Luna took a deep breath. She downed the tea on the table in one go.
“You’re a gentle and kind-hearted man. You deserve a much better woman and deserve to find better happiness. Not with a woman who had just climbed out from the depths of hell.“
Then, she placed the empty teacup on the table and looked at Theo meaningfully. “The reason why I asked you out tonight…
“Is to thank you for helping me. Now that the storm has passed, no one is caring about your private life anymore. No one cares about me anymore either. We it’s time to announce to the public about our breakup.“
Theo lowered his head. “I thought that you asked me out…“
He did not finish his sentence.
“But, I can understand.“ Theo took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at Luna. “You have been hurt so badly. It’s normal that you won’t accept another man. Don’t worry, I will stay by your side and wait for you to slowly regain trust in love.“
Then, he shredded the tickets stylishly and threw them into the bin.
“You have your things to attend to. Go and do them tomorrow. I’ll come with you.“
Luna rubbed the middle of her brows.
“Theo, don’t be stubborn. It won’t come to fruition.“
“Whether to continue or not is my decision to make, not yours.“ Theo smiled at her and directly picked up the menu. “Let’s order.“
Luna furrowed her brows. Throughout that night, she tried to find a chance to get Theo to give up on her, but Theo would not budge. He would even openly change the topic.
Luna was helpless. In the end, she could only let him be,
After all, she has already said what she needed to say repeatedly.
The next day at four in the morning, when Luna was still asleep, she received Luke’s call.
