Chapter 182 A Way With Words

Ashlyn felt awkward, but she still bit the bullet and tried to convince Alexander. “We grew up together, Alexander. Even if we can’t be lovers, we can still be friends, right?”

Alexander replied coldly, “Sorry, but I beg to differ.”

With that, Alexander stood up. He had lost the mood for breakfast, so he signaled for the waiter. “Please put these in takeaway containers. Thank you.”

After completing his task, the waiter passed the containers to Alexander. “Here you are, mister.”

Alexander took the containers and left, for he had no intention of talking to Ashlyn. The lady, however, didn’t give up and ran after him. “Alexander, I was foolish and did horrible things. I’m sorry, and I’ve already repented! Please, can you forget the past and pretend that it never happened? Can we still be friends like before?”

Alexander was growing more irritated by the second. “Are you out of your mind? You’d better see a doctor and get your delusional tendencies checked.”

Instantly, Ashlyn went pale in the face. Alexander’s words had dragged her harshly out of her ideal state. She thought that if they reached an understanding, they could pretend that the past never happened, then everything would go back to how they were before. However, she totally forgot how filthy her actions were, and she should be embarrassed to approach Alexander out of nowhere.

“I’m sorry, I—”

Alexander didn’t have time for her explanations, so he simply got into his car and drove away.

Left behind, Ashlyn was frustrated. Why? Dang it! I don’t get how things turned out this way. We weren’t like this before. He used to be nice and polite to me, though I need to admit that we weren’t particularly close. But hey, he was still alright. His attitude now, though?! Hmph!
