Rewriting My Heart's Fate (Ethan and Evelyn) novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 

It was Ethan. He handed over his registration form. “I hope I’m not too late.” 

The upperclass woman froze when she saw Ethan. She stood rooted to the spot, forgetting to withdraw her hand. 

I akwardly withdrew my hand, snapping her back to reality. The club president pressed her lips together, accepted his registration form, and nodded enthusiastically. “Not at all. Welcome to the club! What a coincidence, Wiley! You two practically walked in together! The upperclasswoman’s eyes kept shifting between us, and the way she looked at me made me feel uncomfortable 

Dann it, what was he doing here? I distinctly remembered he was into basketball–why didn’t be join the basketball club? 

Plus, he could’ve just tagged along with Leah and joined any other club. Why the event planning club, of all things? 

Was this what people called destiny, something I couldn’t escape or avoid at any cost? But I refused to believe that everything was written in the stars. While I couldn’t change my destiny, I could certainly change my fortune. 

“Alright, everyone, gather around! We have a back–to–school event that needs planning, and we need all hands on deck!” The club president led us to the activity room, where we all took our seats. 

University had a much more relaxed atmosphere than high school. Everyone just sat wherever. I deliberately chose a seat in the corner, but to my surprise, Ethan sat right beside me. When I shifted further into the comer, be closed the distance between us again. 

Last night’s dream kept replaying in my head. He had mercilessly left me behind, and his deep eyes were devoid of any warmth. 

Marriage was often portrayed as a gilded cage. For me, it was an invisible shackle, an impenetrable prison. That dreadful marriage of mine turned my world upside down. It robbed me of my confidence, my joy, and my belief in the future. 

Everything stemmed from his heartlessness and indifference. He came to loathe me and didn’t hesitate to hurt me over and over for another woman 

“It’s the start of a new semester, and we’re kicking off with a bang! I want everyone to be proactive and share any good ideas you have.” 

The club president was very enthusiastic, and everyone was eager to share their thoughts. 

The back–to–school event served as a prelude to St. Nicholas University’s welcome ceremony. This event not only gave the students to experience the vibrant atmosphere of the university but also helped them settle in more quickly. 

“That said, we only have two sponsors at the moment, so let’s think about how we should plan the event.” 

The best part about organizing events at university was that we could have sponsorships. I remained silent, hiding in the corner. 

“I think we could organize a picnic or a bonfire” 

While everyone else shared their ideas, I listened quietly until the discussion was almost over 

Then, the club president clapped her hands and made a decision. “Now that we’ve settled on the event, it’s time for everyone 

se to break into groups and get to work!”
