Chapter 10
already had someone I liked, Bradyn is my boyfriend, please don’t bother me anymore in the
future!”
“Emilia, you…”
He looked extremely frustrated, with a face full of pain.
“Didn’t you used to say that you loved me the most before? You can’t treat me like this.”
“I used to say that before, but now I have separated from you, and I have the right to choose a new
partner.”
I said to him calmly.
“Bradyn was better than you, he understood how to take care of people better than you, and most
importantly, he wouldn’t abandon me for another woman.”
“I’m sorry, I won’t do it again in the future. Please give me another chance, I beg you.”
Oliver knelt in front of me.
I was quite surprised because, in my impression, he was a man with great pride and never bowed
down to anyone.
So, back then, he wanted to go to the south and didn’t stay in Eritown for me.
“Oliver, even if you died in front of me, we could never be together.”
After saying that, I walked over to Bradyn.
Oliver knelt there, his eyes red, staring at me for a long time, and then he left.
“I could hear it just now.”
“What?”
I looked at Bradyn, not understanding his meaning.
He curved his lips into a smile.
“You said I was your boyfriend.”
“So from now on, we were a couple.”
He put his arm around my shoulder.
My face turned red instantly, and I quickly pushed him away.
“I… I was just joking.”

“I’m not joking, Emilia. I really liked you. It was the first time I met a girl who liked painting as much as I do, and we clicked so well.”
His eyes were full of seriousness.
My heart was in a tangle like a ball of yarn.
Because I was not ready to embrace a second relationship yet.
“I… I had something to do, so I went home first.”
After going back, I never contacted Bradyn.
I didn’t know how to face his confession.
So in the following days, I never went out to paint but instead stayed at home binge–watching
dramas.
Oliver hasn’t appeared for a while.
When it reappeared, I had just come out of the supermarket after finishing my shopping.
He stood not far away when suddenly a man with a knife rushed towards me.
Oliver hurriedly rushed over and blocked the knife for me.
With a “puff” sound, it was the sound of a knife piercing flesh.
The whole world seemed to have quieted down.
“Oliver…”
I was completely panicked.
His face turned pale as he struggled to speak, “You… You’re okay, that’s all that matters.”
I urgently called an ambulance and then took him to the hospital.
Watching him being rescued, I became even more disturbed.
Did he really love me so much that he didn’t hesitate to block the knife for me?
But if he really loved me, why was he still ambiguous with his ex?
I sat in the corridor, my mind muddled like oatmeal.
Fortunately, Oliver’s injury was not serious. He just needed a few stitches and was then taken to the
Ward.
The first thing he did after waking up was to ask me if I was okay.

I answered him, “I’m fine, do you have any problems?”
He shook his head and said, “I’m fine. Fortunately, it wasn’t you who got hurt. I hope you’re doing
well.”
“Oliver, to be honest, even if you helped me, I wouldn’t get back together with you.”
Once I have made a decision, I will not change it anymore.
He gave a bitter smile and said, “I know, you won’t forgive me.”
“Was that man good to you?”
“Very well.”
“Well, Emilia, if you are unwilling to reconcile with me, can you give me one more chance? I will show you my performance, and then you can decide whether or not to reconcile with me, okay?”
I hesitated for a long time, but when I saw his pitiful appearance, I still agreed.
Then I went to buy oatmeal for him, but when I came back, I unexpectedly overheard him talking on the phone with someone else.
E
I have already given you the money, remember not to let it slip out, only you and I know about this
matter.
On the other end of the phone, they said, “Alright, Oliver, don’t worry. I hope you bring the beauty home soon. You got hurt for her this time, and she will definitely feel sorry for you.”
I was completely stunned.
Originally, this was a play directed and performed by Oliver.
