The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1455

What Cora said was true. Back then, Cassie had never had a relationship. She was overprotective of herself. Whenever a man wanted to ask her out or talk to her, Cassie would act like a hedgehog, curling up into a spiky ball. Anyone who tried to get closer to Cassie would get hurt.

Soon, no one would even bother to ask Cassie out.

But Cassie changed when she met Nick. He was kind and innocent. Cassie finally let her guard down. And when they started dating, Cassie thought it would be her first and last relationship. She never thought that Nick would cheat on her.

Cassie smiled bitterly, "Cora, it's all over now. Why bring it up again?"

"I brought it up because I hope that you can get it together and stop punishing yourself for Nick. He's such an asshole and it isn't worth it."

"I would know whether or not it's worth it," Cassie replied indifferently.

"What about my brother?" Cora asked excitedly. "He loves you with his whole heart, Cassie. I have never seen him this obsessed with a woman before, never. At first, I didn't want him to chase after you. You're so innocent and kind and my brother is so scheming. You're so different that I didn't think you two would ever make a good match. But now I understand. I was wrong."

"What do you mean?" Cassie asked Cora.

"What I'm trying to say is that if a woman marries a man who doesn't love her, she won't live a happy life. However, if she marries someone who loves her so much even though she doesn't love him, she can still be happy.

Cassie, I'm only saying this because you're my best friend. I don't want you to be upset. Trust me and believe yourself. You deserve to be happy. So leave Nick and forget about him, okay?"

Cassie lowered her eyes and remained silent.

The wind was blowing harder as they stood on the rooftop. Cassie was very emotional right now and she didn't know how to express her feelings. Her feelings piled up. Cassie wished she could just let it all out.

"Did Jordan tell you about Nick?" Cassie suddenly asked.

Cora didn't want to lie, so she answered, "Jordan called me last night and asked me what you liked to eat and not. I was confused so I asked him what was going on and then he told me."

"What did he see?" Cassie pressed Cora.

"He said he saw you wandering around Nick's house. If Nick didn't do something to hurt you, you wouldn't be so sad and desperate. Not to mention how unsafe it was to wander by yourself so late at night."

"How does Jordan know where Nick lives?" Cassie asked again.

"Honestly, I don't know. Anyway, Jordan really cares about you. When he drove you to the hotel, he called me and I told him what food you liked and didn't like."

Cassie finally had answers. It was Jordan who booked her breakfast earlier.

What was ironic was that Cassie thought it was Nick.

'Cassie, you're such a fool!' Cassie thought to herself.

She slowly closed her eyes and smiled bitterly. A few moments later, she opened her eyes again.
