After the Eight Years of Love I Gave Up novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3.

On the way, Lucas’s phone vibrated several times. They were all messages from Annie asking if he had gotten home safely

I unlocked the screen, originally intending to politely reply]

But then I saw his chat history with his friend.

[This fake wedding is my last chance. If she still doesn’t come back. I’ll really have to give up.]]

[Post the news about my wedding in the class group chat, but don’t say much to others.]

My finger fraze on the screen, and I abruptly closed the phone.

But I couldn’t help my breathing becoming rapid.[]

It felt like no matter how much I tried to open my mouth, oxygen couldn’t enter my lungs

Tears flowed more freely and violently along the corners of my eyes.]]

No wonder he suddenly proposed to me three days ago]

No ring, no marital home, no bride price

Just one sentence: Don’t tell our families.[

I thought he felt guilty for not giving me enough ceremony, thought my dedication had finally moved him.]]

But I never imagined that the wedding I had been looking forward to for eight years was just his bargaining chip to stimulate Annie to return to the country.

The last bit of attachment I had for this relationship in my heart was finally completely exhausted

1 could only keep comforting myself

Since I had already decided to leave, their affairs no longer had anything to do with me.

After we got home, Lucas had sobered up a bit. He went straight to the bathroom to wash up.

1 prepared honey water for him as Annie had instructed. ||

For these last three days, I didn’t want to leave any regrets for this relationship

1 had just sat down on the sofa when my boss called.[]

He talked about handing over my work before leaving []

As the call ended, Lucas’s irritated voice suddenly rang out:

“Leaving? Where are you going?

He was wiping his wet hair with one hand, his face expressionless as he questioned me

I handed him the honeywater and said calmly:

After finishing breakfast and preparing to leave, he looked at his phone.

Suddenly he said. “Let’s not take the wedding photos in the park. Let’s go to the school instead. I saw online that it’s trendy lately.”

My hand paused as I was clearing the dishes.]

“Mm, whatever you say. It’s up to you“]

1 knew why he suddenly changed his mind

Because Annie had posted on her Moments about visiting their school this morning. [

I didn’t expose his childish lie to his face. I just didn’t want to embarrass myself as the relationship was coming to an end.

With only a day and a half left before I left the country, I wanted to leave some dignity for both of us.]

Before leaving. I had already guessed what would happen today, so I deliberately chose a wedding dress that was easy to walk in

The photographer took us to the playground. Lucas looked around for a while, and finally saw a familiar figure in the corner under the trees.]

Without saying a word to me, he immediately turned and went to find Annie.[]

I smiled awkwardly at the confused photographer.

“Sorry for wasting your trip. Let’s end it here today. We’ll pay you in full.“||
