Chapter 298 Celebration Banquet

Kelvin rubbed his temples. "If I'm not working, what else am I supposed to do with all that time? Just sit around? Dwell on her?"

Work was his distraction, his way to fill the void.

Otherwise, the moment he had free time, he would start missing Penelope.

That heart-wrenching pain, that love etched into his bones, consumed Kelvin every night.

Looking back, Kelvin didn't even know how he made it through the past four years. Every day felt so long.

Yet he managed to get through it alone.

"Alright," Timothy shrugged, knowing about his heartbreak and changed the subject. "I'm here to ask if you're coming to the celebration party tonight?"

"No."

"You refuse so decisively?"

Kelvin replied, "I have an international meeting tonight."

"It won't take long. Come over after your meeting," Timothy said, "The company has achieved such great financial results because of you. You have to be there."

Kelvin wanted to say something, but Timothy stood up. "It's settled then. I'll wait for you. You should get out more and interact with people; it's good for your mental and physical health."

He pursed his lips, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a couple of puffs.

In the bluish-white smoke, Kelvin's outline gradually blurred.

"Adoring Cupid" has grown significantly, becoming the top jewelry brand in the country.

He was holding up her career for her.

But why, in these four years, had she never appeared in his dreams?

Not even once.

Did she really hate him that much?

She wouldn't even let him dream of her!

Kelvin desperately wanted to see her, even if just in a dream.
