On the other end of the line, Zane stayed quiet. Nora pulled the phone closer to check the call was still connected, then put it back to her ear.
“Should I be grateful that I ran into you that evening and got to dance with you?” Nora asked evenly, her eyes bright with a hint of hope.
Nora thought, ‘Could Zane taking this call mean he values the friendship we shared that day? Maybe he still has a soft spot for me after all.‘
As these thoughts rushed through her mind, she felt a spark of excitement. Although she had regrets, having even a small place in his heart was better than nothing at all.
“I think you’re mistaken. You should thank Tom, as my willingness to take this call is solely because of him.” Zane’s voice sounded rough and distant. Nora’s heart dropped at his words, and her expression fell flat.
“If you meet him in the future, be sure to thank him,” Zane’s words felt like a punch to Nora’s gut. All her hopes were in vain; he wasn’t reaching out for her sake.
Remembering the girl she had seen at the Grand Restaurant, Nora couldn’t help but ask, “Do you have feelings for Elysia?”
“This isn’t your business. If you want to talk about this, I see no point.”
Just as Zane was about to end the call, Nora hurriedly interjected, “Please don’t hang up.”
“You have one minute; say what you need.”
Nora realized time was short and quickly said, “My dad wants to meet with you.”
“Do you think just meeting will change my mind?”
Hearing this made her heart ache. Nora was finally sure Zane was behind this. From doubting to hearing him say it outright -it hurt. “Why?” Her voice was shaky, struggling to understand his reasoning.
