NovelFameChapter 1480:
A laugh broke from Nyla as if a lightbulb had just switched on in her head. “Couldn't agree more.”
“Didn’t you say you needed someone to lean on? Go for it,” Jessica said, taking a seat beside her.
Out of nowhere, Nyla asked, “Do you findunbearable?”
“Absolutely,” Jessica answered right away.
Nyla pressed further. “So, you don’t likeat all?”
Jessica shot her a look. “Would you want anyone who argued with you nonstop?”
“Not a chance,” Nyla admitted, her laughter softer than usual. Sof the edge had left her voice. “So if you
can’t stand me, why did you bother showing up tonight?”
That question left Jessica quiet. She wondered if she had lost her senses coming here at all.
“Honestly, you're so soft, you'd probably forgive someone right after they stabbed you in the back,” Nyla said,
her tone unusually honest. At the stime, she couldn’t shake the feeling that, for all their arguments, Jessica
was someone she could actually rely on.
“What's your point?” Jessica frowned, sensing there was more to this summons.

Without a word, Nyla got up and poured two glasses of wine. She handed one over. “Just drink witha bit.”
Melvin stepped forward, intervening before Jessica could take the glass. He barely knew Nyla, but her vibe

“Take it easy,” Nyla said, holding her ground. “It’s only regular wine. Nothing weird in it.”
Melvin remained firmly between them, unwilling to let Jessica take any risks. Nyla grabbed an unopened beer,
passing it to Jessica, then picked one for herself. “How about this? If I'd known you'd be so stiff, | wouldn't have
bothered fighting Jessica for you earlier. So dull.”
Jessica let out a quiet sigh. “You're acting really off tonight.”
With a practiced flick, Nyla opened Jessica's bottle and handed it over. Her words were just as biting. “You're dull
yourself. Why guard him so closely?”

“Someone who swaps boyfriends as often as new clothes wouldn't get it,” Jessica shot back without thinking.
She had no idea what Nyla’s history really was.
“There was a twhen | had someone who always protected me. | was his whole world.” Nyla twisted open her
own bottle and took a slow sip, her voice losing sof its usual edge. “We lasted four years, but in the end,
reality won.”
Jessica was thrown by the confession. Reality? But wasn’t Nyla’'s family well-off?
“Did your parents not approve of him?” That was the only explanation Jessica could cup with.
