Me Before You novel Chapter 2

Anna knew that if anyone didn’t want to lend her money, she can’t force them.

"OK... Thank you, aunt..." Anna said and stood up. She was embarrassed to stay here longer.

Claire held Anna’s arm and said, "Anna, don't worry. Talk to your mother again. Maybe she will change her mind."

Anna's heart sank, she told Claire about the conversation she heard today.

"What? Your mother wants you to marry? But aren't you only eighteen?" Claire was shocked.

Anna smiled bitterly, "That's why I came here to borrow money from you..."

"Anna, don't worry, there must be a solution..." Claire said.

"Anyway, thank you, Claire." Although she didn't get the money, she was satisfied by Claire’s concern.

They walked to the door and saw a boy wearing a white shirt coming towards them. Anna looked up. She thought he was her Boyfriend, John Peter? Why is he here? She was confused. She was very busy during these summer vacations and didn’t get the time to contact John Peter. But she was happy to see him.

"John!" She walked towards John Peter without noticing the disgust in his eyes.

John Peter also came towards her. When she was only a step away, he stopped and said, "Anna, so finally you appeared."

"What?" Anna was confused. They didn’t see each other in summer vacations. She thought John Peter would be very happy to see her but his reaction was opposite to her expectations.

"Don't pretend. If you want to break up, you can say it to me directly. Why are you trying to hide? Why are you avoiding me?" John spoke angrily.
