Chapter 210 Treat Yourself Well
Alwyn and Peyton talked about recent events. Peyton had always felt guilty towards Alwyn because she had banished him based on a single comment from Nolan.
Alwyn’s voice remained as gentle as ever. He is currently studying abroad and has fully adapted to the new environment.
He recently also found a girlfriend with a very good personality. In a few years, he will be able to return to his home country to take over the position of the dean, so this further education is not a bad thing.
He arranged a stomach examination for Peyton tomorrow.
“Peyton, you were able to come out and willing to embrace life again, I was truly happy for you.”
“Alwyn, I will live on well. Whether it’s a day or a month, I will embrace tomorrow with hope,”
A sweet and delicate female voice came from the other end of the phone, “Alwyn, I messed up again just now.”
Peyton ended the call with a smile, “Let’s go, someone needs your help”
In the evening, she rarely relaxed and took a bath.
She poured herself half a glass of red wine, stood by the terrace, listened to the sea breeze, and raised her glass.
She shouted towards the sea, “Peyton, you must live well!“.
The next morning, Peyton took a day off and changed into a simple white dress. She went to visit their alma mater with Kadence.
Just a few years passed, the surroundings of the school have changed a lot, with the addition of some shops and buildings.
The morning breeze tousled the students‘ hair and the newly sprouted
green
leaves. Birds flew across the blue sky above their heads.
The donut shop on the street just opened for business, and the air was filled with the scent of freshly baked bread.
The sunlight shone on Peyton’s beautiful face. The natural beauty gave her the courage to love this cruel world once again.
Kadence kept talking incessantly about past anecdotes in her ear, occasionally mentioning Ruben, and a hint of disappointment could still be detected in Kadence’s tone.
Peyton patted Kadence’s shoulder, “Kadence.”
Kadence quickly put on a smile and said, “Don’t worry, I wasn’t as fragile as you thought. During this period, I was busy adapting to the new company, getting along with new colleagues, and improving myself.”
“I originally thought I would be very sad, but in reality, the sadness had long been overwhelmed by the trivial matters of life. There were some things that I thought I would never forget, but gradually, I started to forget them.”
Kadence took Peyton’s hand and said, “Peytie, I believed that you could be just like me. Give yourself some time. You deserve the best in the world.”
“I believed what you said.”
Peyton walked to the flower shop and bought two bouquets of flowers. She kept one bouquet for herself and handed the other bouquet to Kadence. The two vibrant bouquets collided in the air.
“To our beautiful life.”
Under Alwyn’s arrangement, Peyton went to the hospital for a follow- up examination. Afterwards, she returned home and placed the flowers in a vase.
She smiled at the beautiful bouquet of flowers.
From now on, she was going to treat herself well.
The medical examination results needed to wait for twenty–eight hours to be obtained. That night, Peyton slept soundly, with no dark sea engulfing her in her dreams.
She saw a child walking towards her in a field of flowers, and the child placed a flower crown on her head.
“Mom, please be happy.”
Peyton held the child. She looked up and gazed into Chris’s eyes.
The dream came to an abrupt end. Peyton saw the sunlight outside the window and smiled helplessly. How did she dream about that child again?
Peyton pulled open all the curtains and reached out to touch the light streaming in through the window.
When a person has a warm heart, the sunlight they feel is also warm.
After dressing appropriately, she went to the company. It was her first day.
In the lobby of the company, she saw Nolan surrounded by a crowd, forming a stark contrast with her being alone.
She bowed to him like the other staff members, “Mr. Dalton.”
Nolan nodded and then averted his gaze, passing by her expressionlessly. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
He acted as if they had never met.
Peyton walked towards the crowded elevator, while Nolan headed towards the exclusive elevator.
The relationship between her and Nolan should have been like parallel lines that can never intersect.
Peyton only realized at that moment that the cruelest words in this world were not “I’m sorry” or “I hate you“, but “we can never go back to the old times again.”
Peyton pressed the close button, separating Nolan forever.
