Arabella's POV

I tried. I promise. The moment I heard the news, I tried to restrain but the laugh escaped me anyway, and I burst out laughing. Who was the unfortunate lady?

"You… You are laughing?" Margaret seemed confused. "You find the news that the man you have feelings for is getting mated funny."

I stopped laughing. "Margaret, I don't like him."

"Of course."

"You are saying that but I can read something else between the lines. I honestly have no feelings for him. If he decides to mate with someone else, then good for her. It's nothing to me. I'm so happy for him and sorry for her."
