Chapter 21 Magee Was No Match For Him
Chapter 21 Magee Was No Match For Him
Aaron looked at him with a smile, his eyes full of cold light. "But, I married Rita, not you. From this moment on, I'm the winner."
His tone was so cold that people around him could not breathe.
Magee had nothing to say to Aaron. He just took a look at him, turned around and walked out of the office.
When Rita came with Wendy, Magee just ran into her. He didn't know what was wrong with him. Thinking of what had happened in recent years, he felt depressed. He went up and grabbed Rita's arm and said, "I have something to tell you."
With a grim face, Magee took Rita to the balcony before she could react.
Seeing this, Wendy hurried to look for Aaron.
"I haven't finished my words early on," said Magee calmly. He couldn't help but grab her hand and said, "Rita, don't marry Aaron."
Rita's heart thumped, and the tremendous pain made her dizzy. "Why?"
She waited for him to ask. If he did, she might give up everything and go with him.
A trace of astonishment flashed in Magee's eyes. He forced himself to calm down by reason, then he sighed softly. "You will not be happy if you marry him, and he won't really treat you well. People like him will only play with other people's feelings. Rita, I don't want to see you suffering."
With her eyes wide open, Rita couldn't help laughing. "Is that all?" She thought that Magee was going to make a confession of love. "Is there any other reason?"
Magee was dazed for a moment. After a while of hesitation, he did not speak.
She got rid of his grip, and her eyes were full of disappointment. "I don't know why, but I was expecting just now."
He knew that she was expecting.
"I thought you would tell me..." It's you who don't want me to get married." Rita looked extremely disappointed.
"I'm sorry."
He owed her. No matter how much he loved her, he just couldn't say the words. "Riri, I know you are waiting for me."
Rita was stunned. She turned around and wiped the tears in her eyes. "Yes, I'm waiting for you. I've been waiting for you, but you have never responded to me. I don't know if I was wrong. I don't know if I'm thinking too much about us."
Magee concealed the unrest in his heart. His heart was also hurt, but he could not say a few simple words.
"No, you did nothing wrong." He took a deep breath. "There are some things that I can't face. It has nothing to do with you. It's me. It's all my fault."
He hit the wall with his fist, with anger rising in his heart.
He couldn't love the one he loved and protect the one he loved from any harm.
"Is it because of the Jiang family?" Rita had a wild guess. "Is it because of the Jiang family? So... It's impossible between you and me."
She was persistent. She stared into his eyes, tears in them. "I've liked you for so many years, and you've always known it. But you don't want to face me at all. I thought you didn't have any feelings for me, but I could feel your feelings." She touched her heart. "Why, Magee, tell me why."
Why did he refuse to face his feeling?
Magee's sight became deeper and his heart ached so much as he did not dare to face Rita. He also did not know how to answer her question.
There was a dead end between the two of them and it seemed that no one could untie it.
Far away, a tall figure was looking at them. He narrowed his eyes and enjoyed the whole process.
Wendy stood behind Aaron and wondered why he didn't stop him. "You are so nice to Miss Gu. You don't want miss Gu to be taken away, do you?"
With only one glance at her, Aaron answered casually and confidently, with one hand in the pocket on his pants. "There's no way that Magee will be my opponent."
"Not necessarily. They grew up together and have deep feelings for each other," Wendy added. "You want me to check Miss Gu's background. I've done a lot of research. She has excellent academic performance and outstanding appearance. She is very popular, but she has never dated anyone. It's said that it is for the sake of Mr. Magee."
"To wait for him?" "Then she must have been mistaken." Aaron sneered Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"They like each other, but no one make a love confession yet. If he does, Miss Gu would probably break off the marriage in a rage, which is not impossible."
After she finished her words, she secretly observed the expression of Aaron. He did not speak. His eyes grew cold. "She won't."
"It's not impossible. I think Miss Gu is stubborn."
But the man didn't take her advice. When she turned around and was about to go back to her office, she asked, "if Miss Gu elopes with another man, will you regret it?"
Then she left.
Aaron stared at Rita's back. For him, there was no such a word as "regret" in his life. But if a done deal fell apart, he would not be reconciled.
He didn't want to lose to Magee.
Then he stepped forward and asked with a forced smile, "What are you two talking about?"
