The Lethal Charm of the First Love novel Chapter 22

"From the first time we met as freshmen, when you said your name was Hannah Torres, I remembered it…"

Jordan's story made me see my foolish younger self in a new light.

He had fallen for me even earlier than I had for him.

He was just a step too late in confessing.

And the way I expressed my feelings was wrong from the very beginning.

I tempted him with what he lacked the most.

That made it hard for him to speak up.

He had actually said many times that he liked me.

But no one believed him.

Everyone thought he was lying, just trying to please me.

Eventually, I believed it, and even he almost started to believe it too.

Was he in love with Hannah, or just with my help paying his grandfather's medical bills?

After being mocked countless times and realizing the gap between us over and over again, Jordan couldn't figure it out himself anymore.

He was conflicted and twisted, torturing himself day after day.

Anyone else could help him.

But I couldn't.
