Chapter 214 - Two Options
Andrew needed someone to talk to. He had to pour out all the negative emotions he had kept in his heart or else he would never feel better.
A stranger like Liam could help him even just for tonight. He could tell him whatever he wanted since Liam didn't know him. He just needed someone to listen to him.
He started sharing his troubles with Liam while Liam just let him speak and was just quietly listening to Andrew.
He thought everything was going smoothly between Hannah and him. Who would have thought that Hannah's feelings for Tristan would resurface once again?
Yes, Andrew knew that Hannah had feelings for Tristan before but because Tristan became distant from them Andrew got the chance to win Hannah's heart.
"Is this my punishment for being selfish before. Is this my Karma?" Andrew was being emotional right now.
Andrew felt insecure because he was just a bastard son. Though Tristan's family accepted him and treated him well, people couldn't help but compare the two brothers with each other.
He also experienced being bullied when he was young because of his status as a bastard son. They threw him different insults, cursing his mother for seducing the CEO.
They always emphasized that he was just a fake heir and he would never be Tristan. That's the start Andrew wanted to surpass Tristan in everything.
He wanted to prove himself in the Davis family so he became competitive with Tristan. He persevered to become better than him. He did well in his studies, and he became an obedient child to his father, Tristan's mother and grandparents.
Andrew was also aware that Tristan loved Hannah but he never informed them. He became selfish because he also wanted Hannah for himself.
He thought that day would never come. But just one day, Hannah became extra sweet with him then Tristan changed and started to avoid Hannah and him.
Hannah became sad because of that. So Andrew tried his best to make Hannah happy without Tristan's presence. Then Hannah started to develop her feelings towards Andrew.
Andrew courted her and confessed his love for Hannah. He felt so lucky when Hannah accepted his love. He was the happiest guy at that time.
"I am about to marry her. My brother is also married to someone. Why is it this thing has to happen now?" Andrew couldn't help but ask.
Liam took a deep sigh before he spoke up.
"Maybe it's for the better, Bro. At least, you learned what she truly felt before you would marry her. Why don't you give each other some time and space to figure out your feelings towards each other?"
"Since your brother is her first love, maybe she is just confused right now. Remember, the two of them didn't get the chance to confess. They hide their feelings for too long. And your brother's accidental confession and his sudden marriage was the cause of this and had triggered your fiancee to act like this."
"Maybe she is still thinking of those what ifs."
"What should I do now? I feel betrayed. I love her but I am mad. I feel like she just used me before. And about my brother, I don't know if he truly loves his wife." Andrew's grip on his glass tightened.
"What if he is just using her as well and he still loves Hannah? I felt sorry for his wife. I am really mad not only because I'm hurt but also because his wife is also in pain right now." Andrew told Liam truthfully.
Liam was taken aback after hearing that. Then his lips curled up into a faint smile.
"Hey, what's the meaning of that, Bro? Do you care about his wife?" Liam chuckled after saying that. His emerald eyes seemed like teasing Andrew.
Andrew frowned upon seeing Liam's strange look. "Don't give me that kind of look, Dude! I just felt sorry for her. She is very nice and a good person. I misjudged her before. But after getting to know her more, I can say she's really a wonderful person."
Liam just bobbed his head. The smile was still on his lips. He played the glass of wine on his hand.
"So, are you thinking that there's a possibility that your brother's marriage is just for show and he might divorce his wife because he still loves your fiancee?" Liam asked Andrew expectantly.
Andrew clenched his fists and narrowed his eyes at that thought. He didn't answer him.
Liam shook his head while clicking his tongue, "Tsk, Tsk, Tsk! From your expression alone, I can tell that it is possible to happen."
"If that happens then you have two options to do," Liam added.
Andrew's frown deepened after hearing that. He moved his gaze from his glass to Liam. "Two options? What are you talking about?"
Liam patted Andrew's back before answering him.
"First option, fight for your love until the end. Don't let your brother steal your fiancee."
"Second option, forget about you fiancee, let her be happy with your brother and..." Liam paused for a moment.
"And then what?" Andrew was not happy about the second option.
"Then, why don't you pursue your brother's wife? I mean his ex-wife if ever he will divorce her. I can see that you care about her too. Help her move on as well. What do you think? Nice suggestion right?" Liam chuckled and winked at Andrew after saying that. He just wanted to lighten his mood.
Andrew fell silent when he heard that suggestion. Then Lillie's lovely face popped up in his mind. He wondered what she was doing right now. He was worried about her.
He wanted to take her away from that place, away from Tristan after witnessing that scene. He knew that Lillie also felt miserable just like him.
Mark and Daniel made a move with a right timing because after telling Lillie about Tristan's feelings towards Hannah, Lillie had witnessed Hannah confessing her feelings to her husband, Tristan.
That was a huge blow to Lillie. Andrew could understand her pain.
