"Yeah, Tristen, don't you know how much Aubrey loves you? She must be with Jerome just to make you jealous."
"What you did last time was over the line. She had been with you for five years, and not only did you suddenly break up with her, but you also immediately got engaged. Aubrey had even said before that she had been waiting for you to propose."
"She's just a girl. Keep showing up until she feels your love."
Tristen's eyes flickered slightly, and his face softened a bit.
The buddies saw his relaxed expression, exchanged a glance with each other, and silently left the ward.
Tristen tightly clenched his fists, his eyes flickering.
Yes, Aubrey used to lie on his shoulder and fantasize countless times about their wedding and their children.
Aubrey wanted to marry him, and he had always known.
He got engaged with Eliza just because of his lingering obsession.
But when he finally won her heart, all he could think about was Aubrey.
