Chapter 164


    Chapter 164 Tipped Off by a Text


    Erin and Saber happened to walk by when Sean opened the bathroom door.


    Looking behind him, Erin saw na in the bathroom. n walked out and said while looking a little


    awkward. “I had something I wanted to ask Sean …*


    Her response instantly made it even more awkward for the other three of them.


    Saber knew very well that na was talking to Sean about Chandler’s business, but as her boyfriend,


    it was inevitable for him to feel a little ufortable when he saw that. He said, “na, I think I forgot


    to bring sunscreen. Help me look for it in my luggage.”


    Saber left upon saying that. naughed and said to Erin, “I’ll be right back. Let’s have a proper chat


    later!”


    Sean and Erin were then left standing in the same ce. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and


    said, “Let’s go and have the creamy spinach soup I made for you early this morning today. You’re a


    pregnantdy, and if your man is not around, you have to take good care of yourself.”

    “You know how to make soup?” Erin asked with a smile.


    Sean raised his eyebrow a little. “What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? I’ve told you I’m


    quite good at cooking. What’s so hard about making soup?”


    Erin looked at his palm. “You can’t get water on your hand, yet you still made soup?”


    Feeling touched, he said, “Silly girl, have you not heard of a thing called gloves?”


    At that moment, Erin’s phone rang. She said, “Go on to the kitchen. I’ll get his call.”


    Sean waved and headed toward the kitchen.


    Erin walked to the pool outside the living room to answer the call. As soon as the call got through, she


    said, “Roman, you’re finally calling me. I texted you, but you didn’t reply.”


    At that moment, Roman was in his study of his vi back in the country. He was holding a shot of vodka


    and was looking a little serious.


    “Roman?” Erin asked.


    Roman down the shot before putting the ss back on the table. He seemed to have made a huge


    decision.


    “Erin, I didn’t reply to your text previously because I’ve been very troubled by something. It’s making


    me feel very conflicted and miserable. I don’t know what to do to not hurt my friend.”


    Feeling confused, Erin asked, “What’s the matter? What happened to your friend?”


    Roman said, “I have a good friend who got pregnant recently, but she and her boyfriend are not


    married yet. Her situation is the same as yours. I just found out her boyfriend is already married, but my


    friend still had no clue. Do you think I should tell her?”


    Erin had not quite connected it to herself yet. She just gave it a thought and asked, “Doesn’t your


    friend’s boyfriend love her? Why did he


    marry another woman?”


    Roman was dazed for a few seconds after hearing that, then he said, “Just take it as he has reasons


    he can’t reveal –


    “Is the man also your friend?”


    Roman said calmly. “Mm–hmm. He’s also my good friend.”


    “That’s going to be tough. Both of them are your good friends, and you said he has his reasons. In any


    case, if I were her, I can’t ept being lied to like this. What is it that he can’t tell her in person and has


    to lie to her about? It’s a matter of principle, and it shouldn’t be concealed. If I were you, I would tell the


    woman the truth,” Erin voiced out what she truly thought.


    “But I still have some concerns. I have no idea how it would affect my friend after I tell her the truth. I’m


    very worried! If you were her, how would you react after learning the truth?” Roman pretended to ask


    very casually, but his other hand had long been clenched into a fist as he was very nervous.


    Erin found this question a little repulsive deep down. Since Roman asked, she would have no choice


    but to imagine if this happened to her.


    If Chandler married another woman behind her back ·


    Just the thought of it made her feel suffocated and her heart pounding irregrly. Erin quickly


    massaged her chest.


    Her breathing sounded a little heavy. Roman had been very focused the whole time, so he immediately


    asked, “Erin, what’s the matter?”


    Erin took a deep breath and said, “I’ve tried to think about your hypothetical question just now, and I


    feel so terrible that I can’t even say a word Roman, don’t ask me. I’ve never encountered such a


    problem before, so I really don’t know how to answer you. I’m sorry. I can’t give you any useful


    suggestions regarding your friend’s situation.”


    “It’s fine. It’s because I’m also at my wit’s end that I asked you about it. I’ll just put this matter aside for


    the time being.” In the end, Roman gave up his decision to tell her the truth.


    He was suddenly terrified that he would not be able to bear the consequences if something happened


    to Erin because she could not take


    it.


    Perhaps it was best for Chandler to tell her himself.


    “Roman, I don’t feel so well. I’m going to hang up for now. Perhaps it’s because I haven’t had breakfast,


    I’m feeling a little dizzy. Let’s talk


    again next time.” Erin nced at the lounge chair not far from her and walked over.


    Roman felt guilty. “I’m sorry, Erin. I’ve made you share my troubles


    “It’s fine. We’re friends. We can talk about anything. I’m going to go now.”


    “Erin!”


    Erin frowned a little while holding her phone. “Mm–hmm. I’m here.”


    With an extremely serious tone, Roman said. “If you want to find a quiet ce to stay one day, you can


    call me anytime. No matter where it


    is, I’ll keep youpany! Promise that you’ll take good care of yourself for the sake of your friends like


    us who love you!”


    His unusual behavior gave Erin a faint sense of foreboding. She kept feeling as if Roman had


    something to say at that moment.


    However, Erin did not ask. She just said, “I will. Thank you for your concern, Roman.”


    After hanging up the call, Erin did not return indoors immediately. Instead, she chose to sit on the


    lounge chair. Looking at the


    iparably beautiful view, she suddenly felt dazed like she was in a fake world.


    It was too quiet and beautiful here. The sea was too clear. It was as if everything was telling her that


    she did not belong here. 1


    Chandler’s perfect face popped into her head for a brief moment and a question appeared without her


    realizing it. What if Chandler also did


    not belong to her?


    It was after she answered Roman’s call that she started to be aware and think about her rtionship


    with Chandler.


    Just when she started to connect that the good friend Roman had mentioned was her, she got a text.


    The person who texted her was Jack.


    Her bodyguard, Jack, had never texted her before. He usually would just call her straight away. Erin’s


    fingers froze for a while before she


    opened the text.


    The content of the text read. “Miss Lane, I have something very important to tell you. I can’t keep lying


    to you anymore. It makes me feel very guilty. Because this has to do with Mr. Frost, I hope you can


    meet me alone.”


    Erin’s mind immediately went nk and her heart suddenly started to pound. She thought of what


    Roman had told her over the phone


    earlier again.


    At that moment, she wanted to call Jack immediately. However, thinking of what Jack said, she still


    texted him instead, “Alright. Where should I meet you?”


    Jack quickly replied, “If it’s alright with you, let’s set sail. This matter is too serious. If Mr. Frost’s friends


    and Hans learn about it, I’ll be in


    big trouble.”


    A little voice in her head told her maybe she should bring another person along with her. However, after


    thinking about it, na and Sean were both Chandler’s friends and Hans was also his man.


    Jack had been with her for some time. No matter if it was his character or his work ethic, he was an


    honest, dutiful and diligent person. He


    had never made any mistakes!


    Erin texted him in reply. “Alright. Where should we meet?”


    Jack was at a restaurant at that moment. A cold gaze appeared in his eyes as he quickly texted, “Let’s


    meet at Number 26, Oceanic


    Restaurant in twenty minutes.”


    Erin agreed, then she returned to the living room to tell Sean that she wanted to get some mangos from


    the fruit stand. It so happened that there were no mangos in the refrigerator anymore, so she could use


    that as an excuse.


    Sean was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. “Alright. Breakfast will be ready when you get back.”


    Erin nodded with a smile and left.


    Never would she have known that three years of her life would be ruined after she left!
