It Was Never Love 76
I grabbed my umbrella and walked through the alley. When I got back to my car, I was still depressed and stressed. I had never imagined that my parents could have treated Melaine this way in the past by forcibly removing her kidney.After all, she had only been a girl.At that time, she had been a girl my age. However, the treatment she had received was worlds apart from mine due to our backgrounds.The assistant could sense that I was feeling low. While driving, he said with concern: “Mrs. President, did something happen?”I shook my head and said, “It’s okay.”Even now, as I stood at the door and looked at that woman dressed in a flowered skirt, I had felt a strange kind of panicky fear inside, since she had looked just like Melaine.Truth be told, I didn't understand my own fear. Maybe he still felt the guilt inside.I had asked Andrews if she had been Melaine.However, Andrews had denied it, saying: “Melaine is abroad.”That woman looked like Melaine, but she wasn't Melaine. Inste

When I left the infirmary, I didn't see any vision of André on the fourth floor. I rubbed my chin gently and thought hard. Could he have left sooner?Could André have caught one, am I rushing here just to catch a glimpse of Karen?When I went down the stairs to leave, I saw that a man was standing at the entrance and I immediately understood that he was waiting for me there.By this time, the rain had become considerably lighter and there was just a drizzling snow outside.André was wearing a thin outer coat over a white shirt. Cream? On his wrist, he wore a Rolex watch.He was especially tall and his bangs had been neatly styled to reveal a smooth, acne-free forehead. At that point, he was holding onto a huge black umbrella and his eyes were shining as brightly as a thousand stars.His eyes sparkled purely. They were exactly the same pair of pure eyes that I used to look at. Of course, the owner of these eyes hasn't belonged to me for some time now. I had fallen in love with another

“Street Where Wind Resides.” It was a melancholic song and was not well known. Very few people would be able to compose, sing, roll with it unless they were true lovers of the song.Even so, I came and my strength was demonstrated through the performance of this song. Because of that, the public all voted for me.I did not lose. Such as. The waiter. Asking for more competition, the man dressed authentically, in a classic suit, slowly raised his hand. He smiled with a sheepish smile and said, “I want to challenge you.”As predicted, he was probably the cafe owner who waited for The Final Winner to appear before showing off his capabilities. I didn't feel worried at all. First of all, it still was. Debatable whether or not I would lose. Furthermore, there was also André here as support. If I lost.In terms of his piano ability, I had never doubted him.I played another piece, a Modern piece this time. Meeting the middle-aged man chose to play a chopim piece. Clearly, he was a hidden pro

I sat down next to him and wrapped my arms around his neck, smiling. “I’m not a fool at all!”I had just confronted the cafe owner, after all.Upon hearing this, Carlos took a deep breath, as if he was preparing to ask something. Suddenly, he changed to a firm expression “Did you meet André?”I was quite surprised. “How did you understand?”“You have his scent on you.”Carlos had an extremely cold expression and I knew I couldn't mention the coffee incident with André without angering him more. Upon seeing this, I responded carefully, “Before leaving, I decided to visit Karen in the hospital. He was there and we spoke a few brief words before I returned to my assistant.”I didn't want to lie to him on purpose, however, I also didn't want him to get angry any more.He asked suspiciously, “André really made the effort to visit Karen?”I continued with the lie. “Yes, I think he eventually gave in.”Upon hearing this, Carlos looked at me solemnly for a long period of time before respondin

I rubbed my chin in thought and said, “I’ll take note of that from now on.”“Mm, have a good rest.”Carlos dismissed me.I raised my eyes to look at him and asked, “You?”“I still have unfinished work to sort out.”Afraid of disturbing him, I got up and went up the stairs back to the room, I lay in bed for a long time, but insomnia got the better of me. Even after tossing and turning for hours, I couldn't fall asleep. At 3 am. Carlos entered the room.When he saw me glance at the ceiling, he spoke dubiously. "Just woke up? Or haven’t you been able to sleep yet?”I shook my head sadly and said, “I have insomnia.”Carlos took off his shirt, revealing his taut, muscular chest. He came to where I was and held me to his chest, asking: “Have you had insomnia often?”“Yes, especially recently.”Hearing this he got lost in his thoughts for a while, rubbing my head gently and speaking in a warm, frisky tone, he said: “Sleep well, I’m here now.”As usual, I closed my eyes and tried to fall asle
It Was Never Love 82
When I saw Lucy, her mental state was much better. I told her that I had met Michelle at the entrance, she frowned and said dismissively, “I also see her at the hospital often recently. She has been bothering the doctor a lot and asking for some things that I couldn't understand what she was, she seems like a psychopath."Psycho?"Michelle wouldn't really be crazy because Carlos dumped her, I don't think so.“Did she make a scene at the hospital?” I asked feeling curious.“No, but she kept screaming that Melaine wasn’t going to lie.”“Melaine?” I asked in disbelief.How did Michelle find out about Melaine?“Yes, I don’t know who she is!” Lucy sighed and continued. “That woman is really disgusting. She used to be very annoying, but when I look at her crazy behavior now, I feel sorry for her! But whenever I think about the fact that she once ran over José with a car, that merciful thought just crosses my mind.”Lucy, like me, felt sorry for the current Michelle.In the end it was, it wa

I stood still and didn't know what to do. I felt like I was going back to the past. The distance between me and him had suddenly become very large.All my happiness from the last two days seemed to be fake.“When are you returning from abroad?”I heard Carlos's impatient voice, it seemed like the woman on the other end of the phone was very important to him.I felt very sad in my heart, and I felt so deceived that I wanted to cry. He did not treat me at all with attention. I really regretted the fact that I promised you.Why had I agreed to be with him?“Okay, I’ll pick you up in a few days.”Carlos' words were like a sharp knife stabbing me in the heart. I quickly returned to my company.Sitting in the office, I was a little lost. Suddenly I felt like I had lost the entire world. At this time, my assistant returned to the company.He opened the office door and saw me sitting there, somewhat desolate. And he asked me, worried: “What’s wrong with you, Madam President?”I shook my head,
