Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1214

"I was late for less than five minutes when I ran all the way here, and I did not receive any inquiries from her on my cell phone. I ran over from the other side of the road, and I did not see her before I crossed the road. If I minus two minutes, I was, at most, only late for less than two minutes!" He questioned himself in bewilderment.

She didn't answer the call, nor did she reply to his texts. All she did was respond with such a short sentence after a long period?

That woman!

Feeling his blood boiling, Willy was seething that his face turned purple from fury. He did not notice that her reply was "Our date", not "Today's date". Although there was only one word different, it had totally different meanings to them.

It was almost nine o'clock. Without realizing it, he had waited for more than fifty minutes. His seven orifices seeped with smoke. His fingers flew past the keyboard before he dialed her number once more.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed has been turned off..."

After several tries, her phone was turned off.

Gritting his teeth, Willy could barely hold himself back from losing his temper. "Turned off? Turned off!"

That d*mn woman. What an odd temper she had!

Why wouldn't she inform him before leaving?

Well! That said, it was his fault since he was late! Before she left, however, why didn't she ask him where he was? Couldn't he be stuck in the traffic or delayed from an accident for merely two minutes? So be it if she wanted to leave, but she should, at least, give him a heads-up. Why would she want him to waste his time waiting?

That instant, he wanted nothing more than to give her a good beating. After closing his eyes and taking a few deep breaths, only then did Willy manage to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

If it were to be Laurie, she would have obediently waited for him...

All of a sudden, Willy's heart seemed to have been hollowed out. In an instant, all his emotions were replaced by a deep sense of loneliness and regret. His mind lingered with the scene where she waited for him in the lobby of the company and under the bridge. Feeling dispirited, his shoulders drooped.

"Waiting turns out to feel so awful..."

He had waited for less than an hour. Each time, she would wait for such a long period, but as he recalled, she had never complained! Laurie only knew to quietly contribute and would never take the petty issues to heart. It was him. He was the one who had not cherished her. It was him who had lost her!

Turning around, Willy's emotions were stained with sorrow.

By the time he came to his senses, it was raining. Shivering, he rushed to the nearby parking lot.

As soon as he closed the door, the rain began to splatter against the glass. Feeling the need to explain to her, he picked up the phone and dialed the same number.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed has been turned off..."

All at once, his wrath surged again. Willy rolled his eyes in speechlessness. If he had not received her reply, he would have suspected that an incident might have happened to her!

Did she turn off her phone on purpose?

Willy had initially wanted to enjoy a good meal with her before he went on business trips. Never in his wildest dreams would he have expected things to end up in such a manner. Willy could not hold back his fury.

Outside the window, the rain grew increasingly heavy as minutes passed. He withdrew a cigarette and lit it up.

The moment he started the car engine, he turned around.
