Chapter 64:1 Regret It

Julian Jennings looked shocked,

"That happened? How come I didn't know?

"Know what? You don't know anything!" Mrs. Ashley snapped.

Julian turned, seeing Sonya, and urgently asked, "Is what Alex Ge said true?"

Sonya sighed. She didn't want to talk about the past, especially what she'd done for Julian Jennings. Now, it just made her feel foolish.

"It's over," she said flatly.

She and Mrs. Ashley continued inside, but Julian stopped them.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked, frowning,

Sonya took a deep breath. "Do you really want to know?"

"Yes, I do."

Sonya nodded. "Okay, I'll tell you."

She walked toward the garden to a bench. As she sat, memories flooded back, and she frowned.

"Mr. Alex agreed to invest, but his shareholders thought the project was too risky and rejected it at the meeting. He set up a dinner to let you explain the project's advantages. Naturally, there was a lot of drinking. But you ended up in the hospital with gastritis from excessive drinking. You'd been drinking heavily because you'd proposed to Seraphina West at her birthday party, and she'd said no."

Sonya chuckled, remembering her younger self.

"For eight years, you proposed to Seraphina West every year, got rejected every year, and got completely drunk. What could I do? I couldn't let Mr. Alex down, right? So I went to that dinner in your place. Downing glass after glass of Whisky... I felt awful; I'd far exceeded my limit, but they still hadn't decided, so I kept drinking. I thought, if I drink myself to death, I'll be too ashamed to face even the Yama King."
