Goodbye My Arrogant Ex novel Chapter 105

After Leonard left, only the two of them remained.

For reasons she couldn’t quite name, Marguerite felt a strange discomfort settle in her chest.

It had only been two days since they last saw each other, but the way this man treated her had changed so much. She couldn’t make sense of it.

“Marguerite, I honestly never expected that the man you’re marrying would be him!” Luke’s thoughts were equally tangled.

He’d thought that after Marguerite broke up with that other man, maybe he’d have a chance—maybe their relationship could finally move forward.

But he was, once again, a step too late.

“To be honest, I never really thought about it either,” Marguerite said quietly. “Sometimes I ask myself if I’m really ready to just agree to marry someone my parents picked. But this is what my family wants, and I trust my parents—they’d never hurt me. They just want what’s best for me.”

She let out a soft sigh, her gaze growing distant. “I used to believe happiness meant being with someone you loved, but now I think maybe being with someone who’s right for you is enough. Even if you love someone, what’s the point if he doesn’t deserve your love?”

As she spoke, a shadow passed over her face. Unbidden, memories surfaced—she’d given her heart, her everything, believing that sincerity would be returned in kind.

But it hadn’t been.

“Marguerite, you’re being too pessimistic. You’re still so young—you have choices, you still have time. You don’t need to gamble your whole life’s happiness just for your family’s sake!” Luke’s voice was gentle but urgent. “You aren’t even engaged yet. It’s not too late to change your mind. Maybe you were just too hurt, too impulsive, when you agreed to this.”
