Chapter 11
The moment he saw me, a regained light appeared on his thin face.
“Annalise, I knew you wouldn’t bear to see me suffer.”
“I knew I shouldn’t have used the strategy of pretending to be hurt to manipulate you, missed you so much. I wanted you to come back home with me.”
In the nest he was deeply trapped in, tears filled up.
He looked at me like a begging dog with a wagging tail. I told him expressionlessly.
but I really
“You keep chasing after me like this, and Isabel will come after me and kill me again. Spare me, spare yourself tool”
Asher did not give up because of my indifference.
“Annalise, if she dared to harm you, I would make sure she paid for it this time!”
“With me around, she could never harm you even a bit!”
and
“She was released from prison and came to beg for my forgiveness. I softened my heart for a moment and accepted her apology. Little did I know that her initial approach toward you was with ill intentions. Otherwise, I would have definitely extinguished her love for me right from the beginning! And then, all these things wouldn’t have happened later on.”
No matter how well–crafted the deceitful lie was, I would not have believed it.
The little essays on his phone revealed without a doubt his feelings for both me and Isabel.
Look at me and say you love me.
Looked at Isabel and told her that I loved her.
Anyway, as long as I didn’t present any evidence, he always believed that he wouldn’t be exposed.
He was just taking advantage of my love for him, playing with my true feelings.
“Annalise, didn’t you say that as long as I don’t let go, you will never let go? It was only after losing you that I realized you have always been the one I love the most. I was just temporarily blinded and lost my way. Can you give me a chance to start over?”
I did indeed say this sentence.
But how could he not let go? He clearly realized after I let go that he couldn’t have it both ways, so He turned back and begged for forgiveness.
The man who was once admired and adored like a hero tore off his disguise and revealed his true
despicable nature.

Was I blind? I couldn’t see his true face for ten years.
“Asher, If you didn’t want to put my life in danger anymore, let gol”
“The favor you once saved me, I have repaid with ten years of deep affection and two lives.”
“You and I, we are really over.” Asher, puzzled, struggled to sit up and tried to hold my hand, but I gently avoided it.
“Annalise, what two lives? I don’t understand what you mean…”
How could he not understand?
His evasive gaze betrayed him.
When you took Isabel to the hospital for an abortion, I lost our second child.”
wanted to call you to inform you, but you were busy, busy taking care of her, busy taking her to pray and hang a lock of unity.”
“Oh, those confessions in your phone, I spent a whole two days and finished reading all of them.”
“So, you go back and find your Isabel, I don’t want to lose my life because of you anymore!”
Asher just stared at me blankly, not even realizing that tears were welling up in his eyes.
said everything here and turned around to leave.
He pulled out the syringe and chased after me. It was still the bustling hospital lobby, and he knelt down on one knee.
Tremblingly, he took out the ring from his pocket and pleaded desperately.
“Annalise, please, marry me, okay?”
“If you don’t want to go back to your country, I will find a job abroad to settle down with you.
“Even if you wanted me to become a son–in–law, I really can’t be without you!”
The tall and o
and graceful figure that I have dreamt of countless times finally knelt before me this time.
The engagement ring was also a style that I liked.
Bigger and more dazzling than ever before.
But his body and his heart were both dirty.
Tlifted my foot and avoided him.
No matter how he held the diamond ring and cried his heart out in the crowd, he never looked back.
