Chapter 266 Our Past
There was no doubt that Amanda had put on a thick mask and gloves to keep herself warm. She was afraid of coldness the most. She narrowed her beautiful eyes as she looked at Darren.
A stream of feelings welled up in his heart. But he resisted it. Looking at Amanda, he asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I forgot something here," Amanda proposed.
"What a clumsy excuse!" Darren sneered. "I have nothing to talk about with you."
"Don't flatter yourself. Open the door and I'll leave with a file. I left it in the living room. Tomorrow morning the Cheng Group will use it," Amanda replied. Amanda decided to stay in the hotel. She had some savings with her. She also found that she was in need of an important document when she sorted it out. She called Darren, but he probably didn't answer her phone. As a result, the key of the house was put on the table by Amanda earlier. She had no choice but to wait for him here.
She was freezing cold here, and Darren had to taunt her even if he came back. She was grateful that he hadn't brought any other woman back. If he did that, she might have a fierce fight for half a day with that woman, and then the only thing she could do was to become the iceberg.
When she saw Darren, he was as cold as the first time that she had met him. Although Amanda pretended to be strong, she felt a pain in her heart when he got close to her. Because he had been as cold as ice to her, she was a little depressed. Did she really lose her love?
But it didn't matter. She could survive without him. She must protect herself.
"Come in," Darren said lightly. "You should avoid arousing suspicion now. If you are photographed by reporters, will you follow your will?"
As soon as he finished her words, Amanda ran into the house as quickly as she could, like a small grey haired mouse. It was very warm in the room. Suddenly, Amanda couldn't help but sneeze. She rubbed her nose, turned on the light and went straight to the living room. There was a document on the table when she got up and picked it up. After she left, Rose didn't read it out curiously.
Amanda picked up the files and was about to leave. However, she ran into Darren and was shocked. She didn't know why Darren stood behind and stood so close to her. She raised her head and looked at Darren in surprise, "What are you doing? You scared me to death."
Darren lowered his head and looked at Amanda. He gave a cold smile and asked, "Amanda, are you seducing me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The more she spoke, the more eager she became. She wanted to bypasse him, but he grabbed her shoulder and lowered his head to kiss her.
The feeling of lips and teeth getting together was so familiar to Amanda. She saw the happy scenes of the past. She couldn't help but feel bitter and sorrowful. Was the happiness in the past a dream, or the marriage that was on the verge of breaking? If she could choose, she wished everything was a dream. When she woke up, she could see that she was still with Darren happily.
But it was impossible. After a while, Amanda recovered and found her face wet. She wiped her face and tears fell down her cheeks unconsciously. How happy she was in the past, and how aggrieved she was now.
Women were indeed emotional animals. No matter how direct the injury was, as long as he kissed her, her mental defense would collapse like jelly built projects.
She held on to her anger and pushed him away. She looked at him and asked excitedly, "What are you doing, Darren? Aren't you going to divorce me? Why do you kiss me?"
She gasped, her cheeks reddened because of the kiss. There were tears in her eyes which sparkled like crystal. Her voice mixed with anger and sadness, which was complaining of his ruthlessness and his fickleness.
Darren really wanted to hold her in his arms and tell her how much he loved her and how painful he was. But the bet with Nicholas was his last chance. He regretted how he couldn't control himself just now. If it wasn't Amanda who pushed him away at last, he might not let her go.
"What's wrong? We haven't gotten divorced yet. Isn't it normal for a couple to have sex?" Darren said.
"It's normal for a husband and a wife to have sex. It's also normal that you have sex with other woman. You're a freak, an asshole! Who do you think I am? I'm telling you that I'm not that kind of woman you asked me to come and go. If you want a divorce, we will have a divorce and never meet again!" Amanda pulled up a piece of tissue to wipe her lips as if she was disgusted with Darren.
She took the document and was about to leave.
Suddenly, she heard a voice behind her, "One hundred thousand. Stay with me for the whole night."
He asked directly for the price.
Amanda was stunned. Then she turned around and looked at Darren in disbelief. She couldn't believe her ears.
Darren gave her a meaningful smile and said, "I think you might have forgotten one thing. Now that we are divorced, the Cheng Group won't show any mercy to you. Since Sheryl was in the intensive care ward, his medical expenses are not small. Are you sure you can afford it?"
Sheryl.
Amanda was determined to pay for Sheryl's medical expense. It was the Cheng family which used to be in charge of the medical treatment, but now the Cheng family would certainly refuse to pay the fee. She didn't know that the person who messed up everything like her would come to in the Cheng family.
The road in front of her seemed to be filled with huge stones all of a sudden, so heavy that she could hardly breathe.
"But since we are husband and wife, you can take away the jewelry. I don't like to be mean to women. Any one of them is enough for Sheryl's medical expenses," Darren said lightly.
Amanda turned around and looked at Darren, who was also looking at her. His seat was glinting in the light, which made her unable to see his face. Amanda felt a little sad, but she quickly turned her face and said, "No, I don't need them. They are for your wife in the future." Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
'I am just myself. My marriage was not treasured from the beginning, and now I can't be taken good care of it too. I don't want to get involved in everything here anymore, ' she thought.
