Chapter 35 -35 – How Can I Let Others Bully The Woman I Cherish The Most

Cherish Turner stood by the window, her smile particularly beautiful. She lifted her head, and William Griffith thought about how much she must like Daniel on the other end of the phone to smile like this.

He felt bitter inside, but he couldn’t say it outright.

However, gradually, Cherish’s smile began to fade and darken like a meteor falling.

On the other end of the phone, Daniel Peacock stood by a window, talking to Cherish.

Daniel Peacock had been the man Cherish liked since they were young. They went to middle school and high school together, and this year, they both graduated from University A. Cherish opened an online store and worked in a comic studio, while Daniel chose to study for a master’s degree in Kyoto.

Daniel’s family wasn’t well-off, so Cherish told him to go ahead and pursue his studies without worry. She would be more than happy to help him save for tuition.

At that time, Daniel was really good to Cherish. He said, “Cherish, once I graduate, we’ll get married. I’ll find a decent job in Kyoto, and from then on, I’ll take care of you and make sure you live a good life…”

Those words still lingered in her ears, but now, why had things changed?

“Cherish… I’m getting married. I hope you can come to my wedding.”

On the other end, Daniel said this with a smile at the corner of his mouth.

It was as if nothing had happened and as if all these years of feelings between them had never existed!

“…Really? Congratulations,” Cherish didn’t know why she didn’t get angry or curse him when he called, and instead, she congratulated him like this.

Her heart felt like it had a huge hole with blood flowing nonstop, but she didn’t know it hurt.

Cherish said these words with a smile on her face, looking out of the window, unable to focus.

She suddenly felt stupid and idiotic for investing so much emotion in a man who left her with nothing in the end.

Every month, she couldn’t bear to buy herself decent clothes or makeup. When she went to pick up goods, she always took some from Er Xi, feeling embarrassed about it.

Before, she thought none of that mattered. Every time she sent money to Daniel, she would smile happily because the man in Kyoto needed her, and she was more than willing to make sacrifices for him.

But in the end…

I’m getting married, and I hope you come to my wedding.

A simple sentence turned everything she had done over the years into a huge joke!

As she smiled, Cherish began to cry, silently, not wanting Daniel on the other end of the phone to hear her.

“Cherish, I’m sorry. I’ve let you down,” Daniel said. Perhaps he just wanted to feel better now by apologizing.

“About the money, I’ll pay you back, and also according to the bank’s interest rate. I’m… I’m sorry.”

Cherish listened with a heavy heart. Hate welled up and then subsided, torturing her over and over again.

She was still in William Griffith’s hospital room, unable to have an outburst. She didn’t want him to see her weakness.

“What are you talking about? We’re friends, so don’t be so distant. I helped you without expecting anything in return. Don’t worry about it. As for the wedding, I’ll be sure to attend,” she said.

William Griffith lay on the bed, watching her smiling face with tears streaming down. It looked as silly as it could be.

The woman whom he, William Griffith, planned to protect for a lifetime, how could she cry for another man?

He wouldn’t allow it!
