It Was You

Chapter 809 Rake Up The Past

Beth bit her lips tightly, tears welling up in her eyes. It was not until now that she realized how heavy his love was. She couldn't afford it and dared not accept it.

Cassandra couldn't stand it anymore. She patted on her shoulder and said, "Miss Beth, since we are already here, let's go to see Lucian first."

Beth took a deep breath to calm herself down. "Okay."

Cassandra nodded slightly. Koda rolled his eyes at the two of them, as if he wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought. Cassandra coughed and said, "Mr. Koda, don't worry. I don't like women."

Koda was speechless.

'Are young people so open-minded now?'

Koda smiled awkwardly, "Samuel, you must be kidding. Please come in."

After saying that, Koda took Cassandra and the others all the way to the yard of the manor. Lucian was pruning the flower nursery in the yard. So many things had happened in the past few days, and Roger mentioned the past again. It was inevitable that he was upset, so he found this job to kill time.

"Koda, didn't I tell you that I don't want to see anyone these days? No matter who comes, just send them away?" Squatting in the middle of the flower nursery, Lucian said unhappily while carefully pruning the branches.

Lucian, who used to be as young as a green onion, was now in his middle age. He had a mature haircut and a beard on his chin. He looked like a middle-aged uncle. It could be seen that time did not forget leave traces on people, and everyone was equal.

Koda walked over excitedly, "No, Mr. Lucian, see, who is coming?"

Lucian looked up and inadvertently looked in the direction of Beth and Cassandra. The scissors in his hand slipped to the ground and he almost thought that he had an illusion.

How could it be possible?

Beth stood still, like a fully drawn bowstring. Although she had made all kinds of mental preparations along the way, and thought even if she would be laughed at coldly, she would not give in at all. But when she saw Lucian unexpectedly, she suddenly did not know what to do.

It seemed that it was unnecessary to do anything.

There was silence between the two people. Neither of them knew what to say to break the damn silence.

"I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

The two of them almost spoke at the same time. This late "sorry" was like a sharp knife, rolling across the hearts of the two, but leaving a deep and bottomless wound, bleeding.

'Does it hurt?'

How could it not be painful? At that time, not only Lucian was hurt physically, but also in his heart. But so many years had passed, his pain and anger had already turned into endless longing. He always knew his heart. As long as Beth came back, he would catch her even if he was smashed to pieces.

Clenching her fists, she blurted out, "It was all my fault. I pushed you into a desperate situation. Lucian, I'm sorry. "

Lucian shook his head, "You didn't do anything wrong to me. I have said that you don't have to do that."

Beth was too sad to say a word. The two stood still and looked at each other without blinking. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Cassandra felt that she had watched a great show. Whether it was because of the incident at that time, or because of the fall of Beth. The media had never reported that the two of them had an old relationship. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes today, she wouldn't have believed it.

Cassandra couldn't help coughing and said in a low voice, "Well, Director Lucian and Miss Beth have been separated for a long time. I shouldn't have broken the atmosphere, but I have something else to discuss with Director Lucian. Well, Director Lucian, how about we have a business talk first? "

Lucian came back to his senses and looked at Cassandra, "Should I call you Mr. Samuel or Miss Cassandra?"

To be honest, from a director's point of view, Cassandra's performance was indeed very amazing. In addition, from the play "God of War", Cassandra's acting skill was verified. Such an actress was born for art.

However, Cassandra's identity was too complicated and changeable, which was probably not something he could control, so Lucian didn't think about it.

Cassandra waved her hand, "Director Lucian, you can do whatever you want. In fact, I came here for another purpose, that is, to pay back the justice that Roger owed you years ago."

Hearing this, Lucian stared at Cassandra in silence. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Cassandra. I think I don't need it."

Before Cassandra could say anything, Beth asked first, "Why? It was obvious that I and Roger set you up on purpose. In fact, nothing happened between us. It was because Roger gave me the condition to

make me famous in the future that I was tempted and helped him wrong you. Now I am willing to tell the truth. Lucian, I almost destroyed you. Do you know? "

With a lonely look on his face, Lucian smiled and said, "I know, although the GR Group was very powerful at that time, it was not able to control everything. It was not so complicated to find out the ins and outs of the matter. I didn't do that, because I just didn't want to get you involved. Now that so many years have passed, why do you mention it again?"

Hearing this, Beth's back suddenly froze and her eyes stared at Lucian in disbelief.

'How is that possible?'

Lucian had known that it was a trap, but why didn't he tell the truth? In the end, he even compensated the GR Group with a large sum of liquidated damages.

Cassandra looked at Lucian, "It seems that I'm right. You were coerced by Roger back then, and now you are also coerced by Roger. It's all because of Miss Beth."

Lucian kept silent for a few seconds and said, "You're right. Up to now, I have nothing to hide. If it weren't for that matter, I planned to propose to Beth when the new company was established. But unfortunately, I'm not lucky enough. I can't wait for that day."

"What if I tell you that I have a way to avenge you?" Cassandra said.

Lucian shook his head and said, "I know you want Beth to testify and announce the truth of that matter again. But in this way, how can she gain a foothold in the capital city and even in the whole country? She has nothing now. Do you want me to force her to die? "

In the past, he didn't expose Roger just to protect Beth. Now that everything had been settled, he didn't have to rake up the past, which would only add trouble to himself.
