Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 601 He Had a Crush on Her for Ten Years

"Yeah. Initially, I refused to get married because I was in love with someone else. However, now that she is happy, I think it's time for me to let go."

When Callum heard his words, he immediately knew what Federick was implying.

"Are you talking about Yelena?"

"Since you guys have guessed it, there’s no point in keeping this a secret. Yes, I have had a crush on her for ten years," Federick said calmly. However, everyone knew how painful it must have been for Federick when he saw Yelena with someone else. After all, he had loved her for a decade.

Callum stayed quiet and said nothing. After all, there was no way he'd tell Federick to snatch someone else's girlfriend away. Plus, Max didn't stand a chance when Yelena was with Hank, much less Federick.

In the end, Callum said, "Still, you can't do this to yourself. You can't marry someone you don't love just because of this."

Federick smiled and shook his head. "I have prepared myself for this ever since I accepted the outcome."

He loved Yelena for ten years. In fact, he had loved her for so long that he couldn't love anyone else. Thus, he would rather marry someone his parents were satisfied with. Moreover, it might even help his business grow. Federick felt that this was a happy ending for both sides.

Seeing that Federick had everything planned out, Callum didn't say anything else.

Soon, the room fell silent again.

On the other hand, Elspeth was deep in thought when she heard their conversation. Suddenly, she asked him, "Do you still remember the book you wrote, Federick? It's called 'To Catch the Light', right?"

Federick was familiar with this book. He nodded and said, "Yes. What's wrong with it?"
