Chapter 127 Their Reunion (Part Two)
It was Rita who broke the terrible silence first. "I'm back, Chason."
"You Why are you here?" Chason came back to his senses from the shock. He looked at this once familiar face, but his eyes were full of coldness.
A sense of loss instantly occupied Rita's heart. Over the years, she had imagined countless times when she would meet with him again, but she did not expect that they would meet in such a place. What was more unexpected was that his reaction was not excitement or surprise, but questioning. Rita said with a faint smile, as if she didn't care about his questioning at all. "Of course I will come to see you when I come back. When I came here, you happened to be in the meeting room. Larry asked me to wait for you in the office." Chason's face changed slightly, "It's Larry's fault. I'm sorry."
"Chason! Do you have to be like this?" She felt as if a knife were piercing her heart when she saw his politeness and alienation. Although she had guessed all this, she couldn't accept it when she really faced it. Five years had passed.
In the past five years, he had waited for her for more than four years. At the same time, he tried to forget her for four years until Claire appeared.
He had never thought that he would fall in love with Claire, and that kind of love became clearer and clearer as time went by. It was Claire who let him know what true love was.
In the past, he thought that his affection for Rita in his life was his only love. Later, he finally understood that that kind of love was more a kind of unwillingness to the regret in his youth than love. He didn't want to admit defeat, so he always hoped that the girl who left him first could come back to him one day. He didn't want her to come back, but he wanted her to surrender.
"Rita, I'm sorry." In the end, he softened his voice. After all, she was his old lover, and also the childhood sweetheart that grew up together. Since he had let it go, there was really no need to take it to heart. "I was too emotional just now. You know, I don't want others to enter my office without my permission."
Others? Rita's heart ached. In his eyes, she was already someone else. Even Larry, who knew some of their past, didn't treat her as an outsider when he saw her. But in his eyes, she was an outsider, "It's okay. We haven't seen each other for so many years. Can you sit down and catch up?"
"Of course." Chason nodded and invited her to the coffee shop on the top floor of the company like a gentleman.
The coffee shop was newly built after Chason took over the Jiang Group. As an open-air coffee shop, standing on the top, one could see the most prosperous area of S City. Looking down at all this, Rita sighed in her heart, "I remember that when we traveled to Italy, we also went to a coffee shop similar to this structure."
He smiled faintly and said, "Yes, the inspiration for building this coffee shop did start from that trip."
The two of them sat in the coffee shop on the top floor and chatted casually. For a moment, they fell silent again.
"How have you been these years?" After a long time, he asked slowly.
There was a strong sadness in her heart, and she said slowly, "After all, without you, how can I be good these years?"
Chason took a sip of coffee. He knew that it was inevitable for an old lover like them to meet again. However, he still didn't want to face those topics. It seemed that if he didn't mention them, those things in the past had never happened. "How long are you going to stay this time?"
With a bitter smile, Rita knew that he was trying to change the topic. "You don't have to do that, Chason. As the leader of the business circle, you are very clear about the current situation of our Mo family, and why I came back. "
Yes, he knew it clearly. But because of her, for so many years, as long as it came to Mo family's business, he would definitely avoid it.
For a long time, she had been an untouchable memory in his youth. Chason sighed, "If there is anything I can help, I will try my best."
"No, thanks." Rita leaned against the chair. The two people who used to be so intimate were now awkwardly talking about something here. "You know why I came to you."
He kept silent for a long time, knowing that some of the topics were not avoided. "What do you want to say?"
Rita stood up and almost threw herself into Chason's arms. "It was not what you thought five years ago. In fact, I didn't want to break up with you because we were not in the same place. At that time, I was found to have a shadow on my uterus, and it was very likely that I was infertile. It's okay if you have other diseases, but this matter involves the descendants of the Jiang family, I have to leave you.
Five years ago, the position of the heir of Chason had been determined. If nothing went wrong, they would be engaged. However, it was at that time that she was diagnosed with this disease. Afraid of being entangled with each other, Rita found an excuse and ruthlessly broke up with him.
After leaving Chason, Rita tried her best to forget him. After all, she still had a long life. Besides, her disease was not a threat to her life except that it was difficult to get pregnant.
She tried to start a new life and leave Chason. She didn't worry about having no child. In fact, there were many DINK families abroad that were unwilling to have children. She tried to find a new boyfriend, but after so many years, she knew that she could no longer deceive herself.
She loved him and knew that he was the man who loved her most in the world.
"If it's only about the Mo family, I won't come back on behalf of them. A month ago, I went to have a check-up and the shadow on my uterus disappeared. I can be a normal mother. At that time, I just wanted to return home as soon as possible and tell you everything. But I found that you married another girl. "00000000☐☐☐☐
