Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 870

Chapter 870: What a great timing

There was a strange feeling in coming back to a place one used to go every day in the past. Despite the bad memories associated with it, a wave of nostalgia struck Nina’s heart as she showed Jonathan around the campus.

Stopping on a pathway and gazing at the distant greenhouse, the corner of Nina’s mouth curled up. Her eyes softened, and she let out a shallow sigh.

Jonathan stopped when she did, glancing in the direction where she was looking. "What is that greenhouse?"

"I mentioned there was a Star Section... that’s their garden," she muttered, keeping her eyes on the beautiful greenhouse, which was gloriously reflecting the midday sun. "It’s a place where the Star Section students relax or just idle. It’s an exclusive area just for them."

"Oh..."

"I didn’t get to go there when I was attending this school," Nina remarked, intending to stop there, but then she blurted out, "But he was always there."

"He?" Jonathan’s question made her flinch slightly, her brows rising. "Your fiancé?"

Looking back at him and seeing the curiosity in his eyes, she smiled. "Ex-fiancé."

"Right... that woman mentioned it earlier."

"Yes. I’m sorry again about that."

"It’s not your fault, so you don’t have to apologize for anything." He shrugged nonchalantly. "It was that woman’s mind that was malicious."

Nina pursed her lips, looking away from him to stare at the exclusive garden for the Star Section students. The feeling was a little strange whenever she thought about how Finn and she had both attended the same school before she transferred to another. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

Who would have thought she and Finn would get involved in a romantic relationship to the point of almost marrying each other?

"If your ex-fiancé is a star student as well, does that mean he knows Cassandra?" Jonathan asked, earning a look from Nina. "She told me that things in the Star Section only changed in her last year, with new people taking spots and others getting kicked out due to a bet."

"Ah..." Nina rocked her head and smiled. How was she going to explain that her ex was Finn, Cassandra’s ex-fiancé as well?

It wasn’t that Nina didn’t know Finn and Cassandra’s relationship was arranged by their families, but it still felt strange. However, Nina didn’t plan to hide it, knowing that Jonathan would eventually find out.

"Well, the thing is... Cassandra and—"

"Wait a minute," Jonathan suddenly interrupted her politely, pulling out his phone to check who was calling. The moment he saw the caller, his eyes snapped back to Nina. "I’ll just pick this up."

"Oh—sure, of course!" Nina stepped a few paces away to give him some privacy, while Jonathan also walked away from her.

Nina observed Jonathan’s figure but didn’t dwell on it, refocusing her attention on the greenhouse. Throughout her relationship with Finn, they had talked about this school quite a few times. After all, they went to the same school, and although they had crossed paths back then, they never would have imagined falling in love with each other.

Nina, for one, didn’t think she would almost marry such an amazing man.
