Lily’s gaze towards him grew even more distant and cold, “John, I’m also tired of being constantly entangled by you. Really, let’s part ways amicably. I wish you and Elsa a loving relationship and a hundred years of harmony, and I hope you can wish the same for me and my future husband, that we’ll be compatible and grow old together.”
“Lily!”
She was thinking of finding another husband again…
John could no longer suppress the rage that was churning furiously in his chest, and his voice inevitably took on a sharp edge, “How long do you plan to keep up this nonsense? I’ve said it before, I can’t possibly be with you. You’re mine, and don’t you dare look for anyone else in your next life!”
Lily was almost bent over with laughter at his words.
How absurd!
Every time, it was I who was being unreasonable!
And the idea that I shouldn’t look for anyone else in my next life…
He was bound to be disappointed. The day after tomorrow is his birthday, and it is also the day James and I are getting our marriage certificate.
However, I don’t want any mishaps with my marriage to James and won’t tell him about the upcoming registration.
She just calmly reminded him, “John, everyone is an independent individual. I don’t belong to you, nor do I need to live attached to you. If anyone truly belongs to you… it’s your precious Elsa. It was you who chose Elsa. Since you’ve made your choice, you should be with her properly instead of always interfering in my life and ruining my good mood!”
“I didn’t choose Elsa…”
John wearily pressed his temple.
I really thought Lily was being particularly unreasonable.
But he didn’t want to break up with her and still patiently explained to her, “I’ve said many times before, I’ll take care of Elsa just out of sympathy and pity for her. She’s dying and won’t disturb us for long. I just want to be with her for her last moments!”
“You don’t need to tell me these things.”
Lily didn’t want to listen to his nonsense.
But he still firmly held her shoulders, and with her body unable to move freely, she could only suppress her growing annoyance and continue,
“I consider myself a qualified ex–girlfriend. I won’t be like you, popping up from time to time like a ghost. Since we’ve broken up, whether you pity Elsa or feel heartbroken for her or love her deeply, it’s none of my business. But John, you’re really quite kind. The person who abandoned you when you were down and

out, and yet you still treasure her like a precious gem!”
“Elsa didn’t abandon me.”

John didn’t like people to mention what happened four years ago, and his brows inevitably furrowed.
“Elsa proposed to break up with me and go abroad four years ago because her family forced her. Although I’ve broken up with her, I did fail to protect her four years ago. I wronged her. I want her last days to be free of regrets. Lily, I won’t cheat, I won’t like anyone else. You’re the only one in my heart. Why can’t you understand me a little more?”
Four years ago, I had accidentally overheard Elsa tell her mother Wendy that she didn’t want to be burdened by John, who was crippled.
She also said she wanted to go abroad as soon as possible and marry some crown prince.
I didn’t know if Elsa had actually gotten married after going abroad, but she was definitely not forced to leave the country.
However, telling John these things would be meaningless.
Because he never believed me; he only believed in the pure and flawless Elsa in his heart.
“I really don’t want to argue with you.”
In a moment of distraction, Lily suddenly felt John tightly embrace her.
“Lily, can we make up?” He said.
“Let me go!” Lily shouted.
Once, I had truly loved his embrace.
His hug was warm, strong, and carried a faint scent of pine, giving me an indescribable sense of security.
But now, being held so tightly by him made me feel uncomfortable all over.
“John, how many times do I have to tell you not to disturb me anymore? In my heart, you’ve already cheated on me. The man I want, can’t possibly give another woman a wedding behind my back. Can’t possibly travel to the ends of the earth with another woman, doing all sorts of intimate things. The boyfriend I want won’t rent out an amusement park to put on a night of fireworks for another woman. Please, don’t come to disgust me anymore, okay?”
She found me disgusting again…
John’s eyes flared with pain.
His body stiffened, and the corners of his eyes were tinged with crimson.
Clearly, he still couldn’t believe that Lily would really want to break up with him.
Realizing something, he quickly grabbed Lily’s hand, as pure and white as marble.
Her wrist was bare..

The silver bracelets she treasured and never took off were not there!
“Where are the silver bracelets?”
The heavy blood color, along the corners of his eyes, instantly consumed his eyes.

He seemed like a lone wolf with one foot already over the edge of the cliff, his voice hoarse and painfully out of tune, “Speak! Where are the silver bracelets I made for you with my own hands?”
“Thrown away.”
Lily wasn’t lying.
When she moved out of the marital home, she sold quite a few things.
It was only after the second–hand store staff left that she suddenly remembered she had forgotten to sell the silver bracelets on her wrist.
