You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 84

"What do you want to drink?" Edric asked her gently. "Blue Mountain or cappuccino?"

Lily only liked to drink caffe mocha. Every time she met Edric, she would order it. Yet, Edric was still unaware of her preferred drinks. Glumly, she said, "Mocha."

Edric ordered the coffee for her, and he ordered a cup of Blue Mountain for himself. Seeing that he had the same taste as Irene, Lily was irked; but instead, she put on a concern mask. "Edric, you seem to have lost a lot of weight." "Really?" Edric smiled faintly. When the waiter brought the coffee, Lily picked up the cup and took a sip. Edric remained silent, watching her motionlessly. After Lily put down the cup, he said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I can't get engaged to you." Lily knew he wouldn't deliver good news, but it never crossed her mind that Edric would cancel the engagement just like that.

One of the reasons Lily blamed Irene for her miscarriage was that she wanted to make Edric feel guilty for his whole life.

She would have a shot as long as Edric was haunted by his own guilt. But she didn't expect that even his guilt wouldn't stand a chance against Irene.

Lily was crestfallen. The dejected look on her face was genuine. "Have you thought about it thoroughly?"

"Yes, I've thought it over." Edric felt that he was a little cruel. Lily was innocent. From the beginning, it was Deborah who let her get involved in the relationship between Irene and him.

Edric had always felt sorry for her. Therefore, he had tried his best to make up for Lily by fulfilling every single wish of her in the last three years, as long as they could be bought with money. "I'm sorry, Lily. I can't leave her alone."

"I know. When Irene returned, I already knew it. I don't blame you." Lily took a deep breath and forced a smile. "Will you marry her again?"

"I'll fight for it. After all, I've wronged her."

"Try your best to win her back. She is a good person worthy of your love. If you need me, I will help you at any time."

Edric didn't expect that Lily would be so forgiving, which made him feel even more guilty. "If you need anything, you can come to me. I will never turn you away."

"I don't need anything. Your happiness is my greatest wish. I wish you and Irene a happy life." After saying this, Lily covered her face and ran out of the cafe. Looking at her staggering figure, Edric sat in the cafe for a while before he got up and left.

After leaving the cafe, Lily went straight home and called for Deborah when she entered the door. "Mom, Edric broke up with me. He is going to be with Irene."

"He broke up with you for that b*tch. He is really heartless!" Deborah scolded fiercely.

Irene was indeed fortunate. Compared to her, Deborah and Lily had done everything they could but none of their plans worked. It was indeed an unlucky turn of events for them. Deborah was infuriated. "This b*tch is a jinx. D*mn it!"

Lily pulled a long face. "Mom, I don't want to break up with Edric. Think of a solution. I don't want to live anymore if Irene and Edric are remarried."

"What are you panicking about? You're so useless." Deborah glared at Lily. "You've already admitted defeat before you even make a strike!" "What else can we do now?"

"Let me think about it!" Deborah was flustered. She kept pacing back and forth in the room. After a while, her eyes lit up as a vicious idea formed in her mind.

Irene leaned against the hospital bed, worried about her future. The door of the ward was pushed open. It was David who had appeared in the ward. She was surprised to see David. Irene looked behind him but did not see Jordan. She did not know whether she should be disappointed or relieved. David walked up to her and asked, "How do you feel?"

"Not bad."
