Chapter 21
When Isabela closed the suitcase, it was drizzling outside.
Rhett was tidying up the last few books in the living room when he saw her staring at the rain curr head, “Reluctant to leave?
She shook her head, her eyes scanning the small apartment she had lived in for half a year.
lost in thought. He walked over and rubbed her
On the balcony were the succulents Rhett raised, in the kitchen was the floral apron she picked out, and on the desk were two medical and planning books. placed side by side.
My phone suddenly vibrated.
“I’m sorry, I only realized how wrong I was until now. Back then, I always thought you would never leave no matter what I did, allowing the people around me to bully and hurt you. I never truly understood my own heart, thinking that after we separated, you would definitely come back to me like you used to, apologizing in a low voice.”
“When you really left, I found out that it was actually me who couldn’t adapt. No matter what I do, I always think of you. 1 always dream of you forgiving me and coming back in the middle of the night. When I excitedly open my eyes, I realize that it was all just a dream. That mocnent is when I truly feel what regret is”
“I won’t bother you anymore.. I wish you happiness.. forever happy. I’m sorry.”
Sender. Darren.
Isabela stared at these lines for a long time, so long that when Rhett came over with hot milk, the screen had already turned off.
“Do you want a reply? Rhett handed her the milk, just the right temperature.
She shook her head, deleted the message, and stuffed her phone into the middle layer of her suitcase.
The rain stopped outside the window, a ray of sunshine broke through the clouds, shining directly on the sunflower specimen Rhett gave her last night. “Let’s go,” she said with a smile as she took Rhett’s hand, “we still need to catch our flight.”
The traffic was really bad on the way, and by the time we got to the airport, there wasn’t much time left to check in. After passing through security, the two of us quickly picked up the pace
While checking in at the counter, Isabela seemed to have a feeling and suddenly turned around
In the bustling crowd, she seemed to see a familiar tall figure.
The man was wearing a black overcoat, tall and thin, even with a mask on, you could still feel his extremely pale face
The two of them were separated by mountains and rivers, they stared at each other in silence for a few seconds, neither of them spoke.
Rhett followed her gaze and asked, “What’s up?”
“It’s okay, just a nobody.” Isabela looked away and handed her boarding pass to the security officer.
At the airport terminal window, Darren watched as the figure gradually disappeared into the distance
Isabela was wearing a light yellow dress, Rhett was talking to her with his head down, making her suddenly laugh, her eyes forming two crescent moons. Just like
many years ago, when she first burned her hand while malding coffee for him, she laughed that too.
The boarding announcement came on the radio, and Darren took out a cigarette but put it back.
He took one last look at the figure that had turned into a small black dot, then turned and walked towards the exit in the opposite direction.
After three months of settling down in Bebrium, Rhett decided to propose.
The moment Mucrer Tower lit up, Rhett got down on one knee.
“This time you can’t delete my messages again.” He said, his hand holding the diamond ring was shaking, and inside the ring was engraved “1&R 2018.10.38” – the date they first met
Isabela’s tears fell on the rose petals.
Three years ago on that rainy night, Rhett said while walking her home with an umbrella, “You can scrutinize me for a lifetime
Now, he held the carefully crafted ring and solemnly promised, “I want to take our relationship to the next level.”

In the midst of the crowd’s excitement, she suddenly remembered the email she received this morning – the “International Af in Healthcare Summit” invited her to be a speaker.
At the end of the email, there was a list of sponsors, with the first one being the Cressey Charity Foundation
All the love and hate, the joys and sorrows from the past, have completely disappeared with the passage of time.
“I’m willing,” she heard herself say
When Rhett was fumbling to put the ring on her finger, some domestic tourists recognized Isabela: “Are you the planning director of Soul AI? My daughter was diagnosed by this system!”
In the moment when the flash went off, Isabela saw a man wearing sunglasses outside the crowd.
But when she blinked again, there was only a fresh sunflower left.
And on the other side, the board of directors, a ew shareholders were arguing fiercely.
“Transitioning to charity? Are you crazy, Darren?” The majority shareholder slammed the report on the table. “Net profit dropped by 27% last year!”
Darren was wearing a watch on his left wrist–the same one as Rhett’s.
The back of the dial was engraved with a tiny “DAI“, which was secretly customized for Isabela’s birthday one year. He didn’t find it until he was cleaning the villa
The thing that everyone forgot, he now treasures like a gem, becoming the only thought between the two of them.
“Three things.” He pressed the remote control, and the screen displayed the revised “Law of Protection of Minors.”
“First, 20% of the profits from all profitable projects of the Cressey Group are injected into the anti–bullying fund; second, all acquired Reilly Properties are renovated into welfare homes; third……
He opened the International news this morning, and Isabela was smiling on the podium in the picture.
“Sponsoring the global promotion of this medical A1 *
“And that’s it, the meeting is over.”
Darren sighed deeply and left without looking back
The meeting room suddenly fell silent, with only a few shareholders looking at each other, eventually shaking their heads in resignation.
