Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0389

Annie tilted her head to the side slightly as she spoke, perfectly embodying the image of a woman from a wealthy family who has been showered with endless love.

I believed she had already known about my relationship with Pete. So, when I faced her, I tried my best to be kind.

After all, any other bride would probably feel uncomfortable if they were put in a similar situation. I could completely understand if she didn't want me to appear by Pete's side. Taking the gift box, I said, "Why don't you come in and have a seat?"

I poured her a cup of tea. I knew she didn't want me to be her bridesmaid, she just wanted to do a power play and show me who was in control.

"In our country, married women aren't able to be bridesmaids.

I wanted to tell her that, no matter if she came here today or not, there would never be anything between Pete and me as I was already "married", Annie's smile tensed as she said, "I heard from Mr. Hawk's sister that you're just his booty call."

Booty call.

I almost didn't react to her words. It was the first time, after getting back with Nicholas, that someone had called out my position by Nicholas' side so bluntly

Back then, Nicholas had given me the title of his wife. Even if someone were to think that I wasn't good enough for Nicholas, they would not say a thing about it out of respect for Nicholas.

But then again, Annie wasn't wrong. Not to mention, she was Pete's fiance.

I smiled gracefully, not wanting to argue with her. "I'm sorry. But even so, I've still been married before."
