Chapter 25: Did He... Did He Hurt You?

"You've known each other that long?" "We were childhood friends," Matthew revealed, squinting slightly. "Childhood friends?" Farley was equally surprised. "I've known you for a while, and you never mentioned it." Conor observed Stacey without showing any emotion. So, they had a history that went way back Was Matthew trying to rekindle their relationship? "We drifted apart for some time," Matthew continued, his gaze fixed on Stacey's eyes. But where she used to smile at him, now all he could see was icy resentment. That incident must have deeply hurt her. "What happened between you two?" Farley asked curiously. "There was no misunderstanding," Stacey replied coldly. "We simply went our separate ways. Matthew, this is our private matter. Do you need to air it out like this?" Who was he trying to inform?
