The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 195

Nathan’s words sent a shockwave through the colleagues in the interrogation room, and they all came pouring out.

“Nathan, are you serious?”

“Are you really marrying our Dr. Hayes?”

“So you’re the fiancé Dr. Hayes was talking about? I thought it was that rich kid who came to drop off gifts last time!”

“That rich kid was pretty great, too. Our Dr. Hayes is such a good person, and her professional skills are top-notch. She’s had a line of suitors stretching out the door and halfway across the county. This ex-boyfriend here has some real nerve, thinking Dr. Hayes can’t live without him.”

A moment ago, everyone was afraid to speak up, worried they’d just make things worse for Nora.

But seeing Nathan step forward without hesitation and declare himself Dr. Hayes’s fiancé, everyone seemed to feel emboldened and started speaking their minds.

“Exactly! He dated Dr. Hayes for seven years without ever talking about marriage, and now he’s passive-aggressively implying she’s too old and no one else will want her. How disgusting can you get? Doesn’t he know everyone turns thirty? Why didn’t he propose sooner, then? If you really want to marry a girl, would you date her for seven years and not pop the question?”

“Why would he marry Dr. Hayes? He’s already made it official with his new girlfriend.”

“Tsk, tsk, so disgusting…”

Aaron and Mia’s faces went from pale to red.

But at that moment, Aaron couldn’t care less about any of that. He took a step forward, stared intently at Nora, and asked in a trembling voice, “Nora, he’s lying, right?”

“How could you possibly be marrying him?”

“No, you wouldn’t get married at all, would you?”

“You just said all that to scare me. You want me to give in and apologize, to break up with Mia, right?”

Nora frowned. She had never expected Nathan to suddenly step up and claim to be her fiancé.

Mia couldn’t stand seeing Aaron like this and slapped him hard on the back of the head.

“Aaron, can’t you have a little backbone!”

“She dumped you ages ago! Who are you putting on this pathetic act for?”

“Do you really think Nora is some kind of saint? Who in their right mind gets flash-married like that? Isn’t it obvious these two were hooking up behind your back all along? And you’re still here, foolishly apologizing. No wonder Nora broke up with you so suddenly. She found her next guy, so of course she was in a hurry to dump you, wasn’t she?”

Aaron clung to this like a lifeline, his eyes red as he looked at Nora. “Is that true?”

“Nora, have you been with this guy for a long time?”

Another officer couldn’t take it anymore and retorted, “That’s enough. Just because you two do that kind of thing doesn’t mean you can assume everyone’s like you, okay? Our Nathan was only transferred to Luminport City at the end of last month. How could they have been ‘hooking up behind your back’?”
