That day, Madeline came to my office and said that she wanted to go on a honeymoon with Charles.
I looked at her helplessly and said, “My parents retired and went traveling and you don’t care about the family business anymore. You’re just using me as a donkey in the production team to cause trouble, right?“>
Madeline smiled and said, “The more capable you are, the more work you should do. You should work harder, sister. When you get married and have children, you can train a successor and you can retire early like our parents.“}
She continued, “By the way, those handsome guys that Charles introduced to you and those boys that your parents introduced to you are all good, why don’t you meet any of them?“>
I sighed, pinched my eyebrows and said, “I don’t want to fall in love now, it’s too annoying, let’s talk about it later.“} Madeline looked at me strangely and said, “Emily, you are not hurt too deeply by Alex and you still can’t forget him.”>
“As the old saying goes, the best way to forget a relationship is to start a new one right away…“>
Before she finished speaking, I pointed in the direction of the office door and said to her without raising my head, “Get lost.” Madeline said with a laugh, “Okay, I’ll get lost now!”
“But before I get lost, l’il tell you that Alex is here, just outside the company. He said that if you don’t see him, he will keep waiting!” Before I responded, Madeline ran away.
I frowned slightly, stood up and walked to the French window, looking downstairs.”
After a long time, I sighed, left the office and went downstairs.
Outside the company’s gate, Alex was wearing a sports suit, dressed like a college student who had just graduated and he was holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
Ignoring the strangeness of passers–by around him, he just stared at me as I walked out of the company, with a bright smile on his face. I kept a distance of two meters from him and looked at him calmly.
Alex’s eyes were red and swollen and he smiled and said to me, “This is the dress I wore when you proposed to me. After a few years, there hasn’t been much change!“}
I didn’t respond.
He continued, “Emily, do you still remember what you said when you proposed to me? You promised me that you would always be good to me and you promised me that you would never leave me for the rest of your life.”
“I was deceived by that bitch Celine before, so I did something that hurt you. I already know I was wrong, can you forgive me?“}
“Let’s start over. From now on, I will do whatever you ask me to do and I will never do anything to let you down again! Please, give me another chance!“}
After that, he took out an engagement ring, which was the ring I bought when I proposed to him that year.
He looked at me expectantly and said in a trembling voice, “This time, it’s my turn to propose!”
“Emily, marry me again, okay?“}
After the words fell, he half–knelt in front of me.
I directly sidestepped, looked at Alex calmly and said in a light voice, “Some things, once missed, cannot be undone. Not every sorry can be exchanged for “It’s okay!”
I sighed, “Alex, we are divorced. The moment you chose Celine, our relationship has come to an end. Don’t indulge in the past. I used to love you deeply, but now, I don’t love you anymore. From now on, there is no you in my world anymore.”
“Don’t disturb my life anymore!” I warned him for the last time.
Alex burst into tears, took two steps forward and wanted to say something.
I took two steps back and said to him calmly, “Goodbye… Forget me, it’s better not to see each other again!“}
Without waiting for his response, I turned and left.
Alex cried bitterly, full of regret. However, he chose this path himself, who could he blame?
No one would stand still and wait for someone. Only when you miss it would you know how to cherish it and there was nothing you can do about it!
Alex, we would never see each other again!}
(The End)
