Chapter 2696
charity’s eyes moved slightly. “Since you can’t get over me, why weren’t
you worried when I committed suicide? You even came to tell me that I was
too desperate and that I was no different from other women. You told me to
stay far away from you if I wanted to kill myself and not to bother you
because you wouldn’t go soft-hearted.”
Monte was so ashamed that he wished he could slap his old self. “Lizzie, I
thought you were pretending to kill yourself at that time. I’m sorry. I made
those nasty remarks so that you would give up on me because getting my
family to approve of US being together was too difficult.
Furthermore... you’re so wonderful that I didn’t think I deserved you.”
“Why do you think you deserve me now?” Charity asked in surprise.
Monte promptly held her hand and said fondly, “Lizzie, I can’t get over you,
and that is the truth. Do you remember how happy we were when we were
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttogether?”
“Young Master Patterson, I heard you have a fiancee. I don’t think it’s
appropriate for you to hold my best friend’s hand like this.” Freya appeared
beside them with a half smile and threatening gaze. “Or do you think my
best friend is suitable to be your lover?”
It was undeniable that Freya’s presence was getting stronger after spending
so much time with Ryan.
Monte was not afraid of Freya, but he did not dare to disrespect Ryan.
“Of course not.” Monte did not let go of Charity’s hand. Instead, he tightened his grip. “I’ve never wanted Lizzie to
be my lover. When we were in a relationship, she was officially my girlfriend.”
“But you already have a fiancee.” Freya said coldly, “In that case, stop pestering Eliza.”
“Lilian and I got engaged only because our elders forced US, and getting engaged is just a means to delay things.
Right now, I’m striving hard to inherit the Patterson family’s fortune. Then, I’ll be able to decide on my marriage.”
With a handsome face and firm tone, Monte said, “I love Eliza. I was too cowardly back then, but now, I want to
work hard for her sake.”
“Sure. Since you love Eliza so much, hurry up and break up with Lilian.” Catherine walked up to him. “stop pestering
my friend until you end your relationship with Lilian. Otherwise, that would mean you’re going against me.”
“That includes me.” Freya lifted her chin.
Monte was not annoyed. On the contrary, he felt a rush of excitement.
Given that Freya and Catherine were standing up for Eliza, it showed that they had a great relationship.
Once he gets back together with Eliza, he might be able to get to know the forces behind Catherine and Freya.
“I was too rash. I’ll handle my affair with Lilian.”
Monte turned his eyes to Charity affectionately. “Lizzie, if I cancel my marriage with Lilian, will you get back
together with me?”
“If you’re serious, I’ll think about it.” Charity’s eyes were filled with helplessness, annoyance, intolerance, hesitance,
and all kinds of emotions. The feelings of love and hatred were clearly visible. “Having said that... I’m worried that
your family won’t accept me.
Regarding Chester and my affair- ”
“You were forced. You were a victim.”
Monte interrupted her. “What’s more, you showed me the purest side of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou, and I still remember it. I’m not the kind who’ll care about those things
because you hold a special place in my heart.”
The man’s handsome face was gentle. At that moment, Catherine and Freya
exchanged glances.
Sometimes, God was really unfair. He gave Monte a handsome face and a
good voice that could easily move a woman. With his emotional
intelligence, he could easily succeed in relationships.
Many women would not be able to resist a man like Monte.
“Monte, I think Eliza is quite good.” Hugo walked up to him and said,
“Everyone knows how bold and wise Miss Robbins is. She’s much better
than your fiancee.”
“I think that Lizzie is wonderful too.”
Monte’s lips curled into a grin, and his eyes were filled with affection.
They had fun until about 11:00 p.m.
Ryan gave Freya a call.
