She Flash-Married To His Rival by Harber Venus

Juliet was already there when Moira entered the restaurant.

It was Valentine's Day and a weekend, so the restaurant was filled with couples.

Moira hastened over. "Juliet."

"Hey, here comes the married beauty," Juliet quipped.

'What kind of combo is that? Totally out of line,' Moira thought to herself.

Juliet, meanwhile, handed her a menu and continued, "Does Barclay know you're out with me tonight, eyeing some hotties?"

Juliet just had to bring that up.

Seeing Moira silent, she sensed something off. "Come on. Spill it. Who are you exactly? Why are you hijacking my buddy's body?" Moira chuckled and felt embarrassed amidst the crowd. "Come on, not in public! Don't make it so awkward for me!"

"Tsk, what's with the silence earlier?" Juliet probed.

Moira's face flushed, and she just handed her phone over. "Just read it yourself."

She didn't know what to say.

Juliet glanced over the chat history, instantly getting the picture.

She handed back the phone with a look of disdain. "Thanks. I've been deeply moved by your love story."

Moira rolled her eyes. "Seriously, can you focus for a moment?"

Juliet huffed, "I can! It's just that Barclay isn't thrilled about you going out with me to hot guys!"

"You sure have a knack for getting to the heart of things!" Moira replied.

"Right? Are you trying to show off to me? Your husband loves you so much that he's jealous, and you're just casually replying like it's no big deal. If it were me, I'd be sending him kisses from every angle, no holds barred!" Juliet paused and sized up Moira for a moment.

"Moira, are you really sure you like

Barclay?"

Juliet's question was earnest and serious, and Moira felt her face flush under her gaze. "I'm not so clueless that I can't even figure out if I like someone or not." "But your chat history is so... lukewarm," Juliet continued.

Moira hesitated for a moment. "So what should I have done differently?"

Juliet sighed as if frustrated by Moira's lack of initiative. "You could have used some sweet pet names or something. Haven't you heard how other couples talk to each other?"

"Sorry, I haven't," Moira admitted.

Seeing Juliet gearing up to offer some tips on how to flirt, Moira quickly interjected, "I just... I'm not ready for him to know I like him yet."

"Why?" Juliet was genuinely puzzled. Could anyone really hide their feelings for someone they liked?

Moira leaned on her hand and stared at the menu in front of her. "I want to wait until after our collaboration ends."

"Oh, so you've got this great

opportunity, and you're not taking it?

You'd rather start from the same

starting line as everyone else?" Juliet humphed. "Love doesn't wait in line, and you can't just hide your feelings like that. Why bother?"

"Maybe I have high moral standards?" Moira retorted.

Juliet glanced at her. "True, not many married couples sleep separately like you guys do."

Moira felt offended by the remark.

Seeing her reaction, Juliet softened her tone and tried to reassure her. "I understand where you're coming from, but you don't need to feel guilty about it." "Barclay is almost thirty, fully capable of making his own decisions. When he decided to marry you, it wasn't just some accident," Juliet reasoned.

Moira blinked and felt somewhat embarrassed. "It's too soon."

In just over three months, she had developed feelings for Barclay.

Truth be told, she wasn't even fully prepared to enter into another relationship.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
