Chapter 129
Nelissa was pressed in front of his chest by Zayden. Her familiar and warm embrace had become suffocating and unfamiliar. She raised her head to look at him, not understanding what he meant. What did he go back on his words? Her mother had always been very kind to him.
"Your mother knew that we were secretly in love a long time ago. She talked to me and promised that I would let you marry me." Zayden's voice was very low, and his bloodshot eyes looked through Nelissa at the unconscious mother on the hospital bed, looking gloomy.
Nelissa's body stiffened. She had actually...
She thought that her mother didn't know about it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have wanted to arrange for her to date other group's young masters. She had rejected it several times. Because she liked Zayden and was secretly dating him. However, she didn't dare to tell her mother. She was worried that her mother wouldn't agree.
It turned out that his mother acquiesced in Zayden. Then why...
"She went back on her word!" Zayden said coldly. He lowered his head and looked at the Nelissa, who had been protecting him with her life. He was so angry that blue veins bulged on his neck. "She knows that I like you. I'm willing to give up my ambition for you and stay by your side. I can wait for you to grow up. When you grow up, we can get married! Nelissa, I really like you. I don't have any false feelings for you."
"Your mother is using me!"
"She never thought of letting you marry me. She just used me to protect you and then worked for her company. After that, she began to arrange for you to date other rich young men. She wanted me to give up on you. But during that time, you didn't listen to her and didn't arrange for her to meet rich young men. She could only talk to me privately and let me take the initiative to break up with you."
The more Zayden spoke, the lower and hoarser his voice became. He hugged his arms tightly, and the muscles in his arms tightened as if they were being suppressed. "I was too poor then. I wasn't worthy of you, and I couldn't give you a good material life. My master's mother was more vicious than me, and I knew that I could only get what I wanted more than she was."
"Nelissa, ambition and you, you were the one I chose at the beginning. But in the face of reality, I had no money and no background, only a true heart was useless! In the end, I would only end up losing two things. I was not willing to lose everything. What I did later was only to get what I deserved. It was your mother who forced me, she..."
"Pa!" A clear slap sounded. Zayden tilted his face slightly, and his tongue poked the right side of the face that had been slapped. For a moment, there was a flash of cruelty in his eyes, and he was no longer as good-tempered as before. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Nelissa. His gloomy face darkened when he saw Nelissa's tearful eyes.
Nelissa held back her tears and heartache as she looked straight at him. "Zayden, don't you try to find a reason for your greed. When have I ever cared about whether you're poor or not? You've been with me for so long, how can you not understand me? If I had cared about this, I wouldn't have scolded my mother again and again. I don't like men other than you. I won't date others. My heart is on your side. I even wanted to elope with you."
"If you don't have money, then you don't have money. Who told you to like me? I've already made up my mind to live a hard life with you. You're the one who feels inferior and has no courage to walk these crooked paths!"
"You have money now, and you have everything. But do you like me? I don't like you anymore..." Nelissa said with a sarcastic smile. Tears could not help falling down her pale cheeks.
The most painful thing was not breaking up. The most painful thing was to watch the person she liked get worse step by step and become hopeless little by little. As for her, she could not change it.
Zayden reached out to wipe the tears on Nelissa's face, wanting her to stop crying. When he heard that she didn't like him anymore, he felt very empty in his heart. In the past five years, no matter how much he got, he couldn't fill his heart with hope. It was as if he lacked a backbone, lonely and lonely.
The only Nelissa he wanted to share with him the most was not here.
Nelissa turned away her crying face, reached out to shake off Zayden's hand, walked to the bedside of his mother, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and shouted, "You go, don't come again, don't let me see you again. You can change into what you want, and I won't hold any hope for you anymore. I can be fine alone now. I just want my mother to wake up. In the past, I didn't want anything. Take it, be rich!"
From the age of twelve to eighteen, it was Zayden who was taking care of her. It had been more than six years, and Zayden was the one who had helped her with her height every month. Then, he took photos of her with a camera and smashed them one by one. Every year, he would record her.
Zayden used to be one of Nelissa's most important relatives.
Six years was not a short period of time. It could leave countless unforgettable memories in a person's heart. Who would have thought that all of a sudden, this love would collapse? Nelissa never thought that Zayden would betray her in front of her. The double betrayal of love and loyalty was like a nightmare, completely disappointing this man.
Zayden hugged Nelissa from behind. His thin body was still as delicate as it was in his memories. He had once doted on her so much that he truly doted on her with all his heart. "I won't leave. I want you to be with me. I don't think I was wrong about my betrayal back then. The reason why I did this is partly for myself, and partly for you."
"I admit that I am very greedy, but I don't want you to accompany me to suffer. I have suffered too much in the past, and I have experienced all kinds of hardships. I know how much torture it is. How can I let you put away your precious food and clothing and not live with me?"
Nelissa shook her head and didn't want to hear any more explanations.

Love used to be sacred and beautiful in her heart. In the end, she was crushed by Zayden's words of reality. Susan satirized her that she was very stupid and naive. She had been used to living a good life since she was a child, so how could she know the hardships of the people at the bottom?
Perhaps both she and Zayden should face reality.
He was actually different from the future she pursued.
Zayden held Nelissa in his arms and didn't let her get rid of him. He explained to her word by word, "I know what I said. You can't listen to me now, but I still want to tell you that I am a liar. Five years ago, I didn't sleep with Susan. What you saw that day... I don't deny that I was lured by Susan. She is very similar to you in some aspects. You know that she has been imitating you. I made the mistake that men would make."
"That day... I was in a bad mood and very annoyed. You refused to understand me. I am a man and I have a normal physiological desire, but you are still so young. I didn't want to touch you, so I hugged Susan. But in the end, I still pushed her away. The person I really want in my heart is you."
"What you saw was just a kiss between me and Susan. We really didn't do it later. If I knew that it would make you misunderstand and make me lose you for five years, I wouldn't touch Susan! Come back to me, Nelissa. I beg you to give me a chance to correct my mistake."
Nelissa didn't say anything and just looked down.
She didn't want to think about what happened that day anymore.
Susan had been fighting with her. When there was a conflict between her and Zayden, Susan directly caused a relationship crisis between her and Zayden. Before Zayden could save her, she ran away from home and fell into Susan's trap. But she didn't regret her decision in the past. It might have been a good one. The fate between her and Zayden had only ended at that moment.
She gradually calmed down and pushed Zayden's hand away inch by inch. She was very strong, and she was also very strong. She pulled and saw each other in the air, and her fingers were red.
She told him clearly, "Just take it as a misunderstanding, but I told you to choose. You and I can only keep one person. You still want to keep Susan and hide me. I am no longer the former Nelissa. You are no longer my most important person. I will not sacrifice myself for your career. The path we want to take is different. I wish you go farther and farther. In addition, I will not come back to you."
"Go back and tell Susan that as long as she doesn't provoke me, I can make her the daughter of the Quest family. Zayden, I want to tell you with reality that I, Nelissa, am not afraid of suffering. As long as it is the life I want to live, I am not afraid. It is you who underestimated me and made the wrong choice!"
Nelissa tried her best to get rid of Zayden, but in the end, she pushed him away. It seemed that she was spoiled, but she was not afraid of being strong. She had the arrogance of a rich young lady!
"You can go." Nelissa pointed to the door of the ward and said to Zayden.
"Do you really want to be so cruel to me?" Zayden clenched his fists without any expression on his face, hiding his anger.
"Don't come again in the future." Nelissa didn't soften her heart and no longer looked at Zayden.
"Okay, you forced me!" Zayden was so angry that he laughed. He took out his mobile phone and called his assistant in front of the window, asking him to take his private pen and lightning to the hospital quickly.
After hanging up the phone, Zayden turned to look at Nelissa. He didn't have a pair of gentle eyes and looked very heartless. "Wait for me for half an hour. I have something to show you. It has something to do with your mother." Nelissa frowned. "What's that?"
Zayden didn't say anything. "You'll know soon."
Nelissa had a bad feeling. She looked at Sonya, who was lying on the bed, and frowned slightly.
Zayden moved a chair for Nelissa to sit on. He held her down when she didn't sit down. Then he looked at Sonya and said to her lightly, "By the way, before you came here, I talked to your mother's doctor. He didn't reveal too much to me, but I know who he is. With his help, your mother has a very high chance of waking up. I'm also looking forward to seeing your mother regret that she went back on her word."
"What on earth are you..." Nelissa looked at him hesitantly.
Zayden stood there, with Nelissa sitting there. He looked down at her from above, his handsome smile no longer gentle. "Nelissa, since neither you nor I can bring back the previous Nelissa and Zayden, why don't we start over from now on?" Nelissa shook her head under Zayden's gaze. He sneered. "Then just wait and see."
