Contracted Bride Is Trapped By Her Husband - Chapter 201
Chapter 201: Leave The Past Behind
Susan walked out of the door of the Brown family. She seemed to have understood something from Madam Brown’s attitude and Aren’s.
Time really seemed to be able to change a lot. At least, it could change love.
It could make Aren fall in love with Jocelyn and forget Diana.
Even though he knew that Jocelyn cheated on him, he still chose to forget her.
Was there really a chance for Diana now?
Susan tightened her grip on the phone and shook her head. She already knew the answer.
Sitting in the car, Susan hesitated for a while before calling Diana.
After the phone rang twice, it was picked up. However, unlike usual, Susan did not speak first, but instead she fell into silence.
Although she had just decided to tell Diana the truth, the moment the call was picked up, she realized how difficult it was to speak the truth.
“Diana, I…”
Before Susan could think of what to say, a chuckle came from the other end of the phone, and then Diana said.
“I’ve spent the past few days locked in my room thinking about many things. I think I was wrong in the past. I believed that Aren would always be there waiting for me and love love me the way he did before.”
“But… Why should he? He doesn’t have this responsibility or obligation. He has the right to pursue his own happiness.”
“It’s true that we were in love, but it was in the past. When I left him, I broke his heart. I have no right to ask him to continue loving me. ”
“But I don’t think I can bless him without a grudge, so I plan to go to Italy. Maybe leaving here will heal my heart, ”
Susan could hear disappointment and relief in Diana’s voice. She sounded like a feather that was fluttering in the wind after shaking off a burden weighing more than ten pounds.
Diana, who was never talkative, seemed to have endless things to say today. She looked like she wanted to say everything that she had not said before.
“I don’t think I’ve told you how lucky I am to have a friend like you. I’ve always had a bad temper. Thank you for always tolerating my willfulness and selfishness. Thank you for always caring and loving me. You’re my best, most loyal, and sincere friend.”
Diana’s words were like a valve that completely opened up Susan’s outlet.
Normally, Susan would already be happy if she could get a word of thanks from Diana. Now that she was praised by Diana, Susan felt like she had eaten a whole cake, feeling sweet.
“I’m glad to hear that. But since we’re good friends, I can’t let you go to Italy alone. I want to be with you this time.”
Susan wiped her tears and spoke with a hoarse voice.
“It would be great if you were willing to accompany me. I wonder if you are free now. Maybe you can come to my house now and we can plan our trip.”
“Of course I am. Wait for me.”
With that, Susan started the car and rushed towards her house.
Susan did not close the car window. The breeze that was hitting Susan on the face made her feel much better.
At home, Diana, who was waiting for Susan, stopped being sad. She dressed up again and cut her waist-length hair.
Now, her hair only reached her shoulders, and a tinge of healthy glow slowly appeared on her thin face.
The butler brought Diana her afternoon tea. Knowing that Diana was going to leave, the butler asked, “Miss, aren’t you going to stay in New York for a while longer? You just came back.”
“No, I think it’s better to leave than stay.”
Seeing the rare radiant smile on Diana’s face, the butler did not ask her to stay. After placing the tea and pastries on the table, he left, leaving Diana alone.
On the other side, from the morning, Maria had been carefully choosing her dress.
She had been searching everywhere in the fully-packed wardrobe, but she still could not find a dress that satisfied her.
“Ahhh, these clothes are not what I want. I need something else, Mother!”
“Mother, get me a designer!!!”
