How could it be him?
Why him of all people?
When he first met Tamara, he was immediately interested in her. However, just as he was about to make a move, he heard that she had a childhood sweetheart.
The two of them were extremely close, and they were a perfect match in every way. Everyone around them knew they were a couple.
Darwin was not superstitious, he insisted on getting closer to Tamara.
He confessed to Tamara, but she rejected him without hesitation, subtly indicating that she already had feelings for someone else.
Darwin didn’t give up. He confessed his feelings eight times, but she never accepted him.
Finally, she even told him directly that she liked Karson.
Darwin was both frustrated and unwilling to accept defeat, so he resorted to some unsavory tactics.
Although he got Tamara as he wished, every time he thought of Karson, he felt a lump in his throat.
I didn’t expect that after so long, he would still be thinking about seeing
Karson.
If back then he could still outperform others in various aspects, now he

doesn’t even have this advantage anymore.
The sense of past failure resurfaced in Darwin’s mind again, his brows. furrowed in frustration, his tone could be described as through gritted teeth.
“Tamara, so many years have passed, and you still can’t let him go.”
This time Tamara simply ignored him, she casually took Karson’s hand. and walked away.
She walked far away, but she could still feel Darwin’s gaze sticking to her tightly.
But this time, she would not look back again.
It wasn’t until they got on the car together that she realized she was holding Karson’s hand.
“I’m sorry.”
She said.
Just as she was about to pull her hand back, Karson instead tightened his. grip on it.
“Mara, since things have developed to the current situation, I might as well say it now.”
He looked at Tamara, his eyes gentle and solemn.
“Tamara, I liked you.”
“I have liked you since I was young, for many years. I have already lost you once before, this time, I don’t want to let go again.”

“I know you have suffered a lot in the past, and you may not be ready to start a new relationship right now, but it’s okay. I am willing to wait for you, no matter how long it takes, I am willing to wait.”
Tamara stared at him blankly, not knowing why, her eyes slightly moist.
Karson continued, “In the previous relationship, it was always you who gave everything. So this time, Mara, you don’t have to do anything. Just let me love you.”
“I have liked you for twenty years. Although I do not know if I can live to be one hundred years old, I can swear to you that I will love you for the rest of my life, until I die. So, Mara, will you give me a chance?”
Sincere and heartfelt, anyone who heard these words would be moved, including Tamara.
But she couldn’t deceive her own heart, so she could only say, “But Karson, I may never like you.”
Her heart had already been riddled with holes, and she truly didn’t know if she could ever love someone again.
Karson replied, “It’s okay, I like you just the way you are.
He didn’t ask for Tamara to respond to his feelings, he just wanted to be by her side, that’s all.
Tamara stared at him fixedly, as if a voice in her heart was telling her something.
Be brave one last time.
She closed her eyes and, after a long time, finally said a word.
“Okay.”

If the long years ahead are destined to be spent with someone by her side, then she is willing to spend them with Karson.
The engagement ceremony was scheduled for one month later.
On the day of the wedding banquet, Darwin still showed up.
During the exchange of rings, the doors of the auditorium were suddenly kicked open by someone.
Darwin took a step forward, his gaze fixed firmly on the hands of the two people tightly clasped together.
His face was gloomy, and his voice revealed no joy or anger.
“Tamara, don’t get engaged to him.”
