Elars used to be a person of genuine emotions, but Daphne was refined egoist.

He walked to her and looked at her as she squatted on the flower bed. ‘Do you want to freeze to death here and be on the news tomorrow to let people know that a guest died of cold at my engagement party?” he asked.
Daphne heard him and looked up at him with red eyes. “Are you here to take me home?”
Asher was at a loss for words.
Her desolate look seemed to resonate with him.
He was alone in Starfield City and had no one to rely on. He didn’t even have someone to talk to when he was sad.
Asher took a deep breath, picked her up, and stuffed her into the car.
He had just gotten into the car when his phone rang.
Asher took a look. It was a call from Adair.
They had originally agreed to meet again after sending their parents home.
Asher answered the call.
Adair asked, “Where are you? Are you done?”
“My mother isn’t feeling well, and I won’t come tonight. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Adair said, “What’s wrong with her?”
“It’s her old problem. It doesn’t matter.”
“Alright”

At this moment, since Ather said Edith was not in good health, air did not make a fuss
Asher hung up and brought Daphne back.
Instead of sending her to her run–down rental, he asked the driver to take them back to his place.
He has several properties in Starfield City.
This house was mostly empty.
It was also the same one that he and Daphne had rented.
After he had money, he bought this house.
Compared to the big house he lived in now, this house of 1000 square feet was quite small.
But when bored, he liked to come here and look back at his past self. At that time, he was in despair. He wanted to buy a house in Starfield City, but he realized that he could not afford it at all.
But now, not only did he have a house, but he also had a company.
He could be considered a successful person.
Thinking of this, he would feel a sense of accomplishment.
He brought Daphne upstairs.
The room was warm. He placed Daphne on the sofa.
He looked at her half–dead expression and went to get a towel to wipe her face.
Halfway through, he stared at her pitiful look and recalled her determination when she aborted their child.
Asher couldn’t help but wonder what the child was doing now.
He hated her a lot.
But he felt sympathy for her when he saw her like this.
After a pause, he continued to wipe her face…
Then, he put the towel aside and said to Daphne, “Daphne, I don’t know what you’re doing. Don’t think I’ll forgive you just because you look so pitiful. I’ll never forgive you.”
She looked up at him…
Her eyes were like a deer’s. “Thank you for still being willing to look after me.”
Asher sneered. “I’m engaged to someone else. It’s embarrassing for you to be drunk like this. I brought you back to mock you, understand?”
“Asher…” Daphne looked at him and said, “Your fiancee is beautiful. Her family background is also good. You deserve this. I sincerely wish you all the best. Seeing that you’re doing so well, I’m very touched, unlike me…”
She lowered her head. “I can’t go back to the past. We worked hard together, but I failed so badly, I think I’m too bad…”

Chapter 220
Asher looked at her and said, “Who asked you to be such a bad woman?”
He had never been sincere to anyone else.
But to her, he was.
At least when he was in high school, he liked her.
But she pushed him to Elafa…
“That’s right,” Daphne said, “So, a bad woman like me won’t disturb you anymore.”
“You shouldn’t have called me today.”
“I just… missed you so much. I don’t know who I should have called, either. I wanted to give you my blessing, but I missed
you…”
Asher heard her words and said, “You should go to sleep.”
As he spoke, he reached out and helped her to the bed. “I’m going back too.”
He helped Daphne into the bedroom…
He placed her on the bed, but she did not let go of him.
When he tried to get up, she grabbed his hand. “Asher.”
She asked humbly, “Do you remember that it was here… that we had sex?”
It was in this house that she gave him her first time.
She had become his woman here.
Asher’s
eyes darkened when he heard her words.
At this moment, she was staring at him innocently.
Memories of that night came flooding back…
While he was in a daze, her lips had already pressed against his..
*****
That night, Asher did not leave.
He lay beside her and looked at her lying in his arms.
He hated her to death, but what did he do?
He had slept with her, though he thought that he would never do anything with her again.
After Daphne woke up the next day, she looked at the man beside her and leaned over to hug him.
