Chapter 67

Chapter 67 The Only Way Was to Comfort Nancy Nancy smiled mischievously, just like Linda did earlier. “I won’t tell you now. It’s a secret.”

The suit was neatly packed in a very exquisite gift box.

As Nancy went to pay with the receipt, Linda frowned deeply. She was having second thoughts. because, honestly, she had liked that suit the moment she saw it.

Someone as composed and meticulous as Luke, who typically only wears black suits, would definitely exude a unique charm and coolness if he wears this blue suit. It would make him look. less stern and arrogant.

But the question was, in what capacity and under what pretext should she give it to him?

Lindabit her lip and hesitated in the end.

Nancy had already paid the bill, and once they left the store, she handed the gift box with the suit 16 Linda. “I used Nicholas’

money to buy this for you.”

“For me?” Linda was naturally surprised.

“We’ve known each other for so many years. Even though you’ve been busy lately, mostly filming. and we don’t get to spend as much time together, do you think I can’t see what’s on your mind?” Nancy pointed out.

“I was going to ask you that day if you and Luke were together.”

“No,” Linda replied to this question very decisively.

“Even though I’m not sure what kind of relationship we have now, one thing I’m certain of is that we don’t have a normal relationship.”

“Nancy, my mind is in a mess right now, and even I’m not sure what we are to each other anymore.”

Nancy handed the suit to Linda and said. “If you like him, it’s worth a try.”

“Although I’ve been hurt before and scarred by relationships, I still believe that encountering someone you like during the most beautiful years of youth is rare. Some people may go their whole lives without meeting someone they like, and some may meet them but be too timid to seize the opportunity.”

“Perhaps my ending isn’t perfect, and my marriage isn’t perfect either, but being able to love someone wholeheartedly is something I feel lucky about. I have no regrets, truly, not one bit.”

“If I were to regret anything, it’s only that the person I loved is Nicholas.”

1/4 “So, Linda, if you like him, give yourself a chance. Luke is better than Nicholas. At least his heart is pure, without another woman residing inside.”

Nicholas was different, and his heart was too complicated.

Before Nancy entered his world, Nicholas had filled his heart with another woman.

So later on, he could only define Nancy as an intruder, no matter how much or how well she treated Nicholas, “Nancy...”

Linda called Nancy. Linda wanted to say that Luke was more complicated than she had imagined.

But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she regretted it.

Nancy already had enough to worry about with her affairs now. Linda felt like she couldn’t let Nancy worry about her.

“Is something wrong?” Nancy asked when Linda didn’t continue speaking.

Linda shook her head and replied with a smile, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself.”

“Alright.”

About ten minutes later, Linda received the edited photos of Nancy.

When she saw the edited photos, Linda immediately sent dozens of “thumbs up” in response.

Nancy is indeed mesmerizing!

Although Linda’s photography skills were excellent, but Nancy was pretty enough, and the photos. were already beautiful.

But after all, Linda took those casually with a mobile phone. They needed more professionalism. with the lighting and such.

After this retouching, those photos felt completely different, almost on par with international blockbusters.

“Wow, Nancy, you should debut too! Let’s form a duo. That would conquer everything. Linda excitedly suggested.

Nancy hadn’t reacted yet and felt somewhat puzzled.

Linda immediately sent Nancy the photos that had just been retouched.

Nancy looked at herself in the photos and couldn’t believe it, exclaiming, “Is this me?”

2/4 “Of course, it’s you!”

“Linda, how did you do this?”

“I let my editor work on it,” Linda replied.

“Linda, you’re amazing!”

Linda immediately selected the edited photos and sent them all to Nicholas.

“Alright, let’s wait for his response.”

When Nancy looked over, she saw Linda sending those photos to Nicholas.

“Why are you sending these photos to him? I don’t want him to see it.”

“It’s about boosting your charm and make Nicholas open his eyes to see how beautiful you are. There are plenty of people who appreciate a girl like you. He’s not the only one.”

When Nicholas received the photos, he could hardly believe his eyes.

Nancy wore an apricot chiffon dress that perfected her long and fair legs. Although the dress. wasn’t form-fitting, it accentuated her body’s curves, making her look graceful and lovely.

Under the soft lighting, her smile at the corner of her lips was gentle and radiant.

Her eyes sparkled, as if they held an entire night sky filled with countless stars.

With two fingers, Nicholas zoomed in on the photo. When Nancy’s features were displayed again, he could finally confirm that the image was indeed of Nancy.

Somehow, his hand holding the phone was trembling.

Nicholas immediately called Nancy, only to remember that his phone had been blocked by her when he heard the response from the other end.

He switched to WhatsApp and immediately sent a message: “Where are you? I’ll come to pick your up.”

Nothing.

There was no response.

She didn’t reply.

Nicholas sent another message, “Please reply!”

“Are you still angry?”

3/4 “Nancy, tell me where you are?”

Still, no response at all.

In the end, Nancy didn’t reply any of his texts.

Nicholas immediately switched target and sent a message to Linda: “Where are you guys?”

“Mr. Sallow, you feel threatened now? But why should I tell you?”

“Linda, it would be better if you just tell me. I don’t want to go look for Luke.”

Linda clenched her teeth. Nicholas, you’re ruthless!

She replied, “It’s no use looking for Luke either. He doesn’t know.”

A “If Nancy can block you, I can block Luke too. Nicholas, being tough in front of me won’t work. Your only way out is to apologize and beg for Nancy’s forgiveness. Otherwise, there’s no solution.”

After sending the message, Linda immediately logged off and decided not to respond further.

Linda thought Nicholas was too used to getting his way, and he needed to experience the feeling of being unable to get what he wanted. Only then would he understand how much pain Nancy was going through and how difficult love could be.

On the other side, Nicholas held his phone to his forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

He considered himself as a decisive and strategic person in the business world. However, he found himself at a loss when it came to these two women.

When Nicholas’ face was as cold as ice, he suddenly saw a text message on his phone.

The text message notification indicated a deduction from Nancy’s account about an hour and a half ago. Nicholas carefully examined the information provided.

Nancy made one transaction at a women’s clothing store and the other at a men’s clothing store.

A men’s clothing store?

Nancy wouldn’t buy clothes for Felix.

Was it for him?

While thinking of this, Nicholas’ mood suddenly improved. He felt that even his previous bad. mood had vanished.
