Despite looking grim, Benjamin didn’t say anything, as he knew I was right about it. According to his personality, I would always be the type of person he despised. After all, I wasn’t clever and would only cry like a loser when I faced issues. Moreover, I had noticed him mocking me disdainfully several times when he saw me getting bullied before.
A while later, he suddenly said, “What I’m going to say next might make you laugh at me, but the girl with the pink hairpin was my first love. Do you think I’m an idiot?”
I shrugged. “A bit. Anyway, who doesn’t have a few dark incidents in their past that they hope to erase? Stop dwelling on it. We’re all grown up now, aren’t we? Usually, we’ll bury our first love in our hearts. Nonetheless, thank you for loving that girl sincerely. She’s felt it and was happy.”
All of a sudden, Benjamin walked over and hugged me tightly. Just as I planned to push him away, he quickly backed away. “I’ll go overseas the day after tomorrow as per my father’s instruction. Since I’m too depressed currently, I need time to heal. Can you send me off while wearing the pink hairpin? Just treat it as fulfilling my childhood dream.”
A moment later, I nodded hesitantly. “I’ll go.” It’s for the sake of drawing an end to his dream.
“Thank you, and sorry.”
Thank you for giving me a dream. At the same time, sorry for hurting you before.
I was in time to see Sabrina greeting the guests with the baby in her arms when I returned to the hall joyfully. Instantly, I brushed off everything that happened a few moments ago and rushed over to help her.
At that instant, two people suddenly entered the hall. Upon sensing their presence, many guests quickly stood up in shock. The crowd near the entrance went into an uproar.
“Isn’t that Mark Goldstein?”
