Daisie was stunned for a moment but still accepted his congratulations with a smile. “Thank you.”
“Daisie, I’m very sorry about everything that happened in the past.” Zephir’s eyes moved. “I must have let you down after all these years, whether it’s back then or now. I never knew what I wanted all this while and what I have done while trying to find out what it was.”
Daisie stared at him for a while. “Zephir, everything that happened is in the past now. You can still choose now, can’t you?”
He paused for a long time, then gave off a faint smile. “Yeah, you’re right. However, many things have changed, and there’s no turning back now.”
He seemed to be connoting something.
Daisie thought of someone. “Is it Leah?”
He did not respond to her question.
“Zephir, I hope you’ll get to live a good life. Even though some things have changed, life still goes on. Whether it’s you or Leah, I truly hope that you both can be well and find your own happiness in life.” Zephir raised his gaze and stared at her. His lips then moved slowly. “Thank you.”
She chuckled and added, “Actually, sometimes I miss those days when we were still studying back in school, you, Leah, and I, and of course, Coleman and Wayne. That will always be one of the happiest times in my life.”
Zephir pursed his lips and said after a long pause, “Daisie, I’ve been thinking about it a lot recently. It’s really time to let go of some things.”
She was startled.
He lowered his gaze. “I’ve always stayed closely attached to an illusory and beautiful bubble, and I was reluctant to break it no matter what happened. Later, I realized that all those attachments were only my one-sided, wishful thinking. It’s time to bid my past self goodbye.”
Daisie gave off a smile.
After saying goodbye to Zephir, she got back in the car.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Nollace squinted. “What did he say to flirt with you?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Daisie looked at him and said with a grin, “He said a lot.”
He frowned.
Daisie leaned closer to him and whispered, “There’s no need for you to be wary of him anymore. You’ll have no love rival from now onward.”
Nollace laughed out loud, leaned forward, and gave her a peck on the forehead. “I don’t think anyone in this world would have the ability to be my love rival.”
‘Because she’s already mine.’
Meanwhile…
James was forced by his father to go on a blind date. He leaned into the back of the couch and crossed his legs. “Father, you’re asking me, an A-tier actor, to go on a blind date? Are you looking down on me?”
Looking at his flippant appearance and attitude, Jefferson angrily threw the newspaper aside. “You should
take the interrogative tone out of the sentence. I can assure you that I’m indeed looking down on you. Can you name me a few A-tier artists doing as badly as you? You don’t even have a girlfriend at this age. You keep on saying that you’re a star. You’re definitely embarrassing and dragging the whole industry down with you.”
James was rendered speechless.
“I’ll give you another two years. If you’re still not married after two years, let alone the Tells Group, I’d rather Edamame inherit everything that I’ll be leaving behind. I won’t leave you a single cent!”
The white Samoyed laying languidly next to James’ feet, which was named after the edamame beans,
barked.
James dragged Edamame to his side and patted it. “Edamame, your father said that he’ll leave everything to you. You’ll become a filthy rich dog in the future. I think I’ll have to stick to you for the rest of my life.”
Jefferson was so exasperated that he did not want to talk to his son anymore.
“Okay, it’s just a blind date, isn’t it? I’ll go.”
James did not plan to really piss off his father.
Jefferson was stunned for a split second. “Are you serious?”
James picked his ear. “I’ll make myself clear first, I’ll only attend the blind date if the girl is my cup of tea, and apart from being good-looking, she has to also be mature, kind, and self-reliant. I don’t want a girl who will cry about every matter.
“I’m an actor, so I’ll most probably be away for a few months every time I get a new role. So, if the girl is someone very clingy, I don’t think it’ll be possible for me to live with her.”
