Chapter 21
“Do you need any help?”
As Krista turned around, she saw Frankie leaning against the doorway, looking at her with concern in his eyes.
She pretended not to hear and didn’t respond to this sentence.
Frankie also didn’t feel embarrassed and continued to speak on his own.
“The last time it rained this heavily was probably a year ago. We were all at home that day, and you said you wanted to personally cook acake…
His voice mixed with the sound of drizzling rain incessantly, narrating some old stories buried in time.
Nowhere t to go, Krista could only be forced to listen to him reminisce about the past.
As she listened, some images would come to her mind, and her originally calm mood also began to fluctuate.
From rainy days to the first date, from marriage to college, Frankie seems to be immersed in it, with a stronger sense of nostalgia in his
tone.
The memories that came out of his mouth were all beautiful and interesting, but to Krista, they only brought a sense of desolation, as if the tea had gone cold after the people had left.
She couldn’t help but interrupt him finally
“Since you have so much free time, why don’t you drive your car to earn some extra money?”
With the aim achieved, Frankie quickly invited the person into the car.
To avoid being disturbed again, as soon as Krista pot in the car, she closed her eyes and dozed off to rest.
Frankie did not speak anymore.
As long as he saw her sitting beside him, his heart gradually calmed down.
After arriving at the destination, Krista took out one hundred dollars from her wallet and handed it over.
“Hard work, no need to look for it.”
Frankie did not make any excuses either, and he accepted it with a smile.
“I would be happy to assist you. You can contact me if you have any travel needs in the future.”
Krista
a was too lazy to argue with him any further, so she opened the car door and was about to leave, but he stopped her.
“Rosa wanted your contact information, is it possible?”
Hearing this name, Krista’s heart skipped a beat, recalling the incident when she had secretly added her
But soon she realized that the account had already been deactivated, and she felt relieved and nodded gently.
After receiving the verification message, Krista quickly passed.
She watched as the screen kept displaying “the other party is typing” and her heart started pounding.
Why did Rosa suddenly want to contact her? Does she know something?
She was guessing when a message came through.
“Krista, do you have time tomorrow? I would like to meet you and talk”
After typing for so long, with just one sentence, Krista didn’t know how to respond.
Facing Rosa, she always had mixed emotions.
Before the divorce, they could be considered love rivals, but she also understood that they were not in opposition to each other, and the root of the problem lay with Frankie.
of powerlessness toward Rosa. She didn’t want to get too
Back then, she had a mixture of admiration, a hint of jealousy, and a sense of close to her, nor did she want to have any conflicts with her.
After the divorce, they were just acquaintances who had met a few times. In theory, she should have politely declined, considering that the only connection between them had been severed.
But for some reason, Krista inexplicably wanted to go on the date, wanting to hear what she really wanted to talk about.
