Out of the Shadows: Tilda’s Brilliant Second Life
Chapter 650 This Is Your One Chance
Finished
Given Tilda’s current fury, it wouldn’t have been surprising if she’d actually beaten Nathan to death.
Honestly, the guy’s even worse than that clingy, self–important Preston!
At least Preston has some sense of shame. Nathan? He’s the king of shamelessness, hands down!
Tilda couldn’t help but think, Is Jude really the only normal man in the Bells family? Do all the others think every woman owes them affection, playing these ridiculous “push–and–pull” games?
Or do they just get off on being humiliated by me? It somehow excites them, making them feel that I’m more desirable because they can’t have me! Has their life been so easy that they crave impossible challenges just for sport?
“Tilda … what’s wrong with me? Even if you’re not into me now, just give me a chance! You might see a different side of me! You’ll see how good I am, how serious I am about you, how I fell for you at first sight…
“I have stayed pure and never dated anyone. I’ve been waiting for the woman who could make my heart race … and that woman is you! From the moment I saw you, I fell hopelessly in love with you! Why won’t you give me a chance?”
Nathan gritted his teeth, swallowing both pain and the fragments of his pride. His eyes were red as he shouted.
I won’t believe it. I refuse to accept that Tilda feels nothing for me. I’m the eldest grandson of the Bells! I have wealth, power, status! I’m sure I’m not as worthless as she claims. Could I really be that bad?
“Nathan, I’ll make this perfectly clear. I’m not interested in short guys with inflated egos who can’t read the room, don’t listen, and are obsessed with romance. Guys like you are only treasures to other women. To me, you’re not worth a damn!”
She flipped him off and walked away, looking cool and effortless,
This idiot actually thinks that because he has feelings for me, I owe him anything.
And I can tell immediately how much of that so–called “love” is just selfishness in disguise.
If I weren’t the world champion and Dane’s junior, Nathan wouldn’t have been this shamelessly clingy.
It’s ridiculous.
Only Jude … Jude is the only man who’s ever loved me for who I truly am.

Chapter 650 This Is Your One Chance
:
He loves me because of me, not because I’m Dane’s junior, or how much I’ve achieved.
He loves me because I’m the only me in this world. That’s all.
Nathan collapsed, drained and defeated.
The physical pain was nothing compared to the ache in his heart.

Finished
Even though he had been initially attracted to her looks, her world champion title, and the perks of being Dane’s junior, being completely rejected left him with a deep, almost unbearable
sorrow.
He hadn’t just been chasing benefits–he had genuinely been captivated by her effortless grace.
But that infatuation had never stood a chance.
“Nathan, just let it go. Tilda will never see you that way. Women like her … honestly, I don’t think any man is good enough. Let me at least get you to the hospital—your injuries are serious.”
Jarrett tried to lift him but froze when he noticed the tears shimmering in Nathan’s reddened
eyes.
Holy crap… Nathan, who’s always modeled himself after the suave yet cunning Uncle Marcus, is actually crying. He’s really crying.
Jarrett felt like the night had already thrown too much at him. His brain couldn’t process it.
God, I’m exhausted… I just want this to end so I can go home, shower, and sleep.
“Um… Nathan … I’ve never dated, so I don’t know what it feels like to be dumped … but you have to pull yourself together and face life.”
Jarrett forced the words out, trying to comfort him.
“Damn it! I’m not crying! I’m just in pain! I will never cry for any woman again! Never!”
Nathan wiped his tears and sniffled.
