Reborn to My Engagement Niyl
Chapter 87 I Held Up My End
Having been set up, Janessa was instantly filled with resentment.
However, she set the rule herself. Besides, the birthday party was still in progress, with many classmates looking on.
In order to maintain her image. Janessa had no choice but to force herself to suppress the anger within her
Poised and dignified, she said, “All right, I held up my end. I accepted my loss gracefully, so don’t you dare
call me a coward.”
At that point, her classmates had had their fill of the show, so they let the matter go
They then returned to their seats and continued making merry. Some played beer pong while others saTHE
Relieved, Janessa turned around and headed to the restroom.
By then, Christopher had finally realized what had happened and promptly went after her.
In the corridor, he grabbed Janessa’s hand firmly, pulling her back forcefully.
“Janessa, have you lost your mind?” Christopher questioned angrily.
Janessa immediately shook his hand off hard. “Stop blaming me! Do you think I wanted that to happen? Given the circumstances at that time, what else could I have done??
Christopher rolled his eyes, utterly baffled. “But you kissed me before Madelyn and so many of our classmates. Weren’t you intentionally creating a misunderstanding? If Madelyn misunderstands our relationship, how would I pursue her in the future?”
“What has it got to do with me?”
For a moment, Janessa grew somewhat emotional.
I didn’t want it to happen either! How would I have known that my original plan to teach Madelyn a lesson would backfire?
At her attitude, Christopher immediately blew a fuse.
“Hey, what did you mean by that, Janessa? Didn’t we agree to collaborate? We had a deal that you’d help me win over Madelyn, and you’d get Sebastian in return. What’s the matter? Are you having second thoughts now?”
“No, I’m not…” Janessa stammered, speaking incoherently.
Fine, then. Since you’re unwilling to help me, you can forget about ever being with Sebastian. Let’s leave it at that!” Furious, Christopher went all out.
Janessa naturally yearned to have Sebastian. Even in her dreams, she dreamt of being with him.
And so, she could only sigh in resignation.

Janessa took a deep breath and pondered calmly.

In the end, she told him, “It’s okay. Just go and explain everything to her properly. After all, it was our classmates who stirred things up. It wasn’t your fault. She’s so naive, she’ll be easy to convince. Besides, I’ll also make things clear with her, so stop overthinking it.”
At present, that was the only solution left.
At that moment, Madelyn was in high spirits in the private room after having taught Janessa a lesson earlier.
On the screen at the karaoke lounge, someone sang a popular song. She found herself happily humming along.
Janessa probably never imagined that she would be the one at a disadvantage today, huh? But serves her right for frequently setting others up. Not only did she plot against me, but she also targeted Jillian. Therefore, it’s what she deserves to have a taste of her own medicine.
As those gleeful thoughts played in her mind, she picked up her handbag.
Then, she said to the others, “You guys carry on and have fun. I’m off to the restroom to freshen up”
All her classmates nodded without giving it any mind.
In reality, going to the restroom was nothing more than an excuse.
Madelyn didn’t want to stay there in the first place. Now that she had her fill of fun, she took advantage of the lull and furtively slipped away.
In no time, Janessa and Christopher returned.
Initially, they intended to seek Madelyn out to explain things. However, there was no sign of her anywhere.
So, they asked, “Where’s Madelyn?”
Their classmates around them replied, “Oh, the birthday girl has gone to freshen up. She’ll be back shortly.”
Upon hearing that, both Janessa and Christopher nodded.
Since she was said to have gone to freshen up, they didn’t suspect anything amiss.
Christopher’s mind whirred. I’ve got to explain things nicely later. I can’t have her misunderstanding me.
After leaving the private room, Madelyn didn’t actually go home..
She recalled that Sebastian entered the adjacent private room earlier and reckoned that he probably hadn’t come out yet.
And so, she found a spot by a staircase and waited there for him.
In order to remain unnoticed, she hid at the side in advance whenever a classmate passed by
Once her classmate had left, she cautiously poked her head out again to continue keeping watch.

While waiting, Madelyn took the opportunity to carefully survey the club.
Admittedly, Janessa’s sense of aesthetics was actually quite commendable,
The interior design of the club was the epitome of its name–Royal Club..
Finished
The place was adorned with yellow wallpaper featuring dragon motifs everywhere. The club was as opulent as a palace.
Moreover, each private room there had excellent sound insulation. Not a hint of noise could be heard from outside.
Occasionally, couples would pass by with arms draped over each other’s shoulders, whispering sweet nothings. It was rather intriguing
Thus, Madelyn remained waiting there.
However, it seemed as if Sebastian had no intention of coming out. Half an hour passed, but there was still no sign of him..
Madelyn felt inexplicably anxious inwardly. What on earth is he doing?
With that, time gradually ticked by.
After she had waited for about an hour, the door to the private room finally swung open.
At long last, Sebastian came out. But he wasn’t alone, for there were a few others with him.
They were seemingly very polite with each other, treating each other with utmost courtesy,
For a while, one person insisted on escorting the other, and the other insisted on doing the same. In the end, neither of them escorted the other. Instead, they left together.
Madelyn took it all in. These few gentlemen are probably Sebastian’s business associates, huh?
Although the others appeared to be significantly older than Sebastian, they all crowded before him to
converse.
From that alone, Sebastian’s status was as clear as day.
Subsequently, Sebastian saw the others to their cars and waved at them. They then left.
Thereafter, Sebastian retraced his steps.
However, he did not return to the private room but stopped outside the private room where Madelyn celebrated her birthday just now.
Madelyn watched him stand there. Is he planning to go in?
In the end, Sebastian hesitated for some time but ultimately didn’t enter the private room.
Instead, he turned around and stalked off with a dark look on his face.

certainly wouldn’t go in again.
Right then, Sebastian was headed in her direction.
As he was fast approaching, a mischievous smile inexorably crept onto Madelyn’s lips..
Then, as Sebastian walked past, she abruptly reached out.
Exerting a bit of effort, she dragged Sebastian to her completely.
