Regrets

Part 24.

Heather has a very relaxing time. Her body massage, head massage, facial, and everything was done. The pedicure was for the last.

" Your skin is beautiful, madam. " The girls complimented her skin.

She was fat previously but always maintained her skin. With minimal makeup and hydration, she had flawless skin.

Madam, you can browse these magazines till i finish your pedicure.

The girls there offered her some magazines for browsing when Joseph's picture caught her attention. She stared at the picture with disbelief.

The girl looked at Anne. " Are you also a fan of Joseph?

Do you have any idea who he is? Anne asked.

You must be kidding. Who doesn't know Joseph Crawley?

I am from England. So I have no idea. I just found him familiar. I can't deny he is a good-looking boy.

Yes, he is the sole heir of Ytech corporation and a model in his early days. I think he left modeling and has taken over his family business. His dad has been missing from the limelight for the past few months."

Dainel must be in rehab. One of the other girls replied.

He was a famous playboy of his time. I think he dated most of the celebs of that time. You might know him.

Wasn't he dating Christy Fowler, the supermodel? Playboy reported that they were soon going to be married. Said the girl from the opposite side.

I think in the last issue of The magazine their breakup rumors surfaced.

"Who is this Daniel and Christy?" heather asked.

She took out a recent magazine and gave it to Heather.

This is Daniel Hector Crawley. He is more handsome than his son and this is Christy Fowler, his girlfriend. She is the one who he dated longest. Poor Chirsty Fowler was miserable when rumors of their break-up surfaced.

Did they break up ? When? Laura the girl jumped.

Heather's mind went completely blank. There was a picture of Daniel and Christy. That woman was smoking hot. Her tanned and perfect body was visible in that bikini she was wearing. They were on a yacht.

So did they really break up? The other girl asked.

Look at the new edition. She denied breakup rumors. She said Daniel is with his parents for personal reason . She said marriage was still on the cards.

Anne was very quiet trying to process everything. Her head was spinning with this revelation.

Why am I so worth less, that everyone fools me?

She initially thought of going back to Zach's place, but she remembered that she couldn't do that again. She avoided confronting Aaron, and she couldn't do that again. She has to face her demons this time.

She paid the saloon extra and got the magazine. She was so stressed that she could cry any minute she needed time to compose herself. She went to a nearby café and sat there slowly enjoying her caramel latte and thinking.

The past months with Daniel were really blissful. She never experienced those feelings with Aaron. Daniel was a womanizer. After all, he knew art. But why would he hide his identity? Nor am I beautiful like those supermodels, nor am I rich. Only Daniel can answer my questions.

She then searched for Daniel's name on Google. There were plenty of pictures of him with various woman but Chirsty was the one most photographed recently. She also saw Daniels' high school picture. Something triggered her memory. She recalled the past which she never wanted to remember.
