Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 415 Getting Married This Soon?

"Getting married this soon?" Elspeth muttered involuntarily.

Getting married had always been something beyond her plans. They were engaged and made a promise to get married after looking for Helena. However, they ended their relationship upon finding her.

The wedding invitations inflated the sorrow in Elspeth. "No, I won't."

It felt like they had turned back in time. The subsequent awkward atmosphere smothered his urge to say anything as he still held the umbrella for her.
