Thud.
Zach’s phone fell on the floor. He wanted to pick it up, but he was feeling lost, and his hands were shaking.
“Stella, are you really… abandoning me?”
He did not seem happy that I cancelled the wedding.
But he should have been happy.
In truth, before Zach said that he was okay with marrying me, I had proposed to him.
At that time, I found that I was pregnant, and I did not want my child to be an illegitimate child with no father.
But when I proposed, Zach was shocked for a long time.
“Starling, can’t we spend the rest of our days like this? Marriage isn’t important to us. I’ll take care of you, protect you, and keep
you company forever.”
At that time, he must have rejected my proposal, and he was only willing to marry me because of Catherine’s illness.
Later on, we had our argument, and I realized that he would never marry me, that was why I cancelled the wedding dinner.
But I wanted to tell him the news as his birthday present.
