Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 144

This question had been bothering him all the time, making him nervous and unable to sleep or eat.

That man was too excellent. He was afraid that she would fall in love with him.

"It has nothing to do with love. He doesn't love me and I don't love him either, but..." She lowered her eyes which showed a sad shadow on her white eyelids. Some marriage didn't require feelings but benefits and use. That was their marriage. He needed a wife and an heir. Yet none of these whom he loved could be given to him, so he could only find someone to replace his lover. And she was the best substitute in his eyes.

"Forget it, Hanson. Let's talk about the end of our class reunion." This topic was too heavy and dark, so she couldn't tell him the truth. It was better to change the subject. She tried to smile at him, but before she could even start, the smile was blown away by a sweeping cold wind. So she withdrew her hand from his palm and took a sip of the coffee to calm herself down.

He scratched his head, and his eyes and brows were covered with melancholy. After a long while, he opened his mouth slowly. "Will you attend the classmate reunion?"

"Of course, I haven't seen my roommates for a long time." She finally managed to squeeze out a smile. "All three of them stay in K city to develop their business. While I went to Yang City, I heard that they got together almost every week. I'm so envious."

"You must be regretful now, right?" He sounded bitter and sad. She came to Yang City for him, but he was unable to keep her.

Raising her head again, she took a glance at him and said, "I've never regretted it." She said firmly as if she was comforting him. At that time, her heart was lonely, no matter how prosperous and beautiful the city was without him.

There was a sparkle in his dark eyes.

She still cared about him. He was still important to her.

That was enough.

When Essie came back to the mansion, the hall was still full of people.

As soon as Daisy saw her, she ran over and pulled her to the side of Ivy. "Sister-in-law, I hope that she will be a warm-hearted spectator today. Did anything happen to her?"

"What's wrong?" Hearing that, Essie was dazed for a second. Then she turned her eyes to look at Ivy. She was taking the business card that Hanson gave to her and chuckling.

"She has been acting like this since she came back. She only looked at the business card and T-shirt and was smirking all the time. I want to know whose business card it is. She is as precious as a nurse. I don't even bother to look at her. Is she suffering from temporary insanity?" Daisy was worried.

Taking a deep breath, she thought, 'people who have a body of pursuing stars are really crazy. They can't stop taking medicine!'!

She half covered her mouth and whispered in Daisy's ear, "she saw Hanson today, got his signature and business card."

"No wonder." "I heard that a fan has shaken hands with Jim before. And she hasn't washed her hands for three months. I still feel unbelievable. I didn't expect that Ivy is such an anthomaniac," she continued.

"Cherish your life and stay away from the star chasing fan." Essie said and patted on her shoulder.

She gave a thumbs up sign of approval.

When she went back to the room after the shower, she saw Zac lying on the bed in the living room, reading a fashion weekly. Essie heard from Daisy that he is proficient in the eight language. If she traveled around the world with him, she didn't need a device. '.

Seeing her sitting next to him, he raised his eyes and glanced at her with deep set eyes. "Where did you go?" he asked. His tone was casual, as if he was just asking.

Hearing that, a faint smile played on Essie's face again. She guessed that he was asking the question on purpose, because Ivy must have told him that she went out with Hanson.

"We had a classmate reunion in the end of this month. I had a talk with Hanson about it." She said lightly, and her expression was calm.

A complicated light flashed through his black eyes. "Can you take your family with you?"

"So do you want to go there?" she asked.

"Is that okay?"

With an unfathomable smile at the corners of his mouth, he couldn't tell if he was joking or serious. She held his handsome face in her hands and said, "no, you can't go with me! Because you're too handsome, people will think that I'm there to show you off. My roommates are all single, and I'm afraid that they will be jealous of me and it's not good for me to be squeezed out from the crowd."

"It doesn't matter. I can disguise myself." He shrugged.

"That's even worse." Shaking her head vigorously, she continued, "I'm the president of the school's appearance Association. My husband is ugly. Do you want me to be the laughingstock?"

A touch of gloom flashed across his face. He lowered the corners of his mouth and turned his head to the magazine in his hand without saying anything.

Noticing his displeasure, Essie put his arm on his shoulder and smiled playfully. She tried to ease the atmosphere. "If you have time, you can go to K City with me. When I come back from the classmate meeting, we can go there and have a look. It's very fun."

A smile appeared at the corners of Zac's mouth. He had decided it that way. As for who she was with and what they had done today, he didn't want to ask any questions. He had the whole life to win her heart back sooner or later.

Noticing the subtle change of his facial expression, she was relieved. She didn't want to displease him, or she would be "punished" again.

Leaning against the head of the bed in a comfortable manner, she took up the IPad and pen and started drawing a new series of design sketches. She said, "frozen guy. I heard that you graduated from Harvard University and you majored in architecture and business. You are very excellent!"
