On the other side of the phone, there was a slight, thin sobbing, like a ghost in the middle of the night,
and she did not speak a word but cried.
Alan's eyes were cold. He had no patience. All his patience was given to the woman in bed. He hung
off the call and set the mobile phone to vibrate, he put it on the bedside table and went back to bed with
his beloved woman in his arms. It was a critical time. If it wasn't for the fear of missing an important
call, he really wanted to turn it off.
But it wasn't long after the woman made another persistent call, and he caught it in a rage. "what do
you want"
The person called him just sobbed, she finally willing to speak, she grumbled, "Alan, Are you so
impatient to connect my phone?"
" I don't want to disturb Oliver's sleep if nothing's wrong." Alan said it coolly, he thought he could never
be mistaken in his judgment, but what had happened just slapped him twice in the face.
"Alan, is she really so good? We are friends from childhood, it’s over 20 years, you just meet her for
one year, is our friendship worse than hers? Tell me, what is she better than me?"
Alan looked down at the woman in his arms, he got up quietly and went out onto the balcony. “it doesn't
matter if she's good or bad. What matters is that I love her.”
"I have done many things for you these years, don't you have a little touched?” She is not reconciled,
the result of years of hard work was so easily taken away, how could she admit it？.
"What you've done is enough to wipe out any gratitude I've ever had for you. You just should take care
of you and don’t do anything bad to her, otherwise, you know what will happen” He warned her, if not
for the sake of the Hoyle family and the Meyer family, she will be killed on the wedding day.
"Alan, aren't you afraid to destroy what you have?"
"Are you threatening me? You can fool Oliver with that, but not me." He, Alan could got the things he
achieved, so he also could hold the things he had.
Business, he wanted it
Woman, he wanted it.
He can't protect a woman without his business. No woman, there was no one share with him, so, he
wanted both his business and woman.
"I'm not really threatening you, Alan. I just don't think she's good enough for you, even if you don't love
me."
" It’s not up to you whether she deserve me. I like her, that’s enough."
"Have you ever liked me? None at all?" Ophelia groaned again and sobbed softly.
Alan said coldly, with no pity in his eyes. “I have answered you five years ago. Do not ask such a
question, you should remember who you are.”
"But why do you say you want to marry me and give me so much hope? Don't you know how happy I
was when you told me you would marry me? I thought, I have been foolishly waiting for you and finally
moved your cold heart, I can finally be your wife. I also tell myself, I want to be your good wife, I will
change my whole temper and shortcomings. You are fastidious about eating, since childhood you have
hated the cooking fumes in the kitchen, so I went to learn cooking, I want to take good care of your
stomach. Mother always said that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. But you didn't even
let me get your stomach. You will not touch me, even if I stand before you naked, you will not look at
me. You said you don't like crazy woman, I am capricious, perverted and unreasonable, but for you, I
learn to be a lady, learn to become quiet. They said, you are no longer be yourself since you have
changed for a man, but for you, I want to change, I am willing to change. But why you just don't love
me, you agreed to marry me, but you just gave me a so great embarrassment in the wedding. Do you
have any idea how much I hated you and you ruined me! But in the end, I found that I still loved you,
although you were so unkind to me, I still loved you.” Ophelia finished her words in one breath and she
was already sobbing over there.
She talked so much and cried so much, that she could hardly held her breath, but Alan was still
unmoved. “you have ruined yourself.”
When she viciously forced Oliver out five years ago and then orchestrated the alleged engagement
party with his mother in front of the media, she should have known that one day it would all come back
with interest.
"Alan. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that. I just didn't want to lose you.” Ophelia cried.
"You have done bad things too much, you just don’t want to lose everything willingly." Alan read her
mind and ended the call, he blacklisted the number.
