Chapter: 559
“You’re right. Why am I butting into your relationship? Anyways, I wish both of you the best.”
Dustin had never seen a smile that tender on her face.
“What exactly are you trying to say?” His brows furrowed.
Nothing. I suddenly feel like having a drink. Will you drink a few glasses with me?”
“No,” Dustin refused right away.
“I told you. I have nothing to do with you any longer. From now on, we shall be strangers. Please don’t bother me again in the future. I don’t wish to be played like a fool a second time!” He turned around to leave.
“Wait-” Dahlia reached out and grabbed his arm instinctively.
“Get lost!” Looking annoyed, Dustin shrugged her off.
Dahlia stumbled and fell to the floor, her hand landing on broken pieces of glass. Blood dripped down, as the glass crystals dug into her palms. She frowned but never uttered a word. The pain could never compare to the heartache she was feeling.
“You “Seeing that she was hurt, Dustin extended his hand, about to help her up, when he froze midway. After thinking about everything that had happened, he decided to be merciless and ignored her injury.
“Seems like you truly hate me. I guess it’s better that way…” Dahlia smiled and got up slowly. She continued, “I’m getting engaged to Luis tomorrow. After that, I’ll be leaving for Stonia and starting my life as Mrs. Langford. Today should be our final meeting. Thank you for taking care of me these past three years. I’ll never forget it. Humans are such weird creatures. We never appreciate things when we have them, only regretting it when we lose them.” With that, she exited the room.
Watching her departing figure, Dustin wanted to speak but didn’t know what to say.
Dahlia was about to exit the building when she suddenly stopped in her tracks. She had noticed a -familiar face. It was Natasha, pacing back and forth at the main entrance.
“You’re here too…” Dahlia gave a faint smile, “Congratulations, you won. Take care of Dustin for me. I wish both of you the best.” After she said that she brushed past Natasha.
“Huh?” Natasha frowned slightly in confusion. She wondered if Dahlia woke up on the wrong side of the bed today.
“Why did you come back?” Dustin walked out of the room.
Natasha rolled her eyes.
“I was worried, of course. What if something happened to you?”
“They’re just a few weaklings. They can’t hurt me. He forced a smile.
Natasha picked up on his unusual behavior.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“No. I just met Dahlia. She said she’s getting engaged tomorrow.” Dustin put on a calm front.
“Engaged? To whom?” Natasha was taken aback.
“Luis Langford.”
“Luis?” She frowned.
