HONEY, Love Me One More Time

Chapter 73: Don't Go

Night fell when Estelle finally had a comprehensive understanding of the company. Then she sorted out the notes she had taken today, stood up, and turned off the light. Mr. Mysterious was returning soon, so she couldn’t turn on the light. About ten minutes later, Mr. Mysterious pushed the door open, came in, and then locked the door. He seemed to be in a bad mood today. When he saw Estelle, he asked in a gloomy voice, “Have you had dinner?” Estelle shook her head and said, “Not yet.” “Why didn’t you have dinner?” Mr. Mysterious asked. “I was busy and didn’t have time to eat... Sir, have you eaten yet? If not, I’ll cook some food for you right now,” Estelle offered. When she turned around and was about to go to the kitchen, her wrist was suddenly grabbed. The next moment, she lost her balance and was pulled into Mr. Mysterious’ arms. Then she smelled the familiar scent of his cologne again. Estelle found that she had been used to the smell. Previously, she felt that the smell was a little strange and didn’t like it at all. But now, she could accept it. And every time she smelled it, she would feel safe. “Estelle…” Mr. Mysterious rested his chin on her head and gently called her name. Being tightly held in his arms, Estelle felt a little uneasy and struggled slightly. “Don’t move. Let me hug you for a while,” Mr. Mysterious said. Estelle’s heart thumped, and she said, “Sir... It’s not appropriate for us to be like this. I haven’t gotten divorced yet. I’m still...” “Hush,” Mr. Mysterious interrupted her and took a deep breath. “I won’t do anything to you. I feel a little tired now, but hugging you can make me feel relaxed. Just take it as a hug between friends, okay?” His voice was full of helplessness and depression. Estelle was a little surprised. In her impression, Mr. Mysterious had always been omnipotent. However, she had never seen him so upset. “Sir, are you drunk?” she asked.

“If only I could be drunk. If I were drunk, I wouldn’t feel heartache.” “Did anything happen to you today?” “Yes. There is one thing that makes me heartbroken to death...” Mr. Mysterious sadly responded. “Is it... about you beloved woman?” Mr. Mysterious smiled bitterly and said, “Yes. Who else can it be to make me so sad, except for her? I’m afraid only she can break my heart easily in this world. Estelle, are all women so heartless?” “What?” Estelle was stunned. Mr. Mysterious spoke in a low mumble as if he was saying it to himself. “She’s cold and heartless. And she never cares about my feelings at all when she talks to me...” Estelle couldn’t help feeling sorry for him when she heard this. She understood his sadness. In the past years, every hurtful word Cristofer had thrown at her was like a sharp knife that stabbed into her heart. The heartache made her despair, and she still could feel the painful feeling when she thought of the past. “Sir, whether a person is heartless or not has nothing to do with gender. Those who are heartless never listen to others or care about others’ feelings. They only believe what they want to believe. No matter how hard you explain to them, they won’t believe you.” Hearing this, Mr. Mysterious relaxed; almost all his weight was on her. “Yes, you’re right. It has nothing to do with gender. Estelle, we two are the same, suffering in love.” “Yes, we are. But, Sir, we should be optimistic. Since we are still alive, we should cherish our life and make them meaningful. We not only live for ourselves but also for our family and friends. As for those who are heartless, just ignore them. As long as we don’t care about them, they will be nothing to us,” Estelle uttered in a soothing voice. Hearing her, Mr. Mysterious seemed to be stunned. Then he repeated her words in a low voice, “As long as we don’t care about them, they will be nothing to us.” “Yes. For example, Cristofer could easily hurt me by saying a few words before because I cared about him. But now, I don’t care about him at all. I don’t care about who he is with now or whether he hates me or not.” “And no matter what he says, I never feel sad anymore. I will live better, fight for the custody of myThis belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

daughter, and take good care of my mother. I also promised myself to work hard to earn money and take them abroad to reunite with my son. Living with my family is far more meaningful than having him back.” When she finished her words, Mr. Mysterious hugged her tightly and said, “Estelle, don’t go.” “I’m here. I didn’t say I would go.” Estelle was confused. “You said... You are going abroad.” Mr. Mysterious’ voice became vague. “What should I do if you leave? How much money do you want? I will give it to you. Stay here. Stay by my side.” Estelle felt that there was something wrong with him today. Since she took him by the arm and coaxed him in a soft voice, “Sir, you’re... you’re heavy. Let me help you to the bed, may I?” It was not until then that Mr. Mysterious realised that all his weight was on her. Although he was not heavy, it was hard for a thin and weak woman like Estelle to bear his weight for a long time. Then he stood straight, hugged her gently, and said, “Estelle, promise me you won’t leave me.” “Sir, you should forget about the past and move on. I’ve got over my past. And I’m ready for my bright future and to work hard for those who I care about. You can also make it one day. And at that time, you won’t need me anymore.” “Really?” “Sure!” Estelle said. “Sir, you have helped me a lot. I won’t leave you alone. I will be with you until you overcome your past and cheer up.” Mr. Mysterious held her hand and chuckled. “What if I can’t get over it for the rest of my life?” “You can. Sir, you’re so smart and rational. You’ll make it soon. And the fastest way to forget about a relationship is to start a new relationship. Sir, you can go on a blind date or participate in some social activities. Maybe you’ll meet a girl who loves you and makes you happy.” “A blind date?” Mr. Mysterious repeated the words slowly. “If you don’t like a blind dates, you may go to some other activities. Actually, I don’t know how to get to know more people. I just took the blind date as an example.” “Then what did you do to get over Cristofer? You started a new relationship?” Mr. Mysterious asked.
