Coincidence Or Fate - Chapter 103 Destiny
Angelique was still in tears when she notices Annie and Producer Chia looking so concern. She tried to calm herself down as she wipes off the tears in her eyes. “I’m sorry, I don’t know what’s gotten into me”
“Ange, be honest, do you love him?” Annie asked
Angelique shook her head after hearing Annie question, “Of course not.”
“Angelique, I know it not our business but why are you crying then?” Producer Chia asked
It made Angelique speechless for a moment as she wonders what made her cry, she thought back to the moment she cried, it all started after she heard Scott was leaving. “I don’t know.”
“Angelique, you can fool anyone but you can never fool your heart.” Producer Chia added, “One can simply hide their feeling but one can never control it.”
Annie got out some tissue from her bag and cleaned Angelique face, “Ange, darling, we may not know each other for a long time but I’ve treated you like my own child since you treated my daughter so well.”
“I know you are in pain right now, but bottling it up will not do you good. Keeping everything to yourself might cost you your life, you might even regret everything in the future. Why must you continue to hurt yourself when you can’t handle all the pain?”
“They once said, when you’re about to lose someone important to you, your life would feel like it’s the end of the world. This just means that this person means a lot to you, that you cannot live without them.”
Angelique could not help it and tears fell down her face again, “Annie, I don’t kn-know…”
“Ange, are you worried you might not see him again?” She asked
“Maybe, I don’t know…” She cried
Producer Chia ponders if whether he should interfere and call Scott over but by the way the two of them have treated each other, it seems it’s not the right time. From what he had observed being with them for a few days, Scott truly still loves her but he too does not want to admit it for the pain she had given him.
“Ange, calm down, it’s not the end of the world you might see him anytime if you wish,” Annie said
“Why should I?” she said
Producer Chia sighed, “Angelique let me give you a simple quote about destiny for you to keep, I’m sure you have heard of this too. If you love someone let them go, if they return you were meant to be, if they don’t… I know you know the answer to that.”
Angelique, of course, knows the meaning of the quote, but it made her wonder why Producer Chia was telling her to let go of Scott. For her, it was something meaningless since she won’t hold him back at all. She understood what the quote meant but does not understand what Producer Chia was trying to imply.
“Ange always remember, Destiny decides who you meet in life but it’s only your heart that can decide who gets to stay in your life.” Annie embraced Angelique, “You may not realize this but there are loads of people loving you, you just need to open your heart and let go of the past.”
Inside the car, Angelique was quietly looking outside the window recalling what happened earlier. As her mind continued to repeat the word Producer Chia and Annie mentioned to her, she could not help it and felt like they were telling her something important.
“Open my heart?” She thought to herself. It made her wonder who Annie meant by that, she does not know anyone at all who have confessed their love for her. Plus, the only person she particularly fancy until now is Jamie yet his not available. So who could Annie mean by that?

Back in Producer Chia office, he was busy on the phone with someone. “Why are you running away for? How can you call yourself a man when you’re too afraid to face what’s in front of you. I hope you won’t regret it.”
The person on the other end sighed, “She to stupid anyways to realize who loves her.”
Producer Chia became furious hearing the man words, “What if she does fall for someone in the end? Will you be fine with that? Can you accept her being with someone despite you know you were the one for her?”
“Seriously, forget about it, we won’t see each other anymore anyway,” he replied
“What if I tell you she cried hearing you’re about to depart today,” he added
The person on the other end did not respond for a few seconds, “Then I’m not worthy for her.”
The call then ended with those simple words yet filled with sorrow. Producer Chia sighed deeply as he felt a sudden headache is about to come. He did not expect such love could still exist in this modern world. “I hope destiny will do you both good.”
