Chapter 0229 Nan \u2026 I whispered .<\/p>\n
What is it ? as she Im so sorry \u2026 she said hoarsely pulled her eyes away from me to look at the ground .<\/p>\n
But I cant stay here \u2026 Wait what ? I asked , my brows raising , Why not ? Whats wrong ? Please , talk to me \u2026 She shook her head ; she was trying hard to keep the tears from spilling out of her eyes .<\/p>\n
I have to go \u2026.<\/p>\n
she whispered .<\/p>\n
Before I could say another word , she was running past me and towards the front door .<\/p>\n
Nan ! I called after her , but it was no use , the front door was slamming shut and Nan was running out of the mansion .<\/p>\n
I stood , confused .<\/p>\n
I looked back at Chester who released a shaky breath of his own ; he blinked a few times as if he had now just realized where he was .<\/p>\n
He looked at me and then at Harper who was staring at him questionably .<\/p>\n
She raised her brows and folded her arms across her chest as she slid off the counter .<\/p>\n
What was that all about ? She asked him .<\/p>\n
He didnt answer her , but instead , he looked at me .<\/p>\n
Who was that ? He asked me , taking me by surprise .<\/p>\n
What ? I asked him .<\/p>\n
Why ? Just answer the question , he said again , more firmly and making me take a step back .<\/p>\n
His eyes had gone wild , and my heart was beating fast against my ribcage .<\/p>\n
Something was wrong and I was determined to figure out what the hell it was .<\/p>\n
My best friend , I answered , narrowing my eyes at him .<\/p>\n
Nan Rugby .<\/p>\n
His expression softened for a moment .<\/p>\n
Nan \u2026 he whispered as if he was tasting the name on his tongue , and from the look on his face , I would say he liked how it tasted .<\/p>\n
It made me even more curious ; I had never seen her act like this before and it was strange behavior for Chester as well .<\/p>\n
I looked over my shoulder at the closed doorway , ideas circulating through my mind .<\/p>\n
Did you know her or something ? Harper asked , a twinge of jealousy in her tone as her face grew impossibly red with pent up frustration .<\/p>\n
He looked at her and I could see the apology on his lips , but he didnt speak it out loud .<\/p>\n
Instead , he turned away from her and started to walk past me and out the front door as well .<\/p>\n
He didnt run like Nan did , but he walked with determination .<\/p>\n
I couldnt help it \u2026 I had to follow him .<\/p>\n
I needed to know exactly what was going on and why it had to do with my best friend .noveldrama<\/p>\n
I chased after him and we ended up outside on the front patio .<\/p>\n
Chester was glancing around at the front yard with a timid frown on his face .<\/p>\n
1\/2 Chapter 0229 I could practically hear his heart beating rapidly in his chest .<\/p>\n
I was also surprised that Nan was able to leave so quickly .<\/p>\n
She must have gotten into her car and peeled away , leaving no trace of her presence .<\/p>\n
Chester leaned against the railing of the porch and sighed , his shoulders sagging slightly .<\/p>\n
The front door swung open and then slammed shut ; I didnt need to turn to see who it was that had followed us outside .<\/p>\n
I looked over my shoulder at a very pissed of Harper who was glaring at Chester as if he had just slapped her .<\/p>\n
She had her arms wrapped around her body and her lips were pressed in a thin line .<\/p>\n
What the fuck , Chester .<\/p>\n
Who was that woman ? She asked , her brows furrowed as she glared at him .<\/p>\n
How could you chase after her and leave me alone like that ? Im sorry , Harper , he murmured .<\/p>\n
But it was a mistake to make out with you like that in the kitchen .<\/p>\n
It shouldnt have happened .<\/p>\n
You were right when you said we shouldnt be having a relationship while we work together .<\/p>\n
His words took me by surprise ; Chester wasnt usually the logical one .<\/p>\n
He was a flirt and never cared about such a thing before .<\/p>\n
It seemed to have taken Harper by surprise too because her mouth fell open .<\/p>\n
W \u2026 what are you saying , Chester ? She asked , I could hear the hurt in her voice as she fought to keep her emotions in check .<\/p>\n
He sighed and ran his fingers through his blond shaggy hair before he turned ot face her .<\/p>\n
His eyes were so serious , and it made Harpers eyes grow wide as she took a step away from him .<\/p>\n
Im saying that we cant see each other anymore , he told her firmly .<\/p>\n
Im sorry \u2026 but whatever this is \u2026 he said , motioning between the two of them .<\/p>\n
Its over .<\/p>\n
