Chapter 86 Nancy Attended the Birthday Party

“Exactly as I said. Nicholas’ tone was very icy.

Madelline gazed at him. Her eyes filled with tears, and she couldn’t utter a word for a long time.

“Yesterday, when I asked about the ring, it wasn’t that I didn’t trust Nancy, but it created a misconception for her.” Nicholas explained.

“She’s my wife, and I should have cherished, loved, and protected her, but I didn’t fulfil my duty as a husband.”

“As for you, Madelline, I’m the one who said I would marry you, broke that promise, and hurt you. None of this has anything to do with Nancy. I hope you won’t blame her for anything in the future.”

If she hadn’t heard it with her ears, Madelline would never have believed that these words came from Nicholas..

When he had agreed to throw a grand birthday party for her, she had been overjoyed to the point of feeling almost ecstatic.

She even thought he had finally changed his mind and would acknowledge their relationship publicly.

However, she hadn’t expected that this wasn’t the beginning” but the “end.”

“Nicholas…” Madelline called his name but choked up, unable to say another word.

She was suffering.

Her heart felt like it had been pierced, and she was in extreme agony.

How could this have happened?

It was supposed to be her eagerly anticipated and joy-filled birthday party.

She had been so happy and excited, thinking she was the happiest woman in the world.

But why was he telling her that all of this was false?

“So, you threw this birthday party not to celebrate with me but to say goodbye, is that it?” Madelline asked pitifully.

Nicholas nodded. “Whether you see it as a farewell or a way for me to make amends for my guilt, you can interpret it however you like.”
