Zoey’s beautiful eyes narrowed ever so slightly. She felt as though her heart was crushed into pieces.
That was the first time in the years she had known Tobias where he introduced a woman as his girlfriend.
He had never even publicly acknowledged his relationship with Tanya and had always remained aloof about it.
When Tanya Hanson bullied her, Tobias did his best to defend her and outrightly sided with her.
The memory of Tanya fuming was still fresh in Zoey’s mind.
Laura walked over to serve them drinks. She first poured some for Tobias, then Zoey. When she. reached Skylar, she asked, “Is this alright for you?”
Skylar frowned. “Yes, this is fine.”
Zoey took a seat on the couch as sorrow began to engulf her. Disappointment was an emotion she was familiar with when it came to Tobias.
When she first heard of Tobias’s engagement, she was broken-hearted.
She was unable to accept the fact that the man she had pined for all these years was going to marry someone else. Despite the fact that their relationship remained stagnant for years because Tobias only regarded her as a sister, she still hoped for more.
No matter how hard she tried to fight for his love, nothing could alter the reality. All she could do was head to Italy to heal her wounds. When she caught wind that his engagement was called off, she was over the moon and immediately bought tickets to return home.
All these years, she had been unwilling to give up. To her, as long as she put in the effort, sparks were bound to fly between the two of them. She even made a wild guess that the abrupt cancelation of the engagement was because of her.
Alas, she was proven wrong. Tobias had abandoned his fiancée for a new conquest.
