Chapter 46 Over the next few days , Kaneeta was busy with project matters and was out of the office most of the time . This suited her just fine , as it meant she didn't have to face Edmund's face so often . As the project was smoothly wrapping up , Kaneeta felt increasingly at ease . Soon , she would be able to leave this place for good . Even in the midst of her hectic schedule , she didn't forget to prepare a birthday gift for her best friend , whose birthday was coming up . She and her best friend had grown up together , but in recent years her friend had been studying abroad , only returning to Roseburn a few days ago . They had already agreed that once Kaneeta was back in Roseburn , they would have a proper get - together . On her best friend's birthday , while Kaneeta was having lunch at a restaurant , she received a call from her . " Ah- ! " As soon as the call connected , Cora Hale's excited scream came through . " Neeta ! How did you know I've always wanted Chapter 46 this camera ? I love you so much ! " tto. " Keep your voice down , you're about to make me deaf . " Kaneeta instinctively held the phone away from her ear , only bringing it back when Cora calmed down . " I saw you liked an ad for this brand on social media . " " Aww , babe , I knew you were the best . " Cora was touched . " Just thinking about how I was abroad these past years and you were monopolized by that Edmund makes me so mad ! " Kaneeta was silent for a moment before she spoke : " Edmund and I have broken up . " " What ? Really ? " Cora's tone was unmistakably happy . " You finally came to your senses ! I told you before he wasn't right for you … " Before Cora went abroad , she had dinner once with Kaneeta and Edmund . Actually , Edmund's behavior that time was impeccable - he was very attentive to his girlfriend and considerate to her friend , while still maintaining proper boundaries . But Cora always felt something was off , though she couldn't quite put her finger on it . Chapter 46 She told Kaneeta that she didn't think much of the man , but at the time Kaneeta had already fallen into Edmund's gentle trap and wouldn't listen at all . Later , Cora went abroad for her studies , and with her busy with school and Kaneeta busy with work , they kept in touch less frequently . Still , their friendship remained as strong as ever . When Kaneeta learned the truth , she had wanted to tell Cora right away , but Cora was swamped with graduation matters at the time , and Kaneeta didn't want to distract her , so she kept it to herself . " Yeah , I really should have listened to you sooner , " Kaneeta said with a bitter smile . " Neeta , what made you finally see things clearly ? " " It's a long story . I'll tell you all about it when I get back to Roseburn ." " " Okay … Oh ! That reminds me ! No wonder I heard my family talking about you getting engaged yesterday . But I was drinking last night, so I thought I was just hearing things . Now that I think about it , it's true ! Are you really getting engaged ? " " Yeah , I've already told my dad I'm willing ," Kaneeta replied . " But I still don't know who I'm supposed to be engaged to . " Chapter 46 " Hey , I heard it yesterday ! " Cora recalled , " I remember , I think it was … Miguel Hartwell ! The son of the second branch of the Hartwell family . Do you remember him ? " Kaneeta lowered her eyes , looking at the food in front of her . " Yeah , I vaguely remember him ." " I heard my family mention his name , and they said you two would make a good match . I think so too - Miguel is quite handsome , and he's a well - known artist now . I heard he's going to have an exhibition soon ." Once Cora started chatting with her best friend , she couldn't stop : " I've met Miguel a few times before , and he seemed nice - very gentle , definitely better than Edmund . " Kaneeta also pictured Miguel's face in her mind . Indeed , Miguel was strikingly handsome , a genius artist , and his character was well regarded among the elite circles of Roseburn . So her father had chosen someone from the Hartwell family as her fiancé . Suddenly , Kaneeta thought of Woodrow . Did Woodrow know about the engagement between their two Chapter 46 families ? Lately , Woodrow had been helping her at every turn … Could it be because he knew she was going to be his future sister - in - law ?
