When Fate Intervenes (Giselle and Anthony) novel Chapter 13

No matter what he tried, Anthony still couldn't contact Giselle on the third day since she'd left.

Time was ticking. His anxiety was piling up.

Melanie had tried contacting him many times over the past few days, but he kept pushing her away. Finally, when Melanie appeared at his door, she was shocked to see Anthony's disheveled and exhausted state.

Her eyes were filled with worry as she asked, "Tony! What's wrong?"

With things now like this, Anthony felt a surge of mixed emotions within him when he saw Melanie at his door.

He had long converted the romantic love he felt for her to normal, platonic love. However, he never had the chance to tell her that.

But since Giselle had misunderstood his relationship with Melanie and left, Anthony realized that he couldn't drag this on anymore. He had to grab the opportunity to explain everything to Melanie.

"Melanie, I've been trying to contact Giselle lately."

"Giselle? What's wrong with her?"

Seeing the anxious look on Melanie's face only made Anthony feel even more shameful.

"She went missing. I can't find her."

"What? Why would she suddenly go missing? Is it because of her divorce? Does it have anything to do with her ex-husband?"

"Yes, it's because of her divorce, and it's also because of her ex-husband. Well, technically, it's because of me," Anthony said.

Melanie was even more confused.

Anthony saw the confusion on her face and finally mustered enough courage to confess to her.

"I am Giselle's ex-husband. I got married to her three years ago. I'm sorry for keeping it a secret from you, Melanie."

The sudden news hit Melanie's heart like a sledgehammer. She immediately froze on the spot.
