Chapter 1280 Felicia Reynolds
“Don’t worry, Nina. He gave you his most treasured pendant. He won’t have a change of heart,” stated Maya confidently.
“Nina, since he asked you out, that means he is still thinking about you. You have to trust him and yourself.”
Nina nodded. With Nicole and Maya’s encouragement, she got into her car and drove to the café.
Her heart was racing when she was about to enter the private room. I wonder if Chris has changed after all these years? He should have. He must have become more mature than before.
Chris’ chiseled and handsome face appeared in her mind. She took a deep breath and knocked on the private room door.
The door opened, but it was not the face she was looking forward to seeing. Instead, the person was a gentle-looking woman.
Nina was shocked to see that. Why is there a woman in the room? Did I go to the wrong private room?
She was about to take a look at the room number again when she heard the woman calling out to her sweetly. “Hello, are you Nina?”
She knows my name? Do I know her?
“I am. And you are?”
“I’m Felicia Reynolds. I’m Chris’ fiancée.”
Fiancée?
Nina was startled by the woman’s words. Her face sank as she looked at the lady before her in disbelief. She looks beautiful and dainty, giving off a girl-next-door vibe. I have to admit that she seems very friendly.
Felicia smiled. “Chris said you might be surprised when you see me. It’s all right. I’ll explain everything to you. Please come in.”
Nina entered the private room and swept her eyes across the area. After seeing no signs of Chris, she asked, “Are you the one who wanted to meet me?”
“No, it was Chris. However, he didn’t know what to say, so he asked me to come instead. He said you are kind, and he didn’t want to hurt you. Hence, he asked me to give you the news.”
Chris asked her to come? He asked me out but sent a woman in his place?
Clutching her fingers tightly, she started to feel uncomfortable. She tried her best to maintain her composure. “What does he want you to tell me?”
“He wanted me to tell you that he had chosen to be together with me. So, everything that used to happen between you two has become history. He hopes you will be able to find the right person for you.”
Felicia’s voice was soft, almost like she was afraid of startling Nina. However, the latter felt the words pierce through her heart like sharp blades.
Clenching her fists, she took another glance at Felicia. She looks beautiful and much more mature than me. I still don’t understand how Chris would fall in love with Felicia. Right at that moment, there was only one thought in her mind. From now onward, I’m no longer the woman staying by Chris anymore!
Years of dreams and longing were shattered in that instant as everything came crashing down around Nina.
Chris had been the name I called out to several times every day for these past few years. How can I accept that he is suddenly gone from my life?
On the way home, Felicia’s words kept echoing through her mind.
“Ms. Nina, this is the wedding photo of Chris and me. I’ll give one to you. Chris and I will be getting married next month. I’d like to invite you to our wedding. Chris is also doing very well. He is currently the heir to the K Enterprise. Chris… “
Nina suddenly felt suffocated by the air in her car. She stepped on the brakes, rolled down the car window, and breathed heavily.
She never expected to hear another woman mentioning the name of his beloved man over and over in front of her. Furthermore, the woman even told her about their wedding date and the sweet memories they had together. The pain that filled her heart was insufferable.
