No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 359



"You want him?!"

The audacity she had to claim that.

I looked at her pitiful face, my voice dropping a few degrees colder. "Haley, you misspoke. You're not after Conrad for him. You're after the status, the fortune that comes with his name."

Haley replied, "I won't deny that, but..." She paused, then delivered a blow straight to the heart, "But over these past days, he's been just as kind to me as Aiden ever was. I've truly fallen for him. I do want a life with him."

She was making it clear - Conrad was the one for her, and in her eyes, I was still the rival for his affection.

But still, here she was, asking for my help and rubbing salt in my wound at the same time. Did she actually think I was such a pushover?

A smirk crossed my lips as I said, "Conrad might have been good to you, but he ran away, didn't he?"

Haley's face stiffened at my counter. I pressed on with a mocking tone, "Are you sure he wants a life with you too?"

"As long as he comes back, I have a way," Haley murmured, almost in despair.
