NovelEnglishChapter 512
A story?
Olivia was a little confused, but she replied ‘Of course,’ anyway.
[When I met her, I was still young, and I didn’t know what forever meant. All I was after was a glorified,
glamourous explosion of love, so I held back my feelings, and it caused us to drift apart.]
[By the time I realized that the wedge in between us had grown so wide that the sweet memories we
shared in the beginning had now become a thing of the past, I knew we could never return to back
then.]
At that time, Mr. M paused for a while.
Olivia watched the messages appear on the screen and waited for a continuation of the story, but there
were no newer messages for a long time.
She could not help but ask, [What happened after that?]
Mr. M did not reply, so Olivia went on to do other things.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr. M only replied after ten minutes.
[Sorry, my butler was asking me about some things.]
[No worries. Please feel free to continue.]
[Later after that, she left, and I suddenly found my world to be dark, gloomy, and dim. I had no direction
or motivation as I lived day to day. All I wanted was for her to come back, but she said. no.]
[After some time, I received a letter from her with all her accusations against me written in it.]
[Only then did I realize that my wrongdoings were far more than what I thought there were.]
[However, the thing that made me the saddest was not that she left, but that she also broke our ring,
the token of the love we shared, into pieces and gave it back to me.]
[She said that our love was exactly like this broken ring. It was utterly, completely shattered.]
Reading the messages that appeared on the screen, Olivia’s eyes became red-rimmed.
She could relate to how that lady was feeling when she left because she was the same when she
stabbed John four years ago. She was so hopeless that all she had left was hate.
Suddenly, there was a new message from Mr. M.
[Sometime after that, I heard that she died in a tragic car accident. I never got the chance to apologize
to her.]
[So, I wanted to make a ring that could tell this story, so I can bring the ring to visit her on our
anniversary.]
[I hope she knows that I’ve been repenting all this time, and I dare not forget what happened.]
By the time Olivia read all of this, she was sobbing.
To be honest, she had no idea why she was crying,
It just felt like her heart was aching, like something was stuck there.
A while later, it struck her that there were a lot of things that she had not let go of nor forgotten. She
was also crying for herself.
Olivia took some tissue to wipe her tears away and tried to calm her emotions. Then, she asked, [
Would you like the theme of your design to be ‘eternity’ or ‘regret’, Mr. M?]
[Regret.]
[Alright, no problem. I’ll contact you once I finish a draft.]

As soon as Olivia was done with her conversation with Mr. M, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Olivia thought it was Jennie, so she called out. “Come in!”
To her surprise, a black figure entered through the door.
“Pheebs ”
Xavier marched in. He was wearing a black suit with a bouquet of lavender in his hands. He walked
towards Olivia with a smile. “I’m finally back from a business trip. You…”
Before he could finish, he saw Olivia’s red-rimmed, doleful eyes, and his smile froze on his face.
He quickly grabbed some tissue paper and wiped the tears off her face. “Why are you crying? Who
bullied you?”
Right after that, he rolled up his sleeves and snarled, “Tell me, I’ll beat them up for you!”
Olivia was quick to hold Xavier back. “No one. Sand got into my eyes.”
He scrutinized her for a good ten seconds and shook his head. “No. You look really sad.”
She looked so sad it looked like she was broken, and it made him want to do something for her.
Then, Xavier reached out and pulled Olivia into his arms. Caressing her head, Xavier comforted her.
“This pitiful, sad look is really tempting me to kiss you.”
Olivia was shocked at this series of Xavier’s actions. She pushed him away quickly and stammered,
“S-stop it…”
