Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 165

Chapter 165 I Respected Your Choice.

Nolan couldn’t escape in front of everyone. He stared at Peyton and said. “I had no intention of canceling the engagement.”

Helena nervously swallowed and quickly looked at him, “Nolan, are you saying… you chose me?”

Nolan nodded.

Helena instantly felt relieved. She excitedly ran over and grabbed Nolan’s arm.

“Nolan, I knew you loved me. Dad, Grandpa, did you both hear that?”

The coldness on Jimmy’s face diminished a lot. “You are a man. I hope you can keep your word.”

“My daughter will be in your care from now on,” Elbert patted his shoulder.

This result was within Peyton’s expectations. She had known Nolan’s choice for a long time.

When this moment arrived, she still felt disappointed.

She pulled her hand out of Nolan’s palm and said, “Nolan, I respect your decision.”

Nolan watched her slowly leave, and in front of Jimmy, he had no way

at all.

Colette thought for a moment and quickly chased after.

When Peyton left, she stood up straight. She was like a lone wolf,

tending to her wounded body alone under the tree.

“Peytie,” Colette caught up with Peyton briskly, “I want to talk to you.”

Peyton looked at the breathless Colette. After today’s events, she had a clearer understanding of Colette’s thoughts.

From now on, Peyton would no longer have unrealistic ideas.

“Mrs. Chase, rest assured, I would not bother your son–in–law anymore,” she said coldly.

Colette blocked her way, “Peytie, wait for me for five minutes.”

Peyton glanced at her indifferently and said, “Now that you have achieved your goal. The person you should be focusing on is Nolan, not me. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

“Peytie.”

A surge of blood gushed from Peyton’s throat. She frowned and forcefully pushed aside Colette, even quickening her pace to leave.

Colette called out behind her, and the next second she fainted.

Peyton turned around and instinctively tried to help Colette up.

It seems that Colette indeed had a heart disease.

As soon as Peyton saw Elbert chasing after him, he quickly walked

away.

At the deserted corner, Peyton spat out a mouthful of blood.

Peyton leaned against the tree and slowly slid down, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. Peyton chuckled self–deprecatingly.

Peyton thought to himself, “I am such a failure, unable to keep anyone

in my life.”

Her lover and her relatives eventually came to Helena’s side.

As Peyton was thinking, her heart started to ache so much that she couldn’t breathe. She knelt on the ground, supporting herself with one hand on a tree branch, and spat out blood.

Looking at the bloodstains, Peyton’s first thought was that luckily she didn’t embarrass herself in front of the Chase family.

Peyton had not eaten anything, and her stomach went through several painful episodes of vomiting.

Unfortunately, she rushed out today and didn’t have time to take painkillers.

Peyton curled up under the tree, feeling her consciousness slowly slipping away.

She held her phone, ready to dial the emergency number.

She didn’t want to die yet, at least not today!

Peyton’s vision had become somewhat blurry. Her fingers trembled as she pressed the emergency call button.

However, she realized that she was detached at that moment. She

fainted.

With a thud, Peyton crashed onto the ground.

In the last second before losing consciousness, she seemed to see Nolan’s car leaving from the roadside not far away.

Footsteps slowly approached, and a person sighed as they walked up to her. They then crouched down and picked up Peyton.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
