Chapter 763
"Just what does it matter to me with who you're talking to? It's not like I'm somebody to you!"
Nathan held her in place. "Don't do it. Didn't you end things with Jasper?"
Standing in place, Kate looked at him coldly and said, "What does that have to do with you?"
Grinning, Nathan took two steps toward her and took her hand. "Then, give me a chance. Be my girlfriend, Katie."
Kate shook his hand off. "No, I've just gotten out of a relationship."
Nathan's mouth twitched as he said, "What's wrong? Do you need time to forget him?"
"Yes."
Nathan knew she was deliberately provoking him, but he still couldn't help feeling bitter as he said, "Then, why did

Kate looked him straight in the eye. "He made a mistake that I can never forgive."
He instantly felt his heart sink, as he knew that what he did was much worse than what Jasper did. He thought that
she would never forgive him for that.
"Then, will you be able to forgive me for mine?"
"I've already forgiven you."
Upon her words, Nathan smiled in joy. "Really? Th- Then we..."
However, Kate remained stern as she looked at him. "There is no 'we.' I simply wanted to spare myself the pain by
forgiving you."
Confused, he looked at her dumbfoundedly. "Katie?"
Kate looked at him. "I don't want to lose any sleep because of you, and I didn't want to allow you the opportunity to
hurt me. That's all. Seeing that we've been friends for so long, I'll still hope for the best for you in the future."
Having said that, she turned around, wanting to leave.
At a loss, his first reaction was to pull her back. "Katie, I will change. I won't ever hurt you in the future. Believe
me."
Kate shook him off once more. "I've tried believing in you and gave you a chance to prove it. However, others had
easily taken advantage of how many problems there are between us. Of course, this was mostly my fault. I thought
I bore no hard feelings toward you, but that wasn't the truth. This is just too unfair to you, so it's better for us to
stay separated. I will be able to spare myself by doing this."
As he listened to her, anxiety started creeping into him. He then said nervously, "To be honest, I've never known
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwhat it feels like to fall for somebody. All those girlfriends that I had only got together with me because my friends
were already taken at the time. But, I didn't mind it at the time. Just look at how many girlfriends that I've gone
through. It's as though I was changing clothes at that point. That's why, Katie, I..."
He choked for a moment before he continued, "I wasn't doing it for Melanie. It's because I feel lost when you ignore
me that I've done all those irrational things. At the end of the day, I wanted us to be together again. I'd rather you
argue and bicker with me than to ignore me this way. Katie, perhaps I've already fallen for you a long time ago, but
because of how close we were, I never knew what my feelings for you were."
"You know how immature men can be. I've been relying on you for so many years, and because of how well you
took care of me, I couldn't feel the difference whether or not you were around. But now, my heart will beat like a
drum while I spout all those incomprehensible words. Watching you being sad makes me feel as though a knife had
stabbed me right in my heart. I was afraid you would say that you'll abandon me back there. I don't know if I can
call this liking you, but I've never felt like this before."
Nathan's words here seemed to have made a deeper impression on Kate compared to the promises he made to
her.
