Chapter 145 What If I Tell You That It’s You
Nichs came to a sudden stop, freezing in his tracks. He clenched his fists, desperately trying to hold
back his sadness and despair.
Nancy caught up to him and was about to speak, but Nichs abruptly turned around and looked at
her sharply. He emphasized each word, “I. Don’t. Want. To. Know.” He had no desire to know at all.
Why did I stay just to hear her love story with another man? Am I stupid?
Nancy’s face turned pale as a sheet. Summoning her courage, she wanted to tell him that the man she
was talking about was Nichs himself. However, all she received was rejection. She bit her lip and
forced herself to speak again. “You really don’t want to know? What if I tell you that it’s…” you.

Before she could finish her sentence, Nichs extended his hand and covered her lips. His next words
were ice-cold and heartless. “I told you, I don’t want to hear it.” Almost furious, he roared, “I don’t want
to know who you’re in love with. I don’t want to! Don’t tell me!”
A bitter and forlorn smile appeared on Nancy’s lips. Yes. He doesn’t want to hear about it. He doesn’t
even want to know. Why should I rush to tell him? Nancy, he doesn’t care about you. Why are you
doing this?
This time, she had gathered all her courage to tell him. After this, she wouldn’t have the strength to
speak up anymore. Being humiliated once was enough. She wouldn’t allow herself to be humiliated any
further. “Fine, I won’t say anything,” Nancy said..
Nichs’ eyes darkened, and he let go of her. Thest glimmer of light vanished from Nancy’s eyes.
They were now empty.
“I’ll take you home,” Nichs said.
Nancy smiled bitterly. Home? The moment we got divorced, I lost my home.
They got into the car, but the atmosphere was exceptionally quiet throughout the journey. Only the
sound of music filled the air. No one spoke.
Nichs only broke the silence when they arrived at the house. “We’re here.”
“I see.” She got out of the car. While Nichs parked, Nancy went inside. Without waiting, she went
straight to the second floor and began packing her belongings. She didn’t have many possessions-just
some documents, clothes, and makeup. She sorted through them, so it didn’t take long for her to finish
packing.
When Nichs entered the room, she was halfway done. He paused for a moment, feeling a bitter
pang inside. It was then that he realized he had overlooked something important. They were divorced.
Naturally, they couldn’t continue living together.
She was leaving this ce. She wouldn’t be here anymore.
The thought made him feel suffocated, as if a rope was tightening around his neck. He couldn’t hold
back any longer. He reached out and grabbed her arm. “Stop.”
Nancy turned around, looking at him with confusion.
“You don’t have any family here besides Hugo. You haven’t found a ce or a job. Stay here. You can
move out once you’ve sorted everything out. You must be ustomed to this ce. Stay. I’ll move to
another room. I won’t disturb you.”
Nancy exined, “Thanks, but don’t worry about me. I’ve found a job. Once Evelynes back, I can
start working. Linda has a ce near the hospital. I can move in with her.”
Nichs didn’t expect her to have everything nned already. He paused for a moment before asking,
“You’re going to stay at Linda’s ce? Won’t that be inconvenient?”
“I would be worried if it were someone else, but Linda and I have been friends for over twenty years.
We grew up together. She won’t mind.”
Nichs cleared his throat. “That’s not what I meant. I mean, she’s dating Luke. If you move in with
her, it mightplicate their rtionship.” He was trying to persuade Nancy to stay.
Nancy nodded. “You’re right. It’s just a temporary arrangement. While she’s filming her show, I’ll stay
there for a while and move out once I find a new ce.”
Nichs decided to get straight to the point. “You can still stay here. I don’t mind.”.
Nancy shook her head. “It’s alright. We’re divorced. Living together wouldn’t be good for either of us.
Besides, you’re a special person. I don’t want to be the center of attention, and…”
Nancy paused for a moment before continuing, “We’re both single. If you find a girlfriend someday or if
I find a partner, it’ll be difficult for both of us. Since we’re divorced, we might as well make a clean.
break.”
Only then can I let go of my love. Only then can I bid my final farewell.
“A partner?” She said she’s single. She said she’ll find a partner someday. The thought frustrated
Nichs, and his heart grew heavy once again. Why didn’t I consider that? Once she’s single, with her
brilliance, she’ll have countless suitors. The idea of her having a boyfriend and belonging to someone
else in the future filled Nichs with jealousy.
Unable to contain himself any longer, he asked, “I thought you’ve been in love with that crush of yours
for ten years. Will you find another boyfriend? Or will you go back to him?”
Nancy shook her head calmly. “I won’t go back to him.”
“Why? I thought you’ve been thinking about him all this time. It’s been ten years. Can you really let go?”
“He forgot about me a long time ago. There’s no need for me to seek him out. So what if I’ve loved him
for ten years? When his lover returned for one day, he cared more about her. I should forget about this.
Time is a magical thing. It washes everything away. Someday, I’ll forget about him too,” Nancy said
firmly.
That answer brought a renewed sense of hope to Nichs, and his heart started racing. She said she’ll
forget about him. Does that mean I have a chance?
Nancy closed her suitcase. “I’m finished packing. I have to go now. Take care of yourself.” She pulled
her luggage away.
Nichs held her hand. “It’ste. How are you going to her ce alone?”
“I can take a taxi.”
“At this hour? I can’t let you go alone. I’ll be worried. Stay overnight. I’ll give you a ride tomorrow.”
