After the Eight Years of Love I Gave Up
Chapter 82

Love Story - Chapter 7

The next day, Nico told me he had to go on a three-day business trip. I watched him leave with a blank expression.

I actually knew where he was going, so when I saw him making a show of pulling a suitcase, I found it particularly ironic.

For the next two days, I shut myself in at home, not going anywhere.

Not eating or drinking, I completely lost the ability to function.

My emotions fluctuated wildly, sometimes cursing loudly, sometimes breaking down in tears.

At times I felt despondent, thinking my life was over, having wasted ten years on a scumbag.

Other times I felt lucky to have seen through a person before marriage, which was better than getting divorced later.

I was like a beast hiding in a dark cave, licking its wounds alone, forcing myself to accept reality.

Nico and I met in college.

Back then, many guys pursued me, and he was one of them.

But unlike those guys who sang love songs under my dorm window every day or waited for me with roses, he wasn't good with words and preferred to express himself through actions. He knew I loved to sleep in, so he quietly brought me breakfast for a year, rain or shine.

To have more chances to talk to me, he would go to the library early and occupy a seat near where I usually sat.

He would also go around asking about my preferences, eating only instant noodles for a month to save money, then queue up all night to buy me a concert ticket.

And so, under his subtle offensive, I fell for him.

I had been pampered since childhood and came from a well-off family.

At first, my parents strongly opposed our relationship, thinking I could find someone with better conditions and didn't need to suffer with him.

For his sake, I had a major falling out with my family at one point.

At that time, Nico had just started his business, and out of defiance against my parents, I voluntarily moved into the basement where he was living then.

In today's popular terms, I was "love-brained."

It was my mom who couldn't bear to watch anymore and secretly gave me money, wanting to buy a spacious house for me to live in.

I took matters into my own hands and gave all the money for buying the house to Nico for his startup.

That day, Nico cried and said to me

"Emily, don't worry, I will definitely work hard for our future, makeyour parents accept me soon, and then

marry you properly." Contene

I believe his promise to me was sincere at the time.

Just like it says in novels:

"Vows are not a measure of faithfulness, nor can they judge right or wrong. They can only prove that at the moment they were spoken, both parties were once sincere."

People change, just like I have now.

Back then, my devoted love for him was real.

And from the moment I found out he had cheated, it's also true that allm y love for the now dishonest Nico

has completely disappeared, even though it's only been a week
