My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1663

Wendy really wanted to ask Aiken why he hadn't told her he had fallen for someone else, but she knew it wasn't in her nature to question him like that. Besides, their relationship now…

Her friends all knew she was Aiken's girlfriend, but others didn't understand the situation. In Aiken's mind, she was probably just an afterthought, especially over the past six months, when their bond had slowly unraveled.

She wasn't even sure when it had started, but they used to see each other several times a week. Then, three months ago, on Simona's birthday, they both got drunk and ended up sleeping together.

Aiken hadn't reached out to her since.

It was just that one time, and they hadn't used protection. Afterward, Wendy had been too busy and had forgotten to get the morning-after pill.

"Why didn't you finish drying your hair?" Aiken stood up and walked toward her. Wendy took a step back.

With each step Aiken took, her mind wandered back to Zera's words. She couldn't shake the thought that maybe, during their moments of intimacy, Aiken had grown disgusted with her. Perhaps, all this time, he had only ever pitied her.

She laughed bitterly at herself before looking at Aiken and saying, "I didn't have the patience to finish drying it. Did you need something?"

She stared at him, trying to read his intentions. Suddenly, she found herself wondering if he had come here to declare that they were over. He must have doted on Zera and didn't want to hurt her.

Aiken sensed Wendy's cool demeanor and frowned. "Is it my fault that we haven't seen each other lately?"

"No, I know you've been busy." Wendy turned and walked toward the bedroom.

She didn't know how to face him anymore. She knew their relationship was over and couldn't go back to what it had been. Still, she couldn't help but hope that Aiken would tell her he had no relationship with Zera, that he still loved her, and that he wanted to marry her.

But as Aiken stepped into the bedroom ahead of her and wrapped his arms around her, her body stiffened instantly.

Her tone turned rigid as well. "I'm on my period, and I'm tired. I'd like to sleep alone tonight."

The message was clear—she wasn't holding onto him anymore.
