Chapter 185 The ex-girlfriend called

“Hello!” Allen took a deep breath, trying to answer the phone in a calm tone.

“Allen, it’s me!” There came a female voice from the other end of the phone that was too familiar to not

recognize. It was humble and cheerful, “It’s been four years. How are you doing?”

Allen smiled, “Great.”

He was doing great because he had Joey now.

Yolanda paused for a second. She could detect a note of happiness and contentment in his voice. She

said softly, “I’m home.”

Allen was silent.

Yolanda was finally hurt by his indifference. But she knew she was in no position to be mad at him. She

said sadly, “Allen, won’t you come and see me? We haven’t seen each other for four years. Haven’t

you missed me at all?”

Allen’s heart sunk. He had missed her sometimes, because she was his first girlfriend after all. He

remembered how happy they had been back in college.

However, time had taken its toll on everyone. No matter how deeply they had been in love with one

another, time had erased it all. Besides, Yolanda had abandoned him to pursue her dreams. He had

hated her guts once, but he had gotten over it and moved on. Joey was the woman that he loved right

now.

Joey had mended his broken heart and now he was very happy.

“Yolanda, there’s no point in dwelling on the past. I’ve a girlfriend and we love each other very much.”

Allen paused for a second and told her the truth frankly. He was a devoted boyfriend and he would

never do anything to hurt Joey.

Yolanda was stunned. She hadn’t expected Allen to reject her so flatly. She had been very confident

when she decided to make the call. She had even imagined that he would be thrilled to hear the news

of her return and ask to see her immediately. But his reaction was completely out of her expectation.

Yolanda had always been a very proud girl, but her pride was gone now. She was deeply resentful and

jealous of Joey. But she knew she couldn’t show the slightest bit of negative emotions right now. She

had to take it down a notch. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

“Allen, are you still mad at me for ignoring your advice and going to study abroad alone four years ago?

Allen, don’t be mad at me anymore. Now I’m back, please don’t push me away. I know you still have

feelings for me, and I’ve missed you all the time. Allen, why don’t we start over?”

Allen closed his eyes. He thought he should put it more clearly with her, because indecision would

invariably lead to trouble.

In the meantime, Joey went up to the rooftop alone. She was surprised to find Martha here in the bright

moonlight.

Martha was leaning against the balcony and looking up at the night sky.

She was wearing a white slip nightgown and a pair of beautiful Burgundy heels. Apart from lipstick, she

wore no makeup. Her blazing red lips looked weirdly beautiful under the moonlight.

She took a puff on the cigarette in her right hand in a way that was ineffably elegant and…lonely.

Joey was about to say hello to her when Lawrence suddenly emerged from the roof stairs opposite.

Joey was intimidated by her former boss. She subconsciously took two steps to the left and hid herself

behind a large high potted tree nearby.

Lawrence’s face was handsome and cold in the moonlight. He approached Martha, snatched the

cigarette from her lips and threw it away.

“Why did you text me and ask me to come up to the roof?”

Lawrence frowned. He didn't like smoking for a girl.

Martha looked up and stared at him. She smiled and looked very charming, “You ignored me every

time I asked you to see me on the roof. Why are you here today? Let me guess, you were upset

because my mother talked about marriage at the dinner. Am I right?”
