Return, My Love: Wooing the Neglected Ex-Wife

Chapter 1127:

Lynda continued her accusation. “Aurora befriended me first. After all these years, she must have known about my feelings for you. She did this intentionally!”

“When Aurora first met you, you were dating Dominic. How could she have known that you had feelings for me? I didn’t even realize it until I got to college.” Dunn took a deep breath, speaking as calmly as he could. “Lynda, we never intended to hurt you. But no matter what, I don’t believe that Aurora and I did anything wrong.”

Lynda quietly disagreed, whispering to herself, “Dunn, how can you treat me like this? You can’t do this to me.”

Dunn remained stoic. “Why shouldn’t I? It’s clear now—I’ve never had those feelings for you. If it weren’t for Aurora, I wouldn’t have been friends with you all this time. Even today, you’re here as her friend, yet you seem to deny the obvious truth about us.”

“People can change. Are you sure you truly love Aurora? Would you feel the same without her family’s influence?”noveldrama

Dunn’s brow furrowed. “If you think love is defined by external factors, then there’s nothing left to discuss. You don’t actually like me; you just admire a man who excels in every way.”

Hearing this, Molly let out a sigh of relief. Lucas gently reassured her, saying, “See? I was sure Dunn wouldn’t…”

His words were cut short as they watched Lynda embrace Dunn suddenly.

Molly and Lucas were too stunned to speak.

Even though Dunn quickly stepped back from Lynda, the impression of inappropriateness lingered.

“I love you, I really do! Please, don’t do this to me. I’ve tried so hard, yet you still won’t even look at me. Why?” Lynda cried.

“That woman has some nerve, trying to sabotage Aurora’s happiness!” Molly’s anger was hard to contain. She couldn’t believe that the wedding was just about to start, and yet someone had the audacity to try and steal Aurora’s man.

“Let’s discuss this with Aurora back at the hotel before we react. She’s Aurora’s friend, after all,” Lucas suggested calmly.

Molly was still seething with anger. As she watched the two by the lake, she couldn’t help but feel that love was a complex web that no one could ever untangle. “Alright, Aurora can handle her.”

Dunn, having regained his composure by the lake, offered Lynda a practical solution. “If this is too much, I can arrange your flight home today.”

Lynda’s tears subsided, and after a moment of silence, she collected herself. “After all, Aurora has been my friend for many years. Despite my feelings, I’ll wish her well at her wedding.”

That evening, as the bachelor and bachelorette parties for Dunn and Aurora unfolded, the mood was light and festive. Yet, Aurora found herself stepping aside with Lynda.

“I’m sorry,” Lynda began with an apology. “It’s your wedding day, the biggest day of your life, and here I am possibly dampening your spirit.”

Grasping her hand, Aurora responded, “No, Lynda, the fault is mine. I was unaware…”

“Let’s leave the past behind us.” Lynda pulled her hand away, her manner distant, leaving Aurora grappling with a whirlwind of emotions. “I’ve chosen this wedding gift for you. Despite everything, my wish is for your happiness.”

“Thank you.” Before Aurora could say more, Lynda excused herself, claiming fatigue and a need to rest early.
