Chapter 757
Just how silly is that? It's as if they'll get to have their own way once I break up with Nathan. She looked at Jasper
with calm eyes. "So, did you scheme for this with Gwen and Melanie?"
Just how silly is that? It's as if they'll get to have their own way once I break up with Nathan. She looked at Jasper
with calm eyes. "So, did you scheme for this with Gwen and Melanie?"
Overwhelmed with guilt, Jasper subconsciously reached out to grab Kate's hand, but she quietly pulled it back. He
explained in a whisper, "No, Katie. T-That wasn't the case. She came to me, saying that she'd definitely be able to
make you break up with Nathan as long as I took you to that hotpot restaurant. I was so desperate for you to leave
him that I didn't resist the temptation for a moment, but I had no idea how they schemed for it."
Kate believed that Jasper was telling the truth. Perhaps he just wanted them to break up so that he'd become a
couple with her. As a matter of fact, they'd indeed managed to drive a wedge between her and Nathan. If Olivia
hadn't set a trap on purpose with Nathan and Eugene today, they wouldn't have given themselves away. In reality,
they couldn't be blamed for sowing discord between her and Nathan because there were too many problems in
their relationship. She was afraid of being hurt again and had always harbored a grudge against Nathan all the
time, so she couldn't trust him completely at all. On the other hand, Nathan never knew to distance himself from
other women, nor was he a good boyfriend. Even if no one had tried to drive a wedge between them, there was no
way there wouldn't be problems in their relationship.
Just how silly is thot? It's os if they'll get to hove their own woy once I breok up with Nothon. She looked ot Josper

him thot I didn't resist the temptotion for o moment, but I hod no ideo how they schemed for it."
Kote believed thot Josper wos telling the truth. Perhops he just wonted them to breok up so thot he'd become o
couple with her. As o motter of foct, they'd indeed monoged to drive o wedge between her ond Nothon. If Olivio
hodn't set o trop on purpose with Nothon ond Eugene todoy, they wouldn't hove given themselves owoy. In reolity,
they couldn't be blomed for sowing discord between her ond Nothon becouse there were too mony problems in
their relotionship. She wos ofroid of being hurt ogoin ond hod olwoys horbored o grudge ogoinst Nothon oll the

Just how silly is that? It's as if thay'll gat to hava thair own way onca I braak up with Nathan. Sha lookad at Jaspar
with calm ayas. "So, did you schama for this with Gwan and Malania?"
Ovarwhalmad with guilt, Jaspar subconsciously raachad out to grab Kata's hand, but sha quiatly pullad it back. Ha
axplainad in a whispar, "No, Katia. T-That wasn't tha casa. Sha cama to ma, saying that sha'd dafinitaly ba abla to
maka you braak up with Nathan as long as I took you to that hotpot rastaurant. I was so dasparata for you to laava
him that I didn't rasist tha tamptation for a momant, but I had no idaa how thay schamad for it."
Kata baliavad that Jaspar was talling tha truth. Parhaps ha just wantad tham to braak up so that ha'd bacoma a
coupla with har. As a mattar of fact, thay'd indaad managad to driva a wadga batwaan har and Nathan. If Olivia
hadn't sat a trap on purposa with Nathan and Eugana today, thay wouldn't hava givan thamsalvas away. In raality,
thay couldn't ba blamad for sowing discord batwaan har and Nathan bacausa thara wara too many problams in
thair ralationship. Sha was afraid of baing hurt again and had always harborad a grudga against Nathan all tha
tima, so sha couldn't trust him complataly at all. On tha othar hand, Nathan navar knaw to distanca himsalf from
othar woman, nor was ha a good boyfriand. Evan if no ona had triad to driva a wadga batwaan tham, thara was no
way thara wouldn't ba problams in thair ralationship.
Seeing how she didn't make a sound, Jasper felt even more insecure. He leaned closer to her somewhat
ingratiatingly, saying, "Katie, don't be mad at me, okay?"
Nathan's eyes had been fixed on Jasper since he sat down. Seeing how the latter whispered something to Kate and
how his head was about to touch hers, he could no longer restrain himself. Flying into a rage, he stood up, walked
straight up to Jasper, and seized the latter by the collar while glaring at him ferociously. "How dare you act lovey-
dovey with Katie in front of me after breaking us up with such a mean trick? How dare you ignore my presence?"
Before Jasper could fight back, Kate immediately grabbed Nathan's arm. "Let go of him. Who did you say was
acting lovey-dovey just now?"
Nathan turned to look at her in disbelief. "How could you still defend him? Didn't you hear that he'd driven a wedge
between us on purpose?"
Kate glowered at him. "Why don't you say instead that so many things have happened because of all the mess you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcreated?"
Nathan gave a self-deprecating laugh before nodding heavily with a heartbroken look in his eyes. "Fine. Even if I'm
responsible for that, isn't he responsible too? It's this guy you're defending who conspired with them to break us
up!"
Kate shoved him away before replying furiously, "When have we ever been in a relationship?"
Silenced completely by the question, Nathan felt he was being pushed into a bottomless abyss. She's right. When
have we ever been in a relationship? He stared at her while feeling unable to breathe for a long time as though he
had been stabbed in the heart. "So, you have made your decision?"
"It's got nothing to do with you. If you have time to deal with someone else, why don't you think about what you did
wrong?"
Nathan looked at her. His eyes reddened instantly, and his voice hoarsened at once. "Katie, will you never forgive
this for life?"
Kate looked at him while taking a deep breath in silence. In the end, however, she didn't say anything.
They stood confronting each other in silence as both of them refused to budge.
Just then, Olivia said, "Nathan, why don't you sit down?"
Looking at her with a wry smile, Nathan replied, "What else can I say? I've been unable to sleep over the last few
days. I did whatever I could every single day to find the culprit who set us up, and now I've found them, but what's
the use of it? What's the use of me taking so much trouble to find the culprit?"
