  John found himself unable to retort. He was not married, but he needed someone to take care of his physical needs. “Aqua, listen to me. I never had any feelings for them. I only like you.”Aqua had thought that her heart would hurt, but after she was faced with the truth, she found it as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. “Mr. Frank, that’s your personal business. It has nothing to do with me. I’ve thought about plenty of things over this period of time. My parents got divorced and left me with your family. I’m thankful for both of you being with me, but it’s not love that I felt for you.“It’s the same for Will. We’ve gotten used to living together, and it’s just a psychological habit that’s making us want to stay with each other.”She had kept those things in her heart and thought that she would never say them out loud. To think that she would end up being able to say them so easily. Aqua smiled. “But I have to thank you. If neither you nor Will had forced me

  It was the end of April, but John still pulled his coat tighter around himself. A day before he left, Will suddenly came to him and demanded he hand over Aqua after he brought her back. “Aren’t you worried about me telling the press just who killed Samara? What’s going to happen to Aqua by then?”Will’s face was covered in stubble because he had been hiding in his basement to avoid being investigated. He did not eat and sleep well and looked ten years older. “At the very least, you should let me see her.”“Alright.”John did not think that meeting her once would make Will a threat to him. Will was already a wanted man. Aqua would not choose someone who had taken a life. As he thought about that, he drove to the orchard. It had been over two months, and he was back to this place. John touched the ring in his pocket and knocked on the door. “Coming!”The joyful answer made him delighted. It was Aqua. Was she happy that he was here?But at the moment the door op

  Aqua finished the apple pie and decided to get to the bottom of the matter. But when she went downstairs, Lily was already gone. Mike was cleaning up in the kitchen. He had an apron around his waist and was washing the dishes. As he held a plate in one hand, he used the other to spin it as water flowed down. Suddenly, Aqua remembered how he had pulled her hand to feel his abs. She had originally wanted to delete the photo with the abs, but after sliding her finger around the screen, she chose to save the picture instead. Whenever she did not want to study, she would sneak a peek, and all her sleepiness would disappear.She was not one who indulged in the pleasures of the flesh; she just thought that it would be a waste to not admire those abs. Since Mike was rich and generous, even if she stared at his abs, they would not disappear. And after listening in to their conversation and hearing Lily say that he liked her, Aqua could not continue pretending to be ignorant any

  After learning about this, John contacted the social media platform to ban her live-streaming. Samara knew that this meant John was willing to pay a price to silence her. She was only testing the waters. If she was cornered, she was going to expose the fact that John and Aqua liked each other, despite their age gap. John said nothing and just transferred 5 million dollars to her. Just as she walked out of the bank happily, a car charged straight into her without ever honking or bothering to swerve. Samara’s eyes flew wide open in disbelief and fear. But she could not avoid it. Her body flew into the air before she crashed back down. Since she was famous, news of her death spread like wildfire, but the news soon faded into obscurity. John checked his phone and made a mark at the end of April on his calendar. He used that period of time to make some adjustments of the company’s businesses, because he intended to move abroad. Three years ago, he had managed to bring Aq

• Time Brews Longing   Chapter 15 Remembered How Good She Was

  As of late, whenever John remembered Aqua, his heart hurt. He only learned after he went to the hospital that he was suffering from heart palpitations due to mental stress. The best outcome for him at that moment was for Samara and Will to fight against each other until they were both heavily wounded. Then he would swoop in to reap the rewards. After he returned home, he lay in bed but found himself unable to sleep. For some reason, he went to Aqua’s room and slept in her bed. The next day, he received news that Will had been arrested. The company responded quickly and posted an official statement saying that Will had been fired a long time ago, and his actions had nothing to do with the company. But Ivan, Will’s father, kept calling John, so much so that he interrupted his meal time. He asked John to get Will out of jail. “I’m sorry, Ivan, but there’s concrete evidence of Will striking Samara. I can’t get him out.”Will sighed. “John, we’re all smart people here. I can

• Time Brews Longing   Chapter 14 She Hated Them

  But Samara was not going to disappear without a trace, just like that. After all, she had tasted what it felt like to have fame and glory. How could she accept falling from the top of the pyramid again?After she left John’s company, she joined its rival company and became its executive. During a party, in order to take revenge, she cried and publicly said that her ex had cheated on her with some other employee in the company. She also said that her ex was her former superior, Will Lane. She then said that she had not dared to go public because she could not afford to get on Will’s bad side. She also did it because she could tell that Will and John were rivals. Not just that, they were rivals in love. So, she was sure that John would just watch by the side and not do anything about it. He might even push things along. Just as she expected, after news about this spread, Will was described as a piece of trash who went out with two women at the same time. Even Aqua was drag
