Chapter 1075 Cody, I Like You (1/2)

”What's the matter?”

Cody asked Irene, after they had found a quieter spot further away from the noise around the swimming pool.

”Cody, I like you!”

Irene summoned up all her courage and blurted out the words, forcing herself to look him in the eyes. Immediately she felt her face starting to heat up and hoped that her face wouldn't get too red.

She had wanted to confess her feelings to him for a long time now, but kept postponing it because she just couldn't find the courage to do so. She knew that Cody was in good terms with the An family. In fact, she had even heard rumors that the An family was likely to give him their daughter's hand in marriage. She could still remember the heartbreak she had felt, even though it was only hearsay.

But today.

she had not only seen, but also tested Sally's response for herself. If the two of them were really in a relationship, there was no way Sally could be so calm.

It probably meant that Sally wasn't really that into him, or possibly not even had feelings for him at all.

And if that was the case, then didn't it mean that it wouldn't be an issue if she tried to pursue Cody?

Irene's voice seemed to be a little too loud, attracting the attention of several people near them. They stared at the two of them then looked away quickly, trying not to be nosy but still secretly paying attention to the couple.

Cody was silent for a moment. He looked over at Sally who was still swimming happily with other boys, oblivious to what was happening. She was totally focused on the game she was playing with the boys.

”Cody, can't you see what's in front of you, now? That girl that you like doesn't like you back. She doesn't even care about you! Do you really think she's worth wasting your time on?”

Irene looked in Sally's direction too. It was undeniable that she had a cheerful, optimistic personality that made her attractive to guys and she could also get along well with anyone. But to put it bluntly, she could be a little heartless at times. Or maybe she just didn't realize how hurtful her behavior was.

Either way, it was a painful thing to fall in love with such a person.

”It's none of your business,”

Cody told her coolly as he tore his gaze away from Sally.

”Cody! Listen to me. We only have one short, precious life. I know that you grew up with her, which means that you've already wasted so many years on her. Our years on Earth are limited. Do you really want to waste more of your valuable time?”
