Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 525 Not So Simple

What? Whoa, it seems like Hank is really mad. Elspeth took a deep breath. She stopped talking about Yelena’s relationship so she wouldn’t feel sad. She said, “I know it’s hard to accept it, but I think Hank really loves you, and that love cannot be erased that easily.”

Yelena shook her head. “He went on a blind date. Soon it’ll be the engagement, and then a wedding.”

That was a surprise for Elspeth. She thought something was wrong. Hank’s love for her wasn’t an act. If it was an act, then he’d be a terrifying man. If his love for her is true, then what caused this breakup?

Noticing Elspeth’s worried look, Yelena couldn’t hold it in anymore. She cried and threw herself into Elspeth’s embrace. “He’s dumping me. He took a woman back to his firm, and he was really nice to her. Like how he was nice to me.”

A frown furrowed Elspeth’s brow, but she could do nothing. She just patted Yelena’s back. “Don’t cry. We’ll deal with this. Calm down…”

Yelena’s incessant cries caught the attention of all the reporters. Some of the sharper ones recognized Yelena. They knew she was engaged to Max, but the engagement was eventually canceled. Now she’s here at the funeral, and she’s crying. She must still love Max. Poor lady.

The reporter quickly took a few shots of the crying Yelena. Elspeth shot him a glance, and the reporter almost tossed his camera away in fear. He quickly ran away with his photos before Elspeth chased after him.

“I’m fine, Elspeth.” Yelena finally stopped crying. She took a seat and muttered, “I think he doesn’t like me anymore. I’m not going to try and convince him anymore.” Besides, he’s close to that girl. If I continue to hound him, that’d make me a homewrecker. Being a simp is the lowest I can tolerate. I will not be a homewrecker. That’s disgusting.
