CHAPTER 71

"Aria Flame, now turned, Jade Jordan to be engaged and married to Jake Jordan and no longer, Alexander Chase. My life has indeed taken a turn for the better or is it for the worse?"

She let her eyelids drop, shutting her eyes in the process as her mind went down memory lane to all the memories that would officially become a thing of the past in a couple of hours.

After some time, she reopened them and with a stern look clouded in pain, she reminded herself. "This is the last chance. You cannot allow him to come to the wedding, Jade. You cannot, for your sake and for his sake. Alex is beginning to fall for you again, this time in the wrong body."

It was like she was speaking to her reflection in the mirror, reminding her of the reason why she cannot let things be as they are.

"I guess the cost of my living, did indeed bring about the loss of my love. It isn't fair but then again, life's not fair."
