To the Love of My Life-Chapter 845 - Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 15)_1
Chapter 845: Chapter 845 Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 15)_1
Madeleine didn’t give Ruby Gregory any chance to speak; she just pushed Ruby out of Howard Coleman’s apartment and then, as if she had lost all her strength, leaned against the door, her eyes wide open, staring fixedly at the wide French windows right opposite her.
Her eyes, red and swollen from crying, were now surprisingly clear, without a single tear streaming down.
Madeleine had been leaning against the door for quite some time before she slowly stood up, returned to the master bedroom, took a bath, changed into clean clothes, and left the house.

Upon arriving at the company, Madeleine handled her work and then locked her office door from the inside. Alone, she sat at her desk and started reviewing the upcoming projects of Pristine’s Enterprises saved on her computer, her gaze eventually resting on a project in Oceania which was scheduled for three and a half years.
For such large-scale projects, they usually send someone reliable to oversee it on-site. Because it requires a long commitment and is far away overseas, they haven’t yet decided who to send.
Madeleine kept looking at the project, over and over, but in the end, she still hadn’t made up her mind whether she wanted to go or not.
...
When Madeleine got home that evening, it was already eleven o’clock. Howard Coleman was back as well, sitting on the living room sofa, watching TV.
She hadn’t prepared a late-night snack tonight, so after simply greeting Howard, she went into the master bedroom, took a bath, and went to bed early.
Howard Coleman, in the living room, watched the door to the master bedroom for a while. Then he picked up his mobile phone, which displayed a text message from Anita Madris: “Howard, I’m leaving Ciawell on tomorrow’s flight. Make your choice between her and me, because you still owe me a breakup.”
Howard Coleman tossed the phone aside as if nothing was wrong, continuing to watch TV until midnight, when he finally turned off the TV and walked into the bedroom.
Madeleine, lying motionless in bed, appeared to be asleep. Howard Coleman quietly took a bath and then climbed into bed.
Having not slept at all the previous night and going to bed early, Madeleine still couldn’t fall asleep. As Howard lay down beside her, she inhaled the familiar scent of the man and suddenly felt a sourness in her nose, burying her head deep into the bedding.
The room was very quiet and it was a long while before Madeleine quietly opened her eyes and looked at Howard Coleman’s profile. His features were as handsome as she remembered, causing her heart to flutter. She hadn’t even had time to love him fully, so how could she bear to part with him? Her emotions, barely calmed, broke through again, and tears uncontrollably began to flow.
Thinking that Howard had fallen asleep, Madeleine didn’t turn around, hiding from him and crying silently, just watching Howard and weeping quietly to herself.
Howard Coleman was not asleep, however; he simply lay there with his eyes closed, thinking about things without being sure what exactly. Eventually, he slowly opened his eyes and instinctively turned his head to glance in Madeleine’s direction. That’s when he saw the girl staring at him, her face streaming with tears.
Howard’s expression froze momentarily, and he distinctly felt a fleeting pang of heartache deep inside him.
