"Here you are! "Colin greeted her in a familiar way. Then he pulled out a chair for her and she sat down.
After Alline sat down, Colin poured her a cup of tea and said "Have a taste. The tea here tastes good! "
She took a sip and felt a little depressed. She didn't know what to say. Playing with the teacup in her hand, she asked "Colin, how did you know that Hiram wanted to divorce me? "
Colin paused in refilling her cup, and then smiled "Is there nothing else to talk about between us except this? "
Yes, they used to be in good relationship and said that they would accompany each other for a lifetime. She also firmly believed that she would marry Colin in this life. But in just a few years, why did so many changes happen? She took a breath and said "Colin, enough! "
"Are you still unwilling to give me a chance after you divorce? "Colin asked in a low voice. His eyebrows and eyes were full of earnest. He looked at her with sadness, as if something was about to flow out of his eyes, burning into the bottom of her heart.
She didn't dare to look into his eyes. The love in his eyes was so passionate and expectant. She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say. What could she say now? Alline clenched her fists silently and said "Colin, we're over! "
"I used to think that you would come back to me after he agreed to divorce. Now it seems that I am wrong. Maybe you have fallen in love with him now! "Colin stared at her with his dark eyes.
She calmed down and her body was a little stiff. She didn't know what to do. She said bitterly "No, how could I like him? "
The sentence sounded like a sigh, but also helplessness.
There was a moment of silence in the room. They sat opposite to each other, and suddenly didn't know what to say. At the moment, someone came in and asked if the dishes could be served. Colin nodded and motioned for the dishes to be served. Soon, a waiter came in and served the food. Colin began to change the topic. "I remember that you used to like spicy food, and today I ordered your favorite dishes. Have a taste. Do you like them? "
They ate silently. Neither of them mentioned the topic just now. But during the meal, Colin took good care of her, which made her embarrassed. They used to be like this, but now it was hard for her to accept.
The meal lasted for two hours. When they finished and left, Colin suddenly said "I'm sorry! "
At that time, they were standing outside the restaurant. Alline had heard of this restaurant from a colleague. It was very famous in the L city, but today there were few guests. Except them, there was almost no one in the parking lot!
Without thinking too much, Alline looked at Colin and said "Colin, I'm the one who should say sorry! "
"Alline..." Colin sighed, and a dull pain slowly swept across his eyes. He looked at her eyes with sadness, and his fists could not help trembling slightly. "If I do something wrong to you in the future, can you forgive me? "
Alline smiled. "What are you talking about? I've known you for a long time, and you've always been very good to me. I can't imagine what you'll do to me! "She made a joke, trying to ease the embarrassment tonight.
At that time, Alline didn't know the meaning of Colin's words. When she later knew it, she felt desperate!
Colin said in a low voice again, but because of the sudden ringing of Alline's mobile phone, the music drowned the sentence. She looked down and found that it was a call from Hiram. After thinking for a while, she finally pressed the answer key. "Where are you? "
Hiram's voice on the other end of the phone was cold and emotionless.
His voice was so hoarse that it was the tone that he had been used to when she first married into the Mo family. However, a few months later, she heard it again. She curled her lips unconsciously and said casually. "Outside! "
"Alline, where the hell are you? "Hiram asked again.
Noticing his impatience, Alline knew that he was probably angry, but she didn't mean to explain too much. More importantly, she was with Colin now. What he hated most was that she was involved with Colin. She avoided the key point and said lightly "I've said that I'm outside now. If you have anything to say, just say it! "
For the inexplicable anger of Hiram, Alline was somewhat unhappy, and could not bear to contradict him!
She didn't understand why Hiram still said so since he was going to divorce her!
