Beloved Old Lover

More than half a month has passed and Emily is sewing Kevin’s order.

He ordered so many that she estimated it would take a week to complete them all.

She also got used to the fact that at certain hours of the day, he would appear and sit there for an hour or two just to look at her.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

She wanted to say thank you because he had successfully made her facial skin have to be several layers thicker to resist everyone’s looks.

Today was a strange day because Kevin didn’t come even though it was almost five o’clock in the afternoon.

Emily felt both relieved and worried. She was worried because she didn’t know if anything would happen to him on the way. However, she couldn’t call him.

The pale afternoon sunlight slanted through the canopy of the trees, shining on her face. Her steps were unsteady on the bustling street. Her unstable mood caused her thoughts to drift far away.

Just like the previous days, after chatting with Daniel’s photo, she showered, had dinner, and then sat down at the sewing machine to continue making clothes for Kevin.

She wanted to quickly complete the order and deliver it to him so that he would no longer find excuses to come to see her.

She hoped he wouldn’t have the patience to continue ordering twenty more shirts.

Emily was so focused on sewing that she didn’t know that by the window, there was a man quietly watching her.

Today, he was busy all day. He wasn’t free until six o’clock in the afternoon and took the opportunity to drive over here. He secretly followed her and knew where she lived.

How could she not miss him when he missed her so much that he was so exhausted?

“Oh Mom…” Emily widened her eyes and cried out when she discovered someone was staring at her.

Immediately, she jumped out of the chair, closed the window, and turned off all the lights in the room.

The moment darkness enveloped everything, she also knelt, trembling and holding her shoulders.

Luckily he’s okay. It’s sad because he discovered her hiding place.

Outside, Kevin was almost motionless before Emily’s reaction. His hand raised several times but did not dare to knock on the door.

Finally, he sat down on the floor, leaning against the wall, looking out at the not-so-tall houses in the distance.

It wasn’t until ten o’clock at night that Emily gingerly opened the window to look outside. No longer seeing him, she suddenly felt lost.

The light came back on in the small room, but she was no longer in the mood to sew, so she cleaned everything up.

In the following days, the location and time of the appearance of the president of Unicons Group changed. He didn’t hang around the tailor’s shop anymore, but went to Emily’s room late in the afternoon and sat until it was dark.

“Emily, do you want to go have a barbecue with us this afternoon?” The seamstress in the next room poked her head in the door and asked.

“Okay.”

It’s been a long time since Emily went out to eat barbecue. Furthermore, she also wanted to take this opportunity to avoid Kevin.

He kept coming to her room and she couldn’t turn off the lights and lie still, so the whole time she was cutting and sewing, he kept standing outside the window looking in.

If even the windows are closed, the room is very stuffy.

The barbecue restaurant was very crowded in the afternoon, but because the girls called to reserve a table in advance, they still had a seat.

Crowded in a cramped space filled with smoke, every girl’s face was bright because they were able to eat their favorite food.

“In the end, that president didn’t come to urge Emily anymore, but it’s a pity, I just wanted to watch him forever.” The youngest girl in the group spoke up.

“Are his clothes almost finished yet?” Another girl asked.

“It’s almost done. Probably about three or four more days.” Emily replied.

After eating, the girls didn’t want to go home but went to sing karaoke. Anyway, compared to previous months, the girls’ revenue this month skyrocketed, largely thanks to customers coming to Emily to make clothes, but because she only has two hands, she introduces them to other tailors.

Of course, Emily is not disadvantaged because she will receive a portion of the referral fee according to the tailor group’s implicit regulations.

Inside the karaoke room, the music is sometimes loud, sometimes melodious, and peaceful. Outside, the rain fell more and more heavily.

In front of the motel room’s porch, Kevin was still patiently waiting for Emily. He glanced through the door and saw that the furniture in the room was still there.

He guessed that she had gone somewhere and he believed this was his chance to make her pity him and let him into the room to talk.

The wind became stronger and stronger, and the rain splashed sideways and vertically, drenching Kevin. He decided not to return to the car, just stood in front of the porch and waited.

It wasn’t until nine o’clock at night that the girl he was waiting for appeared.

She stepped out of the taxi, still wearing her tailor’s uniform. The umbrella in her hand wobbled every time the strong wind blew.

Kevin couldn’t hide his joy and emotion. He quickly walked down the stairs to wait for her.

In the white rain, the light of the dim high-pressure lamp was still enough for Emily to see the appearance of the man waiting for her.

Her steps faltered slightly but then she continued walking. Yes, at this moment, even when Kevin was in the most pathetic state, she still had to ignore him to extinguish the fire of love in him. If she was soft-hearted, things would get messy.

“Emily.” Kevin quickly grabbed Emily’s arm, holding it as soon as she passed him.

“President, please don’t bother me anymore. I’m so tired. You know I don’t like drinking alcohol, but today I drank because I was so stressed. It’s all thanks to you.”

Kevin felt how sad Emily’s voice mixed with the sound of the rain was at this moment and he also felt its destructive power.

He always wished to bring her happiness and warmth, not like this.

If he let go of her hand now, he would regret it to death. It’s just that her feelings towards him have changed a little, how can she say that she no longer loves him?

“Emily, I’m all wet, I’m cold, can you… can you let me go into the room to change my clothes? I see you’ve finished sewing some clothes.” He squeezed her hand even tighter and begged.

She turned her head and looked at the person next to her with blurred eyes.

His whole body was soaked, his hair, which had always been neatly combed, now fell, covering his intelligent forehead and thick eyebrows. Every cold wind that passed by made his lips tremble.

“Come on in.”

Emily shook her arm hard, freed herself from his hand, and walked up the stairs. The man smiled happily and quickly followed her.

When the door opened, she moved aside, tilted her head to signal him to come in, then took out a shirt and pants and gave them to him.

A bit of alcohol had seeped into her body, making her dizzy and had to quickly lean against the wall.

The sound of falling rain drowned out the sound of running water in the bathroom and when Kevin came out, she didn’t know because she was dreamily closing her eyes.

However, as soon as he touched her face, she suddenly woke up, pushed his hand away, and pointed to the door.

“Please go.”

“Emily, it’s raining heavily.”

“The umbrella is there, take it away.”

Kevin smiled painfully. He didn’t drink or get drunk, but her short sentences made his body want to collapse, no longer able to stand.

Seeing Kevin keep kneeling in front of her, she immediately stood up and opened the door, her intention to chase people out was very clear.

Kevin sighed and gradually walked towards Emily. However, he did not go out but reached out and pulled her back inside, locking the door.

Before Emily could realize what was happening, he pushed her against the wall and frantically kissed her on the lips.

The human body is always more honest than words, he doesn’t believe she no longer has feelings or emotions for him.

There was no chance for Emily to resist, her wrists were held tightly by him, behind her was a hard wall, the rain outside was very heavy, and no one could hear the sound even if they were in the next room.

The kiss became deeper and deeper, robbing her of almost all of her oxygen. In her heart, she was frantically begging him to stop. If he raped her tonight, this relationship would be completely distorted, and she would hate him all her life.

She wants him to forever be the best Kevin in her heart, not a love crazy person like this.

The moment Emily thought she was about to faint, their lips separated. She gasped, hastily regaining the lost air while the man continued to kiss her neck and his hands fumbled to unbutton her shirt.

When his strong kiss fell on her collarbone, her tears also flowed and her voice broke.

“Please… don’t… stop, stop.”

Her tears ran down his neck and into his mouth. Her weak hand tried to push him away in vain.

Kevin could feel the bitter salty taste. He slowly loosened her wrist, raised his head and looked up at her tear-stained face.

“Even when we’re this intimate, do you still not have feelings for me?” His voice was hoarse and a bit choked.

“Yes, I loathe you.”

His eyes became blurry, and for a moment, he couldn’t see the person in front of him clearly.

His head lowered again, burying it in her neck but no longer giving kisses to mark his sovereignty.

Emily felt her neck getting wet. This warm and wet feeling was not her tears. She knew he was crying and her heart was completely broken at this moment, she was destroying it herself.

Loud sounds echoed and she didn’t even dare open her eyes. Kevin continuously punched the wall as a way to help him relieve this excruciating pain.

“Okay, I promise you, from now on, I won’t bother you anymore. I go my way, you go yours.”

After saying that, he let her go and turned away quickly.

Emily slowly slid down, sitting motionless on the floor, watching his disheveled figure disappear in the misty rain.

When she narrowed her vision, she saw long drops of blood on the floor. There were also many blood stains on the wall in the shape of curled knuckles.

“Sorry, Kevin, sorry, I’m sorry…”

Her pitiful cries mixed with the sound of the rain and the rumble of thunder in the sky. Tonight’s rain will wash away all that’s left of this love affair.

The wind blew through the open door, messing up her hair, and dropping half-cut pieces of fabric, and the scene in the room became even more dreary.

When Kevin got into the car, his whole body was soaked. His hands tightened on the steering wheel, revealing blue veins under his pale skin due to the cold.

He laughed like he was crying, like a crazy man. He felt ridiculous because, until this moment, he still didn’t believe she stopped loving him.

She still missed his younger brother and cherished that photo, so why did she quickly forget her feelings for him for so many years?
