After the Eight Years of Love I Gave Up
Chapter 71

Chapter 20

The cheerful music had stopped at some point.

Cassius's voice had also stopped.

First, there was a moment of emptiness in my ears.

Then came the faint sound of something breaking.

And after that sound, there was an overwhelming sense of relief and liberation.

You see, I don't even have that last bit of sadness anymore.

It's just a pity, why do people always have to have some regrets in life?

Before today, I didn't regret loving Cassius.

Good or bad, it was all part of my experience.

But at this moment, I can't help but deeply regret.

Why didn't I realize in those seven years that Cassius had never truly valued me?

Darius pulled me into his arms, his eyes full of concern.

I was a bit pale, but still smiled and shook my head at him: "I'm fine, Darius."

"Darling, go wait in the car first. Leave this to me."

"I want to stay with you." I gripped his hand, unwilling to let go.

Darius looked at me intently for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and kissed me hard.

"Everly, I've always lived and acted without regrets, never looking back."

"But at this moment, I truly regret not snatching you away from him back then."

"What right do you have to snatch her? Taking advantage of someone's vulnerability, what kind of man are you?"

"Cassius, you never deserved Everly's affection and love for these seven years."

Perhaps it was this statement that finally enraged Cassius.

He had never lost control like this before, and now he spoke without thinking:

"What about you, Darius? You're going after a woman who's been with me for seven years. What face do you have to stand in front of me and spout such nonsense?"

"What do you even like about her? Do you purely like Everly, or do you like the fact that she was Cassius's woman?"
