Chapter 281 Get Out

• Why don’t I work a little harder to make sure that I’m the one who’s going to always be there for him? I guess it’s because I’m afraid. I’m afraid he’ll abandon me, and I’m afraid I’ll end up as nothing more than a dirty stain in his life and a joke to the public. He’s such an outstanding individual; he’s the national crush! Everyone has their eyes on him! He shouldn’t have to suffer negative rumors or gossip just for the sake of dating me or any other girl. With that thought in mind, Marilyn shook her head firmly. “I’ll never go for him unless he insists that he wants to date me.”
• “Why?” Jocelyn asked.
• Why? Marilyn blinked as she put on a smile that didn’t seem to reach her eyes. A hint of sadness and hopelessness could be seen in her eyes as she responded to Jocelyn’s question. “I don’t want him to date me just because he feels pressured by my feelings for him. I also don’t want others to criticize or laugh at him just because I am not good enough for him.”
