She Regretted Losing Him Chapter 17
Annie was gentle. She showed concern for me, but she never crossed any boundaries.By the end of the meal, a pleasant warmth had settled in my stomach.I had not felt that way in a very long time.During the five years I spent with Eloise, I had always spent Christmas Eve alone.The Russell family had strict rules. Every Christmas Eve, Eloise had to return home and stay there until midnight.I could not even remember the last time I spent Christmas Eve with so many people."Luke, when do you and Natalie plan to get married?" Annie suddenly asked with a smile.The question caught me completely off guard.I instinctively turned to look at Natalie.However, Natalie seemed completely unfazed. She did not deny our relationship. Instead, she rubbed her temples and frowned."Mom, you're getting ahead of yourself. I'm a woman, after all. Could you stop being so proactive on my behalf?"My heart skipped a beat.A strange feeling spread through my chest.Annie seemed to have already

Eloise stood outside for a long time.The hallway lights flickered on and off around her, yet she remained rooted in place, lost in thought.My eyes began to sting.I reached up and touched the corner of my lips.A faint smile tugged at them.This was the path I had fought so hard to carve out for myself after crawling out of the mud.There was no turning back.I had no idea when Eloise finally left that night.The next time I heard about her was half a month later.A video swept across the internet overnight and spread like wildfire.In the video, Aiden and his parents were forced to apologize on camera.Jacqueline said, "That man was only with me because he was a widower. I was the one who developed inappropriate feelings first. He never tried to seduce me..."Hugo spoke next."I knew he'd been deceived, but I was angry because he came between my wife and me. So I had people humiliate him in public. He begged me for mercy when he was on the verge of death. Not only did I

Eloise suddenly stepped closer and reached out to touch my face.I took a step back and avoided her hand."Eloise, I never liked these things. Haven't you noticed that I never touched the things you gave me? Real estate and cars don't interest me. As for the cash, you already paid me more than enough back then. That money was compensation for the five years I spent with you. I don't feel guilty about taking it."But there's no need for you to do all this now. We never said it out loud, but we both knew what was going on. You wanted to get under Aiden's skin, and so did I. There wasn't much genuine affection between us, so why pretend we were in love?"Eloise seemed unable to understand why I had suddenly become so difficult."Luke, I've gone this far for you. Can't you stop being difficult?"I smiled as her expression grew darker and darker."You've always done this. You think money can buy every part of me. That's why you let me take the blame and apologize to Aiden. You even h

Whenever Eloise looked unhappy, my first instinct had always been to wonder whether I had said or done something wrong.Now, all I felt when I looked at her was disgust.Natalie tugged on my arm, rose onto her tiptoes, and whispered in my ear, "If you don't want to look at someone, then don't."She led me out of the mall and practically shoved me into her car.Eloise did not follow us, but I could still feel her sharp gaze fixed on my back.Natalie gently pried open my clenched hand.Tiny red marks covered my palm, and a few had already started bleeding.She looked at me helplessly."If something's bothering you, let it out. Don't keep it bottled up. Most importantly, don't hurt yourself."A sharp sting shot through my palm as she applied ointment.Instinctively, I tried to pull my hand away, but she held it firmly in place."Don't move. Be good."There was something almost magical about her voice.To my own surprise, I actually stayed still. My gaze drifted to her profile

When we met up, Zac noticed how distracted I looked and grinned even wider."What are you so upset about? If anyone should be annoyed, it's Natalie. Nobody even knows who you are. They're all trying to figure out who you are and how you managed to get a workaholic like Natalie to put aside her job and have a meal with you."It seemed Sarah had recognized me but had not revealed my identity to anyone else.Even so, Zac's words did not make me feel any better.I had gone to see Natalie to thank her, yet I somehow seemed to have caused her trouble instead."Luke, stop worrying. Natalie can handle herself. If the rumors ever get out of hand, she'll shut them down herself. Whenever gossip about her starts spreading, she's always the first one to clear things up. If she hasn't said anything this time, it just means she doesn't care."Concerned that I would keep overthinking things, Zac dragged me into a luxury boutique."Didn't you say you wanted to buy Natalie a gift? Let me give you

Natalie was always punctual. Her car pulled up outside my apartment building 10 minutes early.I handed her the bouquet I had prepared in advance."I wasn't sure what kind of flowers you liked, so I asked the florist to put something together. I hope you like them."Natalie lowered her head and inhaled their fragrance. A smile spread across her face, crinkling the corners of her eyes."I love them. Thank you."For a moment, I found myself distracted by her smile.Natalie had chosen a seaside restaurant for lunch, but we unexpectedly ran into someone she knew." Natalie, where'd you find this handsome guy? I've never seen him before," Sarah Dane said.Natalie replied calmly, "Watch your mouth. Are you going to find me a replacement if you scare him off?"Sarah chuckled, becoming even more curious about me. She leaned in for a closer look and murmured, "He is handsome, but why does he look so familiar? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."I immediately tensed up.Back
