Once everything was settled , everyone headed back to their respective tents . After Teresa settled into the tent , Troy ducked his head and stepped inside . They sat across from each other , the silence between them almost comfortable , neither choosing to break it .

After a moment , Teresa was about to speak , but Troy beat her to it . " I can see there's something bothering you . You've seemed out of it all day , didn't really enjoy yourself , right ? You probably decided to stay the night just so you wouldn't kill the vibe for everyone else ."

" Troy just shrugged , unfazed . " Was it a chick ? " Teresa confirmed , " Yeah , it was .

" Troy grinned , " No worries , she's already on my block list . " Teresa blurted out nervously , " Troy , you- " Troy grabbed her hand and , with a firm but gentle tug , drew her right up against him . He lowered his head , eyes locked on hers , his voice dropping to a low , dangerous edge . " If it's a woman , it doesn't matter if I add her or not .

" Do you know what people usually get up to at this hour ? " Teresa tried to wriggle free , but with Troy still nursing his injury , she didn't dare use force - and that meant . she couldn't really push him off , no matter how hard she tried . She shot him a challenging look and demanded , " So what exactly are we supposed to do ?

" Troy dipped his head , his face nearly pressed against hers , lips grazing her ear as he whispered , " Make love . " He let the words linger in the air , teasing , impossible not to let your thoughts run wild . Teresa scoffed loudly , knowing he was being ridiculous . " Get off me ! " As she spoke , she reached out and tried to push Troy off , careful not to hurt him . The next second , Troy hissed through his teeth in pain , unable to hold back . " Ah ... " Hearing this , Teresa asked anxiously , " Are you okay ? " Her face showed pure worry and panic .

Seeing the worried look on her face , Troy suddenly started laughing , his grin deepening . " I was just joking . " Teresa , clearly irritated , snapped , " Get off me . Let's just sit down and have a real conversation . " Troy still didn't let go . He looked her in the eyes and said , " Promise me you're not about to tell me something that'll ruin my mood ." Teresa kept struggling . " I can't promise you that ." Troy replied , " Then maybe don't say it ." Teresa noticed the hint of unease in Troy's eyes - it seemed like he already suspected something .

So she decided not to drag it out any longer and told him directly , " I know who your savior is . " Troy's smile faded away . He lowered his voice and asked , " So you're saying the person who saved me is the same one you wanted me to add on WhatsApp ? " Teresa nodded . " Yes " Troy gripped Teresa's arm , his hold tightening with frustration , voice rough and gritty through clenched teeth . " Are you seriously making up this story just to shut me out ?

Teresa instinctively pushed at him , now completely ignoring the fact that he was still injured . But no matter how hard she fought , Troy wouldn't loosen his hold .

It wasn't until the strong , metallic taste of blood filled her mouth that Troy finally relented and let her go . Teresa couldn't even tell if the blood was hers or Troy's . Troy's face was shrouded in shadow . Teresa looked up , barely able to make out the shape of his features . His eyes were shadowed by his lashes ; Teresa couldn't read a thing - he was a complete mystery to her right now . Teresa stubbornly wiped the blood from her lips , still refusing to budge . " I'm telling you , every word is true , " she said to Troy . Troy let out a cold , almost mocking laugh .

" So what if it is ? Does the truth even matter ? " She couldn't make out Troy's face , nor guess what he really felt . ' Is he upset ? ' Teresa thought to herself , picking up on the undertone hidden in his words . Troy didn't let up , his voice a little shaky but pushing for answers . " If you'd been the one to find me first , would you have left me there ? With the way you are ... no way . So the person who saved me - it could only be you , right ? Only you ... " Teresa hesitated before speaking , her voice honest but uncertain . " Troy , I really can't say .

I mean it - I honestly don't know if I would've saved you or not . " Nobody can say for sure about things that haven't really happened ... Not even Teresa herself could promise she'd rush to rescue Troy . Troy finally let go and lay back on his side of the tent , staring up at the transparent ceiling as the stars twinkled overhead . The night looked as beautiful as ever , but something between them had definitely changed . After Troy finally moved off her , Teresa felt herself relax a little . She let out a couple steady breaths before asking , " Did you already know ?

" Troy answered , " Yeah . " Teresa pressed , " So when did you find out ? " Troy said , " Pretty much when we were getting ready to stay over . She sent me a WhatsApp request and left a 17:18 Mon , Oct 20 Chapter 350 note telling me the truth about back then . " Teresa just gave a flat , indifferent " Mm . " Troy gave her a sharp look .

Who would've guessed , in the end , she was the one who'd taken a spot in his life that never even belonged to her . She replied with a bittersweet smile . " Honestly , you shouldn't have treated me so well ." Troy turned her way , a sly smirk on his face . " We kissed , you let me touch you - and now you wanna act like it was nothing ? " Teresa pushed herself upright , her gaze lingering on Troy , emotions tangled up in her eyes . After a moment , Teresa finally broke the silence , her tone gentle but resolute . " I'm not the one you want . Holding on to me like this ... there's no point .

" With those words , Teresa pushed aside the tent flap and walked out . Troy watched her go , lips parted , wanting to call out to her - but the words just died in his throat , leaving him silent . For once , he didn't go running after her like he always did . It was only at that moment that it truly hit him - why Teresa always said she didn't know him , and why she kept reminding him she'd never promised him anything .
