"We're divorced. We broke up three years ago." Bryan said, not forgetting to pick up an orange from the fruit basket and peeled it for Anna.
"Anna, I remember that you loved oranges the most before. But you don't eat the fiber on the orange. I'll strip it off for you."
Anna didn't receive the orange when Bryan give it to her. Her face was very cold, "Bryan, you were together before. How can you be so cold-blooded and heartless?"
"We are already divorced. I made it clear to her three years ago that I had nothing to do with her anymore."
"Do you think that you really had no relationship with each other after the divorce?" Anna couldn't help but freeze after saying that.
In a trance, she felt that she was talking about herself and Liam.
She kept saying to Liam that they had nothing to do with each other after the divorce, but did she think so?
That was why she naturally and directly shouted these words to Bryan.
"Anna, you must believe me. I really have broken up with her completely. It was she who refused to let go and kept pestering me. Back then, it was also because she pestered me that all those silly things happened. Otherwise how could the engagement between us be cancelled?"
"Everything was because of Chloe. I really don't want t o mention her again now."
Anna took a deep breath, and then said word by word," We won't mention what happened before. But this time, because of you, she almost jumped off the building and died."
"Even if you don't have any feelings for her anymore, you used to live together. You should go see her."
"Besides, you know very well her feelings for you!"
"But I only have you in my heart right now." Bryan held Anna's hand.
Anna frowned tightly and shook off Bryan's hand violently. She squinted at him with a hint of dislike," It's over between us long ago!"
"I'm sorry, Anna. I know I've hurt your feelings. Please don't be angry anymore. I was tempted at that time."
"I lost my mind. Chloe took the opportunity to get me drunk and she was the one who pestered me. In fact, Anna, the person I always liked was you..."
"That’s enough, Bryan."
Anna interrupted Bryan.
"Anna, do you know how much I regret? I really shouldn't have made those mistakes back then. I want to make up for them now. Can you give me a chance?"
Bryan stood up anxiously. He looked at Anna expectantly, but all he saw was her cold eyes.
"It's been impossible between us for a long time. Don't say such annoying words anymore!"
"Please give me a chance."
Anna's expression became colder, and there was an unconcealed disgust in her eyes, "If you still have conscience, go and see Chloe."
"Why would I go see her! I told her a long time ago that we have broken up and shouldn't bother each other. I only love you now, Anna!"
Anna could not bear it anymore and shouted at this poor man.
"Why do you still insist?! I’ll tell you for the last time that there is nothing between us! You are just an ordinary person to me in the future! We’re not even friends!"
"Chloe has given so much to you! Now you hurt her so much that she jumped off a building to commit suicide. But you don't even care. You're too ruthless!"
"Don't blame Chloe for all the mistakes back then! It takes two to make love. If you weren't willing, how could she have climbed into your bed?"
