Chapter 23
Upon hearing the news, Krista’s heart was tossed into a storm as if a giant stone had been thrown upon it.
She didn’t expect that from Rosa’s perspective, it would be such a completely different story.
Although she was shocked, she did not believe that these were the facts.
After all, when it comes to matters of love, one knows best whether it is warm or cold, just like a person knows the temperature of the
water they drink,
If Frankie really liked her, wouldn’t she notice at all?
So, faced with Rosa’s earnest consolation and explanation, she remained silent for a moment before responding.
“Regardless of whether his feelings toward you were love, family, or friendship, in my opinion, they were much deeper than those toward me, his ex–wife. The reason I wanted to divorce him was not solely because of your appearance, but also because of the accumulation of various things from the past, which made me see the essence of marriage and ultimately left me completely disappointed.”
As Rosa watched her calmly state the facts, she also felt deeply touched.
The advice that had not been spoken yet stopped at the lips.
The gazes of the two individuals met in the air, and Krista looked at her slightly reddened eye sockets, letting out a soft sigh.
“This matter, after all, is between me and Frankie. You are innocent and should not have been involved. Now that the divorce between him and me has become a fact, even I, as the party involved, can move on. As a bystander, what is there for you to be entangled with? Let go of everything and live your own life well. Both you and I still have a chance to start over.”
Although this ended, Rosa’s emotions in her heart could not be calmed for a long time.
She sat alone in her seat for a long time before she understood the meaning behind Krista’s words
All that happened yesterday, like yesterday’s death.
All things today, like today’s birth.
In an instant, the dark clouds and fog that had accumulated in her heart dispersed.
She got up and walked to the next compartment, pushing open the door.
The room was extremely quiet. Looking at Frankie, who was leaning back in the chair and remaining silent, she softly called out to him.
“Frankie, are you okay?”
All the conversations between the two just
just now were faithfully transmitted into Frankie’s ears.
He wasn’t feeling well, but in front of Rosa, he restrained all his emotions and pretended to be calm.
fine.”
With a slight tremor in her voice, Rosa quickly noticed.
She lowered her head and sat down in front of him, thinking for a long time before finding a few comforting words.
“I can understand Krista’s mood. Although I don’t know what has happened between you two in these three years, it must have made her very unhappy, which is why she wants to end it all and start over. Franke, since she has let go of the past, you shouldn’t dwell on it
anymore.”
Did Frankie not know the truth that Rosa spoke?
He simply understood that the pain and despair Krista felt in their marriage originated from him.
He was the main culprit who caused this outcome, so what qualifications does he have to talk about letting go?
No amount of consolation was effective for him.
He also didn’t want Rosa to worry about him anymore, so he changed the subject and said he would take her back
At the moment of parting, Rosa asked hiru a question.
“Frankle, c
could you
let go of Krista?”
Sure!
No way, Frankle thought.
A nostalgie smile appeared a
on his face, while his voice carried a hint of determination.
“she pursued me for ten years, and although I married her, I never treated her well or valued her. So losing her is just the punishment I deserve. After three years of marriage, she has become an indispensable part of my life. How can I just let go? Whether she dislikes me or hates me, I want to give it another try, regardless of the outcome, just following my heart.”
Rosa didn’t persuade anymore, she raised her hand and waved, a genuine smile appearing on her lips.
