NovelEnglish"Seriously, Roseanne?" Murray turned his gaze to her, his voice dripping with disdain. "Out of everyone you could flirt with, you chose him? Are you happy now?" Roseanne felt a rush of anger and injustice. She was the one who got dragged into this mess without reason. What did she do to deserve that? Facing Murray's accusation, Corley's calmness was almost eerie. He touched the bruise on his nose, a cold smile playing on his lips. "What do you think we were doing? You saw everything, didn't you?" Murray's face was devoid of emotion. "So, you've got nothing to explain?" "What's there to explain? That I like Roseanne? That I want to date her?" Corley shot back.
At those words, Roseanne's face turned pale.
Murray's eyes burned with rage as he clenched his fists, gearing up to go back at Corley.
"Damn it! Do you like her? Want to date her? What gives you the right?" Taking a punch that turned his head, Corley quickly moved to shield Roseanne behind him. "What? Why can't I?" The protective gesture fueled Murray's anger further. He spat out each word, "Of course you can't!" Corley teased, "And who are you to say that? An ex-boyfriend who's already history?" Murray retorted, "Whether it's over is up to me. Who do you think you are?" Corley's face showed a hint of guilt. "Sorry, but you were the one who let go first." "That doesn't mean you get to chase after her! Corley, are you that desperate? Every man knows he can't date his best friend's girl!" "Murray, calm down. Today, people break up and get back on all the time. If she's not with you, does it mean Roseanne can never be with anyone else? If not me, it would be someone else." The thought of Roseanne living a happy life with another man blew Murray's mind off. His hands trembled uncontrollably, his mind a blank When he regained his senses, his fists were already flying toward Corley. Corley dodged quickly but couldn't avoid all the blows because he had to protect Roseanne.
