Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 427

Chapter 227

In the past, Irvin would pick up right away whenever I called him. But not this time.

He just stared at my call on the screen. His heart felt like it was being ripped apart. It was so painful that he could hardly breathe

He didn’t dare to answer, but he wanted to so badly. He knew he no longer had the right, but he still couldn’t stop himself from wanting to answer the call.

He wanted to hear my voice again. And to see me again.

Unaware of his inner conflict, I was about to hang up after the long wait. But then, he picked up.

“Hello.”

He had only said that one word, but I could sense that something was off. However, I wasn’t in the mood to wonder why at that moment. I only wanted to deal with things directly and free myself from this mess.

It would either be a happy or a bad ending for us. I no longer wanted to remain in this pain and confusion.

“I need to talk to you, face–to–face. Let’s meet at the café we used to go to. When are you free?” I asked.

Hearing that I wanted to meet him, his hand tightened around his phone. His grip was so strong, it was as though he was about to break it.

If things hadn’t happened the way they did, Irvin would have been overjoyed to hear me ask to meet him. He might have even lost his mind with happiness.

But now, he only felt that the pain in his heart was stronger than he could handle. He didn’t know how to face me and was too

afraid to do so.

But he also knew that if I wanted to talk in person, it must be very important. He suppressed his emotions and said, “I’m at Claudeville. I can be there right away.”

Even though he hadn’t come to see me for the past week, he came to Claudeville and stayed here the moment he heard I was

back.

“Okay. I’m heading over now.”

With that, I hung up before he could say anything.

Then I got dressed and applied layers of concealer to hide the dark circles from the sleepless nights I’d been having.

I drove to the café. As I stayed closer, I got there before him.

I walked to our exclusive private room and sat down, leaning back in the chair. Just as I was about to gather my scattered thoughts, Cordelia called.

“Emi, you need to check my message! That jerk Irvin already has a kid with Grace while he’s shamelessly going after you!”

Her words hit me like a bolt of lightning.

My mind went completely blank, and I couldn’t think.

It took me a long time before her voice brought me back to reality.

“Emi, are you okay?” she asked.

Cordelia knew me better than anyone. Although I had previously decided to marry someone else to completely move on from Irvin, she knew I hadn’t truly let go of him. I still cared about him.

She also knew that I couldn’t easily let go of my feelings. To truly

“Emi…” She wanted to say something to comfort me, but she did asshole! He’s not worth it!”

It took me a while to be able to speak again. “It’s… It’s not that I c

I really didn’t care about Irvin. Really!
