Chapter 543
Could she stop acting like that?
When Kate got home, she immediately threw herself on the bed. Ignoring the injuries on her face, she buried her
head in the blankets, wanting to burst into tears. She hated herself for being worthless and being unable to let go of
such a small thing. Then, she took her phone and called Olivia.
Olivia had finished work early today, and she was quite surprised to receive a call from Kate. "Why are you calling
me?"
Kate didn't speak. It was a long time before she took a breath and muttered, "Olivia, I feel terrible."
Olivia's eyebrows furrowed slightly. "What's the matter?"
"I bumped into Nathan today when I was being harassed by someone. Just when I had nowhere to go, Nathan came
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin and saved me."
Olivia hummed in reply. "Yeah, isn't that great? Why do you feel terrible?"
Kate didn't know what to say. "Just to save me, he was hit in the arm with a chair by that man. I think he's probably
hurt."
"Then why don't you take him to the hospital?"
Kate said a little spitefully, "But I don't want to take him to the hospital."
Olivia smiled and said, "What's wrong with taking someone who got injured while saving you to the hospital? Isn't it
normal? It doesn't mean that you're trying to take things further with him or anything. It's just common courtesy, all
right? On the contrary, if you don't go, it makes you look like you're scared of seeing him and that you're avoiding
him on purpose."
With a pout, Kate mumbled, "He has enough people caring for him by his side. Why should I go?"
It dawned on Olivia that Kate said she felt terrible because someone else was there. "Who?"
"The one you saw in the shop."
"Are you talking about Nathan's colleague?"
Kate said, "Yeah. She kept worrying about Nathan's wound. One moment, she'd ask if it hurts, and the next, she'd
ask if he wants to go to the hospital. I couldn't get a word in at all."
Olivia replied, "Nathan said that they were just colleagues."
"How could they just be colleagues when they behaved like that? You didn't see how eager that woman was to take
care of him."
"Then, Katie, what do you feel? From what I can tell, Nathan has feelings for you now. If you still like him, try to let
go of the past and date him again. But if you really can't forget the past, then don't force yourself and try to find
someone else. Don't torture yourself like that."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Olivia, I think I may be sick. I'm so conflicted. My heart wants to see him really badly, but my mind is telling me
that a man like him isn't worth it. Every time I see him, I think of Melanie, and he suddenly turns into a promiscuous
person in my mind. Even when he used to change girlfriends frequently, I've never felt this way. It's not that I don't
want to abandon the past and start a relationship with him. We aren't together yet, but I'm already worrying about
our future. He still can't resist the temptation of the women around him. What do you think is wrong with me?
Sniffle... I feel terrible."
Hearing this, Olivia was also distressed, and she hurriedly comforted, "Katie, listen to me. You aren't sick; it's just
that that incident hit you too hard. How much you care about it proves how much you like him. I just want to tell you
that you can test him for a period of time. I didn't say that you have to be with him now. I was reminding you that
you have to grasp the time of the test well, and you can't just ignore him for too long, or it would be hard to
guarantee that he wouldn't fall for other women instead. By then, both of you would have to go home empty-
handed."
Kate insisted, arguing stubbornly, "He can fall for other women if he wants. Why would I care? Did he ever take a
break from dating all these years? He always moves on after a break up. If his love is that cheap, I don't need it."
