Chapter 227

Chapter 227 Eliminate That Punk Earlier Yelena was inwardly gleeful. Delia keeps nagging me every day. Finally, there’s someone else to help me share the burden. Hehe!

Ninette released Emrys. Then, she turned to Mason triumphantly and said, “Now you believe me, don’t you?”

“Ninette, there was really no need for you to go to such lengths!”

Mason shook his head.

Naturally, he could tell that Ninette was deliberately provoking him, and the lunatic who claimed to be Empyrean Lord beside her was nothing more than a pawn.

Even so, his eyes glinted coldly when he saw the two of them k*ssing.

However, he had masked it then.

“I know you’re still blaming me for that incident. The truth is, my relationship with Kourtney was a misunderstanding.”

Kourtney Guzman was Ninette’s best friend who stole Mason away back then.

Mason continued, “At that time, I was pursuing you but didn’t receive any reciprocation from you. It was Kourtney who told me that you had no interest in me at all. That was why I chose to give up. I only learned the truth later when I broke up with her.”

“A misunderstanding. Haha.” A pang of pain struck Ninette’s heart. On the heels of that, she sneered, “So, just because of such a misunderstanding, you got together with my best friend in the next second.

Do you think that’s something normal?”

“Back then, I thought you genuinely had no interest in me and that persisting would be futile. Besides, Kourtney was there to comfort me every day… But I’ve come to my senses now. Missing out on you is the biggest regret in my life. That’s why I sought you out today, Ninette. It’s because I hope to make up for this regret. Please give me another chance.”

Mason looked at Ninette in anticipation.

Ninette fell silent.

As it turned out, everything back then was orchestrated by Kourtney. But could what has already been missed truly be revisited?

She remained silent for a long while before finally taking a deep breath and saying, “Thank you for telling me the truth, but everything is already in the past. We should be looking forward, not dwelling on the past, no?”

In everyone’s youth, there were more or less some regrets. It was those regrets that gave youth its nostalgic value.

What had passed, been missed, and overlooked should be deeply buried in one’s heart for 22.0 Fri, 26 Jan Chapter 227 Eliminate That Punk Earlier reminiscence. Forcefully making up for them would only ruin the beauty, leaving them fragmented and shattered in the end.

Ninette had already found peace, Mason, however, was unwilling to accept it. “Ninette, actually, we can start over-

“You needn’t say anymore. Doing so will only worsen my memories of youth and tarnish my impression of you further.”

Before Mason had finished speaking, Ninette stood up and dragged Emrys away.

Sitting a near distance away and eavesdropping, Yelena let out a sigh.

Nina has indeed grown up. This was the most appropriate way to handle things, not avoiding or clinging to the past but sitting together and laying everything out in the open before letting it go with the wind. That’s maturity. I hope that this Mason fellow would have some sense. Otherwise… Hmph! I am a cultivator now.

Yelena glanced at Mason, then rose to her feet and followed Emrys and Ninette out of the café.

A short while later, the middle–aged man walked in.

Mason’s eyes glint coldly, and he said, “Mr. Gallegos, help me eliminate that punk carlier.”

Ninette had already let go, but Mason was unwilling to give up, especially after seeing her again that day. She was still as beautiful and captivating as ever. It was as if he had returned to his university days, to when he first met her.

It had truly been a long time he had experienced the feeling of his heart skipping a beat.

Therefore, regardless of whether Emrys was a pawn, he wanted the man to pay the price for k*ssing Ninette.

He didn’t want to leave any potential problems for himself.

Upon hearing Mason’s words, the middle–aged man, Damarion Gallegos, frowned and said, “Mr.

Cooper, don’t forget the purpose of our visit to Jadeborough.”

“Of course, I remember it. It’s to invite Dr. Lund to treat my grandfather. As long as we can afford to pay, we don’t need to worry about him turning us down.”
