A —nne no longer bothered with the mother and son pair's expression, as he walked towards the company's main hall in large strides.
She cried because she knew very well that her feelings for Alan had never changed.
She loved him, and being with him for the past few days made her even more reluctant to leave him.
She was truly shocked. She loved such a man, yet there was a mother that was always against her and looked down on her. Even if it was to honor her words, in order to not make her life too ugly, she had no choice but to reject this love.
Alan stood outside the hall like a statue. His expression did not change for a long time, as though he had been petrified.
Angela had never seen her son in such despair before. Only now did she realise that something was wrong.
"Son, you ... Are you alright? " Angela walked over and reached out to push him, to make sure that he was alright.
Alan said with a sorrowful voice that carried a sneer that carried self — mockery, "Are you satisfied yet? You're happy that you managed to break us apart, aren't you? Mom, do you know how hard it is for me to get close to her again? Do you know how much energy I put in order to live in peace with her? You don't know, you only know how to discriminate against the birth of others. Do you think that everyone is like you, born a noble? "
Angela was shocked speechless by her son's howl.
"Alan ..."
Alan seemed to have used up all of his strength, as he leaned weakly against the wall, his head lowered, and his voice sad: "Alright, I'll resign, and return to being your most proud son. I'll live according to your wish until you're satisfied."
After Alan finished speaking, he turned around and walked back to the company.
Angela stood there in a daze. In that moment, she forgot her reason for coming here.
However, this was the first time she saw her son speak to her in such a tone. The way he acted just now made her heart ache inexplicably.
Was she really wrong?
All she wanted was for her son to find a suitable girl to marry and have children with.
Anne was definitely not her ideal daughter-in -law candidate.
Was she going to compromise?
It was the first time in Angela's life that she was confused by a decision.
Alan anxiously went upstairs, straight to Anne's office.
Sure enough, her expression had returned to normal while sitting motionlessly on the office chair. However, Alan knew that a fierce wind was blowing inside her heart.
Alan did not care about the strange gazes from the subordinates anymore. He stood in front of Anne, both his hands supporting her desk, and for a moment, he did not know what to say. He only closed his eyes, and after a long while, he suppressed his voice and asked: "Anne, have you really decided?"
Anne didn't look at his eyes, she only stared at the table, her voice calm: "Don't you find it too painful? Since we really don't have any destiny, then let's not force it."
Alan knew that all the hard work he had put in during this short period of time had all gone to waste.
"But I want to be with you! I want to take care of you and our daughter! " Alan firmly locked her little face, and his voice carried deep emotion.
