Chapter 12: I’m Alone, I Didn’t Gather Anyone

Angela watched Anthony pass her by to finally stop in front of Nora.

He bent down and offered her the roses in a gentlemanly manner. “Miss Anderson, may I have the honor of becoming friends with you?”

“…”

Angela’s eyes widened in astonishment as she stared at the scene in disbelief.

The light in the bar was a bit dim, which made her feel as if she was dreaming. Why had Anthony gone up to the damned fatty?

Nora didn’t expect such a dramatic twist, either. She had only met Anthony twice, yet he had dumped his prospective fiancée to woo her?

But when she saw how surprised and furious Angela looked—to the extent that it made her look rather savage—her anger from just now calmed a little. The corners of her lips curled upward with great interest into a mischievous smile.

Her smile, which was as bright and dazzling as a blooming sunflower, made Anthony’s eyes light up.

He was about to say something, but Angela couldn’t control herself anymore. She screamed, “Anthony!”

It was only when he heard her voice that Anthony finally noticed Angela standing beside him. He frowned and asked, “Why are you here?”

 

Angela was still fantasizing that perhaps Anthony had mistaken someone else for her because of the darkness, but his question had shattered her last vestiges of hope.

She glared at Nora angrily. “You bitch! You’re so shameless!”

After she shouted, she raised her hand to Nora.

Anthony immediately stopped her. With a sullen look, he snapped, “What are you doing, Angela? Don’t make a scene here like a shrew.”

Angela’s eyes flushed angrily. “Are you actually defending her? Do you know—”

“Enough!” Anthony interrupted her. “Take a look at yourself now, Angela. Can’t you take a leaf out of Miss Anderson’s book and pick up some of her lady-like air and charisma?”

Angela was stunned. “W-who did you say she was? Don’t you know who she is?”

Anthony was taken aback by her question. “She’s Isabel Anderson…”
