Chapter 359 Her Ex-Husband’s Gift (2)

Sofia handed the card to Hailey. Looking at the familiar handwriting on it, Hailey felt like her heart was stabbed by a needle.

She was not twenty-six years old yet.

After a pause, she opened the gift box with her cold fingers.

In it, there was a pair of pearl earrings, which were very cute and beautiful. Even Sofia, who had never worn earrings, thought they were perfect.

There was a card in every gift for Hailey.

What was more, there were jewelry, clothes, toys, and books in those bags.

Sofia was flabbergasted as she looked at the cloakroom and all kinds of gifts on the clothes rack. “It seems that Owen has prepared gifts for all the festivals in the next three years for you.”

Hailey was too weak to stand firm, so she squatted down beside a huge brown bear with a bitter smile on her face.

“Do you think he did it on purpose?”

In the past three years, she had prepared gifts for him at festivals every year.

“So, did he plan to return them all as I used to do? Why did he have to make me sad in the past three years and even now? He should have just let me go,” she thought.

Hailey put her hand on her forehead and shed tears silently.

Everyone wished that their love could last forever, and of course, they longed for an unforgettable love.

However, it shouldn’t be this way.

She would rather that Owen was alive, and they continued to go on like this. One day, the two of them were tired and willing to move on so that they could break up peacefully, which was the best ending.

However, Owen disappeared from her life in such a tragic way and left her with a memory that she would never forget.

“Is this what he wants?” she wondered.

When Hailey walked out of Grace Residence, she suffered from hypoglycemia and felt dizzy, her mind going blank for a while.

What was more, she was pale as death.

Seeing this, Sofia quickly helped her to a restaurant at the gate of the community and asked a waiter for candies, and fed Hailey with them.

The sweet candy eased the bitterness in Hailey’s mouth, which made her feel better.

It happened to be time for dinner, so Sofia ordered several dishes.

However, Hailey had no appetite at all.

“You didn’t eat much at noon, so you should eat something now.”

Sofia handed the fork to Hailey and watched her eat.

Hearing this, Hailey had no choice but to take the fork.

“The fish is good. Taste it.”

Although Sofia tried to persuade Hailey to eat, she couldn’t eat much in depression.

The sun was scorching hot outside.

Sofia reasoned that it would be cool in autumn, but it had been hot these days.

Sitting in the restaurant with the air conditioner on, she still felt upset.

“It suddenly occurred to me that one year during the military vacation, Owen and Matthew, and I once went to a small restaurant to eat and drink.”

After a brief pause, she added with a faint smile, “At that time, the three of us didn’t know each

other’s family background. I thought that Owen should be from an ordinary family, and his parents might be all officials, which was why he was so silent. As for Matthew, I thought he was a street gangster, and he was sent to the army for training so that he could go to a better school, which turned out to be all wrong.”

She drank half a glass of beer and wiped her mouth. “I used to joke with Matthew that among the three of us, Owen must be the most difficult one to be in love with. However, he was the first. to get married.”

She grinned at Hailey and added, “You saved him.”

Hailey looked at Sofia, unable to smile.

The two clinked glasses and cheered.

Hailey shook her head and said, “I was not capable enough to save him. In fact, I just loved him once, which hurt both of us deeply. In the end, no one could save each other, and we were both heartbroken.”

With that, she smiled bitterly and drank another glass of wine. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“Sofia, I used to think that love was the best thing in the world because my parents were very happy,” Hailey said slowly and clearly. “Mom told me that I must find a man who loves me with all his heart. Of course, I should do the same. I listened to her, but unfortunately, I only made myself in love. I found the one I loved, but he didn’t love me. At that time, I was not afraid at all, thinking that I was so beautiful, smart, and rich that he would definitely fall in love with me one day However, I forgot that I was just pretending to be an obedient, sweet, sensible, and silly woman who only loved him. As time went by, I believed I was such a humble pushover, losing the support of my family and the real me. It was like I had lost my soul.”

After a brief pause, she closed her eyes and added, “I remember that he went out on a business trip for several days. I was waiting for him at home. When he finally came back, I happily ran to him, took off his clothes, and brought him slippers. However, he told me he was my wife, not his nanny, so I didn’t need to do these things. At that time, I really felt that I was a bitch. How could I be so humble for a man?”

To put it bluntly, Hailey was just deceiving herself.

Sofia looked at her and said softly, “A lot of people are like you. Once you love someone more than you love yourself, you will be humble.”

In fact, what benefits could it bring?

In that case, even if a man really fell in love with her, she was not the real her anymore.

As for the woman who had lost her own charm, it was difficult for a man to fall in love with her.

Therefore, girls must be confident and have their own charm. Before loving others, they must first learn to love themselves.

Love was just a small part of life, not all.

Hailey spent all her youth on Owen, and he played a very important role in her life.

She thought she had forgotten those memories, but she didn’t expect them to be still vivid in her mind.

It turned out that they were unforgettable.

Now, she could frankly admit that she still loved Owen.

Unfortunately, it was too late.
