As soon as Evelyn arrived at the bus station, a bus arrived.
She was afraid that Benjamin would catch up with her, so she got straight on the bus without checking the number of bus.
There were very few people on the bus, so she found a seat near the window and sat down.
Not long after she sat down, she stared at the street scene that was slowly moving backwards outside the window and cursed herself for being neurotic.
"Evelyn, you are paranoid, aren't you? Or are you stupid?" She patted her face and muttered in a low voice, "You refused him just now. He is a proud man, isn't he? How could he try to catch up with you?"
"However... he is kindhearted. You should have paid attention to your words and tone just now. Maybe you will be together with Lawrence after he comes back, but what if Benjamin wants to ruin your relationship with Lawrence?"
"But, he shouldn't be such a bad man, right? He looks very upright, doesn't he? But,
upright? It seems that..."
While she was talking to herself, she saw that the man who was sitting in front of her looked back at her. He looked at her as if he was looking at a madman with surprise and disgust in his eyes.
The woman next to the man seemed to be his girlfriend or wife, and she also looked back at her.
Realizing that she had disturbed them, Evelyn smiled at them with embarrassment. Then she lowered her head and felt so awkward.
Furthermore, when she thought of Lawrence....
Alas!
Last time, he came back to see her. If he hadn't left because of work all of a sudden, maybe she had told him her feelings, and they might have been together, right?
Even though he was abroad because of his work and they could not be together every day, nor often meet each other, at least they had confirmed their relationship.
But...
Although she felt a bit regretful because Lawrence suddenly left and thought that the road to happiness was strewn with setbacks, sometimes she was glad. Lawrence came back on Spring Festival. If he hadn't insisted on meeting his friends with her, she wouldn't have been in such a dilemma.
But if she didn't go with him, the problem between them would still exist. Perhaps... there would be more problems because they were together.
Alas!
She was not sure.
Just let nature take its course.
She put her elbow against the car window gloomily, supported her chin and looked at the back of the chair in front of her helplessly. As she thought of the relationship between her and Lawrence, she thought about Elizabeth and felt happy for her.
Elizabeth finally had a happy life after suffering so much. Although she used to live a hard life, at this time she had a husband who loved her and had such a cute son. She was really a winner in life, wasn't she?
Child... Well, if she got married in the future, she might have a child in a few years, right? However, she didn't know who she would be with.
"Darling, look at this car!" The woman who had just looked back at her said to the man beside her.
"What car?"
"Bentley."
"Oh." The man answered without interest, "Dear, you don't have to be envious. When our house is cleared away, I'll buy you a Bentley."
The woman smiled, "You said that you would buy me a Hermes bag."
"Of course!" The man was particularly generous.
"You also said that you would buy me a villa."
