Chapter 984

Bella, who was walking shoulder to shoulder with Feena, had also noticed Jack. Her delicate frame was racked with trembles as a look of disbelief flickered in her eyes. Her gaze was glued to Jack as a storm of complicated emotions raged within her eyes.

However, Bella was disappointed when she noticed that Jack had only glanced at her briefly from the corner of his eyes. He had then dedicated all his attention to Feena. The fondness in his gaze matched the emotion present in Feena's gaze. Since there were too many reporters on the scene, Jack and Feena couldn't communicate directly, so they could only look at each other from afar. Jack could only watch as Feena and Bella walked backstage to prepare for their rehearsal.

He kept his eyes trained on them and the crowd that surrounded them as they made their way slowly to the rehearsal hall. Only after they disappeared from his line of sight, did Jack reluctant tear his gaze away.

Luca glanced at his watch and said, "Jack, give me your phone number. I need to go in for the time being. After rehearsals are done, I'll call you. Let's have a meal tonight. We won't leave if we're not drunk out of our minds!"

Jack nodded as Luca saved his number in his phone. He even called Jack to make sure he had the correct number. Before taking his leave, Luca said, "Oh! Actually, why don't you wait for me in the dressing room backstage? The rehearsal shouldn't take too long."

After experiencing countless years of training, Luca had trained himself to be immensely observant. He had noticed the chemistry between Jack and Feena and was certain that Feena was Jack's girlfriend.

Luca had known Feena since a long time ago and shared an amicable relationship with her. He was also aware that Jack and Feena were childhood sweethearts. Not only did they share a similar passion for music, but Jack was also extremely talented. It was only natural for them to end up as a couple.

Jack nodded in response and followed Luca to the waiting area that was located backstage. When Luca went off to rehearse, Jack waited by himself in the dressing room.

His phone suddenly vibrated at that moment. When he picked it up and glanced at the screen, he realized that Feena had sent him a voice message. Jack tapped play on the recording, which allowed Feena's elated voice to broadcast from the device.

"Silly Pig! What are you doing here? Why didn't you let me know that you were coming?"

"I wanted to give you a surprise," Jack replied.

Warmth bubbled in Jack's heart when he recalled how Feena had been unable to tear her eyes away from him when she first spotted him.

"Hmph! You'll have to wait for me then. Why don't we go for dinner after my rehearsals are over?"

"Luca also invited me for dinner after I bumped into him. Why don't we all have dinner together?"

Feena fell silent for a few moments

as if she was reluctant to have

someone impose on her private time

with Jack. But she also knew that Jack and Luca were not only Schoolmates, but

so dormmates. They must have a lot to talk about now that they were face to face.

She answered gently, "Okay then. But..... No one is allowed to disturb us later tonight!"

Feena's gentle voice was laced with flirtatious tones, which conjured up intimate scenes in Jack's mind He smiled as he replied Alright Did you... miss me a lot, Lil Silly?"

"I didn't say that, don't put words in my mouth." Feena harrumphed. "You're the one who missed me, right? Why would you make a trip to Tarthy City just to see me if you didn't?"

Although Feena was verbally

denying Jack's question, her heart had overflowed with yearning for him since a long time ago. She had expressed her desire for Jack to seek her out more than once when she was chatting with her friends. But now that Jack had actually. made an appearagge, she was toge

thin-skinned to admit it, unable to resist her desire to save her reputation.
