My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day

Chapter 112 

Days passed and New Year's Day came in a blink of an eye.

It was a rare holiday, and the energy in the neighborhood was noticeable.

Anika invited Kayleigh and Alena to go shopping with her, but Nataly was unable to attend due to a scheduling conflict.

The three of them found a dessert shop in the mall to rest after a long afternoon of shopping.

After the dessert was served, Kayleigh dug up the ice cream in the bowl and told the two about the last banquet.

"The guests’ gossip couldn't be controlled.Although Lucy was not with Gavyn, grandfather has already let her go.The wedding will be called off.’’

In the wealthy circle, what happened at the Jenkins Family birthday banquet was no longer a secret.

Kayleigh knew Lucy, so she did not believe Lucy had anything to do with Gavyn, but she could not ignore the rumors.

The three women had their own thoughts, too.

As for being framed by Lucy, Kayleigh wondered deeply.

Lucy finally caused Kayden to lose his mind after so much had happened.

Now, Lucy had nothing left.

Others might not understand Lucy's mentality, but Kayleigh had known her since she was a child and knew exactly why Lucy did it.

Before Anika returned to the Meyer family, Lucy was the only daughter of the Meyer family.

With the relationship between the Jenkins and Meyer families, if nothing unexpected happened, the families expected their children to marry.

Lucy, on the other hand, did not anticipate Anika's return to the Meyer family.

The outsiders’ envious gazes gradually shifted to Anika and she lost all that she had at that time.

Kayleigh knew very well that Lucy, who had craved since childhood for Kayden's affection, could not let go of her desires and desperately wanted to get it, but she had lost everything now.

Originally, Kayleigh thought that the matter had come to an end, but even after the engagement was dissolved, his brother was not happy.

He came out early and went home late every day, and he would occasionally inquire about Anika's current situation, which made Kayleigh feel very uncomfortable.

Hearing Kayleigh's words, Alena held her chin and said, "Owen has been captured.If Lucy can recognize the truth, she should have a clear relationship with the Cooper family"

Oliver's illegitimate son had already returned home with his mother, Dorothy.

The Coopers were a family of vampires.

Lucy's company had already gone bankrupt, but Dorothy would not stop rashly asking for financial assistance.

"Forget it.Let's not talk about her anymore.Let's have a chat.Alena, isn't your birthday coming? Tell me, what do you want?"

Kayleigh smiled and looked at Alena.

"Right now, I want a man” Alena sighed, remembering Leo, who was still enraged by her scumbag behavior.

‘‘Forgive me for I cannot help you with that” Kayleigh turned to ask Anika for help, only to discover she was quietly staring at the dessert in front of her in a daze, "Anika, what's wrong with you?"

Anika suddenly regained her senses and curled her lips, "Nothing much.It's just that I suddenly remembered that Alena and Zac's birthdays are only one day away."

Not only that, Anika remembered back in their sophomore year, Zac had lost his cool over a birthday present.

They had just finished their New Year's vacation at that time.

Everyone had not recovered from the holiday ambiance when they returned to school.

They were relaxed when they studied by themselves in the evening.

Anika had already prepared a birthday present for Alena because it was her birthday this weekend.

It was Alena's favorite singer's autographed CD.

Kayleigh requested an autograph from the singer, who was a Jenkins Entertainment artist.

Anika went out of her way to find the most beautiful gift boxes and wrapping paper.

She had been wrapping the gifts after the first night of self-study.

Tony entered the classroom at this point to speak with Zac, who was leaning against the window.

"Are you playing basketball this weekend, Zac?"

Zac leaned in close and removed his earphones.

He replied, "No, with a casual roll of his eyelids.” Tony was not annoyed.

He curled his lips and said, "Oh, I almost forgot.On your birthday this weekend, your dad will be coming, right?"

The youth was slightly stunned.

He glanced at Anika, who was wrapping up a gift, and nodded casually.

"Mm, maybe.’’ Zac didn't care too much about birthdays.

If Tony hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten it.

"What are your birthday wishes? Is it to get a full Messi jersey?" Tony hugged his shoulders and smiled.

Zac quietly curled his lower lip, his gaze slightly tilted.

He lowered his eyes and turned around, the earphones wrapped around his slender knuckles.

He said casually, "As for me, I prefer practical things.For example, I occasionally listen to songs...Something related to that would be fine.

After he finished speaking, he raised his leg and the book on the desk landed at Anika's feet.

Anika, who was immersed in wrapping up the gift, turned her head doubtfully.

However, Zac withdrew his gaze and picked up the book, as if he had accidentally knocked off the things on the desk.

In a flash, it was Friday.

After school, Zac stopped Anika, who was about to leave after packing up her school bag.

"Zac, what's wrong with you?"

Anika had already noticed that he had been staring at her all day.

She hadn't finished writing the paper that she had studied by herself in the evening, and now she was being disturbed by someone.

She frowned and raised her eyes, and her tone was a little impatient.

Zac's expression was slightly sluggish as he swept his gaze across the empty table.

Then, he pursed his lips and asked, "Oh, where was the thing on your table earlier?"

"Wait, what?"Anika was puzzled.

"Just that-" he paused, purposely looking away.

"The gift box."

"Oh, it's for Alena" Zac frowned, "Oh, it's for her?"

"That's right.It's Alena’s birthday today"

Zac was speechless; he had nothing else to say.

He did not speak to her for about a week after that, and she was forced to give her two birthday gifts the following year when their relationship had improved.

Thinking about it now, Zac at that time...

Truly, it is awkward but cute.

Anika and her good friend returned to the villa at 7:00 p.m.

Tony had invited Zac out today.

They hadn't been out for a long time, so they probably wouldn't come back home so soon.

She changed into her pajamas upstairs.

While she was watching a yoga video in the living room, the doorbell rang.

Anika stood up and opened the door, thinking Zac had returned early.

However, when she saw the person clearly, she was taken aback, "Nataly?"

Nataly did not go out during the day because she had something to do.

Anika had not expected her to show up at this hour.

"I have no idea where to go, so I came here to see you."

Nataly wore no makeup and only wore a thin windbreaker.

Her face was also a little dull.

Anika had never seen her look so depressed before.She let her in.

"Did you have a fight with Brandon?" she asked after closing the door.

"Not at all?” said the speaker.

"Anika, I want a divorce?” Nataly said with a shake of her head.

Anika was taken aback, her eyes wide open, but she could not say what she wanted to say.

"What kind of stare is that?"

Nataly chuckled and sighed with relief.

"He did not cheat, so do not worry.It is just that I do not want to make his life any more difficult.” She took a seat on the sofa after walking over.

"I went to have a check-up a while ago; she said softly.

"Anika, I don't think I'll be able to have my own child."

Whether it was marriage or a career, Nataly had always planned her life. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Anika had noticed that Nataly had taken small steps in the right direction over the previous two years as she began to prepare for a pregnancy.

Unlike Anika's reservations, Nataly adored children, but fate could be cruel at times.

"His mother is nice to me, but it is impossible for her to be unconcerned about something like this.’’

Nataly sighed, reassuring herself, "But now that I have money and a job, I do not have to force men and children to understand me.There is no pressure on each other if we divorce"

Anika's brows drew together.

"What did Brandon say?" she inquired after a brief pause.

"He is opposed to divorce, but he recognizes that it will make me feel better.

He is okay with letting me move out first.

It would be great to be peaceful; Nataly said afterward, narrowing her eyes.
