There were only Xander, Giovani, and me left in the ward.
Xander looked at me, his eyes once again tinged with sadness.
After a long while, Xander chuckled self–deprecatingly, “It was my fault, I let you down. I knew I couldn’t leave you, but I still chose to cheat with a sense of false hope. I should have known this day would come since the day I cheated.”
“Ah, everything was my own doing. Now, I have completely lost you.”
Xander sighed deeply and looked at me, saying, “It was you who believed in me unconditionally and pulled me out of the abyss when I had nothing. Now, I have let you down, and I should leave on my own.”
In fact, even without my help, Xander could have made a comeback on his own back then. After all, all I did back then was to have my father provide him with some financial support. Everything now, he has achieved through his own efforts.
“I will give you all the shares of the Cooper Group, including all the cars and properties under my name. Consider it as me putting makeup on you, hoping that you will find another good partner.”
When saying this sentence, Xander glanced at Giovani sitting next to me.
I didn’t refuse when I heard Xander’s words, after all, he had betrayed my feelings and taken away my eyes, which he indeed owed me.
Then he looked at me again, his voice trembling, and said, “Sharon, you are really great, I am not worthy of you.”

Xander looked at Giovani next to me and said, “You will take good care of her, right?”
Giovani smiled and pulled me into his arms, looking at Xander, and said, “Don’t worry, with her being with me, it will be a thousand times better than being with you.”
“I will never let her down.”
Listening to Giovani’s words, Xander took a deep breath and smiled bitterly. “Then I can rest assured.”
Actually, I wanted to say that Giovani and I were just good friends in the
past.
At most, they were childhood friends, not the kind of relationship Xander imagined.
But there was really nothing to say between Xander and me, I didn’t feel like explaining, it would be a waste of words.
Xander glanced at me unwillingly, then lowered his head deeply and left the ward.
Xander carefully closed the door.
This door separated me from Xander and completely severed my relationship with him.
Watching Xander leave, I inexplicably felt relieved.
I let out a sigh of relief and was about to stretch when I realized Giovani’s hand was still around my shoulder. I smiled and said, “Thank you just now. I know you were trying to stand up for me, that’s why I said you were my boyfriend, someone I would be with for the rest of my life.”
“Don’t worry, I wouldn’t bother you, and you shouldn’t take it to heart.”

Giovani raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why didn’t you take it to heart?”
I didn’t understand Giovani’s words and replied, “You don’t even like me, so is it really because of a casual remark that you want to spend a lifetime with me? Isn’t that too childish?”
Giovani chuckled and said, “Well, how did you know that I didn’t like you?”
I was stunned and even more confused as I listened to Giovani’s words.
Giovani didn’t use his hands, instead, he lifted my chin, forcing me to make eye contact with him.
“Weren’t you just asking me if I had kept my promise to you and returned to Los Angeles?”
“I have gone back, not just once.”
The first time I went back, it was to take over the family business. The company was just starting to thrive, and I finally found the time to go back and see you. After many years of not seeing each other, I had originally wanted to spend some time with you to see if we could develop a relationship. However, I was not expecting that the Cooper family had gone bankrupt at that time. When I went back, you were already with Xander.
“The second time I went back was at your and Xander’s wedding. I was sad and upset, but I couldn’t help but sneak a glance at you.”
“Sharon, I thought I was too late, and I would never have a chance with you in this lifetime.”
“I didn’t want God to be unkind to me, and after all these years, he still brought you back to me.”
The sunlight shone through the glass, illuminating both me and Giovani.
