Purchased A Mr. Right novel Chapter 681

Boyd, who had left with Maeve before, now caught up again. "Emily, can I speak to you for a moment?"

"No, I..." Emily pursed her lips.

Boyd interrupted her hurriedly. She didn't know if it was because he was married, he became gloomy in a state of preoccupation. "I just want to talk to you. I won't keep you a moment. Ten minutes! Or five minutes. I promise I won't bother you after I finish my words!"

Upon hearing the last word, Emily frowned.

Almost subconsciously, she turned her head to look to the side.

When Simon met with her gaze, a faint smile crossed his lips. He raised his hand and stroked her head as if he had done it countless times. "Why are you looking at me? Come on, it's up to you!"

"Okay!" Emily said, nodding after weighing the pros and cons.

Seeing this, Simon shook her shoulder. "I'll wait for you at the crossing ahead."

After that, he walked past them with his hands in his pockets.

This pedestrian street led to the river bank. When they were in university, they often dated here on weekends. Now they stood face to face, but everything was different. Emily asked nonchalantly with her hands clasped behind her. "Boyd, what do you want to say?"

Boyd lowered his head and kept silent for a while. Then he said slowly, "Emily, do you hate me?"

"No." Upon hearing this, Emily shook her head, a faint sneer hung on her lips. "Boyd, you did hurt me a lot, but the past is, well, it's past! It's a lie that lovers could still be friends after breakup. We can't be lovers or friends, we'd better not to meet each other in this life! I did hate you and don't want to forgive you, but now, I feel nothing to you. At your wedding, I said that I wish you happiness after your marriage. I mean every word of it."

"Emily, I know that I'm not worthy of your forgiveness." Boyd's gaze was deeply fixed on her, behind his eyes was a whole universe of pain. "But Emily, I have a reason. Until now, I am still helpless!"

"Life was so hard when I studied alone abroad. I knew what you had done for me, so I also wanted to give you a better life! After graduation, I worked as an intern at Maeve's father's company. I didn't expect that she would love me at first sight. I told her thousand times that I had a girlfriend, but she didn't give up!"

"In the end, in order to force me to marry her, she even set a trap for me. I committed commercial crimes. If I don't agree to be with her, I will be thrown in jail. Even if I might be released, my life is ruined. You know that I am an only child. I need to support my parents, so I am forced step by step and have become what I am now..."

Hearing this, Emily was stunned for a moment.

She had always thought that the reason why he cheated on her was because he had taken a fancy to Maeve's identity and wanted to make use of this opportunity to achieve a meteoric rise. She never thought that he would have no other choice.

He was not happy either.

When Emily heard the truth, she was indeed shocked. But on second thought, she couldn't help sneering. "Well, it's indeed her style!"

She had seen Maeve's tactics. At that time, her uncle was almost thrown in jail. If she hadn't reached a marriage agreement with Simon, he would have ended up in prison. Maeve would have done anything to anybody to get her way. What a horrible woman!

"Emily, I don't know how we became like this today. I was sincere when I returned to China, I told you to wait for me for three years, at most four years, I will definitely be successful an rich. By then, I won't have to worry about being manipulated by anyone!" Boyd looked at her and his voice became hoarse, "I just didn't expect that you would get married before me..."
