Saying that she handed a wedding invitation to Cynthia.
Although she had known that they would get married one day, her heart shook violently when she saw the wedding invitation card, as if her heart was pinched by someone, with clear and sharp pain.
She thought her heart had been numb, but in this case, she still felt heartache. She was uncomfortable, and… unwilling to hear the news.
She had loved the man for all her youth, but now he was going to marry another woman. How could she make peace with it?
No matter what she thought of it, her feelings don’t matter much to him. if he didn’t love her, when the two were married, there’s only endless torture and pain left in the relationship.
It’s time to let go, Cynthia.
She accepted the wedding invitation simply and looked at Olivia with surprisingly calm eyes, “got it.”
Olivia was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect this woman to be so calm. Whether she was calm or pretended to be calm, she didn’t know, but what was certain was that she won this battle completely.
Not only did she win Gray’s heart, but she also successfully took on the title of “Mrs. Smith”.
Thinking of this, Olivia raised her chin, looked at her with contempt, and sneered: “I only hope that you will be there on time. Don’t be a coward and dare not to turn up.”
After speaking, she left.
Cynthia felt that the wedding invitation in her hand was so hot that it almost burnt her hand.
Her eyes gradually turned red-
Tomorrow was the day when Gray and Olivia would get married.
This night, Gray went home.
Putting on his shoes at the entrance of the door, he pushed open the door.
Just like that night a few months ago, in the warm yellow light, Cynthia was sitting on the sofa waiting for him, but this time she was watching TV and didn’t stay at the dining table.
In the living room, the warm yellow light scattered loosely on her, covering her whole body with a light glow.
His eyes caught the scene, and it made him feel a little bit peaceful and relieved in his mind.
It was a feeling he had never had before.
At this time, Cynthia looked back and saw Gray. After a brief moment of astonishment, she stood up with a small smile on her lips, “I’ll go to the kitchen and cook for you.”
Gray looked slightly stunned, and hesitantly nodded his head.
Soon, a table of dishes was ready, and all the dishes were what Gray likes to eat such as beef stew and smoked salmon.
Seeing Gray eating in a leisurely manner, Cynthia always smiled calmly and lightly.
Picking up a piece of fish into his mouth, Gray chewed it slowly. For the first time, he realized that the food she cooked was so delicious.
After all, this was the first time he had eaten the food she cooked.
In the past, she went to the company every day to bring him meals, all of which ended up being thrown away by him.
At this moment, he felt a little pity.
During this time, she didn’t touch the chopsticks but quietly watched him eat. For some reason, she felt a little depressed.
He raised his eyes and met her clear and charming eyes.
Staring at the curve of her pink lips, he asked subconsciously, “why are you so happy tonight?”
“I’m happy that you finally find your happiness.” She was still smiling, with a shallow dimple beside the corners of her smiling mouth, and the light flashed in her smiling eyes.
She was laughing, but her heart was numb, and could not feel anything else…
These words made Gray shudder, and then an indescribable feeling spread through his heart.
At this point, his thoughts were like a tide, and old memories flooded in …
She still remembered that on the night of the wedding, he didn’t want to touch her and asked her to sleep in the living hall. She lowered her head, full of sadness and grievances, silently opened the door, walked out, closed the door, curled up outside the door, and slept all night. She just didn’t let other people know that he didn’t treat her well. Only by doing so, she would not be scolded by his parents.
After three months of their marriage, his mistress was pregnant, and this woman came to her house to make a fuss. Cynthia took it easy to solve every dispute and defended him from his parents’ blame; however, she was scolded by him for being a busybody.
After five months of marriage, he was drunk and wanted to have sex with her, but he scolded her for being not as good as a prostitute. She behaved like a corpse in the bed.
After a year of marriage, he brought his mistress into the house. She just cried, begging him to let her stay by his side, and gave her some decency.
After three years of marriage, she waited for him for more than a thousand days and nights, preparing every meal and waiting for him to come back, and he either stayed outside at night or came back to ask for sex…
All kinds of events of the past came to his mind. Gray felt that his heart was blocked and uncomfortable, his chest was stuffy, his throat seemed to be restrained, and he seemed to be out of breath.
Reaching out his hand to loosen his tie, he felt a little relieved.
After a meal, Cynthia cleared off the tableware and walked toward the kitchen.
Looking at her busily coming in and out of the kitchen, in a trance, he had a warm feeling in his heart that made him feel at home.
He stood in the living room and looked around the big room. He couldn’t imagine how she had survived so many years. He didn’t know how dearly she loved him so that she could endure loneliness and ridicule, and resist darkness and helplessness…
Gray felt some parts of his heart were sour and swollen-
This night, after taking a bath, Cynthia came out wrapped in a towel and lies on the bed.
Her long, half-dry hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her elegant little face was as pink as a blooming rose after water vapor in the bathroom covered her body.
She was lying on the bed. The black and smooth hair looked like a waterfall. In contrast to her black hair, her skin was as white as cream. The fair skin was like a fine suet jade, exuding a faint luster.
The warm yellow light fell on her, and her curved and pretty face glowed under the light, looking like she was living a cozy life.
Her curled and slim eyelashes trembled slightly, like butterfly’s wings. She was really beautiful. Those glass-like eyes seemed like two gurgling mountain springs, and no one could see the end.
He didn’t know if it was an illusion. At this moment, Gray felt that the woman in front of him was very attractive. Unlike Olivia’s sweet and graceful temperament, Cynthia was beautiful, elegant, and quiet, like the calm surface of the lake, but also like a fine painting of spring hills, and every frown and smile was alluring.
Immediately, there was a desire in his heart. A fire quickly arose from his lower abdomen and spread to his spine, and his eyes were gradually stamped with lust.
