Finished
Back then, when Ayla first met Draven, she had been so overwhelmed by his cold and commanding presence that she had no idea any of this had been happening behind the scenes.
“After I went overseas, I thought I would slowly forget you through work. Maybe back then, I didn’t even understand why seeing you marry Troy made me leave that same day. I didn’t think you were anyone special either. Not until I started dreaming about you from time to time, and every time I saw the sea, I thought of you without meaning to… That was when everything began to fall apart.
“I took all these ocean photos whenever I missed you. I wrote down the time and location for every one. I didn’t know why I was doing it, but I still did. So, Ayla, do you understand what that means? Every photo means I was thinking of you.
“Three years later, when I came back, I never expected to run into you at the racetrack on my first day. It was such a ridiculous coincidence that it shocked me. The moment I saw you, only one thought came to mind, Reuniting with an old love.”
Back then, Ayla greeted Draven politely with distance, and he only gave a slight nod before looking away.

Chapter 764 I Love You
cobed
Ayla completely broke down. Tears kept falling. She should have been happy, and she was, but after hearing how everything began, happiness was not the only thing she felt. Her heart ached
too.
Because of regret. Because of fate’s cruelty.
It was the first time just hearing a story hurt this much, and she could not imagine how much regret Draven had carried all these years.
No wonder he became emotional when he said he was jealous of Troy.
If she were in his place, she might have gone mad with jealousy too.
Her heart ached for Draven, and for herself as well. If Troy had never appeared back then, she really might have met Draven much earlier. Maybe they would not have been as mature. Maybe other twists and accidents would still have separated them. But no matter what, it could not have cost her more than staying with Troy had.
