Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan)

Chapter 2249

Marina stared at him in shock, "You and Cindy broke up?"

"Yeah, ages ago. She kept nagging about marriage, and that's when I realized she was only in it for my money and family background!" Freddy said with a tinge of regret, "Truth be told, I've regretted letting you go from the moment we parted ways. I just couldn't swallow my pride to come find you."

He took a step closer, "Marina, I never really liked Cindy. You're the one I've always wanted."

Marina looked at him without saying a word, her expression not as resistant as before.

Across the lawn, Carson and Andrew, along with others, laughed as they made their way to the banquet hall. Carson's gaze unintentionally swept across the couple standing opposite.

He recognized Freddy in an instant.

But what was this scene unfolding before him?

He told Andrew and the others to go ahead while he leaned against a bench, casually observing the duo.

He thought Marina despised Freddy to the point of never wanting anything to do with him again. Yet, here was Freddy, wearing his heart on his sleeve, eagerly professing something, and there she was, looking somewhat mesmerized.

So much for being clear-headed. He had pegged her for someone who would never give a cheating jerk a second chance. Turns out she was just another fool in love!

And yet, she seemed moved!

Annoyed, Carson took out a cigarette, standing there with a look of someone watching a drama unfold, curious if Marina would fall for this jerk again. On the other side

Freddy kept talking about how much he missed Marina since their breakup, even admitting that their encounter in the park was out of jealousy.

"Marina, I truly realize my mistake. Please forgive me just this once. swear I never betray you again, never even glance at another woman!" Freddy almost pleaded.

Marina looked up, "Do you really still love me?"

"Of course!" Freddy said earnestly.

Marina nodded, looking around, "It's crowded here. Let's find a quieter place to talk properly."

"Sure!" Freddy's face lit up with hope, "Whatever you say, as long as you're willing to forgive me." Marina bit her lip, noticing a fountain nearby, "It's quieter over there. Let's talk by the fountain." "Okay!"

Freddy followed Marina to the fountain, his face a picture of tender happiness.

Carson watched them walk away together, his expression suddenly turning cold, a wave of disappointment washing over him.

He had misjudged her after all!

With a scoff, he tossed his cigarette and strode off.

At the fountain, Marina confronted Freddy, "Say it again, do you really love me?"

"I really do love you!" Freddy said passionately.

Marina nodded, pointing to the

statue of the Lady of the Lake in the fountain, "Then swear by the Lady of the Lake, and I'll forgive you for everything in the past!" S

Before he could finish, Marina's expression suddenly changed. She lifted her foot and kicked him squarely in the rear!
