Chapter 358

Mila and Fenna returned to their seats one after another. Cameron had already prepared those rolled– up tissues for the next round of the game. He announced, “Let’s continue.”

Mila di ank the remauce, put the empty glass down, and said, “I just remembered I have

something to get done. I’ll be on my way now. You guys have a good time.”

Phoebe looked at Mila blankly and then stood up. Mila nodded at everyone before leaving but suddenly Nathan caught her wrist. Mila stood still in place.

They both froze, with her standing and him sitting. He refused to let go of her hand.

All eyes were drawn to Nathan’s hand. His eyes were shadowed as he held onto her hand. Mila’s heart trembled with pain as she felt the warmth of his palm.

“Nate, there’s something I have to do. My grandma’s looking for me.” Mila found an excuse. She pushed his hand away but she couldn’t get Nathan to loosen his grip.

The pain in Nathan’s heart was amplified a hundred fold after the drink. It surged like a tempestuous wave in the very depths of his soul. There were thousands of words he wanted to say to her but he couldn’t say any of them.

The only thing he could do was stare at the empty glass on the table.

He felt an agonizing torment as he slowly loosened his grip on Mila’s wrist. The pain was so intense that it felt like he was swallowing blades with every breath he took. Eventually, he let his arm fall.

Mila forced a smile and said, “Phoebe and I will go first. Goodbye.”

She headed for the gate without looking back. In a breeze, she passed the streetlights one by one. Her tears glistened in her eyes as she passed the lights.

Back at the table in the garden, Cameron turned to Nathan, who looked like a lost soul. Nathan’s eyes were unfocused as he stared at the empty glass Mila had drunk from. He looked utterly defeated and his reddened eyes were visible even in the dim, yellowish light.

“Why are you still sitting here? Go after her!” Cameron urged.

Nathan ignored him with a sigh and poured himself a beer.

“What’s wrong with you? You should go after her if you love her. You’re outstanding. Is there any woman you can’t win over? I don’t think any woman is beyond your reach!” Cameron said with frustration.

Fenna nudged Cameron in displeasure. “Cam, stop being silly. What’s the point in going after her? Not all women are worth it. Also, she doesn’t belong here and will leave sooner or later.”

Nathan continued to drink silently. Cameron slammed the table and said imperiously, “Then find a way to make her stay!”

“She doesn’t love Nate!” Fenna shouted in anger.

into her. Shouldn’t he-

“Who says you always get paid for what you give?”

Cameron was at a loss for words.

“Besides, Wanda has been selfish from the start. Nate was her childhood sweetheart. He treated her well and gave her so much.

“And what did she do in return? She completely forgot about Nate after she went abroad. She unfriended him and cut off all contact with him.

“If it weren’t for her amnesia, she probably wouldn’t have given him a second glance for the rest of her life! Why should Nate hang on to such a woman?” Fenna said scornfully.

Cameron thought Fenna’s words made sense. He looked at Nathan and saw that he had already finished two bottles.
