My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 235

Chapter 235

Emma and I walked from the hotel to a nearby night market since she mentioned that she was hungry and craved some barbecue. When I sat down, I saw that she was ordering a lot of food. "Can we even finish these?" I asked in confusion.
Emma and I walked from the hotel to a nearby night market since she mentioned that she was hungry and craved some barbecue. When I sat down, I saw that she was ordering a lot of food. "Can we even finish these?" I asked in confusion.

"Call May and ask her to come over. She is quite the drinker. Let's get wasted tonight," she replied, facing her back against me.

"I distinctly remember that someone is a lightweight," I teased.

She grumbled, saying, "How dare you underestimate me."

I smiled and said nothing. Then, I took out my phone and sent a message to May, and she quickly replied. 'Sorry, Rudy is here,' she wrote.

I looked at my screen in disbelief. I never pegged Rudy as the clingy type. After all, he had gone after May just as she arrived at Goldshore.

Suddenly, I missed Shawn. It had been a while since we last saw each other, and it was difficult not being able to see him for so long.

The instant I thought about him, I sent him a goodnight text. Then, when he didn't reply, I sent him another text. 'Are you asleep, Sunny?'

After a moment, he replied. 'Hmm?'

When I saw his message, I realized that his text was him asking 'What's wrong' in his style. He couldn't even be bothered to text me a simple greeting.

So, I ignored him with a slight huff. At the same time, Emma was done ordering the food and sat beside me. I swept my gaze across the beer before her and warned, "Don't get drunk. Otherwise, I won't be able to carry you back to the hotel. All I can do is call Christopher and ask him to bring you back. When that time comes, I can't assure you what will happen next."

Despite my warning, she didn't back down and stared right back at me. "Christopher is a gentleman. If something were to happen between us, it would have happened long ago! He's old-fashioned. I have it on good money that he won't do anything unless that person is his wife. What do you take him for?"

I noticed a hidden meaning in her words and became intrigued as I probed, "Does that mean you wish that something would happen?"

Emma rolled her eyes at me and snarked, "Did I say anything like that?"

"It seems like you are sending me such a signal," I said sincerely.

"You are such a dirty old pervert, Renee."


Her words stumped me, and I began to wonder if I had gotten old.

I couldn't help but feel as though I was stabbed by the word 'old'. However, Emma quickly comforted me when she saw shock and hurt and said, "I'm just kidding. You are still as young as ever."

"You sure are a sweet talker."

As we were chatting, the screen of her phone that was on the table suddenly lit up. At that moment, I saw a person nicknamed "Harasser" send her a message. 'See you later, Emma.' It wrote.

Harasser…

"Is that Christopher?" I asked.

"He has been harassing me all the time. Did he think that I'm some child and will believe that every time we meet is out of coincidence?"

"Why are you still playing along, then?"

It seemed like I had hit the bullseye as her eyes flashed with a hint of something.

Ultimately, she didn't get drunk, but she was staggering when we left the establishment. After I helped her back to her room, I went next door to find Olivia. After I knocked on the door, she opened the door and said, "I have already explained things to Will, Renee. So, there wouldn't be any misunderstanding between us since he knows the truth."

"And what is it?" I asked hesitantly.

Olivia bit the bottom of her lip and explained softly, "He slept with me, but he was drunk that night. I didn't have the chance to explain it to him yet, and I was going to tell him tomorrow."

When I heard her words, I realized that she was planning to give William a surprise, but I ruined things with my blabbermouth.

"I'm sorry, Olivia," I said guiltily.

"I know that you mean well, and you want me to be happy." She suddenly embraced me and continued, "I never imagined that I would be the first to get married among us. After all, I was so obsessed with Chris, but now… Renee, I found William. I'm willing to spend the rest of my life with him."

…

I woke up bright and early the following day. At the same time, Olivia's mother arrived from town. She was startled when she laid her eyes on me. "Renee."

"Mrs. Parker." I greeted her.

"Thank you," She said warmly as she nodded her head.

I gave her a small smile in response. Soon, Olivia appeared before us when she was done changing into her wedding dress.

There were several people in the room. Suddenly, someone recognized me and pointed at me rudely as she barked, "Aren't you Renee, the one who went viral on the Internet? How can you be Olivia's bridesmaid when you have gotten a divorce?"

The woman was right. How could I be someone's bridesmaid when I was divorced? I had thought about it before, and Olivia knew about it too. Yet, she still chose to invite me, and I was happy to oblige. I never expected someone to bring this to light so rudely!

Since it was Olivia's wedding day, I kept quiet and didn't want to argue with the woman. Nevertheless, Olivia was upset on my behalf. Hence, she put down the lipstick with a soft thud and said coldly, "Renee had indeed gotten a divorce, but she is now single. Why can't she be my bridesmaid?"

"It's unlucky," the woman stubbornly commented.

"She's my bridesmaid, and it's my wedding. Besides, it's the 21st century. So, who gives a whit about some dumb superstition?" Olivia retorted firmly.

"Don't you dare think you can look down on us just because you're wealthy! I'm going to tell Aunt. Just you wait!"

When I heard the woman's complaints, I quickly realized she was a relative of William's family.

After the woman had stormed off, I comforted Olivia and said, "She's right. I'm divorced and not a suitable candidate to be your bridesmaid." I was afraid the Olsons would give her a hard time, especially after the wedding.
