Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 238

Iglanced at Irvin but didn’t respond.

Irvin knew what I cared about most. So, he knew I wouldn’t carelessly go against him after the threat he just made. Thus, he didn’t stop me from leaving.

When I returned to the party, I saw Cordelia holding a drink to the lips of a chiseled stud. Judging by the rosiness of her cheeks and the sparkle in her eyes, she was having a great time.

She immediately released the man when she saw me walking over to her.

“Where have you been, darling? Don’t tell me you’ve already picked a guy so fast? Sure, all the men here are hot, but even so, you still need to be cautious. At least check if they’re disease–free–STDs are so rampant nowadays,” Cordelia said.

She had always been very cautious and made sure to use protection despite her wanton lifestyle. That was why I never worried about her when it came to this.

I smiled and told her that wasn’t the case–I had just gone to the washroom earlier. I didn’t tell her about what happened with Irvin because I didn’t want her to worry.

had thought of ways to kill Irvin on the way back. But once I calmed down, I realized how unrealistic it was. I shouldn’t destroy my future over him.

The only way I would truly be free of him was if I kicked him out of my company. Then, he would be left with nothing and wouldn’t have the means to do anything to me. That being said, doing so would require a lot of careful planning, especially since we had a legally binding contract.

Still, it was absolutely necessary to eradicate all future possibilities of us reconciling.

I didn’t abandon my plan to sleep with another man despite Irvin’s threat. I wanted to remove all chances of us getting back together, after all, and I wouldn’t refrain from being self–destructive if it came down to it.

I couldn’t and absolutely wouldn’t allow myself to go back to being a lovesick idiot who stayed with Irvin even though it put my life in danger.

Thus, I asked Cordelia to pick a handsome man she had vetted for me. I was going to take action once Irvin left.

He might have threatened me and told me not to do this, but I could always do it secretly. Then, he wouldn’t know

about it.

He could wait all he wanted for me to regain my memories for all I care.

Cordelia could tell I was serious and praised me for being open–minded. She might not have said it outright, but I could tell what she was thinking.

She had been constantly worried that I would go back to being a hopeless romantic and run back to Irvin’s side. Thus, to make sure that didn’t happen, she reluctantly gave me the contact information of the best–looking and most well–mannered guy she had met.

I chatted the Hottie up once we were back at our villa. After talking for a while, I felt he was a pretty good person. So, I decided he would be the one I would sleep with. Then, I washed up and went to bed.

Perhaps it was because of everything that had happened today, because that night, I dreamt about the old me for

the first time.
