Beloved Old Lover

Emily’s words made Kevin surprised and then angry. She slept with him and made love to him all night long but refused, not wanting him to take responsibility.

Could it be that she still wants to marry Daniel? Did she think he would allow this to happen? How could a sister-in-law sleep with her husband’s brother?

He would rather let his younger brother know about it and get hurt once than close his eyes and let the mistake continue.

“I’ll talk to Daniel and….”

“No, please, I beg you, please don’t tell him.”

Emily shook her head frantically, quickly ran closer to him, and grabbed his hand, earnestly begging. She couldn’t let Daniel know about this shameful thing, he would be very hurt.

More than anyone else, she knew he loved her like his life, and trusted her absolutely, how could he accept this harsh truth? She will break up with him but for a different reason.

“Emily, you and Daniel can’t…”

“I know, I know, I will break up with him but will use another reason. Please… I beg you…”

Looking at her tear-stained face, Kevin’s heart contracted violently. He is also very heartbroken, does she know?

He has done wrong things to his younger brother and he understands that if he marries her, the relationship between him and his family may come to a dead end. However, he cannot abandon her. He still loves her dearly.

He reassured himself that maybe she couldn’t accept his proposal for the time being because she was confused. He believes that when she calms down, she will think about what he said.

“Okay, Emily, remember that no matter what happens, I’ll still be with you.”

Emily didn’t answer him, but quickly let go of his hand and quickly put the key in the lock, opened the gate, and entered the house.

Until now, she still doesn’t believe that what happened last night was true. However, she was forced to accept this cruel reality. She was no longer pure, and that man was not the one who was engaged to her.

Kevin’s sigh made the empty alley even more sad. Last night, he poured out all his strength on her body, so even now, he is still very tired and his mind is still spinning.

Not knowing what else to do, he sat down in front of her gate. If he was back at the company now, he wouldn’t be in the mood to work.

Inside the house, Emily was dragging her broken body up the stairs. Her mind is now empty. She felt like an evil woman.

“Daniel, bad people like me should leave you. You are an angel in my heart, I cannot tarnish you. I don’t want you to become bad because of me.”

She sat down halfway up the stairs and sobbed like a bullied child. Happiness seemed close at hand, but it was gone after just one night of madness.

She wouldn’t be suffering like this if she didn’t have feelings for Daniel. The needle in the bag will come out over time. If she stubbornly marries him, sooner or later he will know.

Furthermore, Kevin would never allow the wedding to take place. If she continues, he will tell Daniel everything. She cannot destroy their brotherhood.

It wasn’t until more than half an hour later that Emily finally entered the bathroom. She soaked in the tub of water, trying to wash away the traces of her sins. Her eyes almost lost feeling, unable to feel the tears flowing down her cheeks.

When she came back out, out of habit, she lifted the curtain and looked down and saw Kevin’s car still parked in front of the house gate.

In terms of stubbornness and clinginess, she is number one and he and his younger brother are number two.

After sighing helplessly, she took out her phone and texted him, telling him to go home because she needed quiet and didn’t want his younger brother to see this inexplicable scene. She also promised to cancel her marriage with Daniel and not step foot in his house again.

Kevin’s eyes looked painfully up at the glass window covered with white curtains overhead. He indeed wants her to annul her marriage to his younger brother, but he doesn’t want her to refuse to step foot into his house.

He was worried that she wouldn’t think clearly and do something foolish. It’s not like he sat here expecting her to promise these things.

“She still has her father, it’ll be okay, Emily can’t leave him alone.”

Kevin reassured himself and drove back to the Gold Hotel. He didn’t want to bring this haggard appearance home during office hours, he would be reprimanded by his father.

At the company, Venn will know how to arrange things himself. He will try to regain his spirits tomorrow morning.

The clock kept turning and soon it was afternoon. The phone in Emily’s hand kept raising and lowering.

She looked at Daniel’s phone number countless times but didn’t dare call him. Usually, he always texts and calls her during free hours of the day. Is he so busy today?Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Did Kevin talk about that with him?”

Sweat poured out and drenched her thin hands. She felt like she was so exhausted. If Daniel knew and chose to leave her in silence, she would completely accept.

She was just afraid that he would be too miserable and do something foolish. The type of person like him who considers love as life cannot endure this attack.

Until night fell and her father returned, she still hadn’t contacted Daniel. Because James ate out with his business partner, Emily only cooked instant noodles for dinner.

As she ate, tears fell from her eyes, mixing with the broth. If it weren’t for Kevin texting her, reminding her to cherish herself and try to eat on time, she would have ignored her hungry stomach.

Her mother died while giving birth to her, she cannot help but cherish this life.

The sound of her phone ringing pulled her out of her chaotic thoughts. Seeing that the caller was Daniel, she happily took the phone and stood up. However, she hesitated and did not dare to pick up the phone.

What is she so happy about? She and he are about to break up.

Outside the villa, Daniel kept looking at the inside. He was extremely impatient because she didn’t pick up the phone. Could it be that for a day now, he hasn’t texted or called so she’s upset?

He believes Emma won’t say anything about it, he believes Emily can’t know. He knew his fiancee was in the house because she didn’t have close friends to hang out with at this hour and she was off work and couldn’t work overtime.

“Emily, it’s me, I’m standing in front of your gate, open the gate for me.” Daniel quickly spoke up when Emily picked up the phone.

“Yes, I’ll be right out.”

After drying her face, smoothing her hair, and adjusting her dress neatly, she quickly opened the gate for him.

As soon as she saw his haggard face, a feeling of guilt rose in her heart, making her almost cry again.

“Why do you look so tired?” She tried to suppress her emotions and asked in a low voice.

“Ah, yesterday I drank too much, this morning I had to get up early and have meetings, and have been handling work until now.” He forced a smile and lied.

His large and warm hand gently reached up and brushed away the stray hairs from her face. He could see that her eyes were slightly red and puffy.

He knows women are extremely sensitive. He texted and called her every day, but today he suddenly became silent, so she would be confused and sad.

“I’m sorry, no matter how busy I am in the future, I will text you.”

After saying that, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, so tightly that it made her feel like they were about to become one.

How can she tell him? What reason could she give to break up with him? He loves her so fiercely and passionately, how can he accept letting go of her?

She was very afraid, afraid that he would go crazy because of love. He’s not like Kevin. He is a boy who has been pampered since childhood, has never experienced hardship, and his candy has never been taken away by anyone.

“Emily, please go for a walk in the park with me.” Daniel let go of her and gently suggested.

“Yes.”

Both of them quickly got in the car and drove to a nearby park. The scene was still the same as the first day he brought her here.

The trees were silent, occasionally swaying because of the wind. Electric lights radiate yellow light onto the winding roads. There are only a few couples on park benches confiding and chatting.

He was holding her hand, walking beside her, but she felt as if the two of them were standing a vast ocean apart.

And he felt extremely insecure as if the girl next to him was a drop of morning dew that would easily disappear from his life at any time. He wondered if he should confess his mistake and ask for her forgiveness.

He knew she came to him because he stood out to block the storm for her when she was most lonely. He knew she came to him because she felt indebted to him and he knew she came to him because she wanted to help her father keep the Wine company.

More importantly, he knew she came to him because she had lost hope in his brother, but now, Kevin is a single gentleman who broke up with his girlfriend.

“Emily, if… I said if. If I do something wrong to you but I didn’t mean it, will you forgive me?” Daniel’s voice was a bit hesitant.

His question made her stop, her heart beating fast because of nervousness. Was he checking on her? Why did he suddenly ask this question?

“Daniel, you’re so strange today, why do you ask like that?”

“Ah, just a question before marriage. You also know that married life cannot be peaceful forever. I’m worried… I’m worried I’ll do something wrong and make you unhappy, I…”

She smiled and used her slender fingers to gently touch his lips, stopping him. She is the one who did wrong. She made a mistake that she knew no one could forgive, except Kevin.

She should let go of this simple guy. She will let him be happy for the rest of today and tomorrow, she will proactively say goodbye, probably without any reason.

“Daniel, with someone who loves you, even if you do wrong, they still think you do right, right?”

“You… you said… you mean you love me?” His lips trembled, and his voice became hoarse.

“Tomorrow… I will answer tomorrow, okay?”

She quickly came closer and leaned her head on his chest, hiding her tears in time. Her heart was not stone, she loved him, very sincerely.

However, she will never have the chance to say this word of love because if she said it, how could she say goodbye to him?

She and he don’t have tomorrow anymore. Tomorrow, he will return to being the brightest single gentleman in this city, and she will return to being Cinderella without a prince by her side.

“Let’s go to register our marriage tomorrow afternoon. There are a few days left until the wedding.” Daniel kissed the top of her head strongly and suggested.

“Yes.”
