At that moment, the woman suddenly hugged the man from behind and Kate heard a familiar voice of the woman that she would never ever forget.
“Nate, I’m just a girl too. Why are you so harsh toward me? I’ve missed you so badly recently.” Melanie? Today must be my unlucky day! No wonder the couple looks familiar! These lowlifes have practically molded themselves into my life! Needless to say, Kate instantly felt her blood run cold.
I wonder if Melanie’s just too good at this or Nathan has extremely poor self-control; it only took a single text message for him to rush over and shove her money! A guy as stingy as he is will never ever do good without expecting anything in return! What other way could Melanie repay him, huh? Anything!
As soon as Kate thought of this, she suddenly revealed a cold sneer on her lips. I’m such an idiot! She thought her clown party had ended earlier, but clearly it had not.
Perplexed by Melanie’s sudden illogical move, Nathan berated her with a disgusted expression, “Are you out of your mind?” Following that, he shoved her aside. Instantly after that, he noticed Kate, who was standing not too far from them.
This time, she did not shed any tears but directed a smile at him without a single word. At that point, Nathan could feel his head about to pop. Why is she here?
He had come over to chew Melanie out as he had assumed that she had purposely misdirected him into thinking who she was someone else on WhatsApp. With that in plan, she sent him an intimate text message to leave space for Kate’s imagination to run wild.
In the end, he checked her phone and confirmed that the number was not hers. He was just about to get into his car and drive off when she suddenly hugged him from behind, uttering all the nonsensical words, which he found strange.
He somehow sensed that someone was manipulating the situation. Otherwise, why would he have bumped into Kate so coincidentally at this spot?
“Katie?” He frantically tried to explain. However, he did not know how to start explaining himself. He wondered whether to start from the text message or the current situation in front of her.
Nonetheless, Kate was not the least bit interested in his explanation as she shot him a cold look before turning on her back and striding off. Marching ahead in the other direction, she did not even bother to turn around and take a look at him.
There was a resolute, cold look in her eyes and he could see the disappointment and pain in them as well. As soon as Nathan saw her walking away, he yelled out anxiously, “Katie…”
As he spoke, he attempted to run after her, but Melanie wrapped her arms around him from behind once again. “Nate, don’t leave. Are you really going to cast me aside?”
At that point, Nathan flared up and shoved the clingy Melanie aside, prompting her to fall to the ground. His eyes were bloodshot as he yelled at her, “Out of my sight! Now!”
After he said that, he rushed forward to go after Kate. “Katie, wait for me…”
Meanwhile, Jared had just got out of the car and was about to open the door to the passenger seat for Kate when she arrived before him. She wrapped one hand around his neck and leaned in to kiss him with her cold lips.
Though Jared was momentarily stunned by her action, soon enough, he took control and placed a hand behind Kate’s head and kissed her more intensely.
Running in their direction, Nathan instantly paused in his tracks as an incredulous look flashed across his eyes. At that moment, he wished so hard that the scene playing before him was just a dream.
He hoped that once he woke up from this dream, he would still be standing at the hospital entrance and walking toward her with a large bouquet of red roses in his arms as she smiled warmly at him. Why did things end up like this? Nathan could not contain his anger anymore as he reached out to tug Kate’s hand. “Katie-”
Slap! However, Jared lifted his hand and slapped Nathan on his face. “Don’t you dare lay hands on my girlfriend!” Clutching at his face, Nathan was at a loss for words for quite some time…
