The Last Favor I Owe
"Claire, you've already given up the wedding. It's only being a bridesmaid. You're not going to say no, are you?"
I nearly laughed at myself.
I had almost forgotten. Chloe had disappeared after faking her death at the height of their love. And because Ethan could never forget her, he had chosen me as her replacement.
Now his first love had returned. Yet somehow, I had still dared to hope he might feel even the smallest bit of love for me.
Swallowing the bitterness in my chest, I asked quietly, "Does this count as one favor?"
Ethan frowned irritably, as if he had forgotten something important.
