Chapter 909: She’s a Fool 1
In total, there are over fifteen hundred videos.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The background is all early morning, darkness.
Severo Laris goes to the computer and sits in front of it, going over line by line, without missing a detail.
Every word Paula Rouco says in the video, every expression she makes, does not escape Severo Laris.
In the quiet of the night, the only sound was her speaking on the video, her voice haggard and pale.
“Today is day 900 since I broke up with him. I’ve seen him on the news again, I’ve heard he’s doing well in his career now, I always knew he was good and would shine. But there will probably be a lot of people seeing how good he is now, I don’t want a lot of people to see how good he is …”
“Today is day 912 since I broke up with him. I’m losing sleep again, it’s my birthday and the day I met him three years ago. He also put the imperial block door code on this date, I think he has changed now…”
“Today is day 923 of the breakup with him and lately it’s been taking my sleep away. Dad called me to see how I was doing and told me he was coming to visit me in Philadelphia with Estrella and I wasn’t looking forward to seeing them …”
“Today is the 934th day since I broke up with him. It’s been bad weather in Philadelphia lately and I always forget my umbrella and get soaked. I always think someone will pick me up at the school gate, like three years ago, but he won’t pick me up from school. …”
“Today is day 950 of breaking up with him. I’ve been away from home too long and I’m a little homesick …”
“Today is the 955th day since I broke up with him. I want to eat minced pork with pickled beans and rice, but I can’t find the dish in Philadelphia restaurants and I don’t know how to cook …”
“Today is day 967 since I broke up with him. stern Laris, I miss you so much, will you come see me?”
In this video, she appears to be smiling and aggrieved, with slightly red eyes.
…
Severo Laris’ fingers twitched and he held down the pause button.
He couldn’t look away, his emotions like spilled and very aged wine, his chest burning with acrimony.
Watching the above videos, at the beginning of each, there is a record of the time and number of days she broke up with him, it is throbbing and startled.
It turned out that, for so long, she had loved him as much as he did.
He thought he was the only one who had tossed and turned in the dark of night thinking about him all these years.
He thought she would miss him too.
She might miss him when she was lonely, when no one would cook for her, or when she was sick and had a fever and wanted him to take care of her.
But she never imagined she would miss him so much, that she would miss him to the point of losing sleep and not being able to lift her spirits for anything.
Severo Laris takes a deep breath, his fingers tremble slightly, and he touches it again.
“Today is day 985 since I broke up with him. I’ve waited so long and it really doesn’t seem like Severo Laris is coming for me. I really want to go see him. He’s in New York. I even have the address of his company building. I can go to him, I miss him so much. But … if I go to him, I’m being humble again, he said not to be so humble. I don’t want him to dislike me…”
In the video, he desperately tries to hold back but keeps holding back tears.
Severo Laris patted his heart, shaking badly, his chest was tight and sore, and his eyes had scarlet corners.
The first time she had come to him, he had said, “Don’t be so humble, you will make me despise you.”
It was a phrase she remembered and believed to this day.
Severo Laris could hardly imagine how many times those words had stabbed him in the heart during countless long nights.
She had been such a capricious and proud person, how could she say something like that.
Damn it.
If she hadn’t said that in the first place, would she have been able to come to him sooner?
But time doesn’t go backwards and in life there are no buts.
“Today marks 1003 days since I broke up with him. angelo came to visit me in the united states and asked me to show him Philadelphia, he hadn’t been out in a long time and didn’t know which way to go. He asked me why I didn’t look happy. what does a kid like him know? If … I had told him I was unhappy because of Severo Laris, he would have laughed at me. After all, who would separate from someone for so long and remain unhappy because of that person all the time, I’m sick…”
“Today is day 1012 of breaking up with him. I’ve seen his interview, so many views on that interview, there will be a lot of people watching it I guess. The presenter who interviewed him must have liked it to keep looking at him, I don’t like people looking at him like that, it’s very sour.”
Severo Laris looked at the video aggrieved, like a child protecting his food.
She laughed helplessly and longingly, silly, who was going to like him as much as she did, and in the eyes of others, he wasn’t that good.
He was hers, all hers, forever.
“Today is the 1054th day to break up with him. Too much insomnia, I always feel dizzy and seem to be getting unhappy…”
“Today is the 1089th day since I broke up with him. I wanted to do something so that maybe he would notice and come to me.”
“Today is the 1090th day since I broke up with him. I’ve decided that I’m going to take up racing, I’ve heard that here in the United States, the odds of getting caught are high and you get fined a lot of money if you play life and death racing.”
Severo Laris’ heart, choked violently.
It was as if the blood in her body had frozen and clotted.
So, she was conducting a life and death race to get his attention?
Severus Laris’ throat lumped and what he swallowed was all choking and sour.
Whatever he was doing, even if he wasn’t doing those things, he would still be worried about her.
The man’s long, slender fingers, clenched into a fist.
How could she be so stupid as to do something so dangerous to get his attention?
Severo Laris’ eyes, red and scarlet.
He also misunderstood and miseducated her, believing she was driving a race car just for the thrill of fooling around.
Who would have thought she started driving a life and death race to get caught and get his attention.
But at the time, her career was on the rise and she was flying all over the world every day, so she didn’t have time to follow the news on the extranet. He would just visit her regularly, to see her from afar and check that she was leading a good life.
He hadn’t really noticed the news at the time that she had been arrested for driving a race car.
If he had seen it, he would have flown to Philadelphia to rescue her.
“Today is the 1102nd day since I broke up with him. I’ve been in police custody for 12 days and he hasn’t come to see me. It was my classmates who saw the news and came to get me out of jail. I am very sad, my classmates can see my news, why can’t Severo Laris see it, he really doesn’t care about me anymore? Doesn’t he care about me…. Severo Laris … does he still love me?”
She brushed the back of her hand and burst into tears of despair.
Severo Laris was stunned as he watched the video and unconsciously opened his mouth to say one word: “Love.”
Deeply loved.
“Today is the 1124th day to break up with him, Severo Laris, it seems I no longer have the patience to wait for you. Why you can stop following me but I have to follow you, I don’t want to follow you anymore, if you don’t love me then I will stop loving you, I will do as I say.”
Severo Laris raised his hand and covered his sore eyes.
He did not stop paying attention to her, he did not stop loving her, he visited her almost every month for the last seven years, standing in the corner where she could not be seen.
He thought she didn’t want to see him again and didn’t dare show up to irritate her easily.
If he had known that she wanted to see him so badly, he would have appeared before her.
Seven years, looking at her once a month, getting a picture of her each time. Those photos, even if they are separated by many people, maybe she is not in the center of the photo, maybe the shot is too blurry because she is so far away, but for Severo Laris, each one is a treasure.
He never forgot her, he never stopped loving her.
Hide it in your heart and forget it all day long.
Day to day, everything revolves around her.
