Chapter 365
Derek's face remained cold, and he did not say a word.
Inside the cafe, Sheldon continued to “repent.”
"Nora, I regret it. I really regret it. When I think about what I've done, I really want to slap myself a few times. I don't know what came over me to do that."
"Nora, if you don't want to forgive me, I don't blame you at all. Really, I deserve it. It's all my fault, but... I still beg you to give me one last chance.”
I swear I won't make that mistake again.”
Sheldon begged Nora to forgive him "painfully" while carefully looking at her expression. He had said so, but this bitch was still completely indifferent. He could not help but curse her in his heart. No matter what, it was not easy to meet this woman. Even if he couldn't achieve what he wanted all at once, he had to make some real progress today.
"Nora, all I've been thinking about all this time is the first time we met five years ago. Those days were like a dream.”
"Anyway, you can't deny that we did have some good memories, right? Nora, I really know I'm wrong. Tell me what it takes to forgive me, and I will do it."
Nora was a grateful person who valued relationship. When Sheldon mentioned things that happened five years ago, it really made her sentimental at the memory of the past.
She still remembered that when she woke up in the Joneses five years ago, the first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Sheldon.
She still remembered it very clearly that when she had completely lost her memory, the first thing she saw was Sheldon's gentle and elegant smile. His smile was like a ray of light that made her feel safe.
She seemed to be right. Whether it was in the Joneses or outside, Sheldon had always been the only one who could give her that sense of security.
Every time she saw him looking at her affectionately, her face reflected in his eyes, and warm smiles on the corners of his eyes and brows, she felt reassured.
Plus, Sheldon was very nice to her. No matter what she said, Sheldon would say yes. Day by day, the feeling of dependence or attachment grew deeper.
When Sheldon told her that he loved her and wanted to be with her, Nora remembered that she agreed at once.
She was a person without a past. When she came to her senses again, it was a blessing to meet Sheldon, who was so kind to her.
Before Derek appeared, it never occurred to Nora that there was any possibility of breaking up with Sheldon. Nonetheless, since Derek appeared, her seemingly fixed life was completely changed. Everything seemed to be different.
She had lost her memory, but she suddenly found two people who were important to her in the past. One was her lover, the other was her son.
Then, cracks began to appear in Sheldon's gentle face. When cracks were completely torn, she realized that the cracks covered a face she did not recognize.
Nora, who was lost in her own memories, had no idea that she was being watched by two men. Sheldon was a little excited and thought that he was too clever. Sure enough, this woman was as sentimental as ever.
As long as he talked more about what had happened five years ago, she would definitely forgive him.
Not to mention him, even Derek, who was watching the screen, could not help but feel nervous. After all, Nora was not the same as she was five years ago.
For Nora, Derek was just a man who had been around for only a few months, but Sheldon was the man who had been by her side since she lost her memory.
Derek was the president of the Xavier Group, and he was a masterful man, controlling tens of millions of employees. However, such a comparison made Derek nervous.
Nora gradually wrenched her mind back to the present and looked at Sheldon. Although she had mixed feelings and was sentimental, her determination never wavered.
It was true that she was meek and sentimental, but she was surprisingly stubborn about certain things.
In the matter of Sheldon, she had made up her mind, and she would not change her mind. "Sheldon," she said.
Sheldon looked at her immediately. His eyes were soulful and filled with hope that could not be ignored.
"Actually, I have always wanted to tell you that no matter how much unpleasant things have happened between us recently, I have always been grateful for your care and help over the past five years."
"If you want, we can be good friends."
What?
Sheldon was dumbfounded and looked at her in a daze.
Derek's nervousness subsided. His back, which had been involuntarily straightened, was now relaxed against the back of his chair. His face softened, his lips slightly curved, and he was in a cheerful mood
When Damian saw this, he smiled in his heart and remained a serious expression.
However, he was surprised to Nora's reaction.
Inside the coffee shop.
Sheldon looked at Nora in disbelief. She wanted to be friends with him? He was not gonna be this woman's fucking friend.
He had never said anything so touching in all his life, but this bitch was still not satisfied. What else did she want?
He gave a good performance, but it didn't work. Sheldon was so angry that he almost lifted the table. It took him great efforts to hold back his anger.
"Nora, I don't want to be your friend. I just want to be your boyfriend. I really love you. Please give me a chance. Don't reject me directly.”
When Sheldon thought of what would happen to him if he couldn't finish the task, he was worried and became a little anxious.
Nora sighed, "Sheldon, I'm sorry. It's really impossible for us to be together.”
She was not good at comforting people, so she could only tell him firmly what she thought. She stood up with her bag, "Sheldon, I'll go first."
How could Sheldon let her leave so easily?
"Wait."
When he thought of something, his face took on a ghastly expression for a moment. He looked at other guests in the cafe out of the corner of his eye and his face twitched violently.
He didn't want to do such a shameful thing at all, but this bitch was too heartless to give him any way out, so he could only do this.
He was gonna blame this woman for everything that happened today. As long as he married her, he would torture her.
