Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 509

-

Not far from the dance floor, in a dim corner, Riley clutched a nearly untouched glass of red wine, his eyes fixed on the fiery, dazzling figure on the dance floor.

The word “heartbroken” was written all over his face, and he looked completely dejected.

Darius, having just escaped from his own elders, saw his friend staring blankly with a wine glass and nudged him with his elbow. “Riley, you’re so captivated by your goddess you can’t even look away? Are you in a trance?”

Riley didn’t answer, just let out a heavy sigh.

He lifted the glass and drained the red wine in one go, the taste bitter on his tongue. A gloomy cloud seemed to settle over him.

Darius had never seen his friend look so defeated. He snatched the empty glass from his hand and slung an arm around his neck. “Riley, did you find out your goddess is Ghost Doctor and suddenly feel you’re not worthy of her?”

After all, one was a world-renowned doctor who could snatch people from the clutches of death itself, while the other was a thoroughgoing playboy. They were indeed polar opposites.

“Then again, with a title like Ghost Doctor, no one would feel worthy standing in front of her,” Trevor chimed in, seeing Riley’s continued silence. He clapped Riley on the shoulder. “Riley, don’t lose heart…”

“If you put it that way…” Darius stared at the dancing couple on the floor. “Mr. Blackwood and Ghost Doctor actually look… pretty good together.”

Trevor nudged Darius, about to tell him to shut up, but when his gaze followed Darius’s to the two people on the dance floor, the words got stuck in his throat.

He swallowed hard and turned to Darius, utterly shocked. “Wait… isn’t Mr. Blackwood gay? Since when does he let women get close to him? They’re so close they’re practically hugging! This—this… they actually look really good together.”
