No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 133



I was utterly bewildered, wondering who was playing these cruel tricks on me as a series of calls regarding wedding ring orders and venue bookings came in.

That was when it dawned on me that it wasn't just some sick joke. I demanded to know who was behind all this and finally realized how obsessed Conrad had become. He was the mastermind behind it all.

I knew Conrad wouldn't engage in childish pranks or mock me for fun. Considering an even more disturbing possibility, I confronted him, "Conrad, what on earth are you trying to pull? We broke up, and now, you are booking wedding dresses and rings. You made me sick!"

"Don't make me out to be some petty, immature ex. You think I don't care about you? You question my love? Let's get married then. That should show you I only want you." Conrad's words only deepened my disappointment in him.

"Conrad, do you think love is about putting a woman in a dress and slipping a ring on her finger? Do you still not get why I broke it off with you?" I asked, frustrated.

There was a pause from his side, and then, he said, "Is it because of Haley?"

"Yes!" I admitted. "And what are your plans for dealing with this 'obstacle'?"
