16 

Sean’s hand froze in mid–air and his smile froze on his face. 

I looked at the familiar and strange people in front of me, and I was stunned for a moment. 

I thought I would never see him again in my 

life. 

Dariel left with our parents, who trusted me with my ability to handle it. 

There were only two people left in the garden, me and Sean Drake. 

I sat back on the swing and stroked the cat in my arms with a calm expression. 

Sean Drake, as usual, reached out and rubbed my head and crouched down at eye level with gentle eyes:“Nancy, I miss you so much.” 

“Next time don’t leave without saying anything, I’ll be worried.” 

“You can tell me where you want to go and who you want to meet, and I’ll be with you.” 

If I had been in the past, in the face of such an affectionate offensive, I would have burst into his arms with tears. 

But at the moment, I just sneered, “Sean Drake, you such deep feeling, let me feel a little 

hypocritical, do you forget those things that happened in the past?” 

Listen to me mention the past, Sean knew I was still angry. 

After a moment’s hesitation, he bowed his head and apologized: “I’m sorry Nancy, it’s my fault, I know you have been wronged, I ignored your feelings before, please forgive me.” 

I felt ridiculous. 

A lighthearted apology would erase the hurt he had caused me. 

In his heart, my love and forgiveness seemed to have been taken for granted. 

I looked at him, my eyes cold, as if I were looking at a stranger. 

“Sean, do you think that if you apologize, I will forgive you?” 

“As soon as you drop down and come to me, I will follow you back without hesitation?” 

“If only you 

would say you love me, and I would forget everything that ever happened, and follow you like I have for the past ten years?” 

Sean startled for a moment, did not make a sound, the answer was obvious. 

I smiled gently:“Sean, once I also thought that I would love you for a lifetime. Yes, but 

you 

don’t care, so I poured out my love for you bit by bit.” 

“When I was alone at home with a high fever, you didn’t care; 

When I sat in a freezing pool for four hours, you didn’t mind. 

You didn’t care when everything I had was taken from me. 

When I was reviled and lost the will to live, you didn’t care.” 

“What you care about is Sienna Thorne’s frown, every word and action.” 

“Now I am tired, I choose to quit, you don’t bother me anymore.”
