My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively-Chapter 139: Something’s Definitely Wrong!
Summer Shawcross reached out and took the box, then opened it. Inside lay a perfectly preserved violin.
On the body of the violin, her name was engraved...
Summer stretched out her hand, gently caressing the violin, and her eyes grew a bit red.
After a moment, she sniffed, closed the box again, and hugged it to her chest.
"I thought you would have destroyed it by now." She looked up, a little surprised, at Wendy Linden.
They had been at odds since childhood, opposing each other in everything. So she had thought the violin would have been destroyed, not expecting Wendy had preserved it so well.
Being asked like this, Wendy awkwardly rolled her eyes at Summer, then turned her head and said.
"Even though I dislike you, there’s no need to ruin things."
Summer smiled and couldn’t help but say thank you.
"Thank you."
Her sudden thanks made Wendy furrow her brow, suddenly feeling a bit uncomfortable.
She didn’t expect that after a few years apart, the once proud and stubborn rival had become gentle and polite.
After a few seconds, Wendy scoffed dismissively.
"Thank me for what? I didn’t preserve it for you!"
Listening to her, Summer just shrugged without saying anything further.
"Even though your violin playing tonight was okay, I don’t accept the result. You were clearly cheating!" Wendy looked at her discontentedly, accusing.
"How was I cheating?" Summer felt speechless. She didn’t even complain about the unfair rules, yet Wendy was accusing her of cheating?
"Don’t think I can’t tell, you’re definitely involved with Noah Drexler!" Wendy glared at her angrily, her face full of unwillingness. Why else would he be willing to spend so much money on her!
"..." Faced with Wendy’s words, Summer was suddenly at a loss for words.
She hadn’t said there was no relationship between her and Noah Drexler; she just stated that in her current role, they were merely superior and subordinate.
Seeing her silence, Wendy’s expression grew more displeased, and she started to accuse her more.
"I’ve never beaten you since we were little, losing every musical competition. And now even the man I like has been taken by you! Summer Shawcross, tell me, did I burn your house down in a past life?"
Saying this, an expression of grievance appeared on Wendy’s face.
Next to her, Summer looked on and unexpectedly felt a bit of sympathy for her.
In the past, she just found Wendy annoying, always competing for attention. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
But now, after going through so many things, she felt Wendy wasn’t that detestable, especially compared to the hypocrisy of Melanie Trueman and Dustin Hughes. Wendy was just a bit bothersome and hadn’t tried to harm her.
"Next time, I will bet with you again, and I will definitely win!" Wendy said, unwilling to concede.
Hearing her words, Summer paused.
She probably would never have the chance to see Wendy again. Thinking about the tragic fate Wendy was about to face made her heart heavy.
Because Wendy’s experience was somewhat similar to her past life, also being ruined by the people closest to her. Perhaps because of this, thinking of Wendy’s eventual fate resonated with her.
