Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1511

She didn't know how much of those words she could believe.

What if Harold was lying to her?

Would it be inappropriate for her to speak nonsense in front of his "true love"?

"Actually, Harold really loves you," Felicia Bishop said, her lips curling into a soft chuckle.

Lorelei Bellamy looked up at Felicia, her eyes somewhat bewildered.

"To be honest, back in middle school, I confessed my feelings to him," Felicia said, maintaining her smile. "But he rejected me right on the spot."

Lorelei listened quietly, her emotions in a tangled knot.

"His reason for rejecting me was simple." Felicia looked at Lorelei and continued, "He said he had already given his heart to a girl, and she was the only one he ever planned to marry."

"I almost laughed when I heard that."

Felicia's lips hooked into a bitter smile. "I thought it was just teenage romance—who thinks that far ahead? How many middle school sweethearts actually make it down the aisle?"

"I never expected him to actually marry her." Felicia's smile faded, her expression turning earnest. "That's when I realized the person he loved was you."

Lorelei sat frozen, her mind going blank and a tingling sensation washing over her scalp.

"The person he liked was always me?" Lorelei opened her mouth, her voice coming out in a hoarse whisper.

"Yeah, the one he loved has always been you." Felicia nodded. "From middle school until now. Only you."

Lorelei remained stunned, momentarily losing her ability to process anything.

She had always believed Felicia was the woman he loved...

For the past three years, had she just been jealous of herself?

"So I was really curious. How could a man as fiercely loyal as him easily consider divorcing the woman he deeply loved?"

Felicia gave a wry smile. "Over the years, he pushed himself to the absolute limit researching Eleanor's condition. He collapsed because he hadn't slept for two days and two nights."

"I once asked him why he pushed himself so hard." Felicia sighed softly. "Because Eleanor's case was incredibly complex."
