Chapter 389 

I answered the incoming video call, and my eyes fell on Queenie’s thin and haggard face. I found it to be a painful sight. 

Since Felix’s surgery, I had been busy drawing and finding time to take care of him. My mood became so depressed that I even lost contact with my close friends. 

Whenever someone called, I was not in the mood to talk much and would hang up quickly. 

I didn’t expect that in just two months of not seeing each other, Queenie would become so thin. The weariness and sadness in her eyes were so heavy that she no longer looked like a woman in her early 20s. 

She looked more like an elderly person who had experienced life’s hardships. 

She had always been a positive and optimistic person. She had a particularly straightforward personality. The only thing that could torment her like this would be love. 

Since college, Queenie and Fylnn had been entangled with each other. They had been. through many ups and downs over the years. 

If someone were to say that there was no bond between them, I wouldn’t believe it. Flynn had once gone to great lengths for Queenie, disregarding everything for her. 

But love sometimes really wasn’t worth much in the face of reality. 

At least among the people I had seen, none had abandoned their families and businesses for love. Matthew had liked me for so many years, but parting ways was still our final outcome. 

Fortunately, I hadn’t fallen in love with him when I discovered our problem and managed to stop it in time. 

As for Queenie, she had poured her heart into loving Flynn for many years. Now that she was heartbroken, it was very painful. 

I nestled back into my bed, put on my earphones, and got prepared to have a good chat with her. In her current state, I was really afraid she might do something irrational. 

“Queenie, why have you become so thin?” 

Tears welled up in her eyes. Her thin face was pale, and her eyes were filled with despair. She looked like she had lost hope. “Lulu, I can’t go on anymore. I want to leave this place.” 

“Calm down and tell me what happened,” I asked anxiously. Seeing her this desperate, tears

started pooling in my eyes too. 

Helen handed me some tissues. I took them and pressed them to my eyes, crying along with Queenie. 

We used to talk about everything, but now that we were separated, we could only stay in touch through the phone. All I could do now was to comfort her and to cry with her. 

“Do you still remember his childhood sweetheart? The one who keeps entangling herself with Flynn. It’s not that I don’t trust him, but the things he did has made me lose my confidence in him. 

“He promised to come over on my birthday, but in the end, he called to say an emergency came up, so he couldn’t make it. He then gave me money to buy a gift for myself. 

“After that, his childhood sweetheart posted a photo and wrote that she was grateful to be able to go to the sea with the person she loves. I could immediately recognize the person in the photo. It was Flynn. 

“When it was his birthday, I went to celebrate with him, but he was partying with his family and friends. He said he didn’t want to make me feel awkward, so I stayed alone in the hotel the whole night. But she posted photos of him holding her hand when he cut the cake and set off fireworks. 

“Every time I asked him, he would say she was just a childhood friend, and there was nothing between them. I believed him each time. 

“But this morning, she came to my company with her mother to scold me, saying that I was shameless and despicable for being the third party. She said that I was pestering Flynn and was just his plaything. They even said that even if Flynn favored me, I’d still have to watch him marry someone else.” 

Queenie cried uncontrollably. 

“What the hell? How could they say such things to you? We witnessed what happened between you and Flynn. You’re clearly in love. What’s wrong with that? I think they’re just narrow–minded people. What about Flynn? What did he say?”
