“WHAT?”
This time, I could not control myself. I got up from the chair. All the people around us in the coffee shop looked at me.
But my attention was on Max, He was calm, as if he knew I would react like this.
“Max, I–I don’t know what’s wrong with you.”
“Everything is fine with me.”
“Do you even know what you are saying?”
“Yes, I do.”
I shook my head in disbelief. “I can’t.”
After saying that, I turned around only to find that the others, including Liana, as well as the customers, were staring at me.
I took off my apron and walked over to the counter.
“I am going outside for some time. I will work extra hours at night.”
After placing the apron on the counter, I exited the coffee shop. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
The moment I stepped out of the store, I started walking. I was completely clueless about where to go.
Tears enveloped my eyes once again.
How could anyone possibly ask me to be his girlfriend?
I was a divorced woman. I had children. If my children were here with me, I would have given it some thought because I was required to give them a father’s name.
But now, they were with their father.
My life was a living hell. I could not live my life like an ordinary woman. There is no way that anyone could like me. I had no right to destroy anyone’s life, either.
At the time, the stream of thoughts that were going through my head was interrupted by the sound of a horn.
My steps halted as I turned to my side.

I saw Max’s car. The window by the driver’s seat rolled down. Max’s face appeared from within the car.
“Natalia, listen to me.”
I shook my head. “No, I can’t. Didn’t I tell you? I can’t.”
I started to walk again. From behind, I could hear the sound of the door closing. But it could not stop me from moving forward.
After a few seconds, a pair of hands wrapped around my wrist made me turn around.
I looked at Max, whose expression had changed.
“Why can’t you understand? You need to move on. You have a life, too.”
I yanked my hand away from him. “So you came here to show me sympathy by helping me move on with my life?”
My voice and words were both sarcastic.
“No. I didn’t mean that,” he replied.
“Then what do you mean? Why did you even ask that of me? Why would you want a woman who has been divorced and who has already given birth to two children? You are a young man, an eligible bachelor that every girl wishes to be with. How can you ask me to be your girlfriend?”
He stared at me without replying. My words left him speechless. That was because I told the truth.
“Max, you should not say such thin-”
“I like you, Natalia.”
His interruption made me mad at him. “Like? How can you grow to like someone after only two days?”
He released his grip on my hand and responded,
“I liked you the day I went to your pack for the very first time. In fact, I agreed to give your pack my cure because it was you who wanted it. When we met at the club in your pack, I was waiting for you there. I was aware that you would show up there. My intention was to simply meet you, which is why I went to your pack.”
My lips trembled. “W–What?”

He heaved a sigh of defeat, as if he were unable to conceal his feelings any longer.
“Natalia, I have had feelings for you for a long time.”
