Chapter 52 - 52: Mina’s Misunderstanding
“Connor, your proof sounds very forced!
“Put aside the fact that many people have the same initials and that ‘CeeM’ has four alphabets, should I believe that everyone with those initials in their names is CeeM then?”
After hearing Connor’s so-called proof, Mina rolled her eyes. It was evident that she did not believe him.
Connor was speechless. He smiled wryly and said, “Well, even if you don’t believe that 1 am CeeM, 1 know that the person you’re going to see tomorrow is a fake. So whatever it is, you shouldn’t go and meet him!”
Connor looked at Mina said in a deep voice.
“What makes you think he’s an impostor? He used CeeM’s Facebook account to add me as a friend, that means he is CeeM!”
Mina seemed to be a little upset now.
“1 don’t care how he added you on Facebook. Whatever it is, you shouldn’t go and meet this person tomorrow!”
Connor was no longer in the mood to prove his identity, nor was he in the mood to explain to Mina the truth of this matter. He just didn’t want to see Mina being deceived!
“Connor, what’s going on with you today? Why Can’t I go to meet that person?” Mina looked at him and asked, puzzled.
“Because that person is a liar!” Connor snapped.
Mina was shocked. A trace of anger flashed in her eyes. She then said to Connor coldly, “Connor McDonald, aren’t you pushing it a little bit too far?”
“How am I pushing it too far?”
Connor looked at Mina and asked with a puzzled expression.
“How can you say that he is a liar? CeeM has helped me so much, and he has given me so many gifts. How can you call him a liar? If he is a liar, 1 hope there will be more liars in this world then!” Mina shouted.
Obviously, Mina would not believe a single word that Connor said.
“Whether he is a liar or not, you cannot meet him!”
Connor was not in the mood to explain more to her, so he shut down the conversation firmly.
“Connor McDonald, who do you think you are? What does my meeting with him have to do with you? Aren’t you overthinking things?”
Mina shouted agitatedly.
“I am overthinking?”
When Connor heard that, he suddenly felt as if his heart had been stabbed hard.
Didn’t Connor do all this for Mina?
But in Mina’s eyes, he was just a busybody.
Connor looked at Mina in a daze. It was hard to describe his mood at this time. In Mina’s eyes, he did not think that everything he had done would look like he was a self-serving person.
“Connor, I know what you’re thinking. You feel jealous that I am going on a date with CeeM because you like me, don’t you? That is why you have made up such a story to trick me. You just want to stop me from meeting CeeM, no?”
Mina seemed provoked by what Connor said. She simply couldn’t tolerate someone speaking negatively about CeeM. So, she had started to shut Connor down.
“Me liking you? When did I say that I like you?”
Connor was angry now.
Although Mina was beautiful and had a very sexy figure, Connor was not attracted to Mina at all!
Even when Connor was tuning into Mina’s live stream, it was only because Mina was his housemate. He didn’t mean anything by it. He was only a good housemate.
“Are you still denying it now?”
Mina looked at Connor and sneered before continuing, “Connor McDonald, let me remind you to think too highly of yourself. Although I often chat with you these few days, I only treat you as a normal housemate. 1 don’t have any other intentions toward you. I initially had a positive impression of you, but what you said to me today is disappointing!”
“Hah…”
Connor looked at Mina and smiled helplessly. He had given up on persuading Mina not to meet the imposter.
After all, in Mina’s eyes, he was a terrible person. So even if the so-called CeeM deceived mina, it had nothing to do with him.
“Whatever! I’ve already told you what 1 tell you today. If you don’t believe me, 1 can’t do anything about it. If you want to meet him, then go and meet him!”
Connor said to Mina disappointedly.
Mina was stunned for a moment. Then, she turned around and walked out of Connor’s room.
Connor helplessly watched Mina leave.
In the beginning, he had given Mina those gifts because he wanted to help Mina, but he didn’t expect all of these to happen.
What Mina said earlier really broke Connor’s heart, so he didn’t plan to continue meddling in this.
After closing the door, Connor lay on his bed and closed his eyes, ready to sleep.
But for some reason, Connor couldn’t fall asleep no matter how hard he tried. He felt uneasy.
He wasn’t feeling that way because someone had impersonated him, but because of Mina’s attitude toward him today.
“Maybe in Mina’s eyes, a loser like me isn’t worthy of being her friend, and maybe to her, I am out of her league!”
Connor couldn’t help but sigh softly.
Although Connor didn’t intend to pursue Mina, he still felt very uncomfortable after hearing how Mina spoke to him today.
Even though he was a wealthy man now, he felt that as long as a woman knew his identity, she would throw herself into his arms.
But those who didn’t know about Connor’s wealth would all despise him.
It was so with Mina, and it seemed to be the same for Freya Phillips and Maya Phillips!
“It seems that society nowadays is very materialistic!”
Connor smiled bitterly, then closed his eyes and went to sleep, having pushed thoughts about Mina aside.
The next day.
Eight o’clock in the morning.
After washing up, Connor was prepared to go to class.
However, just as Connor opened the door, he saw Mina walk out of her room.
Mina looked particularly attractive today. She was wearing a body-wrapping T-shirt. She looked busty, and a silver, chunky necklace rested strategically on her sexy collarbone. She seemed extremely dazzling.
She sported a short skirt that accentuated her seductive figure. Complementing her long and straight legs was a pair of black high heels. She looked extremely pleasing to the eye.
When Connor saw Mina’s outfit, he could not help but feel stunned. He knew that Mina was definitely going on a date with the other ‘CeeM’ today.
He was a little disappointed. It seemed that Mina still didn’t believe him.
So he ignored her and walked outside.
“Connor!”
Mina suddenly shouted.
Connor turned to look at her. Then, he asked expressionlessly, “What’s up?”
“About uhh… I’m sorry about last night. I overreacted and overstepped the line.”
Mina walked up to Connor and said softly.
“It’s fine.”
Connor replied indifferently. He did not try to advise Mina not to see that stranger again. Instead, he walked out of the apartment..
