"I saw you asleep when I came in, so I didn't want to wake you up."
I didn't answer him. I took out the necklace from the cabinet and handed it to him without saying a word.
"Give it to her."
Charles was stunned at first, but then he snorted.
"In the past, if I gave your things to Flora, I was afraid that you would do everything to stop me. Why did you suddenly become so sensible today? What are you thinking about?"
I was weak, but I showed him a n indifferent expression on my face.
"Do you think I have the strength or the mind to play tricks on you in my current state?"
Charles glared at me as if I was in an unreasonable manner.
He snatched the necklace from my hand and walked out.
"That's for the best. If you were half as considerate and sensible as Flora, we wouldn't have quarreled every day."
With a bang of the door, Charles left.
He went to look for his childhood sweetheart to please her.
What a joke. He was like me in front of Flora.
He was like a puppy that tried its best to make its beloved happy every day.
I, Who never drank, fell asleep again after getting drunk.
The next morning, a series of urgent ringtone woke me up.
I looked at the number. It was my boss, Aidan.
