Chapter 133 – Until You Say Sorry Novel

After a while, his limited edition sports car stopped in front of an old apartment.

Kendrick went upstairs and into a unit.

This was Niamh’s house before she passed. He had bought it for double the price.

Three years had passed and all traces of her were now gone.

However, as if it was an unhealthy obsession, he was still reluctant to leave this place. He kept everything here intact. Whenever he missed Niamh, he would either go to the cemetery and talk to himself in front of the tombstone, or he would come here—even though he knew that everything he did was futile.

It was too late.

Looking at the empty house, he remembered that this was where he first saw Niamh with the scars on her face.

It was also here where she collapsed onto the floor and desperately pleaded with him. However, he had mocked her for playing the victim to make him pity her. Then, he even threw all of her painkillers into the toilet before ripping apart the gauze that was covering the wound on her face.

‘Niamh, it must have hurt a lot, right?

‘I, Kendrick Waldburg, was so cruel to you.’

He chuckled in self-mockery. Then, he read Niamh’s diary again.

He could only find the evidence of Niamh’s love for him between the lines of her handwriting. It was only in this way could he find some sense of comfort even if it was temporary or fake.

Kendrick stayed here for the entire day and even spent the night here. He ignored all of the calls he received during this period.

When he was about to leave, he received a call from Waldburg Manor.

He thought the old master needed to tell him something. When he answered the call, he heard his mother berating him furiously, “Kendrick, why didn’t you answer your phone for the entire day? Why are you ignoring Nevaeh when such a huge thing has happened to her?”

When he heard Nevaeh’s name, he frowned in frustration. He scoffed before saying, “A huge thing?”

“Of course, it’s huge! A woman’s face is so important!” his mother said without even taking the time to think.

Kendrick chuckled coldly. He did not want to say anything more. When he was about to hang up, his mother said weirdly, “Kendrick, I don’t care where you are right now. You have to come back to the manor. We have an ‘important guest’ here.”

Important guest?

It was obvious that his mother was being sarcastic when she said that.

He asked her who it was, and after hearing her answer, Kendrick raised his brows before rushing back to the manor.

On the way back to the manor, what Kendrick’s mother said to him through the phone earlier was still replaying in his head.

Unbeknownst to him, he started to speed up his car and after more than ten minutes, he drove into the manor’s garage.

After he got out of the car, he walked straight to the living room. When he was at the door, he saw the face of his dreams. That stunning and alluring face was in his field of vision.

Kendrick stopped in his tracks as his heartbeat sped up.

Niamh lifted her head and saw Kendrick. She smiled bashfully at him, her eyes looking so lively that it was like they were able to speak to him. There were so many emotions in them.

“I thought Felipe was here, but it’s just you, Mr. Waldburg.” Niamh smiled softly.

Kendrick’s speeding heart went back to its normal pace at that instant. He narrowed his eyes while maintaining a smile on his lips. “Are you waiting for Felipe?”

“Felipe and I planned to come here together, but he had something to take care of suddenly, so that’s why I’m here first.” Niamh explained calmly. “It’s good that you’re here, Mr. Waldburg. Felipe and I won’t have to inform you again.”

“Inform me about what?” Kendrick walked over to Niamh and stared into her eyes.

Her eyes looked into his deep ones confidently. “About our marriage.”

Her voice was soft as it drifted into Kendrick’s ear and landed on his heart. He felt that her words were extremely heavy for no reason. It was weighing on him so much that he felt it was difficult for him to breathe at this moment.

“You’ll give us your blessings, right, Mr. Waldburg? He’s your uncle, after all.” Niamh grinned and looked at Kendrick’s face that had turned cold all of a sudden.

“Are you sure you’ll be happy marrying a man you don’t love?”

Niamh was shocked when she heard Kendrick saying that all of a sudden. However, she smiled calmly.

“Do you think that I’ll be happy if I marry someone I love deeply, Mr. Waldburg?” she asked him. She spotted the sense of loss in Kendrick’s eyes and the smile on her face got even wider. “Based on my understanding, your ex-wife Niamh was so madly in love with you, but what did she get in return? She loved the wrong person. Not only did she not get an ounce of your love, she even lost her life.

“The saddest thing was that you guys were ecstatic when she died. You guys think that it’s better now that she’s dead.”

Niamh enunciated each and every word clearly. She noticed a hint of worry in Kendrick’s eyes, then she chuckled sarcastically.

“If that’s the case, do you still think marrying someone I love will bring me happiness, Mr. Waldburg?”

When Kendrick heard Niamh’s question, he looked at her for a moment before parting his lips slightly. However, he could not say one single word.

He just felt that this face was making him feel perturbed. He was having difficulty breathing now.

He recalled Niamh gasping for air while looking like she was about to break the moment before her death. Suddenly, he found that the question he had asked earlier was oddly pathetic.

Not happy.

She was not happy at all.

The biggest misfortune in her life was meeting him and falling in love with him.

“If it’s so painful to love someone, then I’d rather be loved instead.”

Niamh’s voice lingered in Kendrick’s ear.

He looked at her while feeling dispirited. He felt as if his heart had been stabbed with a knife. There was no blood, but the invisible pain was spreading across his heart.
