Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 692:

“I can’t!”

Elyse spoke, her tone soothing.

“Darling, why not? It’s a small price to pay for something so important. Once you do this, Cedric will be forever grateful when he wakes up.

You’ll have made such a huge sacrifice for him—it’ll win his heart, without a doubt.”

Nina’s thoughts spiraled in turmoil.

“But if I go through with this, Cedric will despise me!”

Natalie scoffed.

“Nina, are you out of your mind? Why would Cedric despise you? You’re doing this for him. It’s just one time. Why are you making such a big deal of it? This kind of thing is common in our circle.

You said you’d do anything for Cedric, didn’t you? So why are you backing out now?”noveldrama

Tears streamed down Nina’s face as she clung desperately to Elyse’s hand.

“But Mom, I want to save myself for Cedric. I don’t want to give myself to a stranger!”

Elyse shook her hand off.

“Don’t be so naive. This is your opportunity. Cedric never truly noticed you.

You need to understand—this is your moment. If you don’t take it, how else will you make him feel guilty enough to marry you? A small sacrifice now for a lifetime of wealth and security. What’s the better choice here?”

Nina stood frozen, unable to move.

“Take your time, but make up your mind in five minutes. If you can’t go through with it, then forget it. Let Cedric die. It’s not like it matters to us.” With those cutting words, Natalie turned on her heel and walked out.

The situation had hit her like a storm, and Nina felt completely lost. She gazed helplessly at her mother, her face streaked with tears.

“Mom, is Linden really the only one who can save Cedric? Isn’t there any other way?”

Elyse shook her head.

“There’s no other option.”

Nina’s head hung low, and her lips trembled as tears streamed down her face.

“Alright!” At last, she relented.

She stood there, shaking, mustering every ounce of her strength to force out that one word.

Elyse smiled brightly, lavishing her with praise.

“I knew you were clever. Once Cedric wakes up, he’ll owe you everything.

You’ll be able to proudly tell him that you sacrificed something precious to save him. He’ll be grateful to you for the rest of his life.”

Nina wasn’t certain whether Cedric would feel thankful, but the idea made her feel sick to her stomach.

She had guarded her innocence for so long, dreaming of giving herself to Cedric. But now, it was to be taken by a stranger.

Her head dropped, feeling heavy with despair. She even wanted to die.

Nina knew she couldn’t die. She still had the task of saving Cedric. She had to rescue the man she loved from danger.

When she saw Daniela at the hospital, Nina suddenly felt a strange sense of superiority.

It seemed to her that Daniela might not possess the same bravery she did. She was willing to sacrifice everything for love, not just talk about it.
