Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1626



After that, the two slipped down from the beds and crouched next to Freddy.

"Dude, what happened? Are you really not afraid to be trashed, saying all that cr*p to Bruno?"

"He would've kept all that to himself if he was. Didn't you see Bruno punching him? Does it hurt?"

With that, one of them poked the corner of Freddy's mouth, but he sat still, unresponsive.

"Freddy, bro?"

"Why isn't he responding? Had Bruno punched his brain out of him?"Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

The guys poked the corner of Freddy's mouth again, but eliciting no response, they continued to jab at him.

Freddy finally couldn't take it anymore; gritting his teeth, he cursed, "Have you guys had enough? You just have to go poking at my wound, do you? Although my heart hurts more now, I'm still made of flesh and blood. Can you two poke somewhere else?"

For some reason, although Freddy looked textbook woebegone at the moment, his two roommates could not help but guffaw when they heard his laments.

"Man, you sure are funny, Freddy. Shouldn't you be saying something like your heart is dead, apart from a bleeding heart, you don't feel any pain?" "Yeah, so what are you doing, still saying your wound hurts?"

Freddy looked at his two roommates and snapped, "F*ck off!"

After he scolded, the pain at the corner of his mouth sent him groaning immediately, gasping ceaselessly.

Seeing that, the two roommates laughed even louder!

Incensed, Freddy gave each of them a kick.

"Whatever happened tonight stays here. I was drunk, and I was talking nonsense."

"Then why the stubborn act when you know what exactly you were doing? Bruno was so pissed he left because of you."

At that subject, Freddy became silent, his eyes dark and serious.

"I don't regret saying any of that."

Some cards had to be laid on the table, especially if it was love, never wise to be vague.

He could keep the topic away from Mashauva; all she needed to do was continue being her innocent self, but why couldn't he have resolved it with Bruno? Freddy was dead set on him clarifying things!

Late at night.

His hand in his pocket, back against the wall at a secluded spot near the school gates, Bruno stared forward with his gaze deep and serene. He'd wanted to get some fresh air, but before he knew it, he had reached where he was.

Freddy's words rang in his ears, his mind steeped in chaos.

He never had romantic feelings for Mashauva in the past, and the present, even more so, but why would it invariably arouse the wrong idea in people?

It was not the first time Freddy had said it.

He stood at the school gate for a long time before leaving.

The next day.

Freddy woke up to a throbbing pain at the corner of his mouth. Looking at his swollen jaw, he hissed and directed his gaze at Bruno as he said, "Bruno, can you go easy on me next time?"

Bruno shot a cold glance at him but didn't reply.

"Dude, I'm serious."

Finally, Bruno looked up at him. "What are you trying to say? I'm sure you've sobered up. If you make up another bullsh*t, I'll beat you until you can't get up."

"Sure, go ahead, as if I hadn't suffered enough yesterday. For Mashauva's sake, I won't fight back, will I?"

Bruno stared at him in silence.

"I want only one truth from you today. Do you like Mashauva or not?"

Hearing that, Bruno frowned, slightly displeased.

"I know this is no music to your ears, but for Mashauva's sake, I have to ask."

"What does this have to do with her?"

"How does it not?"

For the first time, Freddy thought he was unreasonable and selfish.

"If, I mean if Mashauva likes you, and if... if you don't look for a girlfriend, she'll continue to put her hopes on you, won't she?" Freddy's words rendered Bruno flabbergasted.

"Say again?"

"Don't blame me for being selfish. If

you have feelings for her, you can go ahead and never find yourself a

girlfriendz But if you do not

you should start finding one. At

least get Mashauva to divert her

feelings away from you. Be it a real girlfriend or fake, just let Mashauva know you have one." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Bruno was stupefied.

"Freddy, do you have a screw loose?"

"I don't. Didn't you say yesterday that her feeling for you is reliance? What if she can't differentiate between love and reliance?" Freddy looked at him, straight-faced. "So, you have to take the lead. If it is reliance, just as you said, she'll come out of it sooner or later."

A deathly hush settled around them. They held each other's gaze for a long while before Bruno snorted. "So, you're forcing me to find a girlfriend?"

"Is that what you think? If Mashauva has that kind of feeling toward you, will you be able to reciprocate it? If you can't, shouldn't you do something about it?"

Bruno did not respond.

"Rosalie has been pursuing you, hasn't she? Mashauva has met her before too, maybe you can ask for her help. You don't have to date her; just let Masahauva think she's your girlfriend."

Bruno remained silent.

"That's all I'm saying. Whatever happens next is up to you."

Freddy stood up, looking at Bruno as he laid his last words.

"It doesn't matter if I don't end up with Mashauva or that she'll never reciprocate my love for her, but I

feelings go unrequited. Bruno, you have even the slightest bit of pity for her, do something about it Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

After Freddy left, Bruno sat alone for what felt like a century that even their other two roommates had enough of playing dead, itchy under their blankets.

"Alright, you two, come out."

Bruno said irritably, "Don't suffocate."

Only then did they sit up, looking a little frustrated. Why couldn't Bruno and Freddy have picked a time when they were not around to talk?

"Bruno, we didn't mean to eavesdrop."

"I know."

"Bruno, there's something that I don't know if I should say."

"What is it?"

"Actually, when your sister came that day... At first, we thought she was your biological sister, so we didn't think much of it. Later, Freddy told us you two were only childhood sweethearts." "So?"

"The way the girl looks at you, it is indeed quite different."

"We're just thinking out loud, that's all."

"I had a neighbor who was in a similar situation as you and your sister. That girl also couldn't tell the difference between reliance and

love. She regarded her reline

her childhood sweetheart as love. It wasn't until he found a girlfriend and she found a boyfriend that she realized her true feelings." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Hearing that, Bruno fell silent.

"So, Freddy's words may sound quite selfish, but they are spot-on."

"So you guys are saying I should deceive her?"

Bruno pursed his lips and learned that he could not do it.
