Chapter 589: Chapter 589

The grand wedding between Alaric Faulkner and Faye Sterling was the talk of the town, with many people knowing about it.

Eleanor Sterling, the woman once entangled with him, naturally became the object of everyone’s sympathy and ridicule.

On this day, she encountered Silas Hawthorne after returning to the dormitory.

He stood there, cool and elegant, in a pure white custom shirt, his taut chest perfectly accentuating his tall frame.

His noble and mysterious demeanor attracted many admiring glances from passersby.

"Eleanor, would you like to go to the café for a while?"

Eleanor Sterling noticed the students passing by all fixating their gaze on them, feeling she couldn’t stay there any longer, "Sure, let’s go."

The café near the medical school.

Silas Hawthorne’s deep eyes fell on Eleanor Sterling, as if he was contemplating his words.

Eleanor Sterling noticed he wanted to comfort her, so she took the initiative to say, "What do you want to tell me?"

"Alaric is going to marry another woman."

Eleanor Sterling let out a light laugh, "Hmm, there should be no one who doesn’t know about this, right?"

Looking at Eleanor Sterling’s charming smile, Silas felt she was forcing a smile, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

The first time he met Eleanor Sterling, she was in disguise, yet he was still amazed by her elegance.

At that time, she left an extremely deep impression on him, and later when Eleanor Sterling regained her looks, he was even more captivated.

Especially after learning that their parents had once arranged a marriage for them, he couldn’t let go, even willing to overlook Eleanor Sterling having a child to have her marry him.

But Eleanor Sterling was with his best friend Alaric Faulkner, and he felt powerless to pursue her.

Now, upon knowing that Alaric Faulkner was about to have a grand wedding with Faye Sterling, he was delighted and immediately sought out Eleanor Sterling.

"Eleanor, since Alaric already has someone else, forget about him and be with me, let’s fulfill our parents’ wishes.

I can take you away from here to live in a new place together."

Eleanor Sterling looked at Silas Hawthorne, a hint of helplessness in her eyes, "The Hawthorne Family’s business is all in Aethelgard, and you’re their only son. Are you sure you can really leave?"

Silas Hawthorne pursed his lips, realizing he was somewhat impulsive.

But given his father’s fondness for Eleanor Sterling, he believed he would agree to transfer the family’s business.

Eleanor Sterling calmly stated, "Silas Hawthorne, you are excellent and outstanding. I have an illegitimate child. If you truly abandon The Hawthorne Family and leave with me, I’m afraid I’ll be scorned to death."

From Eleanor Sterling’s words, it came across as a gentle rejection, leaving Silas Hawthorne somewhat wounded in his eyes.

There are countless ways to refuse someone, and Eleanor Sterling still had a good impression of Silas Hawthorne.

Perhaps because her mother had once hurt Warren Hawthorne, she didn’t want Silas to be hurt, hence her gentle persuasion.

Silas Hawthorne gave a self-deprecating smile, and softly said, "Compared to Alaric, is it that I lost because of time? If I had met you first, would it have been different?" This update is available on novel-fire.net

Eleanor Sterling did not dwell on this hypothetical.

She believed fate was quite mysterious; everything had its destined path, and there was no "what if."

Now she liked Alaric Faulkner, and she still has two children with him, leaving no room for others.

If not for fearing it might disrupt Alaric Faulkner’s plans, Eleanor Sterling would almost have said that she was already formally married to Alaric Faulkner.

Eleanor Sterling comforted, "Alright, I am not that remarkable to be worth your all-out pursuit; you will meet a good girl."

Silas Hawthorne sighed, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

Perhaps he too, like his father, will always have a soft place in the corner of his heart for a woman he cannot forget.
