Chapter 281
Hailey wondered why Ewan was not answering the phone.
“Did something happen to him?” she wondered. An uneasy feeling crept into Hailey’s heart. She was worried that Ewan might be in danger.
Carrying the bucket of popcom, Hailey rushed to Yorhine University in the rain. By the time she arrived, she was soaked
However, she managed to keep the popcom from the rain. Since they did not get to watch the movie, she wanted to at least share the popcom with Ewait.
Hailey rushed off to look for Ewan, but she soon stopped in her tracks. She had spotted him.
Ewan was right ahead of her. On top of that, there was someone with him–someone whom Hailey recognized. It was Melody.
Ewan had finished putting the medication on Melody’s leg and kept her company the entire time. Now that her ankle did not hurt and she could finally walk, he accompanied her home.
Halley watched the two walk alongside each other. Melody was talking shyly while Ewan was all smiles
The duo talked and laughed like a couple deeply in love with each other. Hailey could not move, confused as to why her fiance was with Melody.
“So, he didn’t show up at the cinema because of Melody?” Hailey thought. She thought she was stupid for worrying about Ewan and rushing back in the rain, only to find him with Melody.
Hailey took out her phone and dialed Ewan’s number. His phone rang in his pocket, but he had no intention of answering it. He simply continued talking to Melody
Hailey’s heart sank, and a rush of anger for being lied to seeped into her veins. She immediately ran and blocked their way. “Ewan, why are you with her?”
Both Ewan and Melody stopped in their tracks.
“Hailey,” said Melody, looking weak and scared.
Ewan quickly shielded Melody behind him and glared at Hailey, displeased. “Why are you yelling? You gave Melody a scare.”
Halley was seething with anger. “We agreed to watch a movie at 7:00 pm. Why didn’t you show up?
Ewan stared at Halley’s birthmark with disgust. Her disheveled and drenched look made him feel even more disgusted.
He uttered coldly, “I forgot. We can always watch the movie on another day. Do you need to be so unreasonable?”
The word “unreasonable” echoed in Hailey’s mind. She scoffed
“I don’t think you forgot about it. You were just busy having fun with Melody. Ewan, you’re cheating ”
Ewan felt a rush of guilt. “Melody and 1 didn’t do anything”
“Whether it’s physical or emotional, cheating is cheating. Since when are there levels to it?”
Halley’s sharp retorts left Ewan speechless.
Just then, Melody tugged at Ewan’s shirt. “I’m sorry, Ewan. It’s my fault for getting you guys into a fight,” Melody said guiltily.
Ewan turned to Melody and comforted her gently, “It’s not your fault, Melody. I can’t help it if that’s what she thinks.”
Glancing at Hailey, Melody flashed her a taunting smile. Halley’s blood boiled even more, but she simply turned around and left,
As Hailey left, she heard Melody’s voice behind her. “Ewan, what’s your relationship with Hailey?”
Ewan was silent for a few seconds before saying, “We’re nothing.”
Hailey Laughed at herself. She and Ewan were engaged, yet he said their relationship was nothing. It was too ridiculous for Hailey. In fact, she thought she was a joke for getting into a situation like that.
When Hailey had left, Ewan and Melody went on their way as well
