Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 994

His sadness and loneliness could be told from his straight back. Emelia and Maisie gave each other a look and knowingly shook their heads.

They both went through the ups and downs in a relationship and were conscious of the suffering nature of love.

Apparently, Phil was the one who got severe hurt.

According to Julian and Ezra, Phil barely walked out of his house during the festival. The good point was that he finally quit drinking excessively after he was sent to the hospital due to drinking problem.

Emelia worried about Phil's health and was also afraid that he was poor in cooking. Therefore, she asked Julian to invite Phil to have dinner at their house.

But Julian turned her down and said, "He is good at cooking.”

Emelia was surprised, "I didn't know that he can cook.”

Although she had known Phil for years, Phil scarcely could be counted as a close friend to her because of the distant relationship between her and Julian in the early years.

Julian elaborated, "When they first got married, Anya deliberately tortured him in various ways. Asking him to cook is one of them. In their house there was a servant in charge of cooking who was good at cooking. But Anya tormented him by asking him to cook for her. Otherwise she wouldn't eat anything.

Emelia asked, "So he learnt how to cook specifically for Anya and was responsible for all meals in a day?”

"What else choice did he get? He could hardly survive without Anya.” Julian recalled how insane he thought Phil was and how he rebuked him for acting so humble to please a girl.

But he fully understood Phil now.

He also learnt how to cook to take better care of Emelia and his kids.

Thinking of this, he comforted Maisie, "Don't worry about him. He wouldn't die before Anya does.”

As a person being highly possessive, Phil wouldn't be willing to die as long as he still had feelings towards Anya. As far as Phil knew, Anya belonged with him.

"I once called him and he sent me some pictures, all of which were about the food he made. He actually had some good days, albeit being lazy in going out.”

Once the news about Phil and Anya's divorce came out, numerous people ridiculed Anya by describing her as a money-grabbing young girl who seduced Phil by her attractive appearance. Phil dumping her was only a matter of time.

In usual case, Phil would stop the spreading of all negative news about Anya because he wanted to protect Anya.

But this time he turned a blind eye to it. It remained unknown if Anya, currently in another country, could see that news.

Phil refused to go out partly because he was tired and sick all of the paparazzi intrusion.

And what Julian didn't tell Emelia about the photos was that the food he cooked was Anya's favorite.

Wouldn't Phil be sadder when the food reminded him of Anya?

Julian didn't bother to persuade Phil to get over it. The more he thought about Anya, the harder he moved on. At such a young age, did he want to spend the rest of his life torturing himself?

In the hospital.

As a bossy and possessive person, Phil would usually keep her under constant surveillance even if he let her go in normal situation. But this time he didn't.
