Second Time

JANE-STORY PAST (1)

Ken and I enjoyed eating at a food stall near the hospital, which looked simple but pleasant. I didn't expect that a Ken-class man could be brought to eat in this simple place. I don't think he'll taste if he's eaten here, it turns out to be very inverse. Ken was so good at eating his food, I didn't realize why I enjoyed looking at him right now.

I have never had a problem with simplicity even though I was treated like a princess by my parents all this time. I used to eat in simple places as long as the food provided was healthy and appropriate on my tongue. That's why I'm so compatible with Grace, she has almost the same nature as me. Who would have thought that he was the only child of the president of Eiregin Corp? He's even used to eating snacks on the side of the road, he sometimes does look silly like me.

Ken and I spent all our food unceasingly. Ken stroked his overstuffed stomach while laughing, it turned out that he could also act silly like that in front of me. I just laughed at his attitude, believe me this attitude is very different 360 degrees with the first character I caught when I first met him. In fact, he always looks cold and firm with office employees. I don't know why he showed his true nature to me.

After paying we finally parted ways and went home to each other's place. I drove my car to the apartment, wanted to get there and see Grace for a while. I want to see how things are going, I hope that kid is healthy now. No matter what I do, it's not fun without him.

I was lightning fast toward Grace's apartment, I screamed her name and banged on her apartment door. I was afraid she was wondering why for a long time did not open the door. The door opened and I went straight inside. I asked her about her health, but she was fine even though I saw her sweating like a nervous person, possibly the effect of her recovery.

I left Grace's apartment after being convinced that she was okay. I opened the door to my apartment and immediately entered the room. I immediately took a shower, flushing my body with warm water made the fatigue slowly evaporate. I got out of the bathroom and immediately put on my sleeping pajamas, I jumped on the bed. I move my hands and feet like I'm swimming in bed, oh bed I miss you so much.

I remember Ken's story when I was drunk, about how I cursed him and thought of him as Liam. My mind suddenly flew past, to the time when I was still with Liam.

That man was someone who first filled my heart, he came with love for me. For years we were together, we were in a relationship with love that was getting bigger and bigger. I was so happy back then, having a lover who made me the queen of her life. But happiness is not always on our side forever.

I had to accept the bitter reality of my life when Liam suddenly announced his engagement to Margaret, the innocent daughter of his parents' best friend. I found out from Grace, she told me everything about how the engagement went. Grace knew it because her father was one of the important people invited to the show.

I felt like I was struck by lightning in broad daylight, there was no wind, no rain, but a storm came crashing down on me. My body was slumped, how could Liam be engaged to the girl without telling me at all, without even giving clarity to our relationship. For a moment I could hardly believe what was happening, but it was real, not a dream at all.

After some time I calmed down I finally went to see Liam. Want to clean up all the things that were at that time confusing in our relationship. I have to finish everything completely, however I am one of the parties who did not benefit at all in this situation.

"Jane." Liam clasped my hand on the table.

"Yes?" I try to speak as calmly as possible.

"Listen to me."

"Please." I let him explain everything.

"I was betrothed to him, I can't refuse him."

"Continue?" I was trying to control my heart that suddenly hurt.

"I don't love him, I have to."

"Why?" I forced my eyes on his face even though all I saw was wounds.

"My father will give all the assets to my sister if I refuse this match?" Liam looked me in the eye with a glare, I saw there was still love in his eyes.

"So is it only because of treasure?"

"No, it's for our future, Jane." Cih I really want to puke hearing that, there will be no future for us anymore after this Liam.

"I want us to stay together, I don't want to lose you."

"Are you going to sacrifice a lot of people for your ambitions for treasure?" I still speak calmly.

"Then what?" I braced myself to keep looking calm.

"It's really hard to explain this time to you."

"Just explain everything, I don't think anything's hard."

"Jane, I accepted the match and I'm going to marry her. After I get all the assets of my parents' company, I'll divorce her immediately. We'll get married after that, Jane."

"Do you think it's that easy, Liam? Toying with a woman's heart just for an asset you can even find yourself without depending on your parents?" I was still talking with a flat tone, hiding all the emotions that had almost exploded.

"I beg Jane, stay with me. It's just a minute, this marriage is just a status." Liam clasped my hand with both hands.

"I'll just give you two choices, Liam."

"What's that?"

"Me or the wedding? If you choose me and refuse that marriage, we'll stick together. But if you choose that wedding, I'll make sure we never see each other again." With all the strength of my heart I speak those words.

"Jane, I can't refuse that marriage. I'm gonna lose everything, it's gonna have an impact on our future."

"Liam, you can start over, I'll be happy to help you, I'll be right next to you if you try a little."

"My current achievement is almost at the top, Jane. I don't want it all to go down the drain just because I'm rejecting this matchmaking."

"Well, if that's your will I won't force it." I pulled my hand from his grasp.

"Do you agree, Jane? We'll be together until that time comes." Liam thought I approved of that crazy idea.

"Never dream, Liam." I put my smile on him.

"Jane, to.why?"

"Do you think I'm the woman who's crazy about the treasure you have? Do you think I'll wait until you get all your parents' estate? I told you never to dream, Liam!" I emphasized every word.

"Jane, please."

"Just when our relationship is over, do as you please what you want to do."

"Jane, I really don't want to lose you."

"Never say that word again in front of me, for you have lost me by now."
