Chapter 205

The call came to an abrupt stop.

"Don't flatter yourself" was what Stephen had said.

Those words were like a curse as they echoed repeatedly in Tessa's mind. Her mind fell into despair as all of the memories where he had showered her in love began to fade.

She looked at the snowy blizzard in a daze.

After a moment of silence from her phone, her phone began to ring again.

The tears staining Tessa's cheeks were still visible, and the sound of her phone ringing only filled her with exhaustion.

It was Samuel calling. "Tess, the Jacobsons came to my ward to call off the wedding."

Tessa responded in a low hum, her heart already numb from the pain.

He fell silent, acting as if he could not bear to continue. "Have you seen the rumors about Stephen and that female celebrity?"

Tessa did not answer him.
