Zena wiped the tears on her face and continued, "Jimmy, I didn't do anything wrong. At least I think so. Everyone is selfish, isn't it? Maybe I made a wrong choice to leave you in the past, but I want to go back to you. You used to love me so much, didn't you? Why can't you give me a chance now?"
"Xavier has a grudge against you, and I had been pursued by you for so long, so he treats me with neither cold nor warm attitude. The most important reason is..."
Zena sneered, "He... can't give me the life I want because of what happened that year, and he doesn't treat me well either. In the final analysis, it's all your fault. I've become like this because of you! Now, I want to be with you, but you don't want me anymore. I'm truly... pitiful."
James swallowed a few times, and he suddenly became a bit irritated.
What happened that year...
He was really helpless and didn't know what to say. He thought that Xavier had overcome himself...
Looking at James's expression, Zena thought that he had been moved by her and immediately said, "So, it's your fault! I have become like this because of you, so you should be responsible for me!"
James came to sense when he heard these words. He raised his head and said blandly, "No matter what happened in the past, it's impossible for me to be responsible for you, and I don't care what you have become now!" "You!" Zena's eyes widened, "What did you say?"
"I don't want to repeat it." James smiled faintly and said mockingly, "Even if you have a complaint against me, you shouldn't have lied to my wife!"
"What's more, I have no obligation to be responsible for you, because you mean nothing in my heart. In fact, the only person you can blame is yourself."
After that, he didn't stay any longer, opened the door and went out.
Zena rushed to the door in disbelief, "Jimmy! Jimmy, come back!"
However, she could only see James's heartless back. James left without looking back...
James drove to South Lake and sat in the car for a long time before getting off the car with a depressed heart.
Although Zena said those words, Xavier didn't blame him and had forgiven him for what he had done in the past, so he... shouldn't think too much, should he? After all, thinking too much was useless, and he couldn't really agree to Zena's request, could he?
What he needed to do was to love Elizabeth wholeheartedly. He should protect her well and live a good life with her.
Going upstairs quickly, he didn't look for anything else but pulled open the drawer of her dresser.
In just a few seconds, he saw the shining and beautiful ring.
In the afternoon, when Elizabeth hemmed and hawed about the very important thing, he immediately understood what it was, so he came back to get it specially.
Looking at the ring, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He should have given the ring to her in a romantic way, but...
He turned around and went to the balcony. Looking at the lawn downstairs by the light, he felt very guilty and distressed.
That day, he was so mad that he threw away the ring. She... must have been looking for it for a long time, right?
She made great efforts to find the ring that he threw away like a piece of garbage. She even said that it was a very important thing. What a fool!
It was not a piece of garbage. The words burst from him in an angry rush. So...
