Chapter 785: Chapter 785: Others Are Angry, I’m Not
Listening to the two old men blatantly discuss her and Brandon’s marriage without any regard for her being right there.
Even though Abigail considered herself thick-skinned after living two lifetimes, she still couldn’t help blushing slightly. The two old men were chatting enthusiastically, completely ignoring her presence.
Although Abigail felt embarrassed on the surface, her heart involuntarily filled with pink bubbles, and she developed a longing for the wedding between her and Brandon.
Previously, their engagement ceremony had been luxurious and romantic, but Abigail was well aware that the engagement wasn’t truly meant for her; it was Brandon’s gift to Ruby.
No, to be precise, it was meant for anyone suitable at that time.
And that romantic scene, which was hailed as a classic, had no connection to Brandon. It was all just a grand performance.
She even suspected that if he hadn’t shown up later, Brandon probably wouldn’t have known what the engagement scene looked like.
So although she was the one led down the red carpet, her feelings were more of gratitude for his help rather than love.
Without love, there was no anticipation.
Moreover, at that time, she weighed nearly 200 pounds and had been deliberately teased and humiliated by Ruby and Mona. The self-confidence she tried hard to maintain was completely shattered. No matter how much she encouraged herself, she couldn’t escape a sense of embarrassment, or even worse embarrassment.
That engagement ceremony ultimately became a form of salvation for her.
It was also the beginning of her true affection for Brandon, yet it was a dark history she was reluctant to revisit.
But now things were different. They understood each other and had confidence in their future. Even Abigail, who prided herself on being rational, couldn’t help but feel a sense of anticipation amid the two old men’s enthusiastic discussion about the wedding.
Another important factor was her successful weight loss.
Living in the mundane world, it’s inevitable to endure the scrutiny of others. Even though she was strong enough internally to not care about those strange looks, she couldn’t stand others questioning her lover when they looked at him.
What do you think?
