I'm Sorry My Love Novel

have someone you like." He hesitated for a moment before he replied, "But I don't know what she

thinks of me." Elijah was afraid they would not even be friends anymore if he told Leanna of his

feelings. "She doesn't have a boyfriend now, anyway. Give it a try." Instead of answering her, the man

turned to look at Zoe with suspicious eyes. He probably didn't expect she would make a correct guess.

She raised her chin at him and after stealing a glance at Leanna, Zoe said to him in a voice that only

they could hear. "Don't worry, I will help you." He thought for a moment before nodding. "Okay." The

traffic wasn't the smoothest and by the time they arrived outside the concert location, the sky had

already started to turn dark. When Zoe saw the crowd that was attending the concert, she let out a wow

and asked, "Elijah, is your friend that good?" "Yes." He smiled. "He is amazing. He has won several

international music awards." While waiting for Elijah to park his car, she nudged Leanna with her elbow

before asking, "Hey, did you hear what Elijah and I were talking about in the car?" "Huh? What did you

talk about?" Leanna seemed somewhat confused. She had been in a daze the whole time they were in

the car that she really didn't hear their conversation. Zoe let out a mysterious smile upon hearing that.

"It is nothing," she murmured. Elijah soon came after he parked the car. "Let's head in." After entering

the concert hall, Zoe deliberately took a step back to let Elijah and Leanna walk together. This way,

they would be next to each other when they sat down later. Elijah's friend had given him great seats in

the front row, where they could see the stage clearly. They were a little late, so the concert started as

soon as they sat down. Just as Zoe was secretly cheering about her plan being successful again,

Leanna whispered in her ear, "Look onstage." "Huh? What?" Zoe subconsciously looked over, only for

her eyes to widen when she saw Daniel appearing on the stage and gasped. "Why is he here?" When

Elijah overheard their conversation, he asked them in a low voice, "You know him?" "He lives right next

door. He has only moved there recently." Leanna, who was sitting between them, answered. After a

slight pause, she asked in return, "Is that the friend you said who lives in our area?" Elijah nodded in

response. “But I didn't think he would so coincidentally live right beside your place." On the other hand,

Zoe was dumbfounded. She truly believed that the love story between a normal girl and a musical

genius had finally begun. The hall fell silent as soon as the music reverberated throughout the space.

Zoe, too, stared at the stage intently without blinking. About half an hour later, she suddenly felt

someone tap her on the shoulder. She didn't look over, and proceeded to shrug and ignore the person.

However, instead of giving up because of this, they urgently tapped her again. Annoyed, she turned her

head and was about to yell at the person for doing this out of spite, but she became quiet the moment

she was greeted with an indifferent look on the person's face. Aidan then hooked a finger at her as he

tilted his head. Zoe knew that he was gesturing for her to switch seats with her, but she only stayed

there hesitating. She had painstakingly brought the two together to watch the concert, and even had

them sit next to each other. This was supposed to be the perfect time for Elijah and Leanna to cultivate

their feelings. If Aidan was here to get in the way, wouldn't that be... The man now had his lips pursed

slightly as he peered at her with a warning gaze. The instant Zoe felt a chill crawl up her back, she

quickly got up and switched seats with him. In the end, she repeatedly assured herself, I have many

more chances to set them up, but I only have one life to live. Leanna had been so fixated on the stage

that she did not notice what was happening beside her. She felt her right hand being held all of a

sudden. She was caught off-guard for a moment. Even though Zoe would sometimes hold her hand or

hug her arm, it never felt this cheesy. This didn't feel like something she would do. Right when Leanna

was trying to figure out what was happening, the fingers of the hand that held hers had already slid

between her fingers, and was gently grabbing her by the palm. She turned around, only to see that the

person beside her had been switched out. Leanna was at a loss for words. As though provoking her,

the man looked into her eyes with his eyebrows raised ever- so slightly. She managed to suppress the

anger that instantly bubbled up, but she tried hard to pull her hand out of his grip. Although Aidan

looked as if he wasn't using any force, she still couldn't pry her hand away. She must have been jerking

too forcefully that Elijah looked over at her. "Leanna? What's wrong?" he asked. Immediately, Leanna

pulled her hand, along with Aidan's, and hid it behind her. She even flashed Elijah an oddly natural

smile as she said, "It is nothing. Just a slight discomfort. Let's continue to watch the show."
