Chapter 5
The news of my return from overseas eventually reached Nathan’s parents,
Coincidentally, it was Nathan’s mother’s birthday party, and she called me on the phone, asking me to come home.
I remained silent for a moment and nodded in agreement,
When I arrived, the Hayes‘ Villa had already had many guests.
Three years ago, the news of my infatuation with the sole heir of the Hayes family spread throughout the entire Upper Town.
When I appeared at the entrance of the banquet, all the eyes around immediately gathered towards me.)
There was surprise, there was spectating, there was disdain..
Isla was hovering around Nathan’s mother, trying to please her, but Nathan’s mother was somewhat indifferent towards her.
But when I appeared, she turned around and grabbed Isla’s hand, smiling happily.
He looked at me again, this time with a surprised expression on his face.
“Claire came back, come here, Mom! Let me introduce you, this is your brother’s girlfriend
She bit the words “your brother’s girlfriend” heavily, and I smiled slightly.
Took out two pill boxes.
One is the heirloom bracelet of the Hayes family, and the other is a birthday gift for Nathan’s mother.
When I was handing over the things, I hesitated for a moment, but in the end, I still shouted,
“Moni, happy birthday.”
Nathan’s mother exchanged a few words with me while holding my hand.
She accepted the bracelet, while the gift was casually placed aside.
There were many guests who came today, and Nathan’s mother didn’t have much energy to focus on me.
I left the banquet hall and made my way to the backyard of the Hayes‘ Villa,
It has changed a lot here since we last met three years ago.
I was lost in thought when I noticed a gaze falling on me.
I looked up and met a pair of dark and profound eyes not far away.
It was Samuel.
Didn’t th
this man say he was going on a business trip today?
He was dressed in black clothes, surrounded by a crowd.
Nathan was also by his side, pressing him for answers about the woman he was holding yesterday.
Hedidn’t speak, but silently caressed a ring on his hand.
It was the couple ring that I gave him yesterday.
What he had in his hand was something he forced me to put on.
What I had in my hand was his…
Thinking about the scenes from yesterday.
