Chapter 241
Indya definitely had to go.
As the head of public relations, she needed to inspect the scene and prepare for all public relations matters.
But in front of Anthony, Indya didn’t want to say anything.
“We have to follow the company’s arrangements.”
Seeing Indya turn him down like this, Anthony felt a bit hurt.
“You don’t need to guard against me like this. We’ve been together for so many years. You should know I would never do anything to hurt you.”
“We’ve also been apart for many years. People never fully settle until the moment they die. You and I are the same.”
Anthony felt helpless. “Fine, I just want to see you.”
“Anthony, you started dating that woman not long after we broke up. Now you want to repeat the same old trick? She can’t be by your side, so you come back to me again?”
Anthony said anxiously, “No! I’m not dating her anymore!”
Back then, Anthony cheated on Indya because of loneliness.
Indya cared about work more than anything.
Anthony wanted to talk to her but had to set a time.
He couldn’t accept being last forever.
The appearance of that woman made Anthony feel the joy of companionship.
So…
Anthony hadn’t done anything outrageous, just emotionally strayed and thought the girl was nice.
When he realized he was drifting, he immediately told Indya.
He didn’t want to break up with her, only hoped she would pay more attention to him.
Then he would cut ties with the other person completely and return to Indya.
He loved Indya.
He had always loved her.

But who expected Indya would still break up with him.
“We were only together for less than a month. I realized I could never forget you. Indya, I have always loved you. I only resented you… Resented that you never cared about me. Your work, your employer, everything was more important than me. I was just sulking. I didn’t do anything. I was with her for months but never slept with her.”
“Is that something to be praised?” Indya retorted.
Anthony lowered his head and gave a bitter smile.
“Of course not. What I did was wrong. I just want to win you back. Indya, during all these years apart, you haven’t had anyone else by your side. That means you still have feelings for me, right? If so, why can’t we be together?”
Indya raised her hand and interrupted Anthony.
“Wait. You said it yourself–work is the most important thing to me. I didn’t avoid relationships because of you. It’s simply because making money is the most important.”
Jessica and Chris stayed at the company until everyone else had left, but Indya still didn’t show up.
Meanwhile, Shannon received a message from Indya saying she wouldn’t come to the office today because there was a power outage at home.
“Tell Indya to travel with me the day after tomorrow,” said Jessica as she picked up her clothes.
Shannon replied, “Okay.”
On the way back, Chris asked, “You really agreed to Blake just like that? Aren’t you afraid Blake is just playing around?”
Jessica said, “What kind of person do you think Blake is? If he were just playing, he wouldn’t have told me at all. He’d just try to get close to Indya by himself. Blake has been in the industry for so many years, and aside from being forced into relationships years ago, he has no dirt on him. I still trust Blake’s character.”
“Blake’s way of liking someone is a bit too straightforward, a little abrupt,” said Chris.
“Some people are just like that,” said Jessica, looking carefully at Chris. “They’ll know at a glance if they like a person or not.”
