The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

Chapter 31 I’m Not Crying

But voices like that were far too few; in the blink of an eye, they were drowned out by the flood of blessings pouring in for John and Elsa.

Later, the videos and screenshots Lily posted online were all taken down. It was as if everyone had simply forgotten that Elsa had shamelessly stolen the wedding dress Lily had sewn by hand.

Seeing all the online praise so one–sidedly directed at Elsa, Lily couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh. How amusing.

John had power and pull. With his backing, Elsa could be painted as the picture of innocence, even after being the other woman. When a man really loves you, he’ll bend over backwards, walk through fire, move mountains if he has to. But if he doesn’t, then it doesn’t matter how much of your heart you lay bare; he’ll make you feel like you brought it on yourself.

She wished John and Elsa would be stuck with each other forever–and stop dragging anyone else down.

What man with a changed heart would ever matter more than food? Lily didn’t want to let her mood be ruined. She stopped reading the news and focused on getting herself together, then went downstairs for dinner.

She had barely eaten all day.

After downing a big bowl of porridge and two steaming hot pepper–and–ham meat pies, she finally felt alive again.

“Lily?”

She had just stepped out of the restaurant when a bright, cheerful voice called out.

But she didn’t recognize the voice, so she figured whoever it was hadn’t meant her and didn’t bother turning around.

To her surprise, that person stepped right in front of her.

When she looked up, she was met with a sunny, boyish face that was strikingly handsome.
