Gavin looked at me awkwardly:" Darcey, I have no intention of breaking up with you. Either staying at home or going to other companies, I can arrange for you as long as I could!
"No," I simply refuse, "Because you never trusted me, no matter in our relationship or work, and maybe we're just not right for each other."
Gavin was still angry for what happened in the morning. After a few words, he started to quarrel with me again."Darcey, you said that I don't believe you. But the evidence points to you and Goran, and you never explain. How can I believe you?"
"I still keep my words. You know what kind of person am I. If you really don't trust me, then I have nothing to say. Finally, I wish you happiness." I carried my simple luggage to the Hidden Latch.
Gavin didn't ask me to stay. Maybe he already hated me from the bottom of his heart. In fact, I should be thankful. At least now he showed his dissatisfaction with me, and I can still leave with dignity. If we really get married and I relied on him too much, I will really be finished.
Since then, Gavin had never contacted me again. He didn't care whether I'm doing well, nor what I ate or where I lived. It seemed that I never had his participation in my life. Sometimes I would think of the promise I made and the ridiculous bet I made with him. Well, in the end, I lost.
But I have not been defeated by this experience, and life still needed to continue. I wouldn't give up on any man.
Since I don't have a good resume, I can only start with retail. Fortunately, I know a lot about luxury goods. Therefore, the income from selling famous brand leather goods at the counter can make me a living. Anyway, I only needed to concern for myself.
When I was at college, I was interested in luxuries. Although I had no money, I liked to pay attention to them. Now this interest could bring me income, so I was actually very happy for it.
Because I worked hard, and I had accumulated some interpersonal skills in the previous HR work, so I could get started quickly, and my performance could reach the upper and middle level.
There was just one drawback of this job: I would often meet rich ladies and misses who were difficult to handle.
The most important thing was that it was really easy to meet former acquaintances in this field, especially those rich acquaintances.
I don't know if people like Salome were born with the task of shopping. If so, people like me probably are born to serve her.
In front of Salome, there were more than a dozen pairs of the same shoes of different colors, and they were of different sizes. She tried them one by one to kill my time.
I tried my best to maintain my smile. "Miss. Roberts, all the color and sizes of the shoes are here. Is there anything else you need?"
Salome smiled and continued to fiddle with her feet. "Not now. Just stand by my side and wait for me."
In this regard, I could only say yes. There was no other way.
Then Salome came to try on a dozen pairs of shoes in her size, and I couldn't complain.
I knelt down to test her shoes personally. She stared at my head and suddenly sighed. "The fate of a woman may be like this. Especially for people like us, we are born to to unite to marriage. We have no freedom at all."
I did not understand what she wanted to say, and I raised her head and asked, "What do you mean?"
Salome smiled and said, "You should be glad that Gavin didn’t marry you. Otherwise, you and he might not have a good day together. It's better for people to live their own life. You have your freedom, and he and I have things that were out of our control."
