My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day

Chapter 37 

"Nika, I am aware that I can't let go of my pride.That's why I don't want you to know what I was thinking’

"l regret it.I will never do it again.Whatever you need, I will do everything I can to help you.Give me another chance and let's start over, okay?"

His eyes turned red and his hands tightly gripped Anika's arm.

He looked at her with expectantly and patiently waited for her answer.

Anika met his expression and shook her head with a cold smile, "Regret? Kayden, your regret comes from me leaving you.You hope that I will continue to stay by your side quietly, not because you feel that you have made a big mistake.’

"Don't you know anything about how I didn't like the Coopers at all? No, you just feel that everything can be perfectly fine."

"You think I have the T&D shares you gave me, and I want to marry you, so there's no need to get involved with the Steven Family.That way, you can fulfill your feelings and promises at the same time"

"It's not that I haven't given you a chance, but you've already used up all your chances.You think you love me, but far less than you love yourself.To put it bluntly, your actions only show how selfish and despicable you are deep inside your heart’’

"Perhaps you think your help is charity? But my life and my heart are mine, not yours.You have no right to interfere in any of my decisions, and you have no right to give up anything for me."

"It's impossible for me to start over with you.It's impossible for the two of us.Kayden, put away your so- called affection and embarrassment.I don't need it, nor do I want to see it.She should have known that

even without the Cooper family, she and Kayden would not be able to reach marriage.She had repeatedly hinted that she didn't have to risk her life to be Kayden's wife.

The problem between her and Kayden was never Lucy, but his indecisiveness and selfishness to only fulfill his position.

It wasn't wrong for Kayden to say that she was too distant in their relationship.

She could give up her engagement to go abroad because she knew that he was dating Lucy.

In her relationship with him, she didn't pay because she loved him until she lost her head, but because she was originally willing to work hard on anything to achieve her desired results.

Essentially, she also had her selfishness.

She didn't want to give herself up in front of anyone, so she kept her calm all the time.

She had worked hard to give Kayden a chance.

There was no regret about the decision to end their relationship.

As for Kayden’s remorse, she had no obligation to fulfill it.

"Kayden, put away your so-called affection and embarrassment.I don't need it, nor do I want to see it."

This sentence was like a huge boulder that smashed the last hope in Kayden’s heart.

She really wanted to abandon him.

The bitter and turbulent emotions were shouting crazily.

He wanted to refute Anika's words and tell her that it wasn't like this.

He truly loved her.

However, all the rebuttals in his heart instantly shrank when he met her cold gaze.

Kayden's eyes were scarlet red.

He gritted his teeth.

He tried to find a trace of emotional fluctuation on her face, but she was in vain.

A boundless depression rose in his heart as if he had fallen into a pitch-black deep sea.

The suffocating seawater wrapped around him, causing him to lose his perception of everything around him.

Kayden was knocked to the ground by someone before he could react, and blood oozed out from the thin corner of his mouth.

Zac slowly pulled down his sleeve and reached out to pull Anika.

His expression was icy cold.

He looked down at the half-fallen man with a mocking expression, "Kayden, if you want to be a paramour, you have to think about it carefully.If I find out again, I don't mind giving Director Adam some good advice."

"Paramour?"

Kayden slowly stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He frowned and looked back, "Zac, you are the one who stole my woman”

The atmosphere fell into a silent stalemate.

Anika's fingertips curled up slightly.

Seeing Zac coming over, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.

When she realized that Kayden was still relentlessly trying to provoke Zac, she hurriedly grabbed the man's arm and whispered, "Let's go.Ignore him”

The banquet outside was still going on, and if the situation got too big, it wouldn't end well.

As for Zac's words just now, Anika did not want to bring him unnecessary trouble because of herself, nor did she want Kayden's shit to bring him more criticism.

When she finished speaking, she saw that the man only gave her a faint glance, and his footsteps did not move at all.

Anika sighed and said, "Zac, I know you fought badly, but if you get hurt, I have to take you to the hospital.There's no need to do this.’

‘lf Zac attacked him because he just saw me and Kayden talking here, then the latter would be in trouble if he continued to provoke him”

Zac's emotions seemed to be affected by her words.

He raised his eyebrows and looked over with his deep, brown eyes.

Finally, he smiled and nodded.

He reached out to grab her.

The two then turned around and left.

Only Kayden stood in the silent corridor alone.

At the entrance of the bathroom at the end of the corridor, a person cautiously poked his head out.

It was Blake who had been hiding in the men's room for a long time.

He had just finished going to the bathroom, but now, he wanted to go back and squat in the pit because of the bloody commotion.

He took out his phone and shared everything he had just heard with others.

However, considering that Zac was too difficult if provoked, Blake still coughed lightly and slowly walked out.

As he passed by Kayden, he sighed and patted Kayden's shoulder earnestly.

"Kayden, listen to my advice.This is not a big deal.But if you run away to be a paramour, there will be a problem with your character, not to mention that Anika does not love you anymore.”

"Zac is her husband now.You haven't even been her ex-husband.What's the point of pestering him?"

Kayden did not respond.

Zac and Anika came out of the Dain family banquet and sat on Bentley that was waiting at the door.

Because of what happened earlier, they have no reason to stay anymore.

Anika sent a message to Nataly and left with Zac.

The spacious car was filled with tranquility.

Zac adjusted his seat and lay in the backseat with his eyes closed.

His expression was calm, and his hands rested on his chest.

He hadn't spoken since he got in the car.

Outside the car window, the neon shadow of the night lights flashed past his handsome outline.

Anika turned her head to look at him and she could smell the faint sweet smell of alcohol on the man's body.

She remembered that Zac had been able to handle the gathering and chatting with a group of people just now.

He was completely different from the person she remembered.

Nataly also said that the Zac in her eyes could not coincide with the wild Zac described by Anika.

Anika couldn't figure out the man's current mood.

After pondering for a moment, she spoke, "You said that my eyesight is not good, and you're not wrong.’

The man rolled his eyes and looked at her loosely as if he was barely interested in what she said.

As the car drove through the business district, Anika stared at the lively night scene outside the window, recalling her first Christmas in the United States.

In high school, Kayden had helped her a lot.

She had a crush on Kayden.

But when she learned that Kayden was with Lucy, she forced herself to forget about him.

After some time, Kayden arrived in the United States.

During the year, he pursued her.

The surrounding people said that her life was too boring and advised her to get a love life.

However, Anika did not consider accepting Kayden.

Not until she received the dean's lucky charm.

The dean's mother was an old woman, and she still had some superstitions about some things.

She felt that charm accessories could avoid disaster, so even if she didn't have much savings, she gave each of the orphanage children a lucky charm bracelet.

The girls received charm bracelets while the boys received pendants.

It was not the best gift that the children could receive, but it shows how much the dean cared for the orphans.

On Christmas Eve, she received a call from her grandfather.

He told her that the dean had passed away.

Since she returned to the Meyer family, although the director did not reject her insistence on giving the orphanage financial aid, he seriously advised her not to go back.

After leaving the orphanage, she had to live a new life.

‘Older people will one day leave, and they will always face their parting: Anika comforted herself this much, but it was because of the dean's departure that she mourned, but she did not show it.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

On Christmas Day, the mentor let her eat at home.

On the way back to the dormitory, every household was celebrating the festival with lights on.

However, she felt that the scene in front of her was gradually separating her from the one in the past.

In a trance, there was not the slightest sense of belonging.

Not long after, she received the lucky charm bracelet sent by the dean's mother, and the package was sent a month before the dean's death.

People from the orphanage told her that a boy called the dean and asked him about the bracelet.

Afterward, he had the dean sent to the hospital.

The dean walked peacefully without any regrets.

Anika had only mentioned the matter of the bracelet to Kayden, and he had given her a very similar bracelet.

When Kayden went to look for her again, it was New Year's Day.

Anika thanked him for the bracelet and accepted Kayden's confession at that moment.

As the car passed the congested intersection, several loud whistles sounded.

Anika sighed and recovered from her thoughts.

"Zac, you know I lived in an orphanage when I was a child, right?"

She smiled as her delicate hands gently supported her cheeks.

"Yes."

The man glanced over.

"Our dean is very nice.Before she passed away, Kayden asked the dean to send me a gift.At that time, I felt that this gift was very precious."

Therefore, she was finally touched and accepted by Kayden.

Anika felt that urge to respond to someone who was willing to put in all her effort to treat her well.However, from the looks of it now, it was indeed ...

"Perhaps, I have a bad taste"

"What gift is it?"

Zac's voice could not hear his emotions.

Anika's eyes narrowed, "A lucky charm bracelet.’

The man fell into silence as if he was a little tired.His soft and pale palm slowly covered his eyes.

He paused for a while.

"If it weren't for that bracelet, you wouldn't be with Kayden?"

Anika was stunned for a moment.

She pondered for a few seconds and shook her head with a chuckle, "I don't know.’

"But ...it was indeed this matter that made me make up my mind."

Without the bracelet, things might have gone the other way around.

At that time, Kayden had spent all his effort chasing after her.

In the words of her Chinese roommate, that romance had satisfied many women's fantasies.

Moreover, there weren't so many ‘ifs' in the world.Seeing that the man started to remain silent again, Anika frowned slightly and said with concern, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

‘He should have had a lot of wine just now: ‘A little"

Zac put down the palm covering his forehead, his eyelids slightly drooping.

"However, it's fine now.” After a while, Anika heard him laughing.

"Nika, I was wrong."

Zac looked sideways at her, his slightly curved peach blossom eyes seemingly drunk, with a smile on his face, "Your eyesight is pretty good, so there's no need to"

"You're underestimating yourself”
