Meeting The One For Me

Chapter 150

Chapter 150 Nathan stormed out and slammed the door behind him. Carol furrowed her brows in annoyance and grabbed her coat before heading to her room.

Nathan couldn’t get Carol's words out of his head. “I heard Audrey's volce when | was on the phone with Joseph this morning,” she'd said.

He drove with one hand on the wheel.

Some things became clearer in Nathan’s mind.

In high school, during the joint military training, someone confessed to Audrey—and he punched them without hesitation. Audrey took him to the infirmary to tend to his split lip.

Audrey wore two braids in his memory, and sunlight streamed through the window, outlining her delicate features.

She carefully tended to his wound with a cotton swab, gently blowing on it.

Nathan was caught up in the moment and kissed Audrey softly.

The soft and fragrant sensation of her lips jolted him back to reality.

Reeling from the shock of what he’d just done, he hastily grabbed his camouflage uniform and fled the infirmary.

He also remembered how Audrey consistently ranked first in school in every exam while he always hovered near the bottom few. Standing in front of the grade announcement board, Audrey, with her high ponytail, would first search for his name on the list.

She would calmly accept congratulations from others, but upon seeing his improvement, her face would light up instantly. “You’ve made progress this time. Keep up the good work!”

Nathan furrowed his brows and touched his lips. The sensation of Audrey’s lips and his racing heart made it impossible for him to control himself. He could even recall his slight sense of inferiority back then—constantly feeling like he couldn’t match up to Audrey’s brilliance.

She excelled at everything she did; and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up to her. He slammed the brakes and stopped the car on the side of the road. He clutched his chest tightly,

feeling like he was suffocating from the pain.

In his mind, he pictured the day he bumped into Audrey in the elevator.

She was holding a man’s coat and said she was going to pick her husband up. The pain in his chest intensified, making it impossible to breathe.

Nathan clutched his shirt tightly over his chest.

His forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat, his veins bulging at the surface. It was as if Audrey’s countless voices were drilling into his mind, the fresh memory of their conversations resurfacing.

“Audrey, let’s go to the amusement park this weekend!”

“I'll go if you score 90 on the math exam this time!”

“Nathan, do you like me?”

“What's there to like? Your vanity? Your aloofness? Or your skinny body?”

“Then why did you secretly kiss me?”

“Nathan, we’re even now!”

These were Audrey’s playful voices.

“Nathan, we’re even now!” This was Audrey’s hoarse voice.

“I've tried, but it’s too exhausting. Nathan... | don’t want you anymore.” This was Audrey's tearful voice.

Nathan lifted his head, and his eyes were bloodshot.
