Chapter 21
Ricardo shielded Eline behind him.
She subconsciously held his hand tightly.
Vincent’s gaze always fell on that spot.
His heart was aching so much that he felt like even breathing had become a problem.
But he still didn’t give up.
Seeing her about to leave, he suddenly called out her name.
Vincent choked up, his voice hoarse, “Eline, I was wrong. I never realized how important you were to me, so important that without you, I… I can’t go on.”
“I don’t blame you for your choice today. It’s my fault for being too foolish and too late to see clearly. I just hope you can give me a chance, a chance to win you back.”
Eline didn’t turn around, but she could feel the trembling and stiffness of the person holding her hand at that moment.
Ricardo was afraid.
Because he was not sure, when Vincent bent his straight spine and noble head, Eline might still choose him.
The next second, when Eline’s soft and boneless hand wrapped around his hand.

He unconsciously looked into her eyes.
That kind of tacit understanding was so natural, as if it were innate.
“Vincent, I am someone who has died once in love, I will not look back, nor will I love you again.”
“You might as well think that the Eline who loved you is already dead.”
Eline held Ricardo’s hand and walked outside.
Until they got in the car, Ricardo couldn’t control himself and pressed her down on the back seat to kiss her.
He seemed to have exerted all his strength, making it almost impossible for her to resist.
He kissed her like crazy, as if he wanted to express all his love for her in this kiss.
The ambiguous silver threads were pulled out, Eline gasped hurriedly, a blush spreading across her cheeks.
“Eline, I loved you.”
His sudden confession took her by surprise.
“Eline, I love you!”
Ricardo’s voice grew louder, and Eline quickly covered his mouth, somewhat shyly saying, “I know.”
“You didn’t know, Ricardo gently clasped her hand in his palm.”
“Eline, I love you!”
Inside and outside the car, his voice declaring his love echoed.

Looking at him, who was all hers in her heart and eyes, Eline opened her arms and hugged the man in front of her.
“Ricardo, I loved you too.”
It was true love.
When Vincent came out, he happened to hear the declaration of love.
His eyes were wet with tears, and he awkwardly avoided eye contact.
After returning to New York, Vincent seemed to have been struck by a serious illness and was unable to recover.
He hid in his and Eline’s bridal chamber every day.
The bits and pieces of the past, like slides in a projector, played over and over again in front of him.
That sofa was Eline’s favorite to lie on, and she often read books there.
The several pots of succulents on the balcony were carefully nurtured by her all the time, and they still grew well even when she was not around.
There is also a massage chair,
the study, which she bought because she was afraid he would work too hard.
Similar to this, there were also pots and pans in the kitchen, and toiletries in the bathroom.
Originally, the three words “Eline” had already permeated every aspect of his life.
Where were there any opposite–sex siblings?
Vincent had long considered Eline to be his woman.

He would get jealous and angry for her, and he would also be happy and joyful for her.
He had been there so early.
He had already fallen in love with Eline.
In the corner of the study, Vincent found the love letter that Eline had written to him.
Through the contents of the love letters, he found out that Eline had written thousands of such letters.
But he only found the remaining few letters.
He immediately recalled that day when Eline was cooking at home.
I’m afraid these are the only love letters.
Vincent held a box containing love letters, crying like a child.
The continuous sound of the phone echoed indoors.
Vincent was not seen by anyone for several days.
George couldn’t sit still.
He found someone to pick the lock and broke into Vincent’s house.
He passed out on the cold ground, clutching those love letters in his arms.
The curtains were pulled open, and the sunlight shone on his tired eyelids, tears slowly streaming down.
“George, she didn’t want me anymore.”
George felt a wave of suffocation and discomfort when he saw himself like this.

The man lying across from me was crying with his face covered.
The suppressed sobbing sound he made tore at his heart.
On the day Eline and Ricardo got married, he also received an anonymous invitation, but he didn’t pay attention to it at the time and didn’t go to Seattle because he was out on a business trip.
Looking back now, it was the invitation sent by Eline that they were friends after all.
He never imagined that the once closest friends would come to this point.
Perhaps from the beginning, Eline should not have agreed to marry Vincent…
