“I’m hungry. Let’s to to eat together.” although Adam says unhappily, yet he’s changed his attitude to
Lisa a bit. He doesn’t know why he just wants to have dinner with her right now.
There’s a touch of abnormal feeling in Lisa’s eyes. He’s actually going to have dinner with her. What
does he want? Shouldn’t he have a date with Miya? Why does him suddenly give her the chance?
“You should invite Miya to dinner.” Lisa says quietly. But when she says the words out, she feels the
pain inside.
“Are you jealous?” He keeps saying. He doesn’t know why he feels uncomfortable when Lisa refuses
him. The gal who loves him so long suddenly refuses him. The pride of a man makes him unwillingly to
accept the truth.
Actually it is more than that. He’s a bit agitated, a bit upset. If she leaves him, if she doesn’t like him
anymore, what would he do?
Lisa doesn’t say a word. She’s not jealous, because she know there’s only one woman in the heart of
Adam, and this woman is Miya. She has been used to the pain. Yet why all the men are so narcissistic?
Why would she jealous? What kind of men they think they are that they can make others jealous bout
them?
Lisa doesn’t plan to pay attention to him, but coincidentally she sees a woman walking towards her.
The corners of her mouth pull up, with a touch of smile on her face. Aileen, the arrogant daughter of
Bella, is back.
Alex must be hate her, as she is Bella’s daughter.
“Doesn’t you invite me to dinner? Let’s go.” Lisa steps forward when she says, taking her arm in
Adam’s, looking at Aileen who is coming from far to near. Yes, it’s her! A scheming bitch!
Adam is obviously startled about Lisa’s earthshaking change, but when he sees Aileen he immediately
understands. If he guesses right, these two women have hatreds to each other, otherwise Lisa would
not change her attitude so quite.
“Adam, didn’t you promise me to go for dinner?” before Aileen has finished her words, she steps
forward to Adam, holding the other arm of Adam, with gentleness and pity in her eyes. Her face looks
cool when she sees Lisa.
“A, didn’t you say that you would going to have dinner with me? ” Lisa says casually. Since Aileen calls
him Adam, then she will call him A. That makes her seemingly closer to Adam than Aileen does.
When hearing what Lisa says, Aileen’s eyes are brimming with tears that seems they will shed anytime.
Looking at the poor beauty, except Adam, any man’s heart may become soft.
“You’d better go by yourself.” Adam says, shaking off Aileens’ hand. Compare to having dinner with a
woman like her, he’s prefer to staying together with Lisa. He knows that Aileen studied acting before,
he has to say that she acts well.
“Adam, how could you treat me like that? I...” Aileen cries.
Adam glances at Aileen, knitting his brows to a frown.
“You don’t have to act here. I don’t like that.” Adams says indifferently. Aileen loved him before, but she
likes to play treats. She was close to have sex with him at once. After that Adam has been tangled with
her but he can do nothing, after all, she is the person belongs to Alex Group.
Apparently Aileen doesn’t expect that Adam would talk to her like that. Her tears keep shedding.
Aileen stomps her feet, crying and running away. The moment she runs away, she hates Lisa more.
She swears she will let Lisa get out of her sight.
The moment Aileen runs away, Lisa also looses Adam’s arm. Since the woman she wants to take
revenge already gone, she doesn’t see it’s necessary to pretend.
Adam looks at Lisa who shakes off his arm. Did she just take advantage from him then dumped him?
There’s always him who dumps people. It’s the first time a woman dumps him. Was the secrete love
from her fake?
“Why don’t you chase after her?” seeing Aileen has run far away, and making sure that Adam can’t
catch up with her, Lisa asks. She’s afraid that Adam will chase after her, if he does, all she has done
will vanish.
Adam takes a look for the place where Aileen disappears, then looks at Lisa, noticing that Lisa is
becoming graceful and smart. She didn’t asked the question till now. Although he wants to chase after
Aileen, can he?
“Don’t you want me to invite you to dinner?” Adam stares at Lisa, seemingly wanting to see through
her. He’s confused about her.
Lisa smiles gracefully, and says,
“No need. I’m not hungry. I gotta go.” she says and turns away. She won’t take the man belongs to
Miya, although she loves him deeply, she has to let it go. This is her bottom line.
Adam knows what Lisa thinks, the moment she turns away he grabs her.
Lisa is shocked. What does the grabbing mean? She turns around and, two pairs of eyes stare at each
other.
Lisa looks at Adam who standing in front of her, there’s a moment she seems to see a touch of love
from his eyes, the unique love from him to her.
“Go to eat.” Adam says peacefully, but insistently. He loves Miya deeply, but he doesn’t know why he
insists on inviting Lisa to dinner.
Lisa is in a daze, her bright eyes become more widen.
Lisa is knitting her brows in a frown. She doesn’t want to have dinner with him now. She doesn’t want
go get so close to him. She’s already hurt so much, she doesn’t want to feel the pain anymore.
Looking at Lisa’s facial expression, he’s unhappy. She loved him so much before, now she becomes
another woman. It seems to her a dinner with him is so difficult. Doesn’t she love him anymore?
Thinking about this, Adam is getting dismayed. It looks like a woman who is supposed to stay beside
him has turned into an angel on wings, flying away. Until one day he wants touch her again, he fails.
“I think we should not go.” Lisa thinks for while before she says. It’s not easy for her to restrain herself.
She’s afraid that her heart will be broken again once she dates with him.
“Oh yeah?” Adam raises his brows unhappily. Is this woman rejecting his invitation? Is she the Lisa I
recognize? Is the gal who has always loving him secretly. Why does she reject him?
Lisa’s face doesn’t look very well, but she has to control herself. She can’t be with Adam. She can’t
give any hope to herself. If she does so, she won’t feel the ache so painful. Only by the way that can
she come out from the shadow of loving him.
“You’ve engaged with Miya. I won’t come to find you again. I don’t want to let Miya down.” She says
lightly. God knows how much encourage she takes to say it out.
There is a touch of gloss in the eyes of Adam. Now he knows what she thinks. But will Miya feel upset?
He laughs at himself bitterly. Miya doesn’t love him, not a bit. Will she care about him? No, she won’t.
“But what does it matter? We are friends.” Adam says, pushing Lisa to have dinner with him. Why
would Miya care about him? She loved Lance before, then loved Alex. Has been there a place for him
in her mind?
But this time, he wants to try once for himself. Although it is a sham marriage, he is satisfied. But it will
makes him lose Lisa, he doesn’t want it. He doesn’t know why he is nervous when Lisa says that she
won’t come to find him anymore.
Yes, in his subconsciousness, he still hopes that she will find him, but he knows clearly that Miya
always the only woman he loves. It won’t be changed. And he treats Lisa as a little sister ever since.
“Adam, it’s better that we become strangers in the future.” She loves him deeply. If they meet again,
she will feel the pain. That’s a kind of pain can’t be healed. So, she thinks she will not meet him again.
Maybe it will make her feel less painful, maybe she will try to forget about him.
Adam doesn’t say anymore, but he becomes very moody because of the words Lisa tells him. Will they
become strangers? Why does he feel the pain inside?
They go to the nearest restaurant, sitting face to face.
“What do you want to eat? My treat today.” Adam puts the menu in front of Lisa when he asks, full of
smiles in his eyes, and a bit of affection. Yes, that’s the shallow affection he hasn’t notice by himself.
But Lisa feels the subtle love when she sees Adam. She is shocked a bit and force herself to look
away. There is a touch of affection in his smiles. Is he in favor of her as well? Why does he treat her so
well suddenly, at the time she choose to leave him? How can she leave peacefully? She looks down to
the menu, as if she doesn’t have eye contact with Adam.
Although she pretends that she didn’t see him, she did. She seems still can feel her heartbeat. She
can’t resist to this man, she really can’t meet him in future.
