Qiao Yujuan felt sympathy for her daughter but hoped she would realize they couldn’t change the past. However, they had the opportunity to choose their future path. She wished her daughter would make the right choices and not suffer too much.

“1 know. Just like how he married Xu Yanxi, their relationship and the approval of the outside world seem more compatible,” Lin Wan replied to her mother.

As she uttered the last sentence, Lin Wan felt the pain piercing her heart, a profound agony.

Qiao Yujuan sighed deeply. Her daughter’s suffering caused her to feel extremely sad.

Lin Wan leaned against her mother and, after a while, tried to comfort her. “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll handle my affairs. You don’t need to be concerned about me.”

“Wanwan, you…” Qiao Yujuan wanted to inquire about her daughter’s plans and what Yichen had discussed with her, but Lin Wan cut her off before she could.

“Mom, get some rest. I’m going back to my room to sleep.” With those words, Lin Wan left her mother’s side and retreated to her room.

She lay on her bed and stared at the ceiling, struggling to control her emotions. Tears streamed down her face.

She missed him terribly, but she knew he was no longer hers.

Perhaps he had never truly been hers.

In Blue Bay villa, it was already 10.00 pm. Xiao Yichen hadn’t returned to his bedroom to rest. He stood alone by the window in his study, gazing out into the night. His emotions were tangled and uncomfortable.

Without the presence of Lin Wan, the entire house was cold. He didn’t even dare to go back to their bedroom. Sleep was impossible without her by his side.

Even though he lay down, he couldn’t fall asleep without her.

Slowly, his eyes welled up with tears, and he whispered, “Wan’er, 1 miss you.”

The following morning, Xiao Yichen got dressed and descended the stairs. He left the villa hurriedly without even eating breakfast, heading toward Dream Phil Company.

When Lin Wan arrived at the company, she saw Xiao He from the administrative department waiting outside the design department.

“Morning,” Lin Wan greeted Xiao He.

“Good morning, Lin Wan.” Xiao He returned the greeting and said, “I’ve been instructed to wait for you.”

Lin Wan was puzzled, and she stopped to look at Xiao He. “Wait for me? What’s going on?”

“The manager just instructed me to tell you to go to his office immediately as soon as you arrive. There’s an important document on his desk. You should retrieve it. It’s quite urgent,” Xiao He explained.

Lin Wan didn’t quite comprehend the situation, and her mind was still chaotic. She had no idea about the content of the manager’s message.

However, she decided to heed his instructions, as it was coming from her superior, and any delay could result in severe repercussions.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll go to his office right away.” Lin Wan nodded, placed her bag in the office, and proceeded toward the manager’s office.

Lin Wan surmised that her manager was not present at the moment. She approached the manager’s office and gently pushed the door open.

Yet, as Lin Wan entered, she instantly grasped the meaning behind Xiao He’s words and the manager’s intentions when she saw the man in the office.

Upon seeing Lin Wan’s entrance, Xiao Yichen stood and moved toward her.

However, Lin Wan’s first instinct was to avoid him.

She moved to leave, but Xiao Yichen circled his arms around her from behind before she could open the door.

“Wan’er…” Xiao Yichen murmured affectionately into her ear..
