
I tugged on Colin’s sleeves, hoping my stubbornness would get him to agree with my request.
Colin held my hand, and his tone remained firm. “Be good. You’ll get a headache if you drink too much.”
Eden had to close his gaping jaw. “Oh, my God. Colin, since when were you so gentle? I never knew you could be so charming. I don’t think I can stand this. I’m falling in love with you.”
“Stop dreaming. Colin is Lulu’s man. Don’t even think about it.”
Colin had drunk too much. His bright eyes looked slightly dazed, making him look charming and seductive.
There was a slight itch in my heart. I suddenly felt the urge to reach out and touch the corner of his eyes.
So, I reached out to touch it gently, along with his long eyelashes.
God had definitely favored Colin. He was almost 30, yet his skin was in perfect condition. Even his
eyelashes looked perfect.
How could a woman resist him?
By the time the party ended, everyone was tipsy. We sang out of tune as we walked alongside the quiet
street.
Colin tried his best to stay sober. He had followed me all the one to my dorm building. He only left after
seeing me go in.
For some reason, Queenle and Eden were gone. I asked Julia about it. She pursed her lips and said.
Don’t mention that simp in front of me.”
“What does that mean? Are you saying Queenie has fallen for Eden? How can that be? We haven’t
interrogated him and given him our stamp of approval. She can’t make a decision yet.”
“That’s enough. You should mind your own business. What about you?
“Colin looks like he treats you very well. He looks at you like you’re his sun. What about you? If you don’t
like him, you should be direct about it. Don’t keep stringing him along.

“Many girls have dubbed him Lincoln University’s most handsome man. You shouldn’t waste such an
opportunity.”
Here it was again. I don’t know what these people were thinking. Everyone kept pitting me with him ever
since Colin and I had made up.
No matter how many times I told people I saw him as a brother, no one would believe me.
Even if every man on Earth had feelings for me, Colin would not.
He only saw me as his sister. I had solidified my position a long time ago.
I was too lazy to explain myself. Even if Julia wasn’t tired of listening to me, I was tired of having to
explain myself.
I rolled my eyes and pretended I didn’t hear her. She angrily elbowed me and said, “You will come to a
realization soon enough. With that EQ of yours, I pity him.”
“Cut it out.”

Julia and I were talkin
talking and laughing when we reached the fourth floor. We immediately noticed Eden
and Queenie kissing in the corner.
No wonder I didn’t see them. They had already sneaked back to the dorms.
I had planned to watch a while longer. However, Queenie and Eden caught us.
Queenie’s face turned red as she entered the dorms. While the two of us weren’t paying attention, Eden. took the opportunity to leave. We didn’t even have the chance to condemn him.
We followed behind Queenie and returned to our dorms.
We asked Queenie why we didn’t hear anything from her when their relationship had reached this level.
Queenie acted shy and embarrassed. She joined forces with Zoey and moved the topic to me.
They were both adamant that Colin had feelings for me. They asked me to appreciate the opportunity
and quickly snag him up.
I did not have any energy left to explain myself and could only pretend that I had fallen asleep.
