Chapter 6
After resting for a period of time, Marve gradually recovered.
In her spare time, she roughly calculated the expenses after going abroad and found that the amount was quite large.
Just before, a regular customer introduced a big business deal. With nothing else to do, she took it on.
When we arrived at the scene, we realized it was a birthday party.
When she saw Donte leading Phoebe, she froze directly, and a few not–so–good premonitions arose in her mind.
The deposit has already been received, and she could only suppress those strange feelings and take out the camera.
Seeing her, Phoebe immediately lifted her skirt and greeted her with a smile,
“Excuse me, could you please take the photo from a lower angle and reduce the brightness a bit? And when I go on stage later, please zoom in the lens a
little more
Based on the numerous requirements she presented, Maeve took hundreds of photos.
But Phoebe was still not satisfied and insisted on retaking it.
She persevered and retook the scene three or four times, feeling a faint pain in her injured wrist.
Phoebe glanced and a mocking expression appeared on her face.
“What happened to the photos? The great photographer doesn’t seem as impressive as rumored, huh? Let’s use the first edition instead, at least there are a few shots that are pleasing to the eye.”
The people around covered their mouths and started laughing secretly.
Maeve rubbed her rumb knee, squatted down, and supported herself to stand up with a grunt
Phoebe became even more proud and walked over to Dante, affectionately throwing herself into his arms.
Then she turned around and waved her band at Marve, bossily.
“Come over and help me take a few photos with my boyfriend.”
Maeve’s eyes froze for a moment, then quickly returned to their cold indifference.
She lifted the camera, aimed the lens at two people, and pressed the shutter button.
Phoebe struck countless poses, and in the end, she even tiptoed and kissed Donte.
Atance,
the whole audience screamed
“Good–looking guys and beautiful girls, my eyes are pleased when they date
“The party was organized without besitation, as soon as it was mentioned. Whatever the little birthday boy said, Mr. Leblanc agreed to it. He was really spoiled.”
Upon hearing the jeers, Donte’s body stiffened for a moment
He released his hand that was wrapped around Phoebe’s waist and nervously looked at Maeve,
She, however, had no reaction and kept her head down, flipping through the photos in the camera.
It seemed as if she didn’t care at all about what had just happened.
At eleven o’clock, this four–hour–long banquet finally came to an end.
Maeve put the camera back into her bag and took out a tissue to wipe off the cake that had just been “accidentally” spilled on her clothes by Phoebe.
In the empty hall, suddenly came a sound of footsteps.
She looked up and saw Phoebe walking towards her with a big smile on her face.
“Thank you for your hard work tonight. Are you in need of money? I have another set of photos that I would like you to help me take. I can double the price. Will you accept?”
Double?
Chapter 6
Marve hesitated for a moment, but eventually nodded and agreed.
Phoebe took her upstairs to the hotel directly and first set up the shooting angle and content.
Maeve had just set up the camera in the corner when someone knocked on the door.
Phoebe did not rush to open the door, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face.
“It’s about to start soon, remember to take pictures of everything.”
She pulled the curtains closed, covering the corner, leaving only a small gap for the camera.
Marve curled up in the narrow space, listening to the footsteps getting closer and crouched down.
Under the warm yellow light, Phoebe walked slowly, pulling on a man’s lie.
The bodies of the two people were tightly pressed together, with clothes occasionally scattered on the ground.
The ambiguous gasping sound emerged as Marve’s hand, resting on the frame, suddenly clenched tightly while watching Donte, who was passionately kissing Phoebe in the camera.
He didn’t know that she was right there in the room, wreaking havoc on Phoebe, eliciting a series of delicate whimpers.
“What kind of surprises did you prepare for tonight?
You have all your favorites, several sets of clothes, waiting for you to tear them apart, my dear husband.”
50 provocative, you will die on me sooner or later.‘
The surging desire in the room grew increasingly intense.
Listening to the continuous sound, Maeve had become numb
Her chest felt as if it had been blocked by something, suppressed to the extreme, making it difficult even to breathe.
Time became incredibly slow at this moment.
Every minute and every second was so difficult to endure.

At three in the morning, the room fell silent.
The sound of water in the bathroom rang out.
Maeve pulled back the curtain and walked out with her legs, which had lost consciousness.
She stepped over the scattered broken clothes, placed the memory card on the table, and opened the door.
After a soft sound, a deep voice came from the bathroom.
“What sound? Is someone there?
“How is it possible for someone to be here so late at night? Never mind, let’s try again.”
I slightly pushed open the bathroom door, then tightly closed it again.
Marve turned around and looked at her reflection in the glass, then she turned back and closed the door.
The streets in the early morning were empty, with no one and no cars.
She wandered aimlessly alone, with a buzzing sound in her ears, but her mind was completely blank.
I don’t know how long we had been walking, but it was already dawn.
Maeve lifted her bruted eyes and realized, to her surprise, that she had unknowingly returned to her high school alma mater.
The campus at seven o’clock was very quiet. She walked alone on the school path, looking around somewhat absentmindedly.
Some dusty memories loosened slowly.
Donte pulled her to run around the 800–meter track of the playground, decorated the small hall with roses for her birthday, and confessed his love to her in front of the whole school at the flag raising platform.
Everything was just lile in the past, but Marve, who was in the midst of it all, felt completely different.
She walked to the teaching building and ran into the headmaster who happened to be going to work
Because of Donte’s previous high–profile pursuit, almost all the teachers recognized her, and the principal smiled and greeted her.
“Maeve? Why did you suddenly come back to school? And where is Donte? I heard you two got engaged recently. Did you come to hand out wedding invitations?
Marve forced a smile and changed the subject.
“‘s be
been a long time since I last came back, so I thought I’d drop by and visit the teachers.”
The two people walked and talked, recalling many past events and feeling a thousand motions.
Before parting, the director seemed to remember something and took out a yellowed diary from the office cabinet and handed over.
“This is the discipline check I used to do during our study sessions. I took it from Donte’s hands. Since your good times are approaching, I’ll give it back
Maeve hesitated for a moment, then took it and bowed to the teacher
On the way back, she opened her diary and saw Donte’s flamboyant handwriting,
“On March 12th, Marve didn’t agree with me, but she smiled at me today, and 1 felt like I had a chance.
“On July 1
1st, the summer vacation was too long. I waited downstairs at Marve’s house for four hours before I finally saw her.“”
“On November 23rd, someone confessed to Mare today, and it made me so angry. I ended up bearing him up and got reprimanded
“On December 21st, today was my seventeenth birthday. Seventeen–year old Donte’s only wish was to be with sixteen–year–old Maeve, forever, never to be apart.”
Every page had the same name, writing down the thoughts of the youth.
As she watched, Maeve’s nose suddenly felt sour, and tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.

Open
Drop by drop, it is a tribute to the past.
It is also a farewell
When the car stopped at the entrance of the villa, Marve had already calmed down her chaotic emotions.
She closed her diary, opened the car door, and came face to face with Donte, who had just returned.
Looking at the crimson hickey on his neck, she remembered what had happened during the night and averted her gaze.
Donte noticed that she seemed to have cried, furrowed his brow, and was just about to discreetly ask her about it.
Phoebe, nestled in his arms, also saw her red eyes and couldn’t help but giggle.
“Yesterday, I worked you hard. I have already sent the money over, and I am very satisfied with the things you took. You should also be satisfied, right?”
Upon hearing her seemingly suggestive tone, Donte’s heart skipped a beat.
“What are you satisfied with?”
“The birthday photos from the first half of the night, what else could they be, as for the second half of the night…”
Watching her unfiltered mouth, Donto’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly covered her mouth.
She, however, cast a flirtatious glance at him and gently took hold of his fingers.
Watching the two people openly flirting, Maeve had become immune and turned around to walk home.
As she passed by the trash bin, she casually threw the diary into it.
Those youthful years, filled with love and sincerity, were completely bursed.

Chapter 8
Before leaving, Maeve sent a message to the landlord and informed him that she would not be renewing the lease.
The landlord kept asking why she wanted to move out, and she casually made up an excuse.
The landlord said she could have a few more days, allowing her to stay until mid–October.
Mave knew that it was Dante who had instructed behind her back.
He asked her to stay for two more days, and then pretended to regain his memory, so he could bring her back home.
She did not see through their plan and agreed.
Three days before leaving, Maeve received an unfamiliar phone call,
“Ms. Crosby? Hello, I’m the manager of Frorel Hotel, where you held your engagement party: Here’s the situation: Your fiancé had booked our main hall for the wedding banquet scheduled for the day after tomorrow. However, we haven’t been able to reach him lately, and there are some details we need to verify and discuss. Would you be available to come by and talk it through?”
Marve initially wanted to refuse, but when she heard the date of the day after tomorrow, her eyelashes trembled slightly.
January 1st was the day Donte decided to regain her memory, and also the day she prepared to leave.
She agreed and took a taxi to rush over. As soon as she entered the hall and saw the decorations, she fell silent.
From flowers to decorations, everything was exactly the same as the setting when Donte proposed to her.
Immersed in it, Maeve momentarily couldn’t distinguish between the present and the past.
The manager who accompanied her just came and was about to introduce when he received a phone call and temporarily left.
She walked alone to the second floor and looked down, unable to help but recall the scene when Donte held flowers and a ring, kneeling on the ground, making a promise to love her forever
Back then, Maeve eagerly looked forward to the upcoming married life with joy.
Who would have thought that, just three months later, everything would have vanished into thin air and become nothing
Just as I was feeling emotional, the door was suddenly pushed open
Donte, dressed in a suit, walked in holding a bouquet of flowers.
Phoebe, who was following behind, saw the dreamlike scene in front of her and couldn’t help but exclaim, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
“Donte, why did you bring me here?”
Donte snapped his fingers, his face beaming with pride.
“This is the place where I proposed to Maeve and held our engagement banquet before. The day after tomorrow, I plan to have a few of my brothers bring Maeve here, and then I can pretend to be moved by the scene and naturally recall the past.”
“I brought you here today todo a rehearsal first. You will play the role of Maeve and see if there are any flaws
With that, he pushed Phoebe to the center of the stage and began performing
The enormous beam blocked Marve firmly.
She watched quietly as the two people passionately performed, her eyes shimmering slightly.
I have to admit that Donte is indeed very talented in performing.
If she had no idea about all this, she might have been deceived by him if she came here three days later.
Fortunately, she had not been unlucky to that extent.
Downstairs, the process had reached the stage of forgiveness, and Phoebe tiptoed and kissed Donte
The originally affectionate atmosphere started to sour from this moment on.
The snow–white suit was stained with lipstick, flowing down along with the pink long skirt.
Donte pinched the snowy white waist, his tone frivolous and casual.

“Someone could come in here at any time, and you couldn’t resist coming to seduce me like this?”
“There are only three days left, don’t you understand the value of a moment in spring night? Moreover, isn’t it exciting to have such an important occasion in your life?”
Watching her charming and alluring gestures, Donte squinted his eyes and chuckled softly.
“So many varieties of flowers?”
“How else can I make you, my husband, remember me? If you don’t feel satisfied after returning to her, you can contact me anytime.”
Upon hearing these words, Donte raised his hand and grasped her chin, a glimmer of clarity shining in his eyes.
His tone was filled with absolute certainty.
“There won’t be a future anymore. Three days later, everything will be over. I will only belong to Marve.”
Marve lowered her eyes, concealing the mockery in her eyes, and gave him an answer in her heart.
Unfortunately, Donte, I didn’t want you anymore.
