I would have believed Robbie's answer if I didn't know the secret in his heart by accident.
But it was the first time that I questioned and started to think about it.
"How complicated do you want it to be? If I really want to have something with Michelle, I wouldn't have waited for Rogelio's waking up. As for a vegetable who has been in a coma for one year, few people will think that he will wake up again. "
"Do you still love her?"
Robbie looked at me as if he didn't understand what I said.
I swallowed and asked again, "do you still love her?"
In fact, Robbie's reaction for a long time was the answer to me. I asked just to confirm if he would be honest to me or deny it.
"If I say I don't love her, you must think I'm hypocritical. But if I say I love her, I don't think it is the right answer. I hated her so much because I used to love her with all my heart. It's said that love is as deep as hate. Do you still think this is still love? "
"You hate her? Why? Because you love her, but she loves Rogelio deeply? "
Robbie looked at me like he was smiling at a fool.
"If love and hate are only simple things, perhaps life isn't that complicated."
Robbie drank on his back and lit a cigarette in his other hand.
"Didn't people say that if you really love someone, you should let her go and bless her? What's more, that person is your brother. "
Robbie puffed his cigarette and looked at me. "What do you want to say?"
"Since you have to let her go, why not make it a little bit complete? Help me get divorced. "
"Is this why you invited me to drink today?"
"No, I saw you in that interview and thought you would like to drink."
Robbie put down the beer in his hand and gave me an evil smile.
I was not used to such a smile, but in the next second Robbie suddenly leaned towards me and kissed my lips.
I dodged nimbly and pushed him with my hands.
I furiously asked, "what are you doing?"
Robbie still looked at me with an evil smile. "Do you love me?"
"Not at all."
"Then divorce Rogelio and marry me."
"No way!"
I frowned and looked at Robbie, wondering what he was thinking.
"I'm rich. I have more money than you think."
"It has nothing to do with that."
Robbie constantly asked, "so what does it have to do with?"
"I don't love you."
Robbie lowered his head and smiled. He looked askance at me, a wry smile curled the corners of his mouth. "But you didn't love Rogelio and you married him, didn't you?"
"I had no choice at that time."
Robbie no longer looked at me, but quietly asked, "what's the feeling to live with someone you don't love?"
"My relationship with Rogelio is not suitable for you to make reference."
"But I suddenly want to have a try. Why do some people laugh to say that you are my only love while they don't love each other?"
"Even if you helped me, I don't want to do your experiment work."
Robbie took a drag on his cigarette, raised his head and blew two rings of smoke.
