Chapter 2380: Chapter 2380
Being loved and cherished by such a heaven’s prince was surely a happy life, wasn’t it?
And before, she clearly had his sole affection.
If only she had chosen him at that time and married him, even if he later learned the truth, he wouldn’t have pursued it any further, right?
She could still be the only one in his heart.
She realized it too late.
By the time she realized how good he was and wanted to be with him, it was already too late.
He discovered that she was not his lifesaver.
And all her past special privileges with him were forfeited.
That was when Rebecca Kelloway found out that Frank Parker was not a man of good temper, nor one who would be lenient and kind to others.
Having lost her special status with him, his indifference and ruthlessness hurt her deeply and caused her unbearable pain.
The man she once never cared for had now become the man she longed for but could not have.
This contrast made Rebecca resent him, yet also uncontrollably attracted to him.
After she was no longer someone Frank Parker cared about, she began to truly understand him.
She discovered that Frank Parker was truly charming.
As she looked at his handsome face, her heartbeat couldn’t help but speed up.
"Frank, I saw you just now and thought you looked familiar, so I came to say hello," Rebecca faced his cold and distant gaze, feeling distressed, but pretended nothing was wrong, "What are you doing here? Did you make plans with friends?"
She was still wearing the black long dress from the party.
Actually, she should have changed before coming here.
But suddenly she wanted to come here for a drink, and didn’t bother changing clothes anymore.
Frank Parker still didn’t say anything, simply scanning her coldly.
"I came straight here after a party," Rebecca explained without waiting for him to ask as his gaze fell on her, "I suddenly felt like having a few drinks, so I came. I didn’t expect to run into you here."
"If you haven’t made plans with your friends, maybe we could..."
"Sorry, I have someone waiting for me," Frank Parker finally spoke, rejecting her suggestion, "They’re waiting for me, Ms. Kelloway, please excuse me."
Having said that, Frank Parker turned and left.
"Frank," Rebecca lifted her dress to catch up to him, hurt by his cold attitude, her face pale, "Do you really want to treat me like a stranger? All because I... made one mistake, are you going to treat me coldly for the rest of my life?"
"I know I was wrong, and I’ve apologized. Why can’t you forgive me, considering our many years of friendship?"
"Ms. Kelloway, I’ve made myself very clear," Frank Parker didn’t even slow down as he walked, even speeding up, as if he didn’t notice Rebecca struggling to keep up, "I said, the next time we meet, let’s just pretend to be strangers."
"If making a mistake could be fixed with just an apology and a show of remorse, everyone in this world would be a divine lady or father. If you want to be a divine lady or father, that’s your business; I’m not interested."
Forgive Rebecca Kelloway?
He probably would never be able to do it in his lifetime.
It was because of her that he missed the person who should have accompanied him for the rest of his life.
And that missed opportunity would be a lifelong regret.
