Chapter 169 Be Careful When Making Friends
The tires screeched.
Westley pulled over, muttering a curse under his breath. Then, he turned, giving Holly a cold, stern glare.
“What exactly do you want to know?” he asked, clearly annoyed.
Holly was hit on the head by the sudden brake and then looked up at Westley’s gloomy and horrible eyes. She was shocked and rubbed her forehead, looking at Westley uneasily.
“Westley, I was just…”
Holly pursed her lips, a little unsure of what to say
“Whatever’s going on with me and Helena is none of your business, Westley started, taking a deep breath. “If you don’t want me to throw you out of the car, you’d better not ask me about it again.”
Helena And Holly had always bren chote. They wrte cousins and in fact, best friends. To Westley, however… he was just being friendly with Holly for Helena’s sake
Westley was clear with his boundaries. Some limes shouldn’t be crossed.
Especially not about his private life.
“Westley, I know it’s not my place to ask, but do you remember? You promised Helena that you would love her all your life, and yet… you went on and married another woman…
“Why do you care?! Helena’s gone!” Westley’s eyes burned with anger.
“First Austin, and now this… damn it! I shouldn’t have picked these scoundrels up. I should’ve let Micheal or someone else do this for me. I could’ve even asked them to stay in the car for a whole night.
He couldn’t deal with the constant annoyance anymore. He believed Holly wasn’t the type to be meddlesome.
But now, she was getting on his nerves. How dare she?
“I’m sorry, Westley. I was a little too worried this time. Every time I thought of Helena, L..”
Holly stopped herself. She knew quite
temperament. If she continued to press him for answers, it would only make himm even ingrier. When that happened, apologies would be useless.
Holly bit her lip
She didn’t want to make things worse.
“Just don’t mention Helena‘s name in front of me anymore. I just want her to rest in peace.” Westley started the enigine.
Although they’ve already dropped the topic, the atmosphere in the car was still tensed and awkward. Holly tried to avoid looking at Westley and kept quiet. She’d learned her lesson.
No matter how pathetic and unworthy Gabrielle was, she was Westley’s legal wife now. Nothing could change that.
But Holly still wanted to believe that Westley had kept Helena in his heart. That to him, she was still the most
important person in his life, his true love As long as he loved Helena, he wouldn’t give his heart to anyone else, i
It was typical of someone with Westley’s standing to do. Mia understood that Austin did something to offend him. She didn’t pursue the issue any further.
