"I agree," one of the ladies said.
"We'll do this… and then…"
As the ladies discussed how to teach Yolanda a lesson, Gavin saw Bryce coming up the stairs, looking for Yolanda as well. He instinctively stopped and watched Bryce's ascent.
Gavin had heard the rumors about Bryce's interest in Yolanda, but he was confident in Yolanda's affection for him and their relationship.
He wouldn't be like those narrow-minded men who tried to control their partners and restrict their freedom.
Of course, not limiting Yolanda didn't mean he'd be indifferent to anyone who had improper intentions toward her.
Perhaps sensing Gavin's cold, oppressive gaze, Bryce looked up and slowed his steps.
"Looking for Yolanda?" Gavin asked.
The classrooms on the second floor were for lower-year students. As a senior, Bryce's only reason for being there would be to find someone.
"It's none of your business." The voice of the usually gentle Bryce grew cold as he sensed Gavin's hostility.
He had also heard the rumors but believed Gavin was unworthy of Yolanda. A man who had a fiancée but still seduced Yolanda and caused her to be scorned didn't deserve to be with her at all.
Bryce had resigned himself to quietly protecting Yolanda if she didn't accept him. But Gavin was certainly not the man who should be with her. He couldn't let Yolanda be deceived by someone as selfish and overbearing as Gavin.
