My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 1123

“Alright, Grapie. Let‘s get back to business,” Harold changed the topic, so she would not be left feeling awkward. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Oh, yes.” Ninian raised her head and smiled sheepishly. Her eyes lit up. “I‘m sorry, Raina. It‘s embarrassing to have you watch me act like this.”

“No worries.” Raina smiled and shook her head as she returned to her seat.

“Raina, we‘ve now told you why George lost contact with you. Are there any other misunderstandings between the two of you?” Harold did not beat around the bush and spoke pointedly.

Ninian blinked as she earnestly looked at Raina.

When Raina showed how serious Ninian and Harold were, she could no longer put on a cold expression. She sighed helplessly and laughed, feeling amused.

“What Ninian told me just now only lets me know that George didn‘t abandon me to be the heir of the company. But this doesn‘t change the fact that he won‘t communicate and share certain things with me.

“He either doesn‘t trust me or he doesn‘t find me that important. Moreover, he never lets me know beforehand

that he‘ll be disappearing for quite some time, nor does he contact me when he does get back.

“I know now that he was in a tough position at that time. But was he truly so busy to the point where he couldn‘t even give me a text?” Raina smiled bitterly and said, ” I‘ve never blamed him for not showing up at the right time to help me, but I‘m just wondering if he truly cared about me.”

“Raina …” Ninian could not help but speak up, “George actually cares about you, a lot!” “Is that so? Well, perhaps. But what‘s the use of saying this?” She shook her head, feeling anguished. “Back then, I chased after him with all I had, and stuck with him for a long time. Even so, he remained indifferent. You know, I was very insecure at that time, and I was afraid that he would abandon me at any time. He doesn‘t love me at all.” “Geo–”

Raina raised her hand and gestured to Ninian, who was desperately trying to explain. She continued , “Maybe he‘s not used to me being away from him, maybe he’s not convinced by my words, or maybe he‘s been feeling guilty when he noticed how miserable I became ever since he disappeared. In short, there are countless reasons why he still misses me and can‘t move on from this relationship.

“I personally feel the latter is the most likely. After all, he has always been so sensible and responsible. He must have agreed to get together with me when he took my first kiss. Before this, when I courted him for the longest of times, he had acted indifferently.

“Even so, he wasn‘t able to deceive himself after we got together. He doesn‘t love me, and that‘s the truth. Anyone and anything else comes before me. His studies, his job, his family, and even his hobbies… are all more

important than me.

“You know, he‘s not a good liar. I took the initiative to kiss him for the first time when he was asleep.” Raina chuckled. She did not hide the sadness and bitterness in her gaze. “Later on, I found out that he had been awake at that time. Because of that kiss, he avoided me for three days.”

“When we finally met again, I had to be cautious. I was afraid that I‘d offend him further, and that he‘ll hate me and try to avoid me again. Then, he‘d say goodbye for real.

“After what happened to my father and my brother, I searched for him everywhere, only to find out that I knew very little about him. I didn‘t even know his real identity or where he lived. Just like our other mutual friends, I could only wait for him to reach out to me. I wasn‘t able to reach out to him on my own. When he decided to shut himself out from my world, he turned into a ghost. .

“On my most helpless and desperate night, I leaned against the walls of the hospital corridor, unable to even cry. Behind that wall, my father had stopped breathing, and the doctors were trying to resuscitate my brother. I clutched my phone, but there was no one that I could ask for help…”

Tears streamed down her face, but she quickly wiped them away, showing no trace of tears.

She smiled and mocked herself, “That half a month was like a living hell to me. Do you know what made me make up my mind to give up on this relationship?”
