Chapter 155: Brought her to tears
Katelyn couldn’t take a single wink last night after how Karmen rejected her plainly. Even in the morning, she didn’t leave her bed until her mother’s call came.
After taking a bath and changing into a nice dress, she went outside to have her breakfast. But what shocked her was the presence of Amelie and Gabriel. However, another presence bothered her. It was Karmen, who was smiling with them.
"Kate!" Amelie called her name in joy and went to her, holding a bag in her hand.
"Amelie, you returned earlier than I expected," Katelyn remarked, hugging her.
"We were away for five days," Amelie said, pushing the bag to her. "I bought this for you. I hope you like it," she added.
Katelyn accepted it. "Thank you. I am sure it will be good," she said, smiling.
"Why are your eyes swollen? Didn’t you sleep well?" Amelie worriedly asked.
"I slept late. Maybe that’s why," Katelyn replied. Her eyes went back to Karmen, but he wasn’t even looking at her. "You both must be tired. And Amelie, your bump has started showing!" she exclaimed in surprise.
At her remark, both Gabriel and Karmen gazed in their direction.
"Yes, it has," Amelie said.
"We should go and take some rest." Gabriel approached Amelie, his hand moving to her back, holding her close.
