Terence shook his head, "What can I do?" Then he forced a smile, which was very dazzling to Vanessa.
"I'm sorry, Terry told me that day. I will be careful in the future..." Vanessa's last sentence was stuck in her throat, and Terence suddenly interrupted her...
"There is no need to apologize. I said I had let it go." Terence looked over Vanessa's head at the oil painting above her and said, "Maybe I'm destined to lose her since I adapted to the Ji family."
Vanessa hurriedly comforted, "If the old don't go and the new don't come, you will definitely find a better and more suitable one for you. There are still many girls in the world."
Terence looked back at Vanessa's resolute face and muttered, "Yes, there is someone better." Suddenly, his thin lips curved slightly and he looked at Vanessa with a faint smile.
Vanessa awkwardly moved her face away. When she was about to change the topic, Terence spoke out what she had always wanted to know.
"Don't you want to know what happened between me and her?" Terence suddenly stood up and walked towards the oil painting. He stared at it for a while and then took it off. His eyes were still affectionate, and there was a light that Vanessa couldn't understand.
"She was admitted to the art school in the same year. She loves painting very much. Her dream is to be a painter." Terence touched the painting gently and said, "But she came to this country with me and gave up a good chance to be guided by her master there alone."
"I think you should be more curious about why we broke up and why she was sent to prison, right?" Terence suddenly looked up at Vanessa and said.
Vanessa also stood up and shook her head. "I'm not curious. It's just a pity that I think you..."
"It's not a pity. I believe in fate. It can make two people together go far, and it can also make irrelevant people bind for a lifetime." Terence suddenly burst into laughter, "Right?" He looked at Vanessa and asked.
Vanessa nodded. She believed it.
Seeing Vanessa's nod, Terence seemed to be a little happy. There was also some light in his eyes, but when he looked at the painting, he was still gentle. He said, "So I can understand why Wendy has changed her mind. At that time, I went out early and came back late, and often quarreled with her. In fact, she is also a very strong woman. She began to learn to suspect that if I have changed my heart and even don't love her. "
"But at that time, I was bound too tightly by the Ji family. I was in a bad mood, so I didn't want to talk to her anymore until... She is pregnant. " Terence smiled bitterly. Vanessa looked at Terence in disbelief, but what Terence said next overturned her imagination.
"The baby was not mine. I knew, and she knew too. It was the first time I slapped her, but I regretted it. I begged her to have an abortion. I was willing to choose to know nothing, but she shook her head. " Terence paused for a while, and the lavender on the oil painting was still blooming. "She said she was tired, and I was afraid. At that moment, I really panicked, and I could only make concessions. I said I was willing to help her raise the child, and it didn't matter even if it wasn't mine. I just wanted to keep her."
Vanessa was shocked to hear that. She wondered how much a man loved his wife to make such a concession.
"I couldn't find her the second day after work. She only left me the word 'sorry '." Later, Terence felt that this memory was not terrible or even beautiful, and the last thing he wanted to touch was the latter part.
Vanessa also noticed that. She hurriedly ran to Terence, gently took the painting away and said, "Stop it. I don't want to know what happened later. It's all over, isn't it?" Vanessa put her hand on Terence's arm and comforted him.
Terence chuckled and took Vanessa's hand away. He walked to the sofa and said, "Throw it away. It has been placed for a long time."
Vanessa looked at the painting in his hand. It was a lavender field. There was a girl running forward in the field, and behind her was a boy playing the violin and looking at her. She believed that the girl was Wendy, and the boy was naturally Terence.
Unexpectedly, Terence suddenly said, "That's not me."
"What?" Vanessa didn't respond.
"He is the father of her child." Terence smiled, hiding the loneliness in his eyes. He took a sip of water and looked at the sun outside. "The furniture will be delivered soon. Let me take you to the room first."
"Okay!" Terence had already gone upstairs. Vanessa didn't throw the painting away, but quietly put it into her suitcase when he was not paying attention.
"Come on in." Terence shouted upstairs.
"Oh, I see." Vanessa hurriedly ran up.
"This is my room. You can change all the furniture except that cabinet." Terence opened the door of a room.
Vanessa looked around the room and found that it was decorated in the same style as the living room. The decoration was very neat, which was indeed very similar to the clean and tidy style that Terence usually gave people.
But hold on, she suddenly realized what Terence meant.
"Where is my room?" Vanessa's eyes widened as she asked. This was the most important question, okay?
Terence raised his eyebrows and looked at her as if he was looking at a fool. "You seem to have forgotten why you came here, don't you?"
Vanessa looked up at Terence and said, "You... Really? " Did they have to live in the same room every day? She couldn't imagine the feeling of lying on the bed with such a big ice cube.
Terence suddenly approached Vanessa, looked down at her eyes and said, "Is it a lie? I'm looking forward to it. There are rumors that I can't be sexually abstinent. I hope Vanessa can prove it for me in the future. " He suddenly got close to her ear and blew ambiguously.
"I'm going to check the room." Vanessa moved aside, held her breath and walked away from Terence. Oh my God! She felt her heart was about to explode. How could they get along with each other in the future?
Clang! Clang! Clang
Vanessa's phone rang at the right time, calming her down a little.
