The Imposter Bride by Sallie Woods

Chapter 322

With a subconscious shake of her head, Lexi gave a reluctant nod at Natalia, her best friend, standing in front of her. “Yes, Natalia,” she smiled wryly. “I know I can’t hide from you. Do you think I’m a masochist? He hurt me, but why do I still have some affection for him?”

“Lexi, did Cal really hurt you? Apart from the time he took advantage of you when he was drunk, did he hurt you in any other way?”

Lexi thought for a moment and shook her head “No, he’s always been a gentleman, except for restricting my freedom and not letting me go out, he’s always been quite respectful of me.”

“There you go, Lexi. Everyone makes mistakes I’m not involved, so I don’t know what’s going on between you and Cal. But I can see the love in both your eyes when you look at each other Trust me, Lexi When you can’t see your own heart, don’t run away, and don’t be confused. Be brave and face it. Listen to your heart, and tell yourself what you really want. Natalia said, holding Lexi’s hand. “Whatever decision you make, don’t betray your own heart. As your best friend, I sincerely wish you happiness forever”

Lexi looked even more confused at Natalia’s words. She hesitated for a while before saying, “Natalia, are you sure what you saw in Callum’s eyes was affection for me, not the way one looks at a pet?”

Natalia couldn’t help but laugh “Lexi, do you think I, as your best friend for many years, would lie to you about this? You’re a beautiful woman. How could you be a pet? And during the five years I lost my memory. I lived in Cal’s castle and never saw him so humble in front of anyone ”
