Chapter 185 Impossible, Austin!
Chapter 185 Impossible, Austin!
When Suny woke up again, it was already after 12 noon almost.
She lifted her hand to touch her forehead, the fever had gone down, the uncomfortable feeling in her
body seemed to have subsided and the swelling and pain inside her throat was much more
comfortable.
It seemed that a good night's sleep was quite useful after all.
She was in better spirits and in a better mood, the room was very quiet inside, the rain outside the
window had stopped and the sky was much brighter, Suny raised her eyebrows and after looking at it
for a while she withdrew her eyes and got out of bed.
Too thirsty.
When she saw Austin, the smile on Suny's face faded.
She had just woken up so much more comfortable that she had forgotten that Austin was still staying at
her house.
He didn't just stay at her house, but also he brought all the computer files with him and entered the
house in a dignified manner. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Suny lifted her leg and walked over, just as she was about to speak, he suddenly looked up at her,
"Wait a moment, I'm in a meeting."
"......"
In an instant, all of Suny's momentum turned into embarrassment.
She blushed, but she soon recovered.
Suny leaned down and picked up her own cup from the table, then walked calmly to the water fountain
to fill it, as if she was just going over to get it.
Austin looked at her, lowering his head and slightly hooking his lips for a moment, raising his head, his
face already back to its solemnity: "Continue."
Austin didn't have this video conference on for long, Suny was pouring a second glass of water when
he had already turned off his computer and walked over, "Better?"
Suny avoided his outstretched hand, "When do you plan to leave my house?"
Austin was silent for half a second, but the words he spoke were also off-topic: "There's chicken soup
in the kitchen, do you want some?"
Suny was exasperated, "Austin, do you know what you call this kind of behaviour?"
"What?"
"Shameless."
"Hmm."
He was now a brick wall, invulnerable to swords and spears.
Elijah was right, he could not chase her if he was ashamed.
If he could get Suny back, he could forget about it.
Suny's eyes were really opened by Austin's brazenness, and she looked up at him, "Are you going to
go back on your word?"
What was promised yesterday, and today it was a flip-flop?
Was this how Austin behaves?
"I don't count going back on my word."
He had lost yesterday, but Suny hadn't explicitly asked him not to pursue her again either.
She only said that she didn't owe him anything, but he didn't want to owe her anything and he didn't
want to have nothing to do with her.
He didn't want anything else, he just wanted her back.
The two confronted each other for two seconds before Austin spoke first to break the deadlock: "I'll
serve you a bowl of chicken soup."
"...... Austin, I want you to leave my house now, immediately, right now!"
He pursed his lips for a moment, "I'm sorry, I can't do that."
Oh, did she need to say it was okay then?
Austin went into the kitchen and brought out a bowl of warm chicken soup after he finished speaking.
As Suny watched him carry the chicken soup out, she even felt the urge to go over and lift her hand
and lift the bowl of chicken soup.
But she held back in the end, Austin was completely shameless.
"It's a bit hot, let it sit for a while before you drink it."
He put down the chicken soup and added thoughtfully.
Suny stood there, not moving: "Austin, what do you really want?"
She was truly afraid of him.
"Go after you."
He looked up at her, earnest and stubborn.
"Have you ever heard of it is hard to get the broken mirror back together?"
"But there is a chance."
"There will still be a rift when the mirror is broken."
Their former life was nothing more than a one-sided mirror of her own.
Austin lowered his eyebrows, Suny was right, but he was now out of his senses.
"If you hadn't mentioned Lexi last night, I wouldn't have stuck around today."
He said, taking a step towards her.
Suny was stunned for a moment, her face embarrassed.
She knew then that last night she had made a wrong statement.
Her charming eyes instantly went cold, she watched coldly as he walked up to her, watched as he
raised his hand, watched as his hand landed on her face, Suny didn't move, she just looked at him.
"I don't mean anything else by mentioning this, I just want to tell you that I was the one who didn't
cherish you in the past, and I know I'm not the only man who can afford to give you happiness. But
Suny, mutual love is not simple, my biggest mistake in the past was that I didn't cherish you after I
married you, but when it comes to relationships, my dislike is not really a big mistake."
She knew he was right, that within relationships, there was no right or wrong to like or dislike.
He didn't like her, and she couldn't go about judging him harshly for that.
Austin's only fault was that he didn't really treat her like a wife during those three years.
She herself was half at fault. She had to marry him in the first place, not he to marry her.
And because of this, she had exercised this utmost restraint with him since the divorce until now.
She was not really that strong or generous.
On the contrary, she was petty as hell.
She had always resented him, resented his indifference for those three years, so much so that to this
day, she couldn't really let go of him completely and totally.
People were like that, what they could not have was the best.
Austin was, and so was she.
He was the heroic young man of her fifteen years, the beginning of her love affair in her youthful
ignorance.
She was once so close to him that the distance within her reach became too much for her to resign
herself to.
She believed that time could make everything fade away, but apparently a year or so compared to the
past ten years only made it clear to her that relationships were for two people, and that being love was
just for her.
"Because of the loss, I know how to cherish it more. I'm not forcing you to accept me now, I'm just
asking that you can give me another chance."
He said, after a pause, "And give yourself a chance."
Hearing his words, Suny was startled and raised her hand to push him away, "Impossible, Austin! It's
impossible for a person to step into the same trap a second time."
She had missed out once and would not let herself be wrong again.
"It's not a trap this time, Suny."
He looked down at her, her face reflected inside those cool, dark eyes.
Suny looked up and abruptly smiled, "When I first jumped in, I didn't expect the trap."
She thought it was a mud puddle at best, but instead it was a trap that almost cost her most of her life.
Austin was stung by the smile at the corner of her mouth until his heart ached. After the divorce, Suny
became a scared bird.
It was he who wore away all her good hopes for marriage, and he who destroyed all her longings for
love.
He closed his eyes: "I won't force you."
The confrontation left Suny exhausted, "You're not in a position to force me, Austin."
This was a solid statement, Austin no longer continued the topic: "The soup is cold, drink it."
"You can go."
"If you don't have a fever anymore, I'll leave right away."
As soon as he said that, Suny directly reached out and pulled his hand over and pressed it to the top of
her forehead.
Austin was stunned for a rare moment, the warmth and greasiness beneath his palm made him covet
it, yet Suny did not give him a long time to linger.
But in two seconds, she pulled his hand away, "You can leave."
Austin looked at her for a moment, and the hand at his side could not help but press his palm against
hers.
He was greedy for the warmth and greasiness of what he had just felt and the fragrance of her all over
him, and the fact that this villa was full of her scent.
He didn't want to go.
"I haven't had lunch yet, can I eat before I go?"
It was this trick again, Suny felt that he completely took her for a fool: "Austin, you've used this trick
three times, do you think I'm stupid?"
"No."
He pursed his lips for a moment and was just about to speak, Suny uttered, "How long are you going to
bully me, Austin?!"
Her voice was hoarse as she yelled out, her eyes flushed, and Suny suddenly burst into tears.
