Bye, My Ex-husband

Chapter 47: Alana Is In Love



Chapter 47: Alana Is In Love

It was late at night and Janessa was watching TV in the living room of her apartment.

After eating the last chip, Janessa threw the bag into the trash and continued watching the boring TV show.

Now that the project plan was finished, she could finally relax.

She turned off the TV then walked into the bathroom with her iPad, planning to watch the movie that she downloaded.

She laid in a bathtub full of rose petals and happily watched the film. She often found that present-day TV dramas were not nearly as good as classic movies.

In the past few days, she had been busy with both work and housework, so she was exhausted.

It was a treat to get to relax and take a bath.

When she was half asleep, she suddenly raised her head.

The movie had reached the climax.

Tears welled up in her eyes, no matter how many times she watched this scene as the hero said goodbye to the heroine.

Everyone was on their own mission.

The heroine's mission was to help the hero grow.

If the hero didn't leave her, he would never make a difference in the world.

Perhaps, he would learn the meaning of life in this painful way.

Once the movie ended, Janessa realized that she had been in the bathtub for more than an hour.

She stood up, dried herself, and put on her bathrobe.

At the sight of the shelf beside her, a scene from more than a month ago appeared in her mind.

She thought about the day she hurt Rayan, and then she found out she was the third wheel in this relationship.

Were they like the hero and the heroine in the movie? Janessa shook her head with a bitter smile.

No, they weren't.

The hero and the heroine in the movie loved each other deeply, but she and Rayan only took advantage of each other.

They were both ruthless people.

Back in the bedroom, Janessa laid on the bed and checked her phone.

She had several missed calls from Alana.

She called her back, but no one answered.

Janessa sat up.

She listened for the voice on the other end of the phone.

There was no response, so she hung up the phone and called again.

No one answered.

‘Has something happened?’ Janessa got out of bed and grabbed a random assortment of clothes out of her closet.

When she was half dressed, she stopped as she heard someone unlocking the door.

Grabbing something sharp nearby for self-protection, Janessa slowly walked towards the living room, only to see Alana's anxious face.

"What are you doing here? Why didn't you answer your phone?"

At the sight of Alana, Janessa felt relieved.

She put the thing in her hand down.

"It was you who wasn't answering the phone.I thought something had happened to you, so I came to check on you.What were you doing just now? Why couldn't I get through?"

"I was in the bath My phone was muted."

Janessa scratched her head, embarrassed.

Now she understood that it was her fault.

Taking Alana’s hand, Janessa led her to the sofa and began to massage her shoulders.

"I'm sorry.I didn't mean to worry you.Please forgive me."

"Don't do it again.Next time you do that, I'll kill you!"

Alana had rushed over from her home.

She was relieved to see that Janessa was fine.

It was scary when Janessa didn't answer her phone or video calls.

It was too late to go back now.

Alana called and told her family that she was safe so she could stay at Janessa's home that night.

They laid on the bed together as if it was a sleepover night when they were still in school.

"Do you remember that night you broke up with your boyfriend? We laid on my bed for hours talking shit about him."

"Yes.He was awful, but I can't even remember what he looked like now."

Alana tried her best to recall his appearance, but she couldn't remember him at all.

"I've forgotten it too.I just remember that you said you liked him so much that you wanted to marry him.But then he slept with another girl."

"Stop it.That's so embarrassing,"

Alana said, covering Janessa's mouth with her hand.

Although they were so young and immature then, the memory of that time was both so pure and hurtful.

"Let's stop talking about me.Now that you've divorced Rayan, what are you going to do?"

"I don’t know.I suppose I'll keep working for the Lu Group and think about it later."

"I don't understand why you have to work at the Lu Group since you and Rayan have divorced.

Everything has all been settled, right? I think it would be better if you went back to the Qiu Group."

Alana didn't understand it.

She had a guess why Janessa was still working for the Lu Group, but she was not certain.

This, however, was a good opportunity to ask her.

Janessa looked up at the ceiling for a long time without saying anything.

"Don't do anything stupid just for revenge.I want you to be happy and live your own happy life."

If her baby was still alive, Janessa wouldn't be so lonely. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Then she would at least have a child to look after.

It was a pity that the baby was gone.

Janessa sighed.

She turned to Alana and asked, "What about you and Eric?"

Knowing that Janessa didn't want to talk about it anymore, Alana didn't press her.

Instead, she sighed and said, "He's stupid.I asked him out, but he said he was too busy practicing his music.He doesn't have the time to go out with me."

Alana looked sad at the mention of him.

The boys she had liked in the past were more outgoing, and would happily go out with her.

But Eric was young, inexperienced, and somewhat clueless when it came to love.

"He is so...unromantic.Are you sure you want to be with him? You should think it over carefully.Both of you are the most important people in my life.I wouldn't want this to end badly."

Janessa didn't particularly like this match, but if the two of them really were in love, she would not try to stop them.

After all, it was their business, not hers.

"Yes, I'm so sure.I've never been so sure of anything.Even though I've only met him twice up until now, I think I'm in love with him.I've never felt like this before.And I really mean it this time.Love at first sight really is real,"

Alana replied, a serious look on her face.

Looking at Alana, Janessa saw that she was truly in love.

Eric was the first man that she have ever cared for so deeply.

Janessa hoped that Alana would be happy, and, at the very least, not end up like her: alone and divorced.
