Helen’s POV:
Lucy and I asked Cece, "What happened?"
We didn’t get a verbal response.
Cece only cried harder and louder.
Several minutes later, she thankfully ran out of tears.
After dabbing at her eyes so she could see clearly, she took out her mobile phone and switched it on with a furious glint in her eye.
The next second, what we heard was, "Kendal, you are a bastard! A bastard!"
She yelled furiously before placing her phone on the table face up so that we could see her phone’s screen.
On the screen, it showed that the voice message she just sent wasn’t delivered.It would appear that Kendal had blocked Cece from his social media account.
Although Kendal was outgoing, he was devoted and faithful.He had been chasing after Cece since high school.
After getting her social media account, he even reported his schedule to her every single day, and said good night to her before sleep.
Kendal had been doing this for at least five years.It didn’t matter whether Cece replied or not.He just never missed a single day.
But such a faithful man had unfriended Cece.
Gaze narrowing, Lucy asked, "Did he fall in love with someone else?"
Cece suddenly sat up straight and scowled at Lucy.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I already told you a long time ago to stop acting indifferent if you really do like him.Look at the two of you now.Because you were playing hard to get you ended up losing him to another girl.Are you happy now?"
Cece’s scowl deepened.
"He said he loves me.Why can’t he wait a little longer? How could he fall in love with another woman while he is supposed to be obsessed with me?"Cece’s statement ignited Lucy’s anger and she shot to her feet.
"Hasn’t he been patient enough with you? Helen and I have seen everything he has done for you over the years." Cece’s arrogance instantly fled at Lucy’s reprimand.
When she spoke again, her voice turned lower with each word.
"I just wanted to wait until my career develops, okay? You know his family background and their status in society.All these years, I’ve been doing everything I can to excel in my career so that I can finally be on the same level with him.I thought that when I became very successful, then I could agree to be in a relationship with him."
This was the first time that Cece was coming clean about her feelings for Kendal and the reason for her attitude.
Before today, she never once showed any inclination of reciprocating Kendal’s feelings.I sat beside her quietly as my mind pieced together a clearer picture of what had happened.It had been about a month now since Kendal last contacted Cece.It seemed that he had finally decided to give up on her and start a new relationship.
But Cece loved Kendal.
Since that was the case, it was wrong to let Kendal continue to believe that his love was unrequited.
When I saw Cece burst into tears once again, I was very sad for her.It was obvious that the two of them loved each other very deeply.It wasn’t right for them to be apart.
Making a snap decision, I took out my phone and dialed Kendal’s number.
The phone was answered as soon as it rang.
"Where are you, Kendal?"
