Chapter 2
A while ago, I caught a cold due to the sudden drop in temperature
Charlie was very worried as the medicine he had been taking for several days didn’t seem to be working. So, he drove me to the hospital where Gloria was
Before this, I had only heard about Gloria from him and his friends.
“Gloria, she was the treasure in Charlie’s heart, a person with pure and kind heart, whom Charlie loved and cared for immensely!”
The fact is indeed so, although Gloria is only twenty–four years old, she sounds like she is three or four years younger than me when she speaks, which inevitably makes people want to take care of her more
was clearly our first meeting, yet she seemed to dislike me.
When she was giving me an injection, I could clearly feel that she intentionally inserted the needle crookedly, and the pain from each crooked insertion was extremely noticeable.
In just a few stitches, the back of my hand turned purplish bloe
Although she looked at me somewhat embarrassed, she didn’t say a word of apology
Finally, the kind–hearted nurse on duty couldn’t bear it any longer and found an excuse to send Gloria away. Only then was I able to successfully receive
the infusion.
However, I still felt uncomfortable in my heart, so I asked her to apologize to me
Gloria, unwillingly, mumbled three words to me under Charlie’s intimidation
“I’m sorry.”
After saying that, she ran away with tears in her eyes.
Charlle didn’t go after, and even at that time, he was still sailing and comforting me, saying it’s okay
He could turn around and past my private photos all over the internet, just to vent his anger for his beloved Gloria.
Just before this, he was holding my hand and saying, “After you meet Gloria, we will arrange for both sets of parents to meet and discuss marriage.”
But if he really wanted to marry me, why did he treat me like this?
So, is everything just empty words? Does that mean all the countless times he said “I love you” to me over the past four years were just a joke….
I suddenly remembered a time when one of Charlie’s good friends blurted out after drinking at a gathering. “If it weren’t for Charlie’s concem about his supposed sibling relationship with Gloria, where would it be your turn now?
My heart was gripped together by an inssible pair of hands, causing me to gasp for breath in pain.
I didn’t know how I walked out of the hotel, but at the moment I appeared in the public’s sight, all the gazes directed towards me were filled with scrutiny and mockery.
A huge sense of shame and tear enveloped me as I tremblingly dialed my parents who were conducting experiments abroad.
Because of their special identity, my parents had to go abroad for secret experiments every year for three years. During this period, no one could contact them.
And today, it happened to be the day when my parents‘ experiment ended.
The phone was answered, and the concerned tone of my parents made my already struggling heart burst
After crying bitterly, I wiped away my tears.
“Mom, Dad, I have made a decision. I wanted to join you in the experiment and do something meaningful for my
mylife”
In the past, because Charlie complained to me a few times about not wanting me to be too far away from him, saying that it would make him lovesick, I gave up the idea of joining my parents in the experiment I thought that as long as my relationship with Charlie was stable enough, it seemed fine to continue on this path with him
But I was wrong, he didn’t love me. How could someone who loves me let me fall apart and become the subject of gossip for others after meals?
was so foolish, but luckily, I still had a way out.
