Chapter 249

Filip's gaze lowered. "I didn't tell you the truth. I didn't have the abortion, but I have my reasons.

Cynthia's expression was calm. "You don't need to explain anything about the child to me. In the end, the child is innocent. I don't want to do wrong. I just hope that after the baby is born, you both will be responsible parents" Filip's eyes showed a hint of surprise. "So, you're saying you've forgiven me about the baby?"

Cynthia found it humorous. "Filip, given our current relationship, is forgiveness even relevant?" "Cynthia, are we not even friends anymore?

Cynthia looked at him with sarcasm. "Of course not. If 1 were to be friends with someone who lies all the time and has betrayed me repeatedly, then all the tears I've cried and the pain I've suffered would be deserved." The light in Filip's eyes slowly faded away.

"It's fine if you can't forgive me, Cynthia. I just want you to understand that I only married Lilian because she forced me. I don't love her at all. My heart belongs only to you"

Cynthia looked at him with an amused expression. "Filip, have you lost your mind? Who told me you only loved Lilian? If you had kept your word, at least I would have respected you as a true romantic

"But now, with her being seven months pregnant, you're coming to me with this nonsense. Calling you shameless doesn't even begin to describe you."

Filip felt completely humiliated by Cynthia's words, especially the disdain and contempt in her eyes, which cut him deeply However, unlike before, he didn't lose his temper.

He seemed to wilt like a plant struck by the frost. "I know you look down on me; you did before, and now it's even looked up at Cynthia, bewildered. "But Cynthia, every single word I said today is from my heart" Filip said, "All these years, I've always felt inferior around you. You're always so exceptional, like a beacon that draws everyone's attention.

worse. He

"You might not believe it, but from childhood until now, I've lived in your shadow. Next to you, I always feel inadequate, shrinking into the ground.

"Even after college, when we fell in love, I was still scared of you felt like I couldn't handle or match you. I was always worried you'd meet someone better and leave me.

"Back then, Lilian used a diary to cause trouble between us, and I didn't even dare to confront you about it," he said.

Filip's eyes were full of regret. "This is the biggest regret of my life"

Cynthia listened without reacting. "Why are you telling me this now?"

Filip grabbed Cynthia's hand. "So, I want to be brave for once. I want to follow my heart and tell you everything I've been keeping inside, Cynthia

"We've been together since we were born, twenty years of emotions. How many twenty years does one get in a lifetime?

"I don't believe that you have no feelings for me at all. Please, just give me a year, no, three months, three months is enough. I will divorce Lilian and completely cut ties with her." Filip dropped to his knees, pressing his forehead against the hand he was holding. "Please don't be mad at me anymore.

Cynthia. Come back to me.

"I love you. I've realized just how much I love you. Day and night, you're all I think about," he continued.

93%1

Filip was almost in tears. "I really wish we could go back to the past. If I could, I'd definitely give my past self a good beating. Cynthia, please come back to me, please, please?" Cynthia, however, remained unchanged. She looked down at Filip, then pulled back her hand and took two steps back.

"Filip, everything that needed to be said is already clear. Don't stay here and act just to feel moved by yourself.

"Late affections are cheaper than grass. If you truly regret it, keep your wife in check in the future, and don't let either of you bother me again"

After Cynthia finished speaking, she opened the door, intending to leave the private room. As soon as she opened it, she saw Jonathan

Jonathan saw Cynthia and quickly walked over to her. At the same time, Filip chased after them from inside.

"Cynthia, don't go... Before he could finish, Filip noticed Jonathan's stern expression.

Jonathan glanced at Filip's face and asked, "What are you doing?"

Filip stayed silent, curious to see how Cynthia would respond to the question. Deep down, he hoped Cynthia wouldn't explain anything. If Jonathan misunderstood, maybe he'd feel a little better. Cynthia shrugged casually, "He just made a heartfelt confession inside."

Filip was speechless.

When Jonathan heard this, his gaze turned icy as he looked at Filip. Tears still marked Filip's face, and the chill in Jonathan's eyes made him shiver.

"It seems Filip doesn't have enough to do. From now on, make sure your reports are 5,000 words each, not a word less, he said.

With that, he walked over to Cynthia and wrapped an arm around her waist. His voice softened instantly. "Sweetheart, let's go home

Jonathan said 'sweetheart so naturally and affectionately it was hard to believe it came from someone so reserved and

distant

Cynthia felt her heart flutter at his words as if a feather had brushed gently across her heart.

She raised her hand and naturally scratched Jonathan's chin, saying, "Let's go, honey."

It was the first time Cynthia called him "honey." Jonathan's body noticeably stiffened for a moment. Then, as he looked into Cynthia's eyes, a deep joy began to spread, almost as if it would overflow. The two of them left hand in hand. Filip watched their backs in daze for a long time.

They seemed so well matched, like a match made in heaven. The happier they looked, the more Filip's heart ached.

For such a long time, he had been convincing himself. Since Cynthia was happy now, he should not disturb her.

But he wasn't a saint. After holding back for so long, his rationality crumbled the moment he saw her.

He poured out everything he had buried in his heart, but all he received in return was her disdain and indifference. She was no longer the Cynthia he once knew.

In the end, he lost her. Filip lowered his gaze, feeling as if his heart was being cut by blades.

But soon, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes. He thought, still had an ace up my sleeve, didn't I? One that could make Cynthia willingly return to me.'
