Once upon a time, she became everything to him. His emotions, whether happy or sad, seemed to revolve around her only.
My father once told him, âPutting all your emotions into one person is like gambling. If you win, it could lead to a lifetime of happiness. But if you lose, it could be a disaster.â
And now⦠is he beyond redemption?
He thought she would at least believe him, but she easily believed that he was involved in the kidnapping case, even one of the masterminds behind it.
Her lack of trust made him feel like he was falling into an abyss.
He realized that, for him, putting all his emotions on her was a point of no return.
So, he wanted to leave, to get away from here. He was afraid that if he didnât leave, he wouldnât be able to control himself from seeing her, and then⦠perhaps his pain would only grow stronger.
âDo you really want to go abroad?â His father asked him this last night when he told his parents about his plan to go abroad.
âYes, I want to go abroad,â he replied. âAs for the kidnapping case, I will come back when itâs time to testify.â
âWhy do you suddenly want to go abroad? Is it related to Veronica?â Grace asked. After all, today her son went out with Veronica to the Barlow family, but when he came back, he was alone.
âMom, this is between me and her. I donât want anyone to interfere, so you donât need to disturb her or say anything to her. Tomorrow, I will leave Emerald City. I want to have a peaceful time outside for a while.â
âButâ¦â
âMum, Iâm not a kid anymore. I know exactly what Iâm saying and doing!â
After he said this, his mother didnât say anything else.
The plane began to taxi and was about to take off. Jasperâs finger hovered over his phone screen, and finally, he deleted âVeronicaâ from his contacts.
From now on, she was no longer his Veronica!
And he didnât have to be in so much pain anymore!
If she canât trust him and canât truly see him as the most important person, only treating him like a little brother, then it will only cause him more and more pain.
His emotions will only become more and more out of control, and may evenâ¦
Therefore, completely cutting her off may be the best thing for him or for her.
âVeronica, you are no longer the most important person to me!â he murmured, closing his eyes.
The plane soared into the sky.
The plane soared into the sky.
Sometimes, parting ways can be surprisingly easy!
When Veronica opened her eyes and woke up, she saw a white ceiling above her.
Looking around, she realized that she was lying in a hospital room.
Hospital? How did she end up in the hospital?
Just then, the door to the hospital room opened and Jasper walked in. When he saw that Veronica had woken up, he breathed a sigh of relief. âVeronica, thank goodness youâre awake,â he said.
âWhat happened to me earlier?â she murmured, but her throat was dry and had a burning sensation.
âYou had a fever. The doctor just gave you a shot to bring it down. Take some medicine later and you should be fine,â Jasper replied.
âIâm sorry to have caused you trouble,â Veronica said.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and her face changed. âBy the way, what about Mason?â
