âIs something wrong?â William asked.
âYesterday, after Mason came home, he said he broke up with Sister Veronica,â Jasper said. âI was really confused. They seemed to have a good relationship before, didnât they?â
âDid Mason say why they broke up?â William asked.
âHe said he was tired,â Jasper said. âBreaking up for this reason is just ridiculous! Should I go and ask him what really happened? Butâ¦â
Jasper hesitated. Although she really wanted to find out what happened between Mason and Sister Veronica, they rarely talked about relationship issues, and Mason was generally a man of few words.
She didnât know how to broach the subject.
As for Sister Veronica, Jasper had sent a tentative text message to her earlier in the day, but she hadnât replied. Jasper didnât want to ask again.
After all, based on yesterdayâs situation, it seemed that Mason had dumped Sister Veronica. He said he was tired, so they broke up. Sister Veronica seemed to be the unlucky victim! She was probably very upset.
âLet me ask your Mason,â William said, noticing Jasperâs hesitation.
âYou ask him?â Jasper was surprised. âWill Mason tell you?â
Of the triplets, William and Mason had the weakest relationship. They only exchanged a few greetings every time they met.
âAs a guy, there might be some things that are easier to talk about,â William said.
Jasper thought about it and nodded. âThat would be great. I really donât know what happened between them.â
âItâs not a bother. Itâs only natural for a boyfriend to help his girlfriend in times of trouble,â William said.
Jasper suddenly hugged Williamâs waist and buried her face in his chest. âLetâs never break up for no reason like this again. And you canât say things like âIâm tiredâ like Mason did!â
William hugged Jasper back with both arms. âWe will never have a day of breaking up, so you canât think about these things. I will never say âbreak upâ to you!â
Even if one day in the future, she comes to him to say goodbye, he will desperately try to keep her, make her change her mind, and be with him again.
She chose him, which is the luckiest thing in his life, so he will cherish this luck even more!
In the afternoon, on his way to find Mason, William ran into Lawrence on the schoolâs tree-lined path.
At the moment they passed each other, William suddenly said, âWait!â
Lawrence paused. âWhatâs up, Mr. Barlow?â
William suddenly raised his hand and punched Lawrence in the face.
Lawrence stumbled back two steps and touched his mouth, which was bleeding.
He spat, âMr. Barlow, do you want to be punished by the school for hitting someone? Or do you think the Barlow familyâs donation to the school can easily solve this matter without any consequences?â
âPunished?â William sneered. âIt doesnât matter if Iâm punished! I just want you to understand that if you ever dare to force Jasper again and do anything excessive to her, I will not let you go!â
Lawrence suddenly laughed. âDid she tell you? That I kissed her?â
Williamâs face turned ugly.
But Lawrence seemed even more pleased. âSpeaking of which, her lips are really soft. Kissing her feels greatâ¦â
