Chapter 1126 - 1122: Goodbye, Never to Meet Again
"How are you doing your job?" In the Golden Era Consortium office, Asher Land’s face was grim, and Robert Williams lowered his head, not daring to slack off.Robert has always been meticulous in his work, but Irene Morton had some ’tricks’ of her own. Originally, Robert was following her well, but midway, Irene said she needed to go to the bathroom. Before this, she hadn’t shown any signs of odd behavior. Who knew she’d take advantage of this moment to escape when he was completely unprepared.
Asher Land took out his phone and called Irene Morton several times, but there was no answer.
He patiently made one last attempt, and this time, Irene finally answered the call.
"Where are you?"
He thought she had started behaving, but unexpectedly, it was all just her facade.
"Why, Brother Asher, did you miss me?"
"Stop with the nonsense."
"Okay..." Irene deliberately dragged out her words, sounding lazy. She looked up at the azure sky and the floating white clouds, and her mood instantly brightened.
"I’ve already left Eastern City, and as for where I am, I’m not planning to tell you."
"What did you say?" Asher’s voice abruptly dropped, becoming much deeper.
"Why, are you reluctant to hear that I’ve left?" Irene’s tone was relaxed, waiting quietly for a response from the other end of the call. But after waiting for a long time, there was still no reply.
Her heart felt somewhat empty. Well, since he wasn’t willing to say anything, it was up to her to speak.
"Brother Asher, I did many things that wronged you and Sister Sophie in the past. Now, I realize my mistakes. Regardless of whether you believe my words, I need to say them." Her mouth curled into a self-deprecating smile; changing her image in Asher Land’s eyes didn’t seem so easy.
"During these days, I’m very grateful for your companionship. Without you, I wouldn’t have had the faith or courage to quit my addiction. So, to repay your kindness during this time, I’ve decided to leave. How about it, isn’t this a surprise? You’ve finally gotten rid of me, this clingy nuisance. Congratulations."
"By the way, could you pass on my thanks to Sister Sophie? Thanks for those three days she ’lent’ you to me." Those three days helped her understand how wonderful it was to have him.
"Don’t worry about me. I’m fine, physically well and feeling good. Brother Asher, goodbye."
Goodbye, indeed means never meeting again.
She took a deep breath from the bottom of her heart and, after a while, spoke with difficulty, "Brother Asher, I love you, always will."
No longer having the courage to wait for him to speak, she hung up the phone and turned off her cell, tossing it into her backpack.
Her eyes felt a bit sore and itchy, as the warm, moist sea breeze hit her. She walked forward in big strides.
Even she felt happy for them; they finally got rid of her, didn’t they?
"Brother Asher, I hope you can be happy with Sister Sophie for the rest of your life..."
...
Asher Land drove back to the Land Family. Before he could get out of the car, Sophie Smith rushed out.
"How was it? The servant said Irene disappeared. Did you find her?" Sophie’s tone was somewhat anxious. Based on the time, Irene had been missing for a day. If she were in Eastern City, Asher would definitely be able to find her.
"She’s left."
Left?
Sophie didn’t understand what Asher meant by "left," "When will she return?"
"She will never return."
