Chapter 176 – Until You Say Sorry Novel

She saw Niamh getting up and leaving from the corner of her eyes. At the same time, Kendrick turned around.

“Kendrick!” Nevaeh grabbed him frantically. “Kendrick, the ceremony isn’t over yet, don’t…”

Before Nevaeh could finish, Kendrick pushed her hand away.

He frowned and strode in the direction where Niamh left in.

“Kendrick! Where are you going?” Kendrick’s mother was shocked.

“Kendrick! Kendrick!” Nevaeh called out to him frantically. She was about to vomit blood from anger.

“W-What’s going on?”

“Based on Mr. Waldburg’s expression, I guess something serious has happened.”

The guests were all confused.

Those journalists quickly ran over to get some exclusive news.

Niamh deliberately slowed down at this time as she wanted to let Kendrick catch up to her.

She heard the familiar footsteps getting closer to her. Niamh continued walking to the entrance of the hotel.

It was still drizzling.

A gust of wind blew past her and the coldness went straight to her heart.

When she was about to walk into the rain, she felt warmth on her back.

“Vera.” Kendrick placed his coat on Niamh. “I’ll go to the hospital with you.”

Niamh looked into Kendrick’s eyes in delight. “Kendrick, I’m happy that you’re so concerned about me.”

She leaned into his arms with a touched expression on her face. Then, she smirked in secret.

Kendrick carried her bridal-style and walked to the parking lot.

Niamh saw the journalists and Nevaeh running over to them. She lifted her brows and smiled proudly.

‘Nevaeh, you should know clearly who’s the loser here.

‘Your good days will be coming to an end.’

Niamh smiled and leaned against Kendrick’s chest weakly.

His musky scent enveloped her. It was the same smell from her memory, but it was unable to elicit any emotions from her anymore.

…

The viral tweet of Kendrick abandoning Nevaeh at the wedding and leaving with another mysterious woman in his arms quickly made headlines.

Everyone was guessing who this mysterious woman was.

However, some reliable sources exposed that the woman was Vera Quinn.

After a while, Vera’s Twitter page blew up.

Nevaeh bought a bunch of haters to curse and swear at Vera on her profile.

However, after a while, everything about this news could not be found anymore.

After Kendrick asked Ken to remove the trending tweets, he handed a glass of warm water to Niamh.

“Are you sure you don’t want to go to the hospital?” Kendrick asked worriedly.

Niamh smiled and shook her head. “I think it’s because I didn’t want to see you marrying another woman, that’s why I started to feel unwell. I didn’t want to hear you say ‘I do’.”

Looking at those beautiful and lively eyes in front of him, Kendrick’s thoughts started to wander.

He never wanted to say ‘I do’ anyway.

When the master of the ceremony asked him that, he recalled the time he married Niamh. That was why he had smiled and also why his gaze became softer.

When Niamh saw Kendrick deep in thought, she called out to him, “Kendrick, what are you thinking about?”

After she said that, Kendrick’s phone rang.

“I need to take care of some things. I’ll be back soon.” Kendrick said after looking at the caller ID.

“Go ahead.”

Kendrick nodded, and when he was about to close the door behind him, he lifted his gaze to look at the woman who was leaning against the headboard of the bed. There was a thought-provoking look in his eyes.

Niamh got out of bed when she heard the engine of the car.

She did not expect Kendrick to bring her back to his place.

However, she was glad. Kendrick abandoned Nevaeh and carried her away with so much concern. This was better than she expected.

Niamh was smiling even wider now.

Nevaeh had to be livid right now. Her face had to be contorted into such an ugly look at this moment.

…

Kendrick arrived at Waldburg Manor where everyone was looking at him with criticizing looks. On the other side, Nevaeh was crying so much that her eyes were red. She was also gasping for air.

“Kendrick, you’re too much! You abandoned Nevaeh at the wedding and carried that Vera Quinn away. How is Nevaeh going to live now? How will those tabloids write about this?” Eloise questioned him with a horrible expression on her face.

“Kendrick, you went overboard! Go and comfort Nevaeh now.” His mother reminded him.

“Mom, Mrs. Waldburg, please stop blaming Kendrick. It’s not his fault.” Nevaeh sobbed while saying, “Kendrick, I’ll be fine as long as you’re happy.”

“Did you hear that, Kendrick? My daughter is so kind to you but how do you treat her? You’re not worthy of Nevaeh!” Eloise was furious.

“If I’m not worthy, then I shall leave,” Kendrick said straightforwardly and coldly. Everyone at the scene was beyond shocked.

“Kendrick, w-what do you mean?” Eloise asked.

Kendrick looked at Nevaeh and was startled. “I already gave you a wedding and I did what I promised. Don’t let me see any comments attacking Vera online. This thing between you and me ends now.”

“…” Nevaeh’s eyes were wide. She could not believe the person who was talking to her so coldly right now was Kendrick.

“I don’t have anything to tell or explain to you people. Stop harassing me.” After he said that, Kendrick turned around and left.

After spacing out for a few seconds, Nevaeh ran out quickly.

“Kendrick! Kendrick! Don’t go!”

She ran in front of Kendrick and was sobbing heavily.

“Kendrick, don’t do this to me. Don’t…”

Kendrick had no emotion in his eyes as he looked at the woman who was crying heavily in front of him.

If this was before, he would have been heartbroken.

No.

That was not it.

He had only thought he was heartbroken.

When Niamh was gasping for her last breath in his arms, the feeling he had then felt like a million ants gnawing on his heart.

“Kendrick, you know that what I want isn’t a wedding. I want to be with you forever! Don’t leave me, okay? I can’t lose you! I really can’t be without you!”

Nevaeh cried and held onto Kendrick.

“Don’t make me do things that I hate.” Kendrick indifferently pushed Nevaeh, who was clinging to him, away. Then, he walked off.

Nevaeh looked at the man who was walking away and gritted her teeth. Her eyes were red as she braced herself. “Kendrick, do you really want to cut all ties with me?” Her tone sounded eerie.

“It sounds like you’re threatening me.”

“Kendrick, why would I threaten you?” Nevaeh chuckled in self-mockery. “I just want to remind you that Niamh’s ashes are still with me. If you don’t want me anymore, then I’ll die with Niamh’s ashes!”

After she said that, Nevaeh was surprised to see an indifferent smile on Kendrick’s face.

“If you like to hide those ashes so much, then you can keep them. Stop harassing Vera. This is my last advice to you.”

What?

Nevaeh’s jaw dropped open.

Did he not care about Niamh’s ashes anymore?

He could go as far as to not want Niamh’s ashes anymore all because of Vera?

H-How was that possible?
