Chapter 951

"Anton, life is short, don’t always dwell on the past, okay?"

Anton smiled faintly, "That’s because you forgot. If you remembered, perhaps you wouldn’t say such things."

"But I can’t remember, I just know that the person I love now is Reynaldo."

His eyes slightly...

Anton suddenly couldn’t speak. He looked deeply at me, his eyes red.

The wind blew, lifting the hem of his clothes, bringing a few traces of loneliness and sadness.

I didn’t say anything more; I turned around and left.

But the next second, Anton suddenly hugged me from behind.

I was startled and struggled.

Anton’s deep voice sounded in my ear, "If you ever remember, be sure to tell me."

He let go of me after saying this.

I turned around and glared at him angrily, but he suddenly glanced meaningfully at a spot not far away.

I followed his gaze, and my heart skipped a beat.

Just a few meters away on the side of the road, there was a black commercial van parked.

And that car, I recognized, was Reynaldo’s.

My heart tightened, and I quickly took a step forward to go over, but unexpectedly the car started instantly and, in the blink of an eye, merged into the main lane.

I stared blankly at the disappearing taillights, my heart tightening.

Reynaldo must have been waiting for me near the school.

Even though I didn’t make it in time, even though I didn’t answer his call.

But he still believed that I would come and waited for me nearby.

However, just now I was entangled with Anton, the scene where Anton hugged me; he must have seen it, and he must have misunderstood.

What to do?

He was difficult to coax in the first place, and this time he definitely couldn’t be coaxed.

"Esmeralda…" Anton walked over.

I turned cold-faced and gave him a slap.

His face was hit to one side, but he didn’t look angry.

I asked him, "Did you see his car a long time ago? Did you hug me on purpose to make him misunderstand?"

Anton raised his hand and wiped away the tiny specks of blood at the corner of his lips.

He looked at me, his smile breaking, "Yes, I did it on purpose."

"You…"

"I know I should have given up long ago; I should have let go, but I couldn’t."

Back in Glauvale, without Reynaldo, even if you still didn’t have me in your heart and mind, there were only two children, I still felt happy at that time.

At least back then we could be friends, could meet often, and the two children were close to me too.

But when you returned to Freybourne, all you could think about was Reynaldo.

"I can’t take it. Esmeralda, I really can’t take it."

I took two steps back, looking at him in shock.

I thought he had let go, but it turns out he is as persistent as Reynaldo.

When Anton said those words, his chest heaved violently.

After a while, his emotions calmed down.

He said to me, "I’m sorry, Esmeralda, I scared you."

I shook my head and said calmly, "You see, Reynaldo and I are husband and wife, and those two children are also Reynaldo’s. We… are a family of four."

"I know."

Anton murmured, then suddenly laughed, "It’s okay, Esmeralda, I was just venting my emotions."

He paused and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t force it."

He turned around and left after he finished speaking; the back view was filled with indescribable loneliness and sadness.
