"In fact, | liked you long before he did."
Henry's words made Calista steal a few extra glances his way.
Ken laughed bitterly. "No wonder. | always wondered how you managed to get your hands on so many unique
gifts over the years. Music boxes, Louis Vuitton bags..." "They were all specially picked out for Calista, weren't
they?"
Henry readily admitted it. "Yes, they were."
Ken felt like he was losing his mind.
He reached up, agonizingly tugging at his hair, his eyes vacant. Finally, he crumpled weakly to the floor.
His best friend had married the love of his life. Was this divine retribution?
But Ken wasn't one to surrender easily.
He emptied the contents of his bag onto the floor. "Calista, look. These are all the little gifts you made for me.
They hold the precious memories of our time
together."

pointless." "Back then, | was simply naive. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
-Ken was stunned.
He had brought up their history to remind Calista of the good times, not to elicit an apology.
Utterly defeated, Ken realized that no matter how hard he fought, it seemed futile. "I won't accept this. | won't
accept you marrying him!"
Calista gave him a conflicted look. "I already discussed the marriage with Uncle Johnson. He knows, and he gave
his blessing."
At that moment, Henry ushered in several security guards from outside.
They approached Ken, saluting him before explaining. "We apologize, sir, but unauthorized personnel are not
permitted on the base. Please cooperate with
us."
With that, they restrained Ken and escorted him off the premises.
Ken thrashed against them. "Let go of me! I'm not going anywhere! I'm not leaving! Calista, look at me! Just look
at
me..."
Even after Ken's shouts had faded away completely, Calista remained somber. “I truly don't know how he found
his way here."

As Calista turned to go, Henry grabbed her and pulled her into an embrace. "Don't go..."
Calista froze, noting the frightened inflection in his words. Her heart melted, and she reached up to rub soothing
circles on Henry's back. "Okay, I'll stay. I'll stay right here with you."
Henry lowered his head to rest his chin on her shoulder, sniffling pitifully. "Calista, I'm so jealous."
Calista's hand slowed its comforting motions, just for a moment.

your past..."
"What's there to be jealous of? The past is the past." "My present and my future belong to you now."
However, Calista had no desire to compare their jealousies. “Henry, you mentioned that you had feelings for me
even before Ken did. Is that true?"
A hint of bashfulness colored Henry's face.
