Chapter 87 Seeing Her with Christian

Madelline wondered how Nicholas felt when he saw this scene.

She was pretty excited!

Madelline’s lips curled up with a triumphant smile.

After drinking the hot water, Nancy’s stomach felt a bit better.

But she no longer dared to stay here.

She would have left earlier if it weren’t for the stomachache.

Even though she confronted Madelline and spoke every word with determination and confidence, only she knew how scared and vulnerable she felt deep inside.

She was merely putting on a facade of strength, trying to make herself seem unbreakable.

Once she shed her outer shell, she was fragile and could easily break with a touch.

The venue was so grand, so beautiful, so dreamy!

But it was all for another woman.

Now, she only felt as if every breath was like a knife, slicing through her heart, inch by inch.

Forgive her for her timidity; forgive her for her weakness. She had no courage left.

She was afraid.

She was afraid that in a little while, she’d have to watch them walk hand in hand, looking affectionate for each other.

She feared he’d use loving looks and tender words to say those touching things to Madelline.

Even more so, she feared she couldn’t bear it.

So, she could only escape.

Escape from it all early.

Nancy got up and walked outside.

What she didn’t know was that Christian also followed her.

When Nicholas approached, he saw them walking one in front of the other. Even though they

weren’t side by side, he couldn’t help but feel they were together.

Indeed, it was him, the second young master of the Zayns.

Considering the vast family business of the Zayns, it was unexpected that the only male heir chose to become a police officer.

Suddenly, Nicholas’ gaze fell upon Christian’s clothing.

That suit looked especially familiar.

He couldn’t help but feel like he had seen it somewhere before.

Nicholas searched intensely. Soon, his eyes narrowed as he stared at Christian with determination.

He murmured that the clothing seemed familiar, and it all returned to him. It was the outfit that Nancy had purchased from that men’s clothing store.

He had been eagerly waiting these past few days, hoping she would give him that outfit as a gift.

But as it turned out, she had already given it to another man.

Oh… So that’s how it was.

Having bought such expensive clothing for another man, he wasn’t sure whether to call his wife generous or innocent.

Nicholas stared at that outfit, almost wishing to bore a hole through it with his

gaze.

His aura was so chilling that it was frightening, and his fists clenched unconsciously.

In the end, he punched and shattered the nearby goblet.

The crystal goblet fell to the ground and shattered into pieces instantly.

The red wine from the glass spilt out, some flowing onto Nicholas’ hand and the rest onto the floor.

His hand and the floor were stained with the alluring red of the wine.

At that moment, he couldn’t distinguish whether the color on his hand was from the red wine or the blood that trickled from his palm.

“Nicholas, let me bandage that for you,” Madelline said as she grabbed his hand, looking worried.

Nicholas snatched his hand back and said coldly. “No need

Outside the door, as Nancy had just walked out, she felt a wind blowing in her face.

The night air had a cool, crisp feel as it blows.

She had just wrapped her arms around herself when suddenly her shoulder felt heavier as a jacket was draped over her.

Turning around, she saw Christian.
