Chapter 2 No.2

It was already midnight when Rylan came back.

He didn't expect that I was still awake.

He took off his coat and walked over. When he saw the cake thrown into the trash can, he was stunned for a moment.

It seemed that he finally remembered what day it was today. He rubbed between his eyebrows, but he didn't feel guilty at all. He was so annoyed.

"What's wrong with you, Stella? I've told you that I'm busy recently and I don't have time to celebrate such a boring day with you."

Boring day?

What was wrong with me?

But I didn't say anything, did I?

I looked up at Rylan. Compared to five years ago, he now carried a greater sense of reserve and nobility.

Time seemed to treat him specially, without leaving any trace on his face. He was still so handsome.

But when did he become less concerned about me?

It seemed to be the night two months ago.

That night, we watched a movie together and ate our favorite food. We laughed loudly as if we just got married.

At night, when we were kissing on bed, his phone suddenly lit up.

He glanced at it casually and then he was stunned. He lost his interest and walked out of the bedroom with his mobile phone.

That night, he sat quietly in front of the window and didn't sleep all night.

The second day, after he washed his face and rinsed his mouth, he sprayed perfume for the first time. It was the smell I didn't like, but he said he liked it.

At that time, I just thought that it might be the customer who liked it.

Now I thought that what he had meant was Zoe liked it.

From that day on, he came back late and didn't pay much attention to me.

Although we lived together, we had only seen each other for a few times.

Today, he even forgot my birthday and our wedding anniversary.

I had thought that he was really busy in the company, but I didn't expect that he was with another woman.

I sighed helplessly and pointed at the medicine on the table.

"Don't forget to take the medicine."

When I turned around, I couldn't help but remind him, "You can't drink alcohol. You'd better quit it."

I didn't know when he started drinking.

I only remembered that he had promised me that he would take good care of his body for me. He said that he would live well and accompany me for a lifetime.

But now, he was full of the smell of alcohol. Even though I didn't get close to him, I had smelled it.

Rylan's face darkened instantly.

He raised his arms and sniffed. It seemed that he had thought of something, and a trace of guilt flashed through his eyes.

"You don't have to wait for me in the future. You can go to bed early."

I stopped and didn't turn around. I just nodded.

After answering a phone call, Rylan left without telling me. He was so strange to me, as if we were just roommates in a rented apartment.
