Chapter 543
Could she stop acting like that?
When Kate got home, she immediately threw herself on the bed. Ignoring the injuries on her face, she
buried her head in the nkets, wanting to burst into tears. She hated herself for being worthless and
being unable to let go of such a small thing. Then, she took her phone and called Olivia.
Olivia had finished work early today, and she was quite surprised to receive a call from Kate. "Why are
you calling me?"
Kate didn''t speak. It was a long time before she took a breath and muttered, "Olivia, I feel terrible."
Olivia''s eyebrows furrowed slightly. "What''s the matter?"
"I bumped into Nathan today when I was being harassed by someone. Just when I had nowhere to go,
Nathan came in and saved me."
Olivia hummed in reply. "Yeah, isn''t that great? Why do you feel terrible?"
Kate didn''t know what to say. "Just to save me, he was hit in the arm with a chair by that man. I think
he''s probably hurt."
"Then why don''t you take him to the hospital?"
Kate said a little spitefully, "But I don''t want to take him to the hospital."
Olivia smiled and said, "What''s wrong with taking someone who got injured while saving you to the
hospital? Isn''t it normal? It doesn''t mean that you''re trying to take things further with him or anything.
It''s justmon courtesy, all right? On the contrary, if you don''t go, it makes you look like you''re scared
of seeing him and that you''re avoiding him on purpose."
With a pout, Kate mumbled, "He has enough people caring for him by his side. Why should I go?"
It dawned on Olivia that Kate said she felt terrible because someone else was there. "Who?"
"The one you saw in the shop."

"Are you talking about Nathan''s colleague?"
Kate said, "Yeah. She kept worrying about Nathan''s wound. One moment, she''d ask if it hurts, and the
next, she''d ask if he wants to go to the hospital. I couldn''t get a word in at all."
Olivia replied, "Nathan said that they were just colleagues."
"How could they just be colleagues when they behaved like that? You didn''t see how eager that woman
was to take care of him."
"Then, Katie, what do you feel? From what I can tell, Nathan has feelings for you now. If you still like
him, try to let go of the past and date him again. But if you really can''t forget the past, then don''t force
yourself and try to find someone else. Don''t torture yourself like that."
"Olivia, I think I may be sick. I''m so conflicted. My heart wants to see him really badly, but my mind is
telling me that a man like him isn''t worth it. Every time I see him, I think of Mnie, and he suddenly
turns into a promiscuous person in my mind. Even when he used to change girlfriends frequently, I''ve
never felt this way. It''s not that I don''t want to abandon the past and start a rtionship with him. We
aren''t together yet, but I''m already worrying about our future. He still can''t resist the temptation of the
women around him. What do you think is wrong with me? Sniffle... I feel terrible."
Hearing this, Olivia was also distressed, and she hurriedlyforted, "Katie, listen to me. You aren''t
sick; it''s just that that incident hit you too hard. How much you care about it proves how much you like
him. I just want to tell you that you can test him for a period of time. I didn''t say that you have to be with
him now. I was reminding you that you have to grasp the time of the test well, and you can''t just ignore
him for too long, or it would be hard to guarantee that he wouldn''t fall for other women instead. By then,
both of you would have to go home empty-handed."
Kate insisted, arguing stubbornly, "He can fall for other women if he wants. Why would I care? Did he
ever take a break from dating all these years? He always moves on after a break up. If his love is that
cheap, I don''t need it."
