The next morning, Emma stood by the window and waved to Carissa.
“Carie, Carie, come and see if that’s Melvin, right?”
Carissa paused her toothbrushing motion, clenched the toothbrush, and walked to the window to
look down.
At a glance, I saw Melvin standing straight downstairs.
Even though she knew he couldn’t see her, Carissa suddenly felt a bit shy for some unknown
reason.
Especially Emma was standing aside, pursing her lips and making comments.
“Tsk tsk tsk, what a devoted fool you are. Running eagerly to find your girlfriend so early in the morning. Carie, how did you train him? You must teach me one day, haha!”
As soon as these words were spoken, Carissa’s face turned completely red, and she quickly changed the subject.
“Emma, why don’t you join us for breakfast later? After eating, we can head straight to work!”
Emma picked up a bag of bread from the table and took a big bite angrily.
“I didn’t want to be a third wheel, you two go ahead and eat, I have something to take care of later!”
Upon hearing this, Carissa had no choice but to give up.
She hurriedly finished washing up and went downstairs, running up to Melvin.
“Why did you come so early today?”
Melvin stared at her intently.
“I woke up early, and since I had nothing to do, I came to find you…‘
In fact, he did not sleep all night last night.
It’s not that he wasn’t sleepy, but he dared not sleep. He was afraid that he would wake up and find
that all of this was an illusion.
So, before dawn, he ran downstairs and waited.
I just wanted to see Carissa earlier, to confirm that all of this was true.
After having breakfast, Melvin dropped Carissa off at the company downstairs.
ll her good mood today came to an abrupt end when she encountered a man at the entrance of the
company.

“Hello, Ms. Solomon. My name is Tristen Ramos, and I am Warren’s friend. He had an accident, and I wanted to ask you to go to the hospital and see him. After all, you have been together for so many years. You can’t be so heartless, right?”
Tristen, although he spoke politely.
But looking at his appearance, it is likely that if she didn’t go to the hospital today, he wouldn’t have
left either.
N
Her actions had already affected the studio before.
Now, she only wanted to completely resolve this matter.
“Okay, I went to the hospital with you.”
Tristen breathed a sigh of relief at the words.
He thought that Carissa was so determined to break up.
Now it seems that she may have already regretted it in her heart, but she was just concerned about saving face and waiting for an opportunity to return to her brother’s side.
On the way, he incessantly brainwashed her.
“Two people always argue and make a fuss when they are together. What obstacle can’t be overcome? Why do they have to end up so estranged?”
“It wasn’t easy for you to be together for so many years, so cherish this relationship!”
***
Such words were spoken all the way.
Without exception, everyone wanted to persuade her to reconcile with Warren.
Carissa, on the other hand, remained silent throughout, silently enjoying the view outside the
window.
When the two of them entered the ward, Warren was lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
The moment he saw Carissa, a glimmer suddenly appeared in his eyes.
“Carie, I knew all along that you were lying to me before. How could you possibly fall in love with someone else? Once I recover from my injury, let’s go back and get married, okay? I will treat you
well from now on…”
“1
The next second, Carissa shattered his illusion.
When did I ever say I wanted to marry you? Warren, if I remember correctly, you haven’t even finalized your divorce with Madilyn yet. I agreed to come here today just to tell you to stop
2/5
harassing me in the future. I have moved on and I don’t want anything to do with you anymore.”
Without hesitation, she turned around and wanted to leave, leaving behind these words.
Warren’s friends quickly stepped forward to stop her when they saw the situation.
“Although Warren obtained a marriage certificate with Madilyn, he never actually cheated on you. Why do you insist on clinging to this and being so nitpicky?”
“Yeah, moreover, he lost his job just to clear your name, and he even had a car accident and almost lost his life. We should have some conscience as human beings, right? Let’s just let go of the past
and forget about those things!”
Carissa felt the term “a nest of vipers” for the first time in such a genuine way.
She seemed to suddenly understand why Warren, after doing those absurd things, could still
confidently ask for her forgiveness.
Because these people didn’t think it was a big deal at all.
Since reasoning doesn’t work, she might as well be polite to them.
“I could promise you, but I have one request…”
Upon hearing these words, Warren’s eyes turned red with excitement, and he couldn’t wait to speak
- up.
“As long as you were willing to marry me, I would do anything.”
Carissa sneered, curling the corners of her mouth.
“Sure, then you can come back when I get remarried, and maybe I will consider you at that time.”
As soon as the words fell, before Warren could even speak, the faces of the other men changed.
“Are you crazy? Asking Warren to be your scapegoat? How can you have the audacity to say such
shameless words?”
“Take the opportunity and step down quickly, don’t end up causing an irreparable mess, and
ultimately embarrassing yourself!”
“Let it go, Warren. I’ll introduce you to someone new, so that she can regret it!”
Originally, they also knew that saying such things was shameless.
But why is it that when it comes to Warren, they feel entitled to ask for her forgiveness?
Garissa sneered coldly and turned away without hesitation.
Before she even reached the door, Warren’s voice suddenly became hoarse from behind her.
