No Renewal My Contract Husband (Nella and Alfred) novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249 Let’s End It

“Nella, let’s start over, okay?”

When he said this, the pleading in his eyes was almost spilling out.

Anished

The old Nella probably never would have dreamed that one day, the untouchable Alfred would speak to her with such a humble, pleading look and tone.

But Nella shook her head. “Let’s end it here.”

“No!”

Alfred stood up from the chair in panic, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Nella. A thin mist gathered in his

eyes.

“How can we end it here?! We can’t do that.”

Seeing that Alfred was getting emotional, Nella felt a little helpless.

“Don’t do this. It’s not appropriate.”

Not appropriate for their relationship, and not fitting for his status as a CEO.

Nella’s calm, indifferent reaction only made it harder for Alfred to endure.

With reddened eyes, he still refused to give up and stared at her.

“We can start over from the very beginning.”

Nella frowned slightly. “No.”

“Nella.”

Alfred looked anxious, desperate to prove his feelings to her right now.

But Nella only looked at him calmly, raised her hand to stop him, and continued, “Alfred, back then, when you handed me that contract and told me it was just a marriage of convenience, I agreed to that ridiculous proposal because I loved you.

“And in the name of loving you, I willingly stepped into that gamble. In the end, I lost, and I accept that loss willingly. I don’t blame you, and I don’t hate you. But at the same time, I don’t love you anymore. Really.”

She watched as Alfred’s eyes grew redder and redder.

She touched her chest. She felt a little sorry, but she didn’t feel any heartache.

But Alfred grew increasingly panicked, his fear almost overflowing.

Clumsily, he grabbed Nella’s hand, his lips trembling hard.

“No, you didn’t lose. I like you. I just realized it too late.”

“Nella, I like you.”

With red eyes, he emphasized it to her.

Finished

“I know I was terribly wrong before. I deliberately embarrassed and disappointed you. I thought I didn’t like

you.

“But now I realize I was wrong. I do like you.”

“Oh? When did you realize that?”

Nella asked with a smile, her tone languid and casual, clearly not fully believing his words.

“I … I don’t know. I only know that by the time I slowly realized it, you already didn’t want me anymore.”

As he said this, Alfred looked at Nella with reddened eyes.

“During those two weeks when you didn’t look for me, I kept feeling empty inside, like something was missing. But back then, I was too stupid to understand that emptiness was loss. I was so stupid that I kept sulking with you just because you didn’t come to me. I never thought…”

At this point, deep regret and self-blame surged into Alfred’s eyes.

“I never thought that during those two weeks, you were hovering between life and death. I…”

Alfred couldn’t continue. With red eyes, he only held Nella’s hand tightly. “I’m sorry, Nella. I’m truly sorry…”

Nella looked at him calmly. Then she sighed, pulled her hand free from his grasp, and said, “No, Alfred. This time, you’re the mistaken one.”

He looked confused.
