Chapter 22
Grace actually understood their conversation at that time!
She had long known that she and Sofia had gotten married, and she was planning to keep it a secret from everyone.
Antonio was extremely anxious.
He thought he could hide it well, being able to balance Sofia and Grace.
He thought he was cautious, but for Sofia, it was just a past obsession. He was angry that she left with another man and almost went crazy trying to make her stay with him forever.
But she was also the person who hid, not deliberately letting Grace know about their relationship, after all, the person she loved could only be Grace since she became blind that year.
But he didn’t expect that she had learned French, she understood the conversation, she discovered everything!
But how could she be so heartless? He was only obsessed with the past. and he was just pitiful for Sofia. How could she delete all her information and completely disappear from his world?
The sight in front of me was blurry, as tears gradually overflowed and made everything wet.
He remembered those years when Grace accompanied him, in the midst of darkness, with only Grace’s voice firm and warm.
“Don’t be afraid, Antonio. I will always be with you
“Forever?”
“As long as you didn’t do anything to hurt me, of course it would be forever.”
At that time, Antonio embraced the young girl in his arms, his voice choked with emotion.
“I would never let you down, Grace. So, let’s make a deal, you will always be by my side.”
But when exactly did it change?
It was Sofia’s repeated pleas, or Sofia’s crying and aggrieved face.
Gradually, he came to think of Grace being by his side as a matter of course. He began to recall the person who had once abandoned him, and that person happened to be destitute, waiting for him to save them.
He confidently believed that he could firmly grasp everything in his
hands.
But he forgot that, although Grace was all alone, she was never one to compromise.
Rather than tormenting oneself internally, it is better to completely leave oneself.
Grace knew him too well. She was well aware that if Antonio found out about her departure, he would definitely try to stop her and use every means to make her stay.
So, she left everything behind, including all the ways to find her and completely disappeared into Antonio’s world.
After understanding all of this, Antonio suppressed the dissatisfaction
his heart.
“Grace, it was impossible, I couldn’t let you go!”
He murmured Grace’s name over and over again, his eyes filled with longing for her.
“Grace, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have treated you like this for another woman.”
“You can treat me however you want, hit me, scold me, it doesn’t matter. but can you please not leave my side?”
He said sorry countless times, his voice became hoarse.
But the person who should have heard it was not by his side.
No matter how much you say, it is all in vain.
“Grace, I would definitely find you, no matter the ends of the earth, we would always meet again!”
Antonio’s eyes turned cold, and he said resolutely.
He would never let go; Grace will always be his.
He would admit his mistakes, kneel down to apologize, try to find a way to make her forgive him, but he would never allow Grace to leave him.
Antonio’s eyes were filled with determination as he tremblingly opened his phone’s photo album. He devoutly kissed the photo of her on his phone.
