I Moved On From My Childhood Sweethearts

Synopsis

My four childhood friends were all handsome and refined, like the male leads in a romance novel. At first, I thought I was the female lead, but when Emma Adams, the poor transfer student, showed up, I realized I was actually the mean girl in the story. To stand up for Emma, they showed up at my birthday party with some low-class guy, claiming he was my date, right when my father had intended for me to choose one of them for a political marriage. In the end, my birthday party became a complete laughingstock. Afterward, their families forced them to come over and apologize to me. William Bennett, ever the gentleman, gave a gentle smile. "Olivia, you didn't like him? Looks like your standards are pretty high." Michael Carter, the cocky one, curled his lips into a mocking grin. "Don't tell me you're only willing to marry one of us? Too bad, none of us are interested." James Anderson, always the calm one, frowned and said, "If you hadn't gone around telling everyone Emma was your tagalong, making her a joke, we wouldn't have needed to show you what it feels like to be laughed at." Benjamin Collins, always so distant, said coolly, "Olivia, stop targeting Emma. If you do, we can still be friends." I shook my head. They were really overthinking it. I already had a boyfriend, so marrying any of them was the last thing on my mind. And I would never again play the villain to make Emma look better.
