Chapter 632
When they met again, they felt as if they were separated from each other for a century.
In fact, Anthony had come because he saw the stall selling roasted sweet potatoes. In the past, when they were together, Victoria liked going to street shops. She liked trying new things, and she also enjoyed traditional snacks. She said that they stimulate her inadvertently, so she especially liked going to distinctive places...
Back in the day, whenever she was free, she liked to hold his hand and run around. Ever since that incident happened, she wouldn't pick up his calls nor meet him.
He didn't expect to see her there, so he called out excitedly, "Kimmy?"
Turning around, Victoria headed towards the other side of the road. Her attitude had obviously softened, and her mood was low! Behind her, Anthony chased after her. One step after another, he followed in her footsteps.
He didn't know how long he had been walking. At a corner, he walked past her and blocked her way, "Kimmy, can you give me a chance? Just pretend that nothing has happened. Let's start over, alright?"
Looking up, Victoria's heart suddenly ached. She pursed her lips. If everything could really be erased, would she still wake up with a start by a nightmare in the middle of the night?
What had happened, had already happened!
He seemed to have sensed her emotional fluctuations. As he raised his hand, he gripped her shoulders and slowly held her in his arms.
"Kimmy, it was just an accident! Do you want to give up on your eternal happiness just because of an accident? I know it's too late for me to say anything now, but believe me, I'd never thought of hurting you! If I can, I'd rather exchange my life for yours... I won't do it again! Give me another chance, alright?"
"Kimmy, please give me a chance so that I have time to atone for my sins, alright?"
Hearing the guilt and how apologetic his words were, Victoria's mind was also in a mess. She didn't know where to start, but within the chaos of her emotional state, she heard a familiar voice ringing in her mind.
"Don't get overly fixated on the past and lose focus on your current life, don't punish yourself for other people's mistakes." "Your first love is always the most unforgettable.
To be able to marry our first love must be the happiest thing in the world!"
"What a blessing it is! If they miss each other, then it'll be for a lifetime!"
The sweet scene of the two people in the past constantly appeared in her mind. The image of him doing heroic deeds, doing kind acts, and these thoughts intertwining with his evil deeds...
Victoria was absolutely confused, "Why?"
All the signs seemed to tell her that the man in front of her was a good person, kind, and passionate. He was not only her lover, but also a decent person!
He was worth entrusting her life to!
However, the accident at that time was like a thorn in the softest spot of her heart. Every time she thought of the dark and bone-piercing pain, her heart would tremble!
Her heart began to become entangled, "Was this an accident or an inevitable turn? An interlude or a twist?"
She was not sure!
At that moment, she couldn't take it in nor let it go. For the first time, she stood still and didn't know where to go. Hence, she stood, not moving for a long time. She didn't push him away nor make a sound.
Her attitude was uncertain. For a time, she was flurried, and her heart ached!
After a long while, she shook her head and pushed him away. However, her tone was not as sharp and stern as before. Instead, it carried a hint of confusion, "I don't know..."
"Give me some time! Let me think about it!"
She had never thought that the pure and docile feelings would completely subvert before it bloomed and bore fruit. Hence, to Victoria, the so-called love and marriage became more of a pessimistic and disappointing illusion. Happiness had long become a mirage in her heart.
"Alright! I'll wait for you! You'll be mine, no matter how long it'll take!"
His hand fell on the ring on his neck several times. In the end, Anthony still didn't take it out. He was afraid that it would be too hasty and might backfire, but that day, he was overjoyed. The smile on his face couldn't be covered!
Turning around, he went to buy another roasted sweet potato. He carefully selected a small, soft, and yellow one for her, switching it with the one she had in her hand that was turning a little cold.
"You like these street snacks the most! Every time I see you holding snacks on the street, you're not as elegant as you are. But later I found that you re more down-to-earth! I can't even describe how adorable you are..."
Compared to others who put on
pretentious acts by having small bites in lavish restaurants and coming out of it with an empty
stomache, he really liked that s
was frank and casual when she ate. He didn't need to act in a
gentlemanly and dignifiedner.
When he was hungry, he could eat whatever he wanted! All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Anthony lowered his head and took a bite of the sweet potato. However, his mouth was filled with bitterness.
If she didn't have such a bottom line, and if she was like other women who only cared about his feelings, could that be completely erased because of his tolerance at that moment?
In reality, he was still holding a grudge in his heart! However, he knew very well that he had no right to feel bad about it. He could only bear it in his heart. All of that was caused by his incompetence! He had no other choice but to swallow it in silence!
Brutally, he took another big bite!
Holding the sweet potatoes in hand, Victoria also took a light bite. The same indescribable bitterness could vaguely be felt by her as well. The two of them could walk shoulder to shoulder just like before, but it would feel completely different from before. Something had changed between the two of them.
The two walked along the two streets and finished more than half of the food. Then, they turned around and walked back. However, they didn't talk much the long way, not because they didn't want to, but because they didn't know what to say.
Even if it was just a walk, no matter if both of them were feeling happy or uncomfortable, the two of them couldn't help but feel sour in their heart.
At an intersection, in a trance, Victoria didn't even look at the traffic light. She almost rushed straight onto the road, but Anthony pulled her back. "Be careful! It's still a red light!"
With a pull, her hair and scarf flew. His breathing was rapid as he pulled her back and hugged her nervously Instinctively, he tied up her hair and the scarf. He inadvertently looked down and saw that her small hands, which were holding the sweet potatoes, had reddened, so he took the opportunity to hold her hands and rub them.
"Why aren't you wearing gloves?"
Clearly feeling her dry and cracked hands for the cold winter, he placed her hands in his as he asked, "You didn't bring any hand cream either?"
He took the convenience bag from her hand at the intersection under the lamp and put her hands into his pockets. He saw her frozen red ears by accident, raised his hand and helped her loosen her hair again, rubbing her cold ears.
"Next time when you aren't wearing a hat, remember to wear earmuffs. Your little ears will be frozen!"
At the intersection, Trevor had just turned the steering wheel and saw the scene...
