Chapter 0304

Nan wasn’t sure what she was doing. For days, she had felt like a total mess and could sense herself spiraling out of control.

“My cousin really likes you,” Mac said.

During lunch the day before, she told her, “He thought you were really cute and funny. He wanted me to find out if you were seeing anyone.”

At that moment, Nan and Judy had just arrived in the country the day before. Nan had met Mac then.

Tyler met Kelsey later that evening during their lunch. Nan watched them as they talked, her eyes moving back and forth like she was watching a volleyball game.

“Are you seeing anyone?” Nan thought to herself.

As she thought about Mac’s question, she realized it wasn’t easy to answer. Was she seeing anyone? Her situation with Chester was complicated. Chester was supposed to be her soulmate, but it felt like he didn’t want her at all. He seemed more interested in sleeping with anyone who showed him attention.

Would going out with a guy while on a trip abroad really matter to Chester?

Nan was convinced that Chester would reject her once she got back home. Because of this, she felt like nothing truly mattered. Maybe it was just a rebound.

She was on her third martini, and for some reason, she found herself shaking her head.

“I’m not seeing anyone,” she said softly, picking up her glass and taking another sip of her drink.

Mac’s smile brightened the whole room.

She clapped her hands together excitedly. “He’s going to be so happy!” she said with a smile. “Do you want to get together tonight? Tyler wants to go to dinner and thought we should all join him.”

Nan nodded, nibbling on her snack, feeling pleased with the idea.

on her lower lip.

“Yeah, that sounds great,” she agreed.

Since that conversation, a whole day has gone by. At dinner last night, Tyler was very nice to her. He sat close and mostly talked to her, making her feel special.

She tried to act interested in what he was saying, but her thoughts kept drifting back to Chester. She often found herself cursing her own mind for it.

Today, however, Tyler was acting strangely.

He held her close, wrapping his arms around her and whispering sweetly in her ear. He kissed her softly. They had shared a kiss the night before, but Nan had stopped it before it got too intense. She couldn’t bear the thought of things going too far.

Emily felt uncomfortable. She was already in a relationship, even if her partner didn’t want her anymore. But Tyler didn’t seem to understand this. He kept touching and kissing her, ignoring the many times she tried to pull away. It was as if he felt he had some sort of unspoken claim on her, despite her clear signals.

Tyler really upset Judy when he answered for her and then didn’t let her join them.

Nan knew it was a last-minute situation. There probably weren’t any tickets left for sale, but that wasn’t Tyler’s call to make.

It was Nan’s invitation to her best friend, so it was her job to figure something out. It wasn’t going to be easy, especially since it involved a guy she had just met less than 48 hours ago.

Nan could see that Judy was upset about the whole situation. She wanted to comfort her friend and help her feel better.

She was biting her tongue, perhaps waiting for Nan to speak first. How did everything get so messy so quickly?

“What are you thinking about?” Tyler asked. He placed an arm around her and pulled her closer.

Nan leaned into his side as they sat together in the resort parlor. This room had a beautiful view of a stunning water fountain. Nan felt calm and peaceful here. The walls were lined with flowers, and the large windows stretched from the floor to the ceiling. In the distance, she could see the sparkling water dancing in the sunlight.

the ocean. It was the only spot in the resort that wasn’t crowded with people. There wasn’t much to do there except relax.

**Chapter 0304**

Before Tyler unexpectedly arrived, Nan was sitting on the loveseat, reading a book.

Nan sat with her hands in her lap, trying hard not to think about Chester. It felt like that was the only thing her mind could focus on lately.

“I’m just nervous for Judy,” Nan said, lying a little. In truth, she had complete faith in Judy’s skills to handle anything that came her way.

Nan was upset with Tyler for speaking rudely to her friend. She didn’t like how he treated her friend and it made her question their relationship. Nan wasn’t even sure if she wanted to go out with him anymore, especially since he didn’t seem to be giving her a real choice in the matter.

Tyler always seemed to be around.

“I’m sure she’ll do great,” he said, gently tucking a strand of hair behind Nan’s ear. “How about we go back to my room and—”

“Actually,” Nan interrupted, “I promised Judy that—”

“I would help her with something,” Nan said. She put her book back into her purse, which was resting at her feet on the ground. Then, she grabbed the strap of her purse, swung it over her shoulder, and stood up.
