Facade of Love Novel novel Chapter 361

Chapter 361 The Flowers of Tully City are Gorgeous 

Liam frowned, gave Sweety a fleeting look, and nodded at me, his expression unreadable. Got it,he muttered

He handed Sweety her phone back with a steady voice, Ms. Taters, hang onto your phone.” 

As she took her phone, tears welled up in Sweety’s eyes, her gaze lingering on Liam as he walked away

I tried to keep my feelings in check as I turned to her. Sweety, remember our English teacher from six years back, the one who used to find us clients? You remember what happened to her, right?” 

She looked away, a mix of defiance and hurt in her eyes. Don’t compare me to her. I’m not trying to wreck his marriage. I justI just want to see him, that’s all. I’m not the other woman

I was on the verge of a breakdown. He is married, you know. Even a few extra glances is a mistake for both of you. Love is not wrong, but it’s meant to heal, not harm. He’s taken, and you’re single. We’ve been taught about decency since we were kids. Did you forget all that?” 

Enough!She screamed at me, her voice so loud that it turned heads all around us. Tears welled up in her eyes as she shot back, So I’m shameless, big deal! Do you want me to end up like that English teacher, hated and insulted by everyone, until she jumped off a building? Is that what you would prefer, for me to be dead?” 

I felt a lump in my throat and shook my head. You know that’s not what I am saying.Our sixthgrade English teacher had an affair, got outed by the wife, and was shamed by everyone at school until she could no longer bear it and took her own life

Sweety and I saw the aftermath: her body destroyed on the pavement. After that, Sweety swore she would never get involved with a married man, saying it would be the death of her

Now she was breaking her own rule, turning into the very person she used to despise

She would not listen to me, her eyes fiery with hurt. Fine, I’m worse than dirt to you. If that’s how it is, then stay out of my business. I’ve got to go.She stormed off before I could 

say another word, disappearing into the bustling night market crowd

Yvette.Emily’s voice snapped me out of my daze. She looked at me, her face the picture of serenity, as if nothing was wrong

I blinked away my confusion and asked, Emily, where did you go?” 

She flashed a sheepish smile. I wandered down to the river for a bit. When I turned around to find you, you were gone. Sorry about that. I got so caught up in my own world that I didn’t even notice you weren’t with me.” 

I bit my lip and gave a small nod, guilt creeping up inside. I was torn about whether to spill the beans to her on the scene I had stumbled upon with Liam and Sweety earlier

After a brief pause, I locked eyes with her and ventured, Emily, you looked like you were searching for someone earlier. Did you find them?” 

Her face froze for a split second. Nono, who would I be looking for? Why do you ask all of

sudden?” 

2/2 

I bit my lip again. I was not clueless. Since we had hit the night market, she had been scanning the crowd nonstop. It was obvious to anyone who was paying attention that she was on the lookout for someone. At first, I was just puzzled. However, after running into Liam and Sweety, the pieces fell into place

I chose not to call her out on it and just nodded and suggested, Let’s head back.” 

Whatever was up with her and Liam, it was not my place to meddle. In the event that she did not want to open up, I was not going to force it. Everyone had their pride

Back at the hotel, Emily retreated to her room. I felt a wave of sadness as I drifted towards mine. Reaching my door, I stopped shorta bunch of pink hibiscuses hung from the doorknob. They were gorgeous, wrapped up fancily. I hesitated, wondering if I had the wrong 

room

I doublechecked the room number and the floor. Nope, this was definitely my room
