Need You Now novel Chapter 96

She thought things would work out as she expected. But it seemed that everything was back to the first place.

These days, Heidy and Hearst hadn't reached an agreement. Unless they met by chance, they wouldn't meet each other. As the doctor pronounced the result of Gavin's disease, Hearst still remained indifferent to Heidy. They were like strangers to each other. Heidy was heartbroken when she saw that everything had changed.

In the club, Heidy sat on the sofa with a glass of water in her hand. She looked ahead silently. At the moment, Jessica and Tony were playing the game. And Heidy just watched them from a distance and did not take part in it. She wanted to drink and get drunk, but she had to keep drinking water because of her pregnancy. Thinking of this, Heidy felt herself so pathetic.

Jessica turned to her and put her arms around Heidy's neck. She smiled and said, "Heidy, don't think about it anymore. They should be happy as they seldom had the chance to go out today. You can think about those unhappy things later."

Heidy smiled bitterly and spoke in a melancholy tone, "I wish I could think about it later, but I just can't control my mind. I guess that's why I'm destined to live such a miserable life."

Jessica patted Heidy on her head and said, "You're asking for trouble. Never mind. Hugh will make you feel better." After saying that, she winked at Hugh and continued to play the game with Tony.

Hugh sat opposite her and calmly looked at her worried face. He raised the glass and said calmly, "Every time you have something on your mind, it's because of that person. Since you're so miserable, how about letting it go?"

Hearing him, she was lost in thought. She slowly looked up at the man opposite, shook her head and said, "No."

He looked at her in surprise and asked, "Why? Since you are not happy, why are you insist on being with him? If it goes on like this, you will end up getting hurt."

Looking at the transparent liquid in the cup, Heidy slowly leaned back and did not speak. Being silent for a moment, Heidy smiled and said, "Even if everyone looks down on me, I will stick to it, because this is my choice. Since I have made my choice, I have to bear the consequence."

Hugh was surprised by her answer. He didn't expect that she would say something like that. Thinking of this, Hugh could not help but have a bit of admiration for Heidy. "Do you really love him?" Hugh slowly asked.

The emotionless man emerged in her mind. With a smile on her face, she said slowly, "Yes, I love him."

Hugh didn't say anything. He just stared at somewhere. Hearst's face emerged in his head. With his eyes narrowed, he gripped the cup more tightly. "Are you sure he can make you happy? Maybe he's just a frivolous man who likes to fool around with other people's feelings," Hugh said calmly.

Hearing this, Heidy looked at him and shook her head, "No. although I have known him for only a short time, I can feel it. At least, in the face of love, he is serious."

Hugh didn't answer. He just shook the wine in the glass and said with a smile, "Maybe he is hiding himself so well that you can't see his heart. I advise you to let him go, Ms. Heidy. Forced marriage didn't mean happiness. I don't think he is a responsible man. He seldom cares about you after you are pregnant."

Heidy lowered her head and said nothing. She smiled bitterly when she thought of Gavin. She really didn't want to turn the situation into a deadlock because of Gavin. Thinking of this, she felt sad. Heidy didn't say anything, but raised her head and drank quietly.

Hugh didn't say much. He changed the topic, simply chatted with her and drank with her. But when he saw her gloomy face, Hugh couldn't help but frown. Thinking about talking about Hearst, Hugh's eyes became darker.

After leaving the club, Heidy planned to go home directly. But she suddenly remembered the conversation with Hugh. She said she had to hold on. If the tension kept going on like this, she didn't know how this relationship would end. Thinking of this, she grasped the steering wheel tightly and drove to another direction.

She kept driving fast all the way. Half an hour later, she came to Hearst's villa. She rang the doorbell and a servant came to open the door. The servant was surprised to see her. "Mrs. Heidy, you're back."

Instead of entering her room, Heidy smiled and asked, "is Hearst at home?"

"No, he isn't home yet. You can get inside and wait for him," the servant gave way and said with a smile.
