Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap by Hannah Baker

Chapter 994

Joan took the teapot and poured two cups of tea. He put one cup of tea in front of Stanford and took a sip of tea from the other one in his hand. When he put down the cup, he spoke, "When I was eight, my grandpa gave me a simulated pistol. I liked it very much. It became my favourite toy, but later I accidentally lost it and couldn't find it. Until one day, I saw another child holding it and taking it as his favourite toy too. From that moment onwards, I knew I’ve lost it, and it would never come back. Knowing it won’t come back anymore, I learned to let go."

He looked up at Stanford. "Do you think I should ask the child to give it back or let it go?"

Stanford looked indifferent. "If it were me, I would be more willing to ask the guy who does it prefer."

"But I think since I’ve lost it, I’m no longer eligible to have it. What do you think?"

Joan leaned over. "Why did I lose it? It's because I couldn't protect it, so it left me."

"Then how can you be sure that the person who found it won't lose it?" Stanford looked at him. "Mr. Morton, can I ask you a question?"

"Sure."

"How long did you own that gun?"

"I had it from eight to twelve, so it’s four years."

"Four years? If the gun has a soul and feelings, how long do you think it will take for it to forget its former owner when it’s with the new owner?" Stanford looked at Joan. "Do you know how many years I have known my ex-wife?"

Before Joan asked, he said, "I was nine the first time I saw her."

He didn't forget the kind little girl he had met once.
