Chapter 87 Seeing Her with Christian

Madelline wondered how Nicholas felt when he saw this scene.

She was pretty excited!

Madelline’s lips curled up with a triumphant smile.

After drinking the hot water, Nancy’s stomach felt a bit better.

But she no longer dared to stay here.

She would have left earlier if it weren’t for the stomachache.

Even though she confronted Madelline and spoke every word with determination and confidence, only she knew how scared and vulnerable she felt deep inside.

She was merely putting on a facade of strength, trying to make herself seem unbreakable.

Once she shed her outer shell, she was fragile and could easily break with a touch.

The venue was so grand, so beautiful, so dreamy!

But it was all for another woman.

Now, she only felt as if every breath was like a knife, slicing through her heart, inch by inch.

Forgive her for her timidity; forgive her for her weakness. She had no courage left.

She was afraid.

She was afraid that in a little while, she’d have to watch them walk hand in hand, looking affectionate for each other.

She feared he’d use loving looks and tender words to say those touching things to Madelline.

Even more so, she feared she couldn’t bear it.

So, she could only escape.

Escape from it all early.

Nancy got up and walked outside.

What she didn’t know was that Christian also followed her.

When Nicholas approached, he saw them walking one in front of the other. Even though they
