A Cue For Love

Chapter 1069 Did Not Dodge On Purpose

The dance was just a dance and didn’t mean anything. He’s still single and capable of becoming your fiancé.”

As if she had heard the worst joke in her life, Helma snorted. “Natalie, are you taking pity on me?”

“That’s not my intention.” “No?” With the tears in Helma’s eyes all dried up, hatred was all that was left. Step by step, she approached Natalie. “Are you gloating then? By dancing with Bastien in front of everyone, you have utterly humiliated me.
