Sophia was startled. Although she wasn’t thirsty, she was still surprised that Isabelle stopped her.
Upon finishing her words impassively, Isabelle lowered her head and continued eating her food.
John shot Isabelle a look as his gaze turned from cold to indifferent.
When the meal was over, certainly John wouldn’t let Isabelle pay the bill. After making an excuse that
he needed to use the toilet, he left the room and headed to the cashier counter. Just when he was
paying the bill, Isabelle appeared from behind as she called out to him and said, “I knew you were
coming here to pay the bill.”
John grunted and fell silent.
In fact, Isabelle wasn’t here to snatch the bill from him, as the meal wasn’t expensive. When the bill
was paid, Isabelle stared at him and said, “Can we have a talk? I promise this is the last time I’d bother
you.”
With a frown, John agreed to it. He really hoped it was the last time, for he didn’t want Isabelle to keep
pestering him. As a resolute man, he had made his stance clear, and he hoped Isabelle would forget
him and move on as well. It’s really pointless if this goes on forever.
Standing in the doorway, Isabelle flashed a smile at him. “You seem to love Sophia very much.”
John let out a mirthless laugh. “I don’t just seem to love her.” I love her with all my heart.
With a helpless expression, Isabelle continued, “John, I love you, and I know you’re well aware of it. I
also know that you don’t love me back.” Suddenly, she laughed in self-mockery. “You have never loved
me before, right?”
With a dispassionate expression, John turned to look at her.
Isabelle smiled. “Oh God, this question sounds like an insult to myself.” Tipping her head back, she
exhaled slowly. “But I wouldn’t be resigned if I never asked this question. I just thought that maybe
you’d loved me a little—”
“No,” John answered in a firm manner; his expression remained the same.
Startled, Isabelle locked her eyes with him.
John went on, “I have never loved you before. Even if Sophia never came into my life, I wouldn’t have
any feelings for you. At that time, I agreed to the engagement because I just thought that we’d be a
good match since our families were equally wealthy, but I wasn’t into you one bit.”
With her lips parted for a while, Isabelle grunted.
Gazing at the heavy traffic, John continued, “I was really sorry that I had to cancel our engagement, but
other than that, I didn’t feel regretful or sorrowful.”
Isabelle pressed her lips together for a moment and said, “You didn’t love Sophia initially, right? But
after you were married, you slowly fell in love with her. If she never existed, we’d have gone down the
same path.”
John snorted, even though he didn’t mean to be derisive. Thinking of something, he said, “If I had fallen
in love with her after we got married, we wouldn’t have divorced.”
When they were still married, Sophia was the perfect wife as she took good care of him. But at that
time, he was disdainful of her. It was until he lost her that he realized that he had fallen in love with her.
That realization dawned on him too late that he had to work extra hard to win back her heart.
With her gaze lowered, Isabelle appeared upset. “I’m just not resigned. I’d always thought that without
Sophia, perhaps we’d have turned out differently.”
John frowned. Maybe things would really have turned out differently, but nobody can be sure.
Then, John turned to her. “Even if we got together in the past, I wouldn’t have been able to give you the
life you desired. I don’t love you. Do you get it?”
