Chapter 3 Heartbreaking Memories

The night wind made the rose bushes on the balcony tremble slightly, and the full moonlight of mid-month made the man's silhouette appear on the wall.

Dylan shook the glass of wine in his hand. He doesn't like jubilant parties or bustling restaurants, he just wants to be alone in the quiet night and gnaw away his pain.

His feelings for that girl lasted for more than twenty years. He doesn't know when he started loving her, perhaps the moment he saw the chubby baby walking in the yard and picking all the white chrysanthemums.

That adorable chubby face made him unable to be angry so he ran next to the little girl and took the flower petals from her hand and threw them away for fear that she would put them in her mouth to chew and swallow.

Dylan was satisfied with that love under the same roof. He was convinced that Nancy would belong to him forever until the day she suddenly said goodbye.

The day she left, he went crazy and disregarded his dignity and self-respect to hold on to her. Because he was chasing the taxi carrying her, he had a terrible accident, his face was completely disfigured and his ribs were broken several times.

After spending two long years on the operating table, the day the bandages were removed, he looked at himself in the mirror and thought he was a stranger.

At that moment, he hated that girl so much and he wanted to see her again to make her pay everything, the price for betraying his sincerity.

He lifted his wine glass into the air and smiled bitterly.

"Nancy Pelosi, congrats on our reunion."

After speaking, he drank the glass of wine in one gulp. Tonight will continue to be a sleepless night for him, this feeling of being only half-drunk makes it difficult for him to sleep peacefully.

The darkness gradually dissipated and the sunlight slowly appeared on the sea. Nancy wandered on the deserted beach, enjoying looking at the round sand balls made by sand crabs.

She bent down and gently touched them with her fingers, and they immediately shattered.

A love affair that is not blessed by relatives will break up, which she already knows, but her heart is still sad.

She went to sit on the rock and looked out at the horizon. The winter wind gently caressed her chubby face.

From a distance, Lyle slowly walked closer to her. He still remembers two years ago, when he went to province D, he met her.

To him, Nancy is an interesting, enthusiastic, strong, and decisive person at work but stupid in everyday life.

At that time, she took on the task of guiding the terrain for the film crew. However, when he dropped her off on the main road to catch the bus, she was completely unable to determine whether the up or down bus was the right way to her house.

During one of their conversations, Lyle accidentally talked about his plan to adapt online literary works into movies. The work he most wanted to work on was Bright Moonlight by writer Song, but he couldn't contact that writer.

And after only a few days when he returned to the city, Nancy called to tell him that Song agreed to allow her work to be adapted but on the condition that Nancy directly edit it.

A year later, the film was released, bringing resounding success, bringing the names of actress Rosalind of SN Group and actor Daniel of Global Group to the ranks of stars.

"Aren't you cold?" Lyle asked.

"Just a bit." She replied softly.

"Today we go up the mountain to choose a few more locations and we're done."

"Yes, brother."

At exactly eight thirty minutes, the three people quickly moved up the mountain to find the next location.

The film director for this movie Under the Abyss is Kent, a quite young, vibrant, and extremely enthusiastic film director.

Yesterday, he only chose scenes on the beach but he acted like it was very serious, criticizing this beach for being deserted, that beach being so crowded, and other beaches not being beautiful.

He said that art is a deceitful moonlight, but it cannot be too deceitful. Nancy and Lyle also had to give in to him.

It was late afternoon when they finished walking around the mountain, so they stopped next to a stream. The sound of the wind rushing through the trees creates a wild sound.

Lyle held the camera in his hand and signaled Nancy to pose beautifully so he could take a photo of her.

"You have to stand like this, back foot, front foot, strike, strike." Kent said while modeling for her to see.

"I'm not wearing ancient clothes, how can I stand like that? I doubt your ability as a director." Nancy glared.

I just want you to have a beautiful set of photos, rest assured, under Mr. Lyle's lens, you will look beautiful no matter what you do.

Lyle could only burst into laughter when he heard the conversation. On a business trip two years ago, Kent was also present, so Nancy and him were quite friendly.

One is twenty-eight years old and the other is thirty years old, but every time they see each other, they argue.

When they returned to the hotel and prepared to go to dinner, the clock hands were gradually moving toward seven o'clock in the evening.

At the same time, Dylan was also on his way from the city to province C. He feverishly looked to both sides of the road. The unexpected meeting lasted from morning to noon but still failed to reach an agreement and continued into the afternoon, causing Ella to wait for him until her neck grew longer.

As soon as the car stopped in front of the luxury restaurant, Dylan quickly entered and looked around. He saw Ella still waiting for him in her business attire, her eyes were like two bullets.

"Miss Ella, I'm so sorry." Dylan bowed his head and said.

"I wait longer for you than for my lover." Ella replied.

"Sorry, miss."

"Have you had dinner yet?"

"Not yet."

Initially, Ella planned to wait until she met Dylan, then she would scold the arrogant chairman and then cut off her relationship with him and stop cooperating.

But when she saw him like this, she felt pitiful. His appearance was very haggard after a stressful day at work and sitting in the car for several hours.

"Let's go, behind this restaurant is the sea, you will feel less tired when you go there."

Ella said and quickly went ahead. Dylan also quickly followed her.

After Paul parked the car, he quickly ran into the restaurant. He looks even more pathetic than his boss.

As soon as the meeting ended, he was hungry, but because he didn't want to make his boss late for work, he tried to endure it.

His position is truly miserable, not as happy as everyone thinks, the president's assistant and driver.

He saw that Dylan used manpower very skillfully. In Global Group, except for normal employees, all senior personnel must hold concurrent duties.

Stephen only holds two positions but complains all day long, while Lyle holds the position of deputy general director and communications director, managing entertainment, fashion, and photography.

Even though Paul is Dylan's assistant, he still admires Lyle very much. In his heart, Lyle is like having seventy-two magical transformations.

"Hello Miss Ella, my name is Paul, I'm Mr. Dylan's assistant. It was me who contacted you yesterday." Paul tried to appear cheerful and introduced himself.

"Hello, I'm here both noon and afternoon." Ella also tried to smile.

"I'm sorry for not informing you sooner, and causing you to wait." He bowed his head to show remorse.

Dylan's appearance made Ella feel pitiful, but Paul's appearance made her feel funny. His eyes were like a lost dog. It seemed like he was so hungry that he was dizzy.

The night sea breeze blew in, carrying salty air, and Dylan felt his hair become sticky.

Paul kept focusing on eating. When the two people next to him raised their glasses of wine, he was busy putting meat in his mouth and when he picked up the glass of wine, everyone had already put their glasses down.
