My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day
Chapter 46

Chapter 46 

During this period of time, getting along with Zac made her feel much more relaxed than before.

If Zac wanted to continue this marriage for some indescribable reason, Anika did not seem to want torefuse.

He said that what happened to her hurt a lot of people, so Anika was also willing to learn to accept thehelp he was offering.

If one day he wanted to take it back, she would return the help to him in other ways.

However, there was no need to talk to Lucy about this.

Lucy obviously did not expect Anika to accept Zac's help so calmly.

She didn't like Anika, but she also admitted that she had some understanding of Anika.

In her head, Anika was always arrogant.

Hearing her words that she relied on men, she would surely have reacted like this.

Seeing Anika push her away and leave, Lucy stops her again and says, "Wait."

Anika frowned and turned around.

She saw that the other party took out a box, opened it, and handed it to her.

"This jade Buddha, I'll return it to you."

There was a translucent jade buddha on the dark red jewelry box made of velvet.

With a single glance, Anika recognized that this was the piece that Kayden gave her in high school.

At that time, she had lost the Principal's jade Buddha, and because of the several gatherings afterreturning to the Meyer family, she felt inferior and hid in the attic to digest her emotions.

In order to appease her, Kayden went to the mall to buy a similar jade Buddha.

Anika could tell, but she didn't say anything.

After all, the other party also had good intentions.

However, before she went abroad, this jade buddha had disappeared.

It seemed that Lucy had secretly taken it away.

However, what Anika cared about was never the jade Buddha that Kayden had bought from the mall.

"I don't need it anymore.’’ The jade Buddha that the dean gave her was originally hers.

Kayden helped her retrieve it.

She was grateful and responded to this thought.

As for the piece that Kayden bought from the mall, she had already broken up with Kayden, so it wasimpossible for her to accept it anymore.

"I was the one who stole the jade Buddha.I can apologize to you for this.But ...are you sure you don'twant it?"

The reason why Lucy came to return the jade Buddha was because she didn't want to keep it, whichwould make Kayden feel even more disappointed in her.

For the sake of Anika, even Gavyn started to lose Kayden.

Harold took Gavyn's fiancée, causing Gavyn to lose face.

However, when Kayden saw that his brother had suffered such a great embarrassment, he didn't havea single word of sympathy.

Lucy knew that Kayden had already understood that Gavyn had set him up to escape.

He didn't want to doubt the people around him, but once he discovered that he had betrayed them, hewouldn't give them any more trust.

Anika shook her head, "Of course I don't.Since you like it, I'll trouble you to keep this jade Buddha."

She only hoped that she would no longer have to deal with Lucy, Kayden and the others.

After the old man finished talking with Mr.Thomson, he looked a little bit tired.

Anika did not want to disturb her grandfather's rest, nor did she want to stay and have a friendly ‘act’with the Cooper family.

Then, she bid farewell with Zac and left the old mansion.

On the way back, she looked at Zac, who was sitting leisurely beside her.

She was confused for a moment, but she couldn't help but ask.

"Did you do it, as what Shawn have said?"

For some reason, when she heard Lucy mention this matter, Anika was stunned, but she was notsurprised.

There was only a strange contradiction in her heart.

Hearing this, Zac turned his head to look at her and lightly nodded, "Yes."

Seeing her open her mouth, he smiled and said, "Nika, you don't have to thank me.I did it because Iwanted to."

What Shawn did made him particularly uncomfortable, and he deserved to be sent to prison for doingsomething wrong.

Even if it had something to do with her, it was his own pleasure and he didn't want her to thank him.

"Then ...I'll make you a chocolate cake tomorrow."

Anika withdrew her gratitude from her mouth.

Zac replied with a gentle grin.

She could remember his appetite for food, and of course he was happier than thanking him politely.

After a pause, he rolled his eyes and looked at her with his chin propped up, "So can you tell me howShawn offended you?"

Anika's expression paused.

After pondering for a moment, she slowly said, "Actually, it's nothing.At that time, the Cooper familyurged him to be courteous to me.When he went back to my room to hide something, he was stabbedby me with a knife.Afterwards, he was afraid of me and stopped pestering me."

Zac watched as she told everything in a calm manner, and his gaze was filled with deep inquiry.

"Oh? What did he hide?"

Anika pursed her lips and said, "Camera.The car fell silent.After a long time, Zac suppressed hisenduring emotions.

He slowly reached out and touched her head, "Well, it’s all over.Nika, you've always been brave."

‘Brave?’ Anika was speechless for a moment, but she inexplicably thought of the first time she met Zac.

At that time, it was midsummer and the weather at Misty Bridge was sultry.

On the first day of the second year of high school, she finished the transfer formalities at the dean'soffice and did not need to report to class that day.

However, when she left school, Anika happened to run into Alena, who was being stopped by Demiand the others.

Her footsteps paused slightly.

Even though she had made up her mind to keep a low profile, she could not turn a blind eye to it.

Anika turned around and quietly left.

A few minutes later, she led a teacher over by asking for directions and successfully helped her out.

As for Alena, she obediently followed the teacher back to the classroom.

After doing all this, Anika was about to leave when she saw a someone wearing a school uniform.

Zac sat leisurely on the wall, his eyebrows and eyes flickering as he looked down at hercondescendingly.

The teen said softly, "This classmate, you are ...very fearless and brave."

‘‘I don't know if it's a compliment or a mockery.In an instant, Anika understood.The student leaningagainst the wall planned to skip class.Coincidentally, the instructor who escorted Alena back to classwalked back to get Anika at the right time to replace out about the situation …”

With such embarrassment, he caught Zac.

Because of this, they accepted the challenge.

Retracting her thoughts, Anika smiled and looked at him, agreeing to the praise of her ‘courage ’.

The phone suddenly rang.

Anika took out her phone and looked at the caller ID.

It was the old house's phone.

After connecting, Boris’ voice was anxious.

"Young miss, this is bad.The old man scolded Mr.Cooper and fainted from anger.Mr.Thomson has sentyour grandfather to the hospital!"

With her grandfather being sent to the hospital at this time was obviously no small matter.

That was why Boris was so nervous.

As soon as he finished speaking, Anika's face turned deathly pale, her heart surged with unease.

It was as if she had a bad premonition, and her hand that was holding the phone trembled faintly.

She gritted her teeth and felt a dazed panic.

"Anika, look at me!"

The man's deep voice rang in her ears, barely evoking Anika's thoughts.

Zac looked at her face and held her hand.

He sighed and said softly, "Nika, don't be afraid.Let's go to the hospital now, eh?"

Facing his calm gaze, Anika heaved a sigh of relief and gently nodded her head.

Their fingers intertwined, and the warmness from his palm also calmed down her panicked state ofmind.

‘‘Grandpa is in the hospital.I have to be tough.”
