Her cruel words were like a knife that twisted my heart. But before I could fully grasp the depth of her cruelty, my attention was quickly diverted by the Beta. While his face showed frustration, he made a slight smile as if he was satisfied.
Again, I thought to myself, ‘Why was Edward smiling? What was he planning?’
Edward’s smile grew, but he quickly hid it behind his usual stoic expression. It seemed that he found something satisfying in the chaos unfolding around him. I watched as he moved to the side while his gaze locked on Oliver with hidden meaning.
What happened before me felt like a puzzle piece falling into place, but I couldn’t see the whole picture. Edward’s behavior was intriguing and unsettling in my eyes. It made me more determined to see what would happen even though this whole scene made me uncomfortable.
From this place, I kept witnessing what happened to the world I had left behind. Even if my heart no longer beat like in the past, it still ached with every scene I watched. After all, I could see clearly that both Oliver and Meredith were planning their wedding happily.
