He Finally Noticed Me Right When I Was Leaving novel Chapter 142

Just then, a sudden thought sparked in her mind.

Caspian had hidden motives, unspeakable burdens that forced him to push Stella away with lies and cruelty.

So, what about Pierce? When he betrayed her, when he turned his back on her with such icy finality—could he have had unspeakable reasons, too?

But a second later, she let out a dry, humorless laugh.

What did it matter if he had a reason or not?

Regardless of the 'why,' the fact remained: he had abandoned her.

Seraphina used to wonder if maybe he had contracted a terminal illness, or if he'd gotten into a terrible accident that caused him to lose his memory.

But everything that had happened over the last three years had completely destroyed those theories.

His health was perfectly fine. If anything, his shoulders were broader than they had been three years ago, the lean frame of his youth replaced by a rugged, mature masculinity.

His brilliant mind was sharper than ever. Over those three years, he had led Prescott Holdings to unprecedented heights, acquiring countless mid-sized companies to build the massive empire it was today.

What possible hidden burden could he still have?

The more she thought about it, the harder she laughed.

Why was she even dwelling on this now?

Had his recent, relentless pestering actually managed to soften her heart?

No. Absolutely not.
