Connor walked to the door, opened it with his hand, and was about to leave. But at that moment, Vanessa suddenly exclaimed, "Connor, didn't you always want to know why I lied to you about giving perfume to Chelsea?"
"Yeah!" Connor turned his head and glanced at Vanessa.
"Then I'll tell you now!" Vanessa mustered her courage and walked up to Connor. She looked at him and said, "I deliberately lied to you back then because I liked you. When I heard you say you were going to give another woman a gift, I felt jealous. Did you know?"
He was completely stunned after hearing her words. He stuttered, "Vanessa, what kind of joke are you making? Are you... maybe a little drunk?"
"I haven't drunk anything. Everything I'm saying now is serious. I don't know when I started liking you, but I can be certain that I've truly fallen in love with you. That's why I stayed, and that's why I felt jealous because of you!" she exclaimed passionately.
