Chapter 124 His first reaction was to question me, âDid you touch my computer? Didnât I say it was full of workârelated files? How could you do that? Donât I have any privacy?â
Realizing that he was getting too agitated, Antonio took a deep breath and was about to explain.
were I interrupted him with a sneer, âYou busy spending your stag night crying in Mandyâs arms. Your team leader was in urgent need of the files but couldnât reach you, so he called me. Do you think I want to touch your computer? I feel sick after seeing all those photos, okay?â
It was the first time in the eight years of our relationship that I had turned cold and resolute towards him. Antonio, however, thought I was just jealous and making a fuss.
When he spoke again, his tone softened, with a hint of appeasement.
He said, âI can explain the things on the computer. I just stored them for so long that I forgot to delete them.
âAs for the wedding, you know I was dumped by her before, and I just said that in front of my friends to save myself some face. I didnât expect you to misunderstand.
âTrust me, from the moment I promised to marry you, she was no longer in my heart. Taking care of her was just out of friendship. After knowing her return, I just wanted to settle the past with her.â
To me, his explanation was like an excuse for his overstepping behaviors.
I deepened my sneer and said coldly, âIs that so? Antonio, are you saying 1040 that you have been in a relationship with me for eight years without ever settling your past with her? What am I, a broom to clean up your memories?
âI donât even remember how many times you have left me behind for her, and I donât need your explanations anymore. Your actions are the best answer. Did you not find it funny when you said all that?
âYou have never cared about whether Iâm sad, disappointed, or to leave. What are you doing here now, then? To hear me say goodbye to you face-
toâface?â
His face gradually turned pale as I questioned him. He moved his lips but couldnât say a word.
As I turned to leave, he slowly said, âI can delete everything on the computer right now.
âWhat if I say I was wavering at first, but when I heard you didnât go to the wedding, I understood my own feelings and came here to get you back? Can you give me another chance?â
I didnât turn back or say a word, just walking away steadily under his hopeful gaze. This time, he didnât stop me.
Meanwhile, I asked myself, âCould I give our relationship another chance?â
I had asked myself this question countless times after Mandy appeared, and actually, I had given him countless chances.
However, he just kept letting me down. I didnât want to repeat the same mistake.
After returning to my apartment for a quick shower, I heard a knock at the door. Upon opening the door, I almost bumped into a large insulated 10.410 Chapter 124 lunch box.
Antonioâs sunny smile appeared from behind it.
âI heard that the food here is not tasty at all, so I made this especially for you. Have a taste while itâs still hot, okay?â
This was the first time he had ever smiled so happily in front of me. It was also the first time he had cooked for me.
I was stunned for a moment, and when I snapped back to my senses, I Ålammed the door shut. Unexpectedly, he didnât get angry but just patiently continued to knock gently.
I slid down the door and thought in disappointment, âWhy didnât he love me when we were still together? I donât need it anymore.â
He knocked for half an hour, and I sat on the floor for that long as well. Then I heard a phone ring outside my door.
It seemed to be another call from the hospital Mandy was in.
His patience gradually exhausted, and his voice became irritable, âHavenât I made it clear? If sheâs sick, go to a doctor! The car accident wasnât my fault. My wedding was ruined, and Iâm really busy with something important now!â
