Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 463

Chapter 463

Irvin knew he was to blame for what had happened between us. All of this was the fault of his own stupidity. Still, it hurt him. The pain was agonizing.

Forcing himself to elaborate, he said, “I know I’m being illogical, ini. But please, can you wait for me? Just give me a little more time before you move on?”

Irvin wanted me to wait until he had tied up all his loose ends and was gone. Then, I could love someone else. He didn’t want to be around to watch as I developed feelings for someone else.

He was worried the pain would crush him before the end came. He was afraid it would drive him insane.

I studied him incredulously. Frankly, I knew what he meant.

When we were completely ending things between us, Irvin had told me to move on. Despite his words, I knew he hadn’t said it because he had developed feelings for Grace.

On the contrary, it was because he had fallen for Grace’s trap and felt himself sullied. He had believed I would never want him again. That was why he had said those words.

Even so, I didn’t want to understand what he was trying to convey. And I had no intention of making any promises about waiting

In an indifferent tone, I said, “What’s the point of waiting? We’re over, Irvin. Things between us are done. You were the one who told me to move on and find someone else. Well, I have. And now, it’s your turn!”

During the most helpless time of my adolescence, Irvin had rescued me when I was on the brink of death. He hadn’t just given me a second chance at life, but he had also renewed my spirit.

Because of that, it didn’t matter what ended up happening between us. Whenever I recalled this moment, I would always want him to be well. I wished for him to live healthily and happily.

Grace had caught him in her scheme, and there was no going back now. Still, I wanted him to walk his chosen path with strength. I hoped he could fully let go of me, move on from what we once had, and begin a new life.

From now on, I hoped our separate paths would be lined with flowers, and our lives would be wonderful.

Irvin originally had a lot to say to me. He had even thought about how to convince me.

But after hearing my words, he suddenly didn’t know what to say. He also realized nothing he said now would change anything.

Irvin realized I was right–what was the point of waiting now? Nothing could ever happen between us anymore.

And what right did someone like him have to ask this of me? How could he have the gall to ask me to give him more time before moving on?

Tears suddenly welled in his eyes, and he couldn’t bring himself to look at me anymore. He stayed silent for a long time.

Just as I was about to walk away, Irvin suddenly spoke. “Emi, haven’t you always wanted to know why I could repeatedly claim to love you, yet still hurt you like that?”

I stopped in my tracks.

To be honest, I had completely let go of our relationship. Still, I did want to know this. I wanted to know how Irvin could show how much he loved me and acted like he couldn’t live without me, yet still hurt me so deeply.

True love wouldn’t allow you to hurt your loved one like he did me.

Take me for instance. No matter how much Irvin had hurt me or how much I had hated him, I had never once tried to hurt him. Even now, I still wished for him to live a happy life.

“It’s because I’m selfish,” Irvin said. “My love was far too self–centered. Back then, I had been so hurt by that misunderstanding that I wanted you to feel the same pain. I even wanted you to hurt so badly that you would wish you were dead.
