Maybe we had not met for a long tand had grown distant, so he was not standing very close to me.
There was a street lamp behind him. Under the bright light, his charm grew deeper and more obscure. His
weariness was faintly showing.
| pursed my lips and mildly said, "What a coincidence, Mr. Zimmer.”
Matthew faintly smiled. "Not a coincidence at all. I've been looking everywhere for you."
I did not know what to say for a moment, and after thinking about it, | said, "Thanks for the concern, Mr.
Zimmer."
Matthew's gaze deepened. "You don't seem happy to see me."

voice was deep and low.
| lowered my eyes. "I'm doing fine. Thanks for asking, Mr. Zimmer."
The smile on Matthew's face grew stiff. "I'll keep waiting for you. There's plenty of tleft in this lifetime. | hope
| can one day see you cto me. It's fine even if you don’t come. I'll get to you first in the next lifetime."
A car stopped behind him at this time. The window at the back rolled down, and the
man looked in our direction.
| was a little shocked, but after | was done feeling shocked, I looked at Matthew and said, "I appreciate the
affection, Mr. Zimmer, but I'll say this again. Don't waste your life waiting for me. | have a family of my own, and
I'm doing fine. Your appearance will only cause trouble for me, s o | hope you won't appear in my life. | hope you
won't even guardin secret. | don’t want other men apart from Theo to think about me."
Matthew chuckled bitterly. "You can reject all pursuits for him, but is he really worth your loyalty? If he is, why did

"What are you thinking about, Wanda?"
| did not reply immediately.
After a long silence, | responded, "I left him not because | didn’t love him anymore, but because | didn't think |
deserved him after looking at our past. | didn’t know how to convince myself to feel worthy of his outstanding
qualities and his affection. I left his side because | love him too much and thought he deserves better. For that, |
was willing to let go."
Matthew shivered. My words had left him pale.
He lowered his head and chuckled bitterly. "No matter what, | promised to wait for you forever. | will keep my
word. If | can’t get you this lifetime, I'll get you first the next lifetand give you a love that isn’t inferior to
Theo's."
There was nothing | could say seeing how stubborn he was.

not lose the happiness that truly belongs to you."
| continued after a pause, "Theo and | have already reconciled. Now that you've met m e, | hope you'll return to
Whaldorf City after your business here is finished.”
In other words, | was telling him not to appear in my life again.
"You reconciled?" Matthew's expression changed.
In order to make him give up, | blandly said, "Our reconciliation this tmeans that we won't argue again. We'll
be better than before. You didn't manage to wait for my change of heart back then, and you won't manage to
wait for it now either. Stop wasting your ton me.”
| showed him the ring on my ring finger after saying that.
