Chapter 2617
“Roxy, get up.” A voice sounded suddenly.
Leah’s expression changed slightly. She turned around instantly and saw Zephir approaching them. Just as she was
about to explain herself, Zephir passed by her, walked up to Roxy, and helped her up.
Roxy shrank into his arms tremblingly. “Zephir, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have asked Ms. Younge out to explain
myself. I only did so because I don’t want Ms. Younge to misunderstand.”
Zephir took off his coat and wrapped it around her.
Leah was so angry that she clenched her hands into fists and gnashed her teeth. “Zephir, what do you mean by
that? Are you telling me that you’ve chosen to believe in her words? I didn’t do anything to her at all!”
“Leah Younge!” Zephir yelled her name out loud and stared at her expressionlessly. “Who else can do such a thing
apart from you?”
Leah froze in place, and her heart gradually sank into pure darkness.

Her eyes were slightly bloodshot, and her voice sounded hoarse. “So, you’ve chosen to believe in her…”
‘We’ve known each other for so many years, but in the end, I can’t even compare myself to Roxy, someone he’s
only known for a few months?’
Zephir frowned, and his expression remained unchanged. “Why not? Didn’t you use the exact same method against
someone else when we were in high school?”
He was referring to what had happened to Lisa back then.
‘I did bully Lisa when I was younger, but I never bullied anyone for no reason. I just couldn’t let Lisa get away with
hypocrisy. But he’s actually using these things as his bullets to teach me a lesson now?’
Zephir took a deep breath. “Leah, if you still consider me as a friend, you’ll apologize to Roxy.”
After a while, Leah sneered. “What if I don’t want to do so?”
He did not utter a single word.
Leah pointed at Roxy. “You’re actually forcing me to apologize to a stand-in? Why should I apologize? I’ve not done
anything. It’s obvious that she’s the one who’s directing and putting on the show all by herself-”
“Have you said enough?” Zephir was on the brink of losing his head. “You keep referring to her as a double. Hah,

are you jealous of Roxy?”
Leah’s cheeks were pale, and her heart was oozing blood from the pain.
‘Am I just so unbearable to him?’
“Zephir, do you really want me to apologize to her?”
“Yes.” Zephir spoke without any hesitation and then added, “Shouldn’t you apologize when you’ve done something
wrong? Leah, our families have a good relationship. As long as you apologize, I’ll never bring up what happened
today again.”
Leah’s voice sounded hoarse. “What if I don’t do so?”
Zephir stared at her for a long time. “Then there’s no need for us to contact each other from now on.”
A droplet of warm tears rolled out of Leah’s eye socket. Her vision became blurred, and her heart was on
the verge of freezing. “Zephir Gosling, I truly regret…”
‘I regret chasing after you with all my heart and soul all these years. I regret that for a moment, I actually dreamed

that you’d look back and find out that I’ve never left.
‘But now, everything is already a foregone conclusion.
‘Everything else is no longer necessary.’
“Zephir Gosling, since you said so today, I hope you won’t regret it. From now on, anything that’s related to you will
have nothing to do with me! As for the apology, I, Leah Younge, will never apologize to her, Roxy Van Damme, in
my life,” Leah yelled hysterically at the top of her lungs.
After that, she felt as if her heart had been ripped out.
Zephir pursed his lips tightly as his expression tensed up. “You-”
The sound of someone clapping came from somewhere in the cafe. “Oh my, what a wonderful show.”
Leah was astonished. She turned around, only to see Morrison come out of nowhere.
‘It’s him?’
Morrison stopped beside the two, and Zephir frowned. “Who are you?”
“Me?” Morrison crossed his arms and smirked. “I’m a witness, of course.”
Roxy’s pupils constricted for a split second, and a hint of panic flashed across her eyes.
