Chapter 264 A Narrow Escape

When I saw Ronan’s excited expression, I realized that he had misunderstood what I said.

“Ronan, we can only be friends and can never be a couple. If you continue to act like this, I don’t think we can even be friends,” I told him.

While Ronan’s feelings and concern touched me, it did not mean that we should be a couple.

I had spelled things out to Ronan, so he should be clear of my decision. Although he then appeared sullen, he did not say anything. He just looked at me with disappointment.

I didn’t want the mood between us to remain awkward. Since Ronan was not going to say anything, I quickly asked him to leave. “If there is nothing else, you can go back first. I’m tired and would like to rest for a while.”

He looked at me for a long time before standing up and leaving dejectedly.

After Ronan left, I breathed a sigh of relief. However, I suddenly felt guilty toward him.

The days passed by quickly as Michael and Emma’s wedding edged closer. Soon, it was the day before their wedding, and I felt indescribable agony.

All this while, I had been shutting myself at home. Since the wedding was happening tomorrow, I felt terrible. I knew I would not stop overthinking if I remained at home alone.

Therefore, I decided to go out for a walk and get some fresh air, hoping it would make me feel better.

The scenery outside lifted my mood somewhat; however, I was still unhappy.
