No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 19



Haley's face turned pale instantly, her eyes brimming with tears that threatened to spill over but didn't, making her look utterly heart-wrenching. "Rad, you're tired of me, aren't you?" Haley's voice shook and tears streamed down her cheeks as she spoke.

Conrad remained silent, an air of gloom enveloping him.

"If Aiden were here, I wouldn't have bothered you." Haley's tone was buzzing, but her words carried an undeniable weight.

"You might be annoyed with me, but leave her out of this," Conrad's 'her' referred to me.

It looked like they were on the verge of quite an argument, and I wasn't sure whether to stay put or leave.

"I get it. From now on, I won't bother you or interfere with your lives," Haley said before turning around and striding away.

This time, Conrad didn't go after her. Instead, he turned to look at me. I slightly lowered my head and walked away.

Conrad quickly followed, and as we exited the coffee shop, a sharp screeching of brakes cut through the air. Conrad and I saw Haley hit by a car coming out of the parking lot.

"Haley," Conrad murmured, rushing toward her.

I froze for a second before hurrying over as well.
