HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 1079

“Wow, apparently that rumor didn’t take long at all to become obvious.”

The atmosphere around them instantly changed.

Eli turned around. Naomi frowned, while Chris immediately looked at Natalie with displeasure.

Natalie continued in a light tone, as if she were only joking. “It’s only been a few days since you broke up with David, and now you’re already so close to Miller’s captain. You two really do look very close.”

Josh, who had been smiling moments before, immediately stopped. His gaze turned sharp when he heard the remark. “What do you mean?” he asked.

Natalie pretended to be surprised. “I’m only saying what I see.”

“Then look more carefully before you speak.” Josh’s voice began to harden. He stood a little straighter, clearly displeased with the way Natalie was talking about Eli.

Natalie looked at Josh for a few seconds, then smiled faintly. “Why are you offended? Didn’t I just say something that a lot of people on campus have already been talking about?”

“Josh,” Eli called softly, trying to stop him. “Just leave it.”

However, Josh did not immediately take his eyes off Natalie. “What do you mean, almost everyone on campus has been talking about it?”

Natalie smiled brightly. “Oh, Eli. Didn’t you tell your boyfriend something?”

Josh stared intently at Eli. “What happened?”

“It’s not important,” Eli replied.

On the other side, David’s jaw tightened. He stood silently, but his eyes continued watching Josh and Eli. Seeing Josh defend Eli so quickly only made the uncomfortable feeling he had been holding back return.

Then David’s presence drew Eli’s attention slightly. “Oh, what a coincidence. The Raven team captain is here too.” Eli took a small step in front of Josh. “I just want to make everything clear.”

Eli stared intently at David. “As the rumors going around say, I’m David’s girlfriend. I was,” the girl quickly corrected herself. “But now, our relationship is over. If you believe what’s being spread out there, then go ahead.”
