My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul novel Chapter 1706

At that time, just like now, Alina didn't know how to answer. She just kept avoiding it.

She only felt that Harvey was truly a great person. He was different from the others who pursued her, and everyone around her spoke highly of him, including her parents.

She believed that being with him would be good. After all, it seemed like being with Theodore wasn't meant to be, and being with anyone else felt like nothing more than a matter of convenience.

Had it not been for Harvey, she probably would have been with someone else, and as long as everyone approved of it, she would have considered it fine.

Realizing this, she found herself unable to tell Skylar what she truly thought. If only she could say that it wasn't just about settling but that she liked Harvey, then everything would be fine.

"You don't have to answer me right away. When dealing with feelings, everyone gets too caught up in them to be able to see things clearly. I just hope you don't hurt Harvey. If you don't love him, then it's best to let him know. If you do love him, then I still wish you both the best," Skylar said gently when she noticed how conflicted Alina was.

Skylar wasn't concerned about any misunderstanding between Alina and her first love. She was only concerned about whether the situation would hurt Harvey.

Alina bit her lip, torn by the question.

Just as she was about to respond to Skylar, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing that the caller was Theodore, she froze for a moment. But then, without thinking, she answered the call.

She had forgotten entirely that Skylar was sitting across from her.

"Hello…" she answered.

Skylar watched helplessly as Alina rushed outside, her gaze following them as they embraced and kissed passionately. In that moment, the world seemed to vanish, leaving only the two of them.

Beneath the towering skyscrapers and amidst the bustling crowds, their love was undeniable, palpable to anyone who looked.

Skylar's eyes darkened, a heavy weight settling in her chest. She hadn't expected Alina to lose all composure at the sight of Theodore, discarding the hesitation and affection she had shown just moments before.

But Skylar had her answer now.

After leaving the restaurant, she texted Alina, "Since you've reunited with your first love, it's best to tell Harvey the truth so that he can move on."
