Chapter 33: The break up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
I was at a loss for words. “I didn’t doubt you! I only wanted to find my mother with my own hands!”
Ken sighed, and he was a little disappointed by my tone. “Elena, what do you take me for? A lover who could be summoned at will, or an automated teller machine who would obey you?”
He held my shoulder with a sad look in his eyes. “I’m willing to respect you because I loved you. However, you shouldn’t insult me like this.”
I shook my head. “I was not, I was not insulting you…”
However, my defense was weak.
After Ken paid the bill and took a conference call, he left in a hurry and arranged for the housekeeper to drive me home.
I did not expect a romantic date to end in this way.
As I watched him leave, I realized that my actions were inappropriate.
Ken was extremely busy, but he always found time to accompany me and solve many of my problems.
His efforts for me unknowingly went beyond the scope of the contract.
He could have only maintained a contractual relationship with me, but he did his best to give me care and love. Our relationship had long been as sweet as love.
However, I took it all for granted. I was blinded by my desire to find my mother.
I realized that Ken was not only the perfect, gentle guy from the comic books for the first time.
He was the one who would be sad, had his dignity, and wanted me to love him back.
Although I felt terrible about it, it was not my style to return to Ken and beg for forgiveness.
Moreover, Grace did not have much time left. Therefore, if I did not solve the financial problem on time, she would have an excuse to break the contract!
I had already sacrificed so much to find my mother. Now, I definitely can not let all my efforts go to waste!
Anyway, Ken broke off the previous engagement so his goal has been achieved.
Perhaps, in order not to hurt Ken anymore, we should part ways and not drag him down.
I did not believe that I, a time traveler, could not rely on my ability to achieve my goals.
With mixed feelings, I texted Ken and asked that our previous contract be terminated, and that I would never bother him again nor bring him trouble.
The text message has been sent for a long time. I sat in the street, like a homeless orphan, and blankly looked at the streets of cars, and a happy couple. My heart wanted to cry.
Ken must have seen my text, but he did not reply. Could he have tacitly agreed to break up with me?
I looked up at the dark sky. There were no stars in the sky. It was as dark as my mood.
I wiped the tears from my eyes and forced a smile. I was going to find someone to invest in again.
I dressed up every day and went to a lot of cocktail parties. I advertised the Radiant Foundation as my joint project and interacted with a lot of big investors.
However, I was only new to the business. Cautious and cunning investors would not give me a large sum of money so easily, so I hit a wall everywhere.
At this time, I only knew that Ken’s help was selfless and powerful.
After all, we belonged in the same circle. I attended a number of parties so there would always be a chance to meet Ken.
Today, I talked to a wealthy boss, and he felt very enthusiastic.
However, I realized that he was interested in me after a while and not my project.
When his hand was about to touch my butt, I could not help but said, “Have some self-respect!”
I threw a glass of wine in his face and turned around in anger.
I did not expect to see Ken from afar.
