I knew that Justin liked me, but the man I loved had always been Edward.
Cornelia looked at me in disappointment and then said, "Sunny, G.M.Xi has died..."
"Do you know, Cornelia? I have a feeling that Edward is still alive."
I interrupted Cornelia's words and looked at her.
"How is it possible? Sunny, don't be immersed in the dream anymore. He has already..."
"Cornelia, you won't understand the stubbornness in my heart. Even I myself don't understand. A voice in my mind tells me that Edward is still alive, but I don't know where he lives. But, no matter what, I will wait for him."
I held Cornelia's hand and said softly.
Cornelia looked at me, and her beautiful eyes were filled with tears.
"I hope so."
After saying that with a complicated expression, Cornelia held my hand and was about to enter the hot pot restaurant.
I accidentally saw a familiar figure on the opposite road.
Although he was dressed in tattered clothes, his back looked so familiar...
Was it Edward? I pushed away Cornelia's hand in a panic and ran toward the opposite road.
"Sunny, where are you going?" Behind me was Cornelia Li's anxious cry, but I couldn't care about it.
The only thing I wanted to do was to catch up with that figure. I wanted to make sure whether he was Edward.
However, when I came to the road, the people came and went, but I couldn't see that figure.
I stood in the middle of the road and only saw many strangers. The figure disappeared.
"Sunny, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly come here?" Cornelia came to me breathlessly. When she saw that I was staring at the front with a pale face, she asked me.
I looked back at Cornelia and said bitterly, "Maybe I'm wrong. Let's go. Ashe is waiting for us."
Cornelia looked at me in confusion. Then she nodded and pulled me out of there.
I turned back and looked at the empty street. I couldn't help but feel a little pain in my heart.
Edward...
If I could turn around and take another look, maybe I could really see him... But at that time, I didn't look back!
On the third floor of the hotpot restaurant.
Ashe ate so happily and his forehead was covered with sweat, but I had no appetite at all.
I held a spoon and looked at the bowl in front of me without saying a word. Justin picked up vegetables for me. He frowned slightly and said, "What are you thinking about?"
"Thank you." I came to sense and looked at the vegetables in my bowl. Then, I forced a smile at Justin.
"What's wrong with you? From just now, you look weird. Is there something wrong with your work?" Justin held his chin and asked blandly.
I felt that Justin had changed a lot. In the past, he was indifferent and cruel. But he had become tender.
"Nothing, maybe I'm too tired recently and have an illusion." I explained to Justin.
Justin squinted his green eyes, glanced at me, and then stopped talking.
After eating the hotpot, Ashe wanted to eat dessert. I agreed, but the secretary suddenly called me, so I had to go back and attend a meeting.
"Good boy, go home with Cornelia. I still have work to do."
"You work everyday. You don't care about me anymore." Hearing what I said, Ashe's beautiful face was full of grievances.
I also knew that I didn't spend time with him because of work. I felt very sorry for him, but...
"When I'm done with my work, I'll come over to find you, okay?"
"I hate you." Hearing what I said, Ashe was not as obedient as he used to be. Suddenly, he shouted at me and ran away. I looked at his back and was very worried. When I was about to chase him, Cornelia had already run towards him. Justin held my hand and comforted me faintly, "I'll take him back. You go to the meeting now."
"But..." Although work was very important, it was not as important as Ashe.
"Be obedient. You have just started your business. You are now the decision- maker of the whole company. You can't be capricious."
Justin's face darkened as he said to me.
I looked at Justin and had to ask the driver to send me to the company.
I believed that he could bring Ashe back.
"Do you have any objections to this plan?" When the meeting was coming to an end, I asked the executives with a pen in my hand.
These were the elite managers of the Fang's Group. Each of them was very capable.
"No, everything will be done according to your wishes."
"In this case, I will let the secretary start planning this project immediately. We need to start this project as soon as possible. Because we can make lots of money with the preferential policies of the government."
