Chapter 483: Regret of the Past

At the arranged meeting spot, Susan noticed that Marcos's face had become pale and weary, a shadow of his once confident self. The gloom in his eyes was unmistakable.

"Marcos, I'm sorry I'm late. The road was a bit congested," Susan explained.

"It's fine. I just got here, too. I ordered the dishes you used to like. Take a look and let me know if there's anything else you'd like to add," Marcos said, his somber expression softening.

Susan glanced at the menu. The dishes were indeed all her favorites. Memories of her childhood surfaced-how she used to beg Marcos to take her to eat these very meals, and how he always indulged her every whim.

"What are you thinking about?" Marcos asked, noticing the faint smile on her lips.

"Nothing," Susan replied, her tone nostalgic. "I was just thinking about how, when I was little, I always made you buy me ice cream and candy."

"Yeah," Marcos chuckled, his mood lightening. "You were such a little troublemaker. Every time you stormed out of the house, you'd head straight to the park. Two ice creams were all it took to cheer you up and bring you back home."

The innocence of childhood was the happiest time of life. Back then, even the deepest sadness could melt away with two simple ice creams.

Susan stared at the menu in her hands, and tears began to fall silently. She had loved Hayden for so many years. She remembered every detail about him-his favorite clothing styles, his preferred colors, the foods he liked and disliked, the brand of his watch, the scent of his cologne.

But what did he know about her? After all these years, he still didn't know her favorite foods. Every time he ordered dishes, they were always Aurora's favorites.

When someone truly loves another, they remember every little detail about them. No matter how much time passes, those memories remain vivid.

But was it worth doing so much for a man who didn't love her back?
