First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Broken Engagement

The wind outside the juvenile correctional facility was cold and biting.

Even though Serena Jennings was tightly embraced by Justin Nash, she still didn’t feel warm.

Not only did she not feel warm, but her fingertips were growing colder and colder.

Justin Nash waited for a long time without hearing a response from Serena Jennings, feeling anxious, he continued, "Serena, choose me, and I won’t marry Cynthia Fulton. The two of us will be together, leave City A, anywhere is fine..."

"Don’t you think it’s incredibly irresponsible to Cynthia Fulton?"

The words from Serena Jennings were not harsh, yet her voice was like a bucket of cold water, chilling Justin Nash to the core.

"Whether you love Cynthia Fulton or not, you’ve already agreed to marry her, and you’ve sent wedding invitations to family and friends. Now you’re calling off the wedding at this critical moment? What kind of position does that put her in?"

Serena Jennings pushed Justin Nash away.

"I..."

Facing Serena Jennings’ questioning, Justin Nash found himself without words.

He only knew he didn’t like Cynthia Fulton, hadn’t liked her from the beginning.

He was just complying with his family’s and the company’s arrangements out of obligation.

Justin Nash didn’t think he was too unfair to Cynthia Fulton.

Because he didn’t believe Cynthia Fulton loved him either.

Cynthia Fulton was a wealthy heiress, marrying him also for her family and company.

More than love, Cynthia Fulton wanted to conquer him, control him, possess him.

"Serena, love is inherently selfish..."

"But I don’t love you."

These words, Serena Jennings said decisively.

Justin Nash’s face changed, his chest hurt instantly as if stabbed by a knife.

"Why? What’s so bad about me? How am I worse than Caleb Lockwood?!"

Gripped by Justin Nash on the shoulders, Serena Jennings felt pain and squeezed her eyes shut.

"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it..."

Justin Nash let go, apologizing repeatedly.

Serena Jennings felt a little tired.

She originally thought she and Justin Nash could become really good friends.

But the more Justin Nash behaved like that to her, the more impossible it was for them to be friends.

"Take me back, and don’t forget to give the wedding jewelry to Cynthia Fulton."

Serena Jennings’ overly cold demeanor twisted Justin Nash’s facial features involuntarily.

His dry lips parted several times, yet Justin Nash found himself at a loss for words to persuade Serena Jennings to stay.

Ultimately, he couldn’t seize this last opportunity before the marriage.

Eventually, Justin Nash took Serena Jennings back to Newcross Real Estate.

Serena Jennings got out of his car and into hers.

The white BMW 3 Series gradually receded from his sight.

Justin Nash opened the gift bag and took out the jewelry box.

The jewelry set inside was a diamond waterfall style, luxurious enough to match Cynthia Fulton’s tastes.

Initially, Justin Nash felt that such diamond-encrusted designs were tacky, but Serena Jennings’ design inexplicably gave him a sense of sophistication.

However, this set of jewelry that Serena Jennings put her heart into designing was to be worn by Cynthia Fulton.

Justin Nash almost tugged at the necklace to break it.

In the end, he still put the necklace back and handed it to Cynthia Fulton.

The Lockwood Group.

Caleb Lockwood smelled the scent of traditional medicine, and looked up to see Mr. Miller handing him the medicine.

"President Lockwood, you’re having stomach problems again, you should take some medicine!"

Caleb Lockwood took the medicine, drank a mouthful, and his crow-like eyelashes lifted up.

"Did you brew this medicine?"

Caleb Lockwood asked.

"I did,"

Mr. Miller answered.

Caleb Lockwood frowned, drank another mouthful of the herbal medicine, and asked again:

"Mr. Miller... do you want to leave this job?"
