The news of Greyson's engagement was all over the newspapers the next day.
Hattie was sad, but she still read every single message as if she was self-abusing.
The woman engaged to Greyson called Rowan, who was a noble girl. She was beautiful, cultivated, and had a rich family. Anyway, she was a million times better than the daughter of a poor family like Hattie.
The two of them standing together was simply like an extremely nice looking couple.
It was said that they fell in love at first sight, announced their engagement the day after they met, and would hold an engagement party a month later.
Hattie put down her phone. She buried her face in her knees and swallowed the bitterness in her heart alone.
Jensen knocked on the door and spoke softly, "Hattie, let's go out for dinner today. You should have a break."
Hattie was not interested and shook her head instead. She didn't want to do anything right now.
Jensen gently stroked her hair and said softly, "You can't always stay home like this. If you do, your mood will only get worse. Come out with me for a walk."
Hattie couldn't talk him out of it, so she ended up going to a private restaurant with him for lunch.
But fate was just so wonderful. Hattie met Greyson at the restaurant, along with his fiancée, to whom he had just been engaged for a week.
Hattie was sitting by the window. She turned her head and saw them walking through the restaurant's garden, holding hands.
Rowan tilted her head and was saying something to Greyson, and her smile was very sweet. She even stood on her tiptoes and kissed Greyson’s face in a cute and playful way.
And Greyson wrapped his arms around her waist.
They looked just like a couple in love
Hattie froze as she watched. Tears slipped down her face at some point, and she was completely unaware of it.
The two of them passed by the window and Greyson seemed to sense something. He suddenly turned his head and looked towards Hattie.
Hattie was unable to avoid it and met Greyson's gaze.
