Chapter 133 Too Late, It’s Meaningless Now

Nancy had intended to talk about marriage.

Unfortunately, her marriage had come to an end.

Suppressing the painful ache in her heart, she responded with a carefree smile, “Nothing.”

She knew she wouldn’t have the marriage and love she desired.

That was why she felt so drawn to and envious of Jacob and his wife’s love story.

It was natural for a person to envy others for having what they themselves could not have. Nancy was no exception.

Suddenly, Nicholas spoke up, “You’ll find it.”

“Find what?”

“You said you want a love of your own and someone who loves you with all their heart, right? Just like Grandma, you’ll find someone who loves you, cherishes you, and would give their life to protect you.”

“Is that so?” Nancy chuckled.

“Perhaps you already have,” Nicholas said.

In that moment, he wanted to grab her hand and tell her, “I know I made a mistake, Nancy. I was a fool. I didn’t realize what my heart wanted back then, but I do now. I’ll love you the way Grandpa loved Grandma. Can you give me another chance?”

Unfortunately, after hearing Nancy’s words, his hand froze in mid-air.

“That’s right. I found it-a long time ago. But unfortunately, I didn’t hold onto it. Maybe that’s just my fate!” Nancy shook her head helplessly.

Nicholas felt as if his heart had sunk into the depths of an icy lake.

His outstretched hand trembled as it clenched into a fist. Slowly, he retracted it.

It was as if he had never reached out in the first place.

Nicholas briefly closed his eyes. His heart was in agony. When he opened his eyes again, the pain only
