The black Maybach car door opened, Liana helped the intoxicated Vincent out of the car.
A pair of high–heeled shoes stepped on the cobblestone path, walking unsteadily, not to mention supporting a man.
The two of them stumbled a few steps, Vincent’s body leaning in one direction, and Liana falling into his arms.
She crashed into his arms, her lips stopping just two centimeters away from his, almost kissing him.
As she met his deep gaze, she involuntarily blushed and her eyes seemed to evade.
The ambiguous atmosphere spread between the two of them.
When Liana tried to approach, Vincent suddenly became slightly awake and slowly pushed her away.
He pressed his throbbing temple and walked steadily towards the gate.
Just as he had taken a step forward, Liana suddenly hugged him tightly from behind.
“Vincent! There is a question I have been wanting to ask for a long time.”
In the years since we broke up, have you… even for a moment, thought of me?

Vincent’s footsteps came to a halt, and after a long silence, without turning back, his voice floated lightly.
“No.”
The word “simple” completely shattered all of Liana’s illusions.
Her eyes turned red in an instant, she smiled briefly, and then choked out, “I’m sorry, it turns out, it was all my own imagination.”
She slowly let go of her hand, gave a bitter smile, and turned around to leave.
Vincent suddenly turned around and tightly pulled her into his arms.
He whispered hoarsely, “Not just a moment, but every hour, every minute, every second, I was thinking of you!”
Not far away, Abbie looked and suddenly burst into tears of laughter.
In the past, even though they were thousands of miles apart, he would still secretly go to find Liana time and time again.
At every moment by his side, he was thinking about Liana.
Now, right at the doorstep, he actually confessed his love.
Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, soon they will be able to reunite as they wish. Wait
Liana’s eyes sparkled with joy, and she couldn’t contain her excitement.
“Then we…”
Abbie didn’t continue watching and simply ate a few bites of noodles before returning to her room.
Half an hour later, Vincent pushed open the door.
He pressed his forehead, carrying a slight sweet and sour taste of hangover soup on his body.
The first scene I saw was Abbie sitting in front of the brazier, throwing something into it.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the item thrown into the fire pit by her was none other than a pink diary. The flames engulfed the pages, making it nearly impossible to discern any words written on them.
But he still recognized it at a glance, that was the marriage diary Abbie had written before.
When he was organizing the bookshelf, he accidentally found this diary.
When I opened it, I found that it was filled with Abbie’s written admiration for him.
“I thought that a business alliance wouldn’t involve emotions, but I didn’t expect that I would still fall for him.”
“He smiled at me gently today, and this smile was different from before. Does it mean that he has changed a little towards me too?”
“Abbie liked Vincent, liked him a lot, liked him very much.”

All these thoughts and emotions were meticulously recorded in her diary, carrying all her feelings.
When he returned the diary to her, she was still very shy, but she had never concealed her love.
But suddenly, the diary was completely burned.
Vincent suddenly approached, and the wine instantly woke up halfway, “Why did you suddenly burn this?”
Abbie looked up and smiled calmly, “No reason, it got moldy, so I burned it.”
She watched as the flames slowly extinguished, leaving only ashes in the brazier. Then, calmly and unhurriedly, she cleaned it up.
He watched her movements, but remained silent for a long time, while his heart ached intensely.
She, however, didn’t notice at all and glanced at him, “It’s getting late, time to rest.”
After saying that, Abbie lay on the bed, turned off the bedside lamp, closed her eyes, and prepared to fall asleep, completely unconcerned about the person behind her.
The body, emitting a refreshing scent, approached and lay beside her. Subconsciously, it reached out to embrace her in its arms. Chapter 3

She, however, turned over without leaving a trace, curling up her body to avoid any contact with the person behind her.
Vincent opened his eyes and glanced at his empty embrace in the darkness, his heart tightened suddenly.
On weekends, the Smith family had a monthly family feast, which was very important.
All the people in the Smith family who could be named must attend.
Abbie was no exception.
She sat in the passenger seat of Vincent’s car, once a chatty little sun, but now silently leaning against the car window, gazing at the scenery, saying a word.
Just as they were about to reach the Smith’s manor, Vincent’s phone suddenly rang.
As soon as the call connected, Liana’s feeble cry resounded in the car.
“Vincent, I accidentally sprained my foot. It hurts so much…”
Upon hearing the words, Vincent’s expression instantly changed. The calm and indifferent eyes were filled with panic.
“Don’t move, wait for me at home, I’ll be there right away!”
He quickly asked the driver to stop the car and then looked at Abbie.
“It’s only a few kilometers away from the manor here. I need to go back for a while, so you can go back on your own first.”
Upon hearing this, Abbie was somewhat incredulous.
He clearly knew how important the family banquet was, yet he still chose to abandon her.

She held onto the car door, showing no intention of getting off. “There are many people coming for the family banquet today. I don’t care about how you usually behave, but at least today, you have to give me some respect.”
“Liana should have sought a doctor for her sprained foot, not you. I am sending a doctor to see her now. Even if you love her, there is no need to be so
anxious.”
The atmosphere in the car became tense for a moment, and Vincent’s tone instantly became serious. “What are you talking about? She and I are just friends now, there’s no love or anything.”
“I had to go, you just had to deal with the manor over there.”
As soon as the words fell, he coldly opened Abbie’s car door without any doubt on his face.
“Go down!”
