Chapter 397

ผู้เขียน: Millie Bridge
Even though I had already expected him to come up with an excuse not to show up, I still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when I actually heard his response.

When I decided to trust someone, I tended to do so wholeheartedly. After the time we spent together over the past two years, I genuinely saw him as a friend and a good person.

But now…

For a moment, I couldn't help but feel confused, unsure of how to trust others anymore.

I no longer knew what was real and what was fake in this world. I didn't understand how someone who once seemed so kind could turn out like this.

I stayed silent for a long time.

Just as Gideon was about to say that he could come over if I really wanted him to, I spoke calmly, without any hint of anger. "Alright. You should do your work first, it's more important. Call me when you're done."

Upon hearing this, he let out a sigh of relief. "Okay, wait for me. I'll be there as soon as I'm done here!"

I hummed in response before hanging up the cal

    "I could no longer believe you," I said. "Honestly, you're making me doubt if the person I thought I knew was the real you."My words made Gideon's face grow even paler.But he still persisted, saying seriously, "Emi, I know that no matter what I say now, you won't believe me. But it's true! I truly love you! "I only did that because I wanted to love you even better. I thought that if I carried the guilt from my mistake, I could treat you better and love you even more."He continued, "Really. That was what I thought! Please, believe me just this once, okay?"I didn't say a word and just stared at him. It stopped him from saying anything else.In the end, he laughed bitterly. "It's because you don't love me, right? If it were Irvin, you would have given him another chance. You forgave him again and again after how he treated you. "But I only wanted to love you better, yet you're so unforgiving. You have no idea how happy I was when you told me you wanted to marry me. You don'

    I didn't say a word as I opened the photos William had sent me yesterday and showed them to Gideon.The moment he saw the photos, the color drained from his face. He was smart enough to understand everything without me needing to explain.The more he realized, the paler he became. His body even began to tremble uncontrollably.After struggling for a moment, he looked up at me. It seemed like he wanted to say something, but no words came out, as if he had lost all strength and means to speak. He knew me well. He knew that once I found out, I would never marry him.But he couldn't accept it. He was so close to getting what he had always wanted, only to lose it like this.So he forced himself to calm down and looked at me seriously. "Emi, I know I shouldn't have done something like that before our marriage. But I did it for our future. "I wanted to fully devote myself to loving you. I wanted us to start our marriage on equal footing, so I made that mistake deliberately."He wasn

  • Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!   Chapter 398

    I just instinctively trusted Noah. He didn't seem like that kind of person.William had never been great at explaining himself. Seeing how much I trusted Noah, he didn't explain any further and simply said, "I think Noah is your best option. If you're still planning to use marriage to end things with Irvin, I hope you'll consider him."…Cordelia was desperate to know why I, after being so sure of my decision, backed out at the last moment.She left her fiancé, who had travelled all the way here, to wait for me at my place. As soon as I got home and before I could even put my bag down, she rushed over to me."Darling, what happened? Why did you suddenly change your mind?" she asked.I told her everything, what I saw at the bar and everything that happened.When I was done, her expression was so complicated that it was difficult to describe.It took her a long while to say anything."Fuck. Men really are all the same, trash! I thought he'd be a good husband, since he had loved

    I didn't know if Gideon was already getting busy. Normally, he would answer right away whenever I called him, but this time the phone rang for quite a while before he finally picked up."Emi." His voice was still as sweet and tender as ever, just like usual.However, knowing that he was probably holding another woman in his arms while speaking to me in that same gentle tone, it stirred up a mix of indescribable emotions in me. Maybe men and women were just inherently different.As a woman, I believe that if you truly love someone, you wouldn't want to hold anyone else.But Gideon was different. He claimed to love me so much that he felt like he was living his dream, yet he could still hold another woman in his arms. Or maybe, he never truly loved me. Maybe it was just an obsession.He came from a good family where he was used to getting everything he wanted. Perhaps the fact that he couldn't have the woman he fell in love with at first sight made him want me more. The more h

  • Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!   Chapter 395

    I only saw Gideon as a friend, so I wasn't very emotionally hurt by the fact that he was looking for another woman. After all, I didn't love him.I just…I just didn't know how to describe what I was feeling right now.Maybe I was just bad at judging people.Before this, I trusted Shaun so much. I saw him as my confidant and believed he was a good man.But he had an ulterior motive behind his kindness. He didn't hesitate to stab me in the back.Now, I had thought Gideon was a decent man and that marrying him would give me the simple and fulfilling life I wanted. But he turned out to be someone completely different from what I imagined. I didn't mean that he couldn't be with another woman or anything like that. This would be my second marriage, so it was normal for him to have had previous relationships. I wouldn't care about that at all if he hadn't claimed to love me and if our marriage had simply been transactional.But now that we're getting married the next day, and afte

  • Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!   Chapter 394

    Thinking about how we'd be getting married the next day and officially becoming husband and wife, I grabbed the car keys from the table and drove to pick Gideon up from the bar.Just as I arrived and was about to push open the door to the private room, I suddenly heard a voice from inside."Gideon, aren't you marrying the woman you've loved for ten years tomorrow? You've always been so modest, never messing around with women. But now, right before marrying the love of your life, you're looking for a woman? And specifically a virgin?"I had already slightly opened the door, just enough to see Gideon's expression.I watched as he raised his glass and took a deep swig of alcohol. Then he said, "I really, really love her so much. You have no idea how excited and overwhelmed I was when she said she wanted to marry me. These past two days have felt like a dream!"Hearing this, his friend looked even more confused. "If you love her that much, why are you hooking up with another woman bef

  • Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!   Chapter 393

    While Gideon's parents and I had gotten along well before, back then, I didn't have a real connection with them.We merely had a business relationship, and people were naturally polite and cordial to their business partners. But if this partner were to become part of their family? It would be a different story.Gideon was an only child from a very well-off family, after all. Plus, this would be his first marriage. I, on the other hand, was a divorcée. So, the fact that his parents were so kind to me only made me feel even more certain that marrying him was the right choice.Our family backgrounds were comparable, and our financial situations were on par. Gideon and I also had similar lifestyles and habits, and we had known each other for years. All this merely reinforced my decision and kept my mind from wandering.Now, all we had to do was wait until City Hall opened on Monday so we could register our marriage.I told Cordelia about this plan. Compared to me marrying some random

    The silence in the car grew so thick that it was almost frightening.Just as I was about to apologize to Gideon, he apologetically said, "I'm sorry, Emi. I was too excited and happy that I acted on impulse."Before I could say anything, he seemed to read my mind and continued, "You don't need to feel burdened. I know better than anyone everything that has happened between you and Irvin."I know you still haven't let go of him yet. I'll wait for the day when that happens, and for when you can truly accept me."Gideon claimed that liking me was his own choice, and he never expected it to be reciprocated. Despite this, no one truly wanted their love to remain unrequited.I stared at him, unsure of what to say. So, in the end, I got out of the car without saying anything and left.I didn't know if the day would come when I could fully let go of Irvin, nor could I force myself to stop caring about him. Even so, I needed to force myself to accept Gideon.We were about to become husban
