"What made you think that?” Gordan asked bluntly.
He cared about Vivian?
Unless Vivian turned into an absolute beauty one day, he would never care about her.
She was just an ugly woman. He was waiting for her at the neighborhood gate only because of the years they had known each other, nothing more.
“Really? Are you sure?” Gale raised an eyebrow, not easily fooled by his words. “I'm telling you, women are soft-hearted. If she finds out you're injured, she'll feel sorry for you. By then, won't it be easy for you guys to get back together or whatever it is that you want?"
“Who told you I want to get back together with her?” Gordan frowned, almost wanting to throw the lemon in his hand.
“Tsk, it seems that pretending not to care isn't just a woman's trait. Men are the same."
“Gale…” warned Gordan.
Gale shook his head and asked, “Are you going to deny that the woman you mentioned while drinking alone that day wasn't Vivian?”
Gordan was stunned for a moment as he recalled what happened that day.
He was drunk but still rational. He should not have mentioned Vivian.
“You're thinking about it, which means I'm right,” added Gale with a knowing expression on his face.
“Even though you didn't say it that day, you were acting like someone who got dumped. Gordan, you might fool others, but you can't fool me or Rain,” said Gale. He remembered what Rain had said after their barbecue that day.
Gordan probably cared about Vivian. His behavior was too unusual.
He could have any woman he wanted, but ever since divorcing Vivian, he had not had a single woman around him. He had become uninterested in them.
For a man to change like this, it was either he had developed a fear of women or he still had feelings for one woman.
Take Luke, for example. He had Luca in his heart. Thus, no matter how much other women tried to flirt or dress seductively around him, they could not catch his interest at all.
Gale believed Rain was right. They both thought Gordan had not gotten over Vivian.
Gordan's constant denial was just him being oblivious or unwilling to face it.
Gale was thrilled because he had uncovered a secret Gordan refused to acknowledge. To him, Gordan's strong denial was just a sign of how hard he was avoiding the truth. It was astonishing to see such a capable man be so clueless about his feelings.
Gordan could not be bothered to respond and simply closed his eyes.
“Come on. Let's talk,” said Gale.
“I'm injured. I need to rest,” Gordan replied in a cold voice. His tone was indifferent, but only he knew how chaotic his thoughts were at that moment.
“So, you’re really not planning to tell Vivian?” Gale thought this was a perfect opportunity for them to patch things up.
Vivian loved Gordan so much even though he had hurt her deeply. She was not the type to stop loving someone just like that. If Gordan seized the opportunity, it might actually work.
In that case, was not getting back together just a matter of time?
Gordan would not need to drown his sorrows in alcohol anymore.
“No thanks,” Gordan replied firmly.
Gale rubbed his nose and glanced at the monitoring equipment beside them. He exclaimed, “Huh?”
Just as Gordan thought Gale was about to persuade him again, he heard him say, “Gordan, your heart rate is really high. What are you nervous about?”
