The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2213

Listening to Eric’s words, Nicole felt the air around her ears freeze for a moment.

She thought about it for a second and found that there was actually no fluctuation or feeling in her heart.

There were no emotions, shock, or regret.

There was nothing.

It was like talking to a stranger.

Nicole raised her head and looked at Eric’s face.

It was familiar, but she did not feel anything.

The corners of her mouth twitched, and her voice was as soothing as the wind.

“Eric, it’s because I saw your intentions that I refused your kindness. Do you understand?”

Eric’s eyes were stunned for a moment.

He frowned. His facial features were as delicate as a sculpture. At this moment, he looked unreconciled and puzzled.

“Why? He’s no longer here. I can understand that you can’t get over him for a while, but it won’t last forever. Since you can get out of the pain, you can also forget about your feelings for him eventually, right?”

Nicole looked at him. Her tone became a little cold.

“No. I will never forget about him, and I’ve never put the pain behind me. I just stopped thinking about the pain for the time being. I didn’t forget it. I love him, so I naturally can’t forget every moment that I was with him. Even if I do fall in love again one day, it’ll only be because Clayton is standing in front of me.”

It was Clayton’s appearance that made her feel like she had gotten a tenfold response for her feelings.

He made her feel warmth and kindness all the time, as well as an irreplaceable sense of security.

No one else in this world could make her feel the same way.

The wounds that Eric inflicted on her had healed perfectly.

Nicole knew what it was like to be loved by someone, so how could she still like someone so selfish?

Eric’s expression slowly stiffened.

He deeply suppressed the strong emotions in his eyes, and he looked hurt.

“Back then… Did you love me that much too?”

In those three years, Eric never responded to her feelings.

Three years later, every day was torture for Eric.

Eric wanted to recall the beautiful memories, but he could not find the slightest trace of them.

Nicole had given all her love to another person.

She looked straight at him without the slightest fluctuation in emotion.

“No, it’s different. Before I was with Clayton, I thought that my fondness, passion, and sacrifice for you was love, but that was not it. It was more so because I was unreconciled. I knew you didn’t like me, but I forced you to marry me. It was my wishful thinking. Later, our marriage ended in failure. I thought you wronged me, but in fact, you just looked down on me. Those three years were very important to me, but they were nothing to you. Speaking of it now, I morally kidnapped you back then. But after I was with Clayton, I felt so stupid for my past behavior. That was not love. It was just an obsession because I didn’t get my feelings reciprocated. Love is every moment I’m with Clayton. Every emotion we give will receive a response, and we won’t ignore any changes in each other. We cherish the time we’re together and won’t waste a minute of it.”

When she said this, Nicole lowered her head and smiled as if she was recalling something beautiful.

When she smiled, her side profile was beautiful and delicate. The light from a distance outlined her profile in an extraordinarily soft and beautiful way.

It was as if a faint halo had enveloped her.

Time seemed to stand still.

Eric stared at her quietly while his heart was bleeding.

However, he had to smile and listen to her calmly as she told him she never loved him.

That was too painful.
