My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 96

"Nicholas." The moment the assistant uttered Nicholas' name, I felt like my life was a joke. It felt like I was just going around in circles. "Who else knows about this?" I asked my assistant.

"Just you and I," he replied.

"When did Nicholas go for the blood test?" I asked.

"He did it yesterday. It was an express test, so the results came out really quickly. I was the first to find out about it, and I haven't told anyone else," my assistant said.

"Don't tell anyone else for now," I ordered. Since Nicholas had gone for the blood test, it meant that Quinn must have told him about the situation between her and me. He would definitely agree to donate his kidney to Quinn. Since Quinn and Nicholas didn't have much of a relationship, I was certain that Nicholas was donating the kidney for my sake. The way he was acting made me feel terrible.

It seemed like Nicholas refused to let me go, even if I couldn't produce a spawn for him! I couldn't allow him to donate his kidney for my sake. I would rather give my kidney to Quinn than allow him to play the role of a saint!

After ending the call, I couldn't sleep well throughout the entire night. I still felt troubled even after my assistant came to pick me up the next day. When I got into the car, I couldn't help but remind him once again to keep this matter a secret. "What about Quinn?" He had asked the most crucial question. Quinn was in desperate need of a kidney donor.

"You can continue looking for another donor," I uttered with a sigh. It was slightly before noontime when my assistant and I arrived at Sundew. Clair and Florence picked me up from the airport—Florence looked like a skinny young girl, especially when she stood beside Clair. "How young," I whispered to myself.

Florence was extremely young. She was about the same age as me. I heard that she wasn't even of age when she first dated Clair. They had gone through a lot in the past few years. Even as time went on, they still chose each other. Meanwhile, Nicholas and I… We were a mistake. When I wanted to continue with this mistake, Nicholas chose to push me away. He even claimed that it was for my own good.

I walked over to hug Florence, and Clair teased us when he saw this. "You guys seem to be even more intimate than Florence and I," he said.

"Are you getting jealous over this?" I chuckled while gazing at him. He pressed his lips together. "I'm sorry," he uttered. I understood what he meant, so I shook my head before explaining myself. "It's all in the past. I've let it go now."

"What about Nicholas?" Clair asked me. Most of the people around me seemed to be siding Nicholas, and they were all asking me about how he was. How was I supposed to know? I didn't respond to Clair, and the atmosphere turned rather awkward before Florence grabbed onto my arm. "Let's head home for now."

I stayed in the Norman Residence for a few hours. My assistant and I spent this time discussing how we were going to ruin the partnership between the Yates and Gant Families the next day. This was a tough situation, especially since they had already discussed their partnership. The Yates Family had

already invested a huge sum into this, and all that was left was the signature on their contract.

Clair noticed how my assistant and I couldn't seem to come to a conclusion after discussing it for a long time. "Should I contact the Gant Family for you guys?" he offered kindly. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"I'll deal with it," I replied while shaking my head. I wanted to be the one who ruined Alice. Eventually, I got bored of staying in the Norman Residence, so I brought my assistant out for a walk. Clair seemed rather reluctant about this matter. "Do you guys want to stay for a while longer?"

"I just want to take a walk," I replied with a smile. Clair still seemed rather hesitant. He pressed his lips together while giving me a reminder. "Okay. Take care. Make sure that you and Gary don't get lost."

Gary and I walked out of the Norman Residence, and he whispered into my ear once we got to the exit. "President Felix, I overheard Mr. Norman and Florence saying that President Forger is dropping by later." I finally understood why Clair didn't want me to leave. Since when did Nicholas and he team up?

I frowned before I led Gary to one of the most popular red-light districts in Sundew. The booming music there was perfect for youngsters. I had never stepped foot in this area until Merlin brought me over two months ago. The next time I visited this area was the night before. I liked hanging out at this place.

Gary was often too busy with work to have time to relax. Once I got into the bar, I told him to find his own fun. Gary didn't know how to have fun on his own, so he sat beside me while sipping on some alcohol. He claimed that he didn't know how to dance when I told him to try it out.

"You're such a boring man," I uttered with a laugh. "I'm having quite a lot of fun now," he replied before drinking from his glass. I took my glass up to sip on some alcohol before we began to talk about work. He said that the Felix Corporation's business had seen some decline in the past three years, but that

business was generally stable. Once this whole issue was over, the Felix Corporation would proceed with more stability. We would have the Norman Family's support in Sundew.

The Norman and Felix Families worked closely together. Although we were two different families, we shared our resources with one another. While I was talking to my assistant, I bumped into a familiar face in the bar. Leon had mentioned that she would be in Bryxton by then, so I didn't expect to see her in Sundew. I recalled how Leon said that she was from Sundew.

The woman was pale and slim based on my impression of her. Right then, she was dressed in a purple skirt and was sitting at the bar while talking to the bartender. Her posture seemed extremely elegant and classy as she sipped on her drink. She looked like an experienced drinker, yet she seemed youthful and fresh.

"Do you know her?" I narrowed my eyes while asking my question. Gary followed my gaze to look at the woman, and he hesitated for a long while before responding. "I've met her in a gathering, but I don't know her name. I recall others calling her Ms. Gant."

After a period of silence, my assistant continued to explain himself. "I recall her being an extremely wealthy woman when I last saw her in the gathering. Should I investigate her past?"

"Hold on," I uttered. Then, I pulled my phone out to call Leon. He took a while to pick up. "Is anything the matter?" he asked after a long period of silence. Leon had been extremely distant for a while after hearing what I told him about Quinn the night before. It was the first time I had seen him tear up. Yet, he seemed to have returned to his usual, impressive self. It seemed like he had a soft heart beneath his tough outer shell.

I took a glance at the slim woman sitting comfortably by the bar. "What's the name of the woman who's

visiting Bryxton?"

Leon froze for a moment. "Why are you asking about her?" he asked in a surprised tone. "I'm just curious," I replied half-heartedly.

"Francesca," he replied.

"Oh. That's a nice name," I commented.

"Why are you asking about her?" he asked in a rather concerned tone.

"It's nothing. I'm just curious," I replied. After that, I chit-chatted with Leon for a while more before ending the call. Then, I got Gary to do some research on the woman's name. He pulled his phone out to order someone to investigate her background. Soon enough, we got the information we needed.

When I saw the details, I was filled with shock. "She's Leon's girl. Previously, she had been living in a small town with Leon. She was a replacement he found, and he had made this clear to her. Why do you think she's scheming with all of this?" I whispered to my assistant.

He couldn't find an answer, so he simply kept his phone away before gazing at the woman by the bar. "The first time I met her was many years ago. She had just returned from studying overseas back then, and I heard that she graduated from Manchester University. The people around me really admired her, and they all called her Ms. Gant," he said.

"Gary, she's just like me in the past," I uttered with a sigh.

"Francesca Gant, the CEO of the almighty Gant Family in Sundew. She has a net worth of billions, yet she hid all of this just to be with Leon… She's a pitiful woman, President Felix," Gary uttered.
