Ch. Chapter 3 My fiance called me by the wrong name at the wedding Chapter 3

Chapter 3 A New Beginning 

The sea breeze lightly brushed my ankles, bringing a refreshing chill. 

However, the heat radiating from the man behind me was so intense it seemed like it might melt me. 

Though Frederic was on friendly terms with Kendrick, he was known in our circle as a man of few words and a cold demeanor. 

Whenever I’d run into him in the past, he’d merely nod politely, his eyes showing no sign of favoritism. It was clear he never thought of me in any special way. 

I never expected that, now, he would… 

“Don’t space out,” he whispered, his breath warm against my ear as he leaned in closer.

He controlling the jet ski, standing behind me, our bodies pressed tightly together. 

The heat from his back seemed to flow through me like an electric current, making my cheeks flush hotter and hotter. 

“Relax, focus on the ripples in the water,” he continued. 

“Don’t worry about falling. We’re both wearing life vests. 

“I won’t let anything happen to you…”

I felt exhausted, both sleepy and drained. 

The phone by my side kept buzzing. 

He grabbed it, muting it. “I muted it.” 

I nodded and, after telling him the password, tilted my head to fall asleep. 

Frederic’s eyes shifted to the phone, where a new message popped 

1. up. 

[I was just messing around with Cecelia! You’re the one who announced the wedding cancellation so publicly and embarrassed me. You’ve made your point; now get back here!] 

Frederic read the message impassively, then swiftly deleted it with a flick of his finger.
