Chapter 1280:
“You don’t want Jeranymore?” Jesse asked.
He thought she'd at least pause to think it over, but to his surprise, she barely hesitated before blurting, “Nope.”
“Why?” Jesse asked, genuinely interested for once.
“He askedif I'd csee him tomorrow,” Nina said, her voice touched with frustration. “I told him I'd play
with Nick first, then see him once we got home. But then he said if | didn’t ctomorrow, don’t bother finding
him again.”
Jesse raised a brow.
Nina huffed, “Whatever. I've got Nick anyway.”
That remark drew everyone's attention to her.
“Your friendship with Jeris that fragile?” Jesse asked, testing her logic.
“He threatenedfirst,” Nina said with perfect clarity. “I told him I'm staying at Aunt Greta’s, and he still
insisted | show up. That's not fair.”
Her mom always said it was the quality of friends that mattered, not the quantity. Sure, she liked Jerome—he was
cute. But that didn’t mean she had to stick around when he said hurtful things out of nowhere. She had other
friends too.

“You sure you're not going to talk to him again?” Jesse pressed, dead serious.
“Right now, yes,” Nina replied with a stubborn pout—though she left herself swiggle room. “But maybe not
forever.”
After all, it wasn’t easy to find someone as cute as Jerome. If he apologized properly, she'd be kind enough to
forgive him.
Jesse understood right away—she was just having a small spat with Jerome.
Greta, clearly intrigued, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and asked, “So, who exactly is this Jerome? He
must be something special if she’s this torn up.”
“He's really cute! Just like Jesse!” Nina beamed. “And he can cook too! He's amazing!”
Hearing that, Greta and Jesse both looked stunned.
No doubt about it—she was already wrapped around Jerome's little finger.

Since Nina still wanted to hang out with Nick next door, she and Jesse ended up staying a few more days at
Greta’s.
Over the past few days, Jerhad only called Nina once—on the second day—just to see if she wanted to hang
out with him.
As expected, Nina turned him down.
After that, neither of them had reached out again.
