I gradually calmed down. This kind of woman is not worthy of my true love! I took out my cell phone and dialed my mother's number.
"Mom, I've decided not to stay in the country anymore. I'll go to the United States to accompany you next week at the latest." When my mother heard what I said, she was surprised and worried and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen with Lucienne?"
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to run a chain company in China with her? Mom hasn't allocated the funds to you yet, why do you want to go to the United States again?" She paused and asked, "If I remember correctly, today should be your engagement party? You decided to go abroad at this time, so what about your wedding?"
I suppressed the waves in my heart, not wanting to make my mother worry about me: "Mom, don't worry about it. I'm still young, let's talk about getting married later..."
After booking a flight to the United States next week, I accidentally saw Brandon's post half an hour ago. In the photo, he, Lucienne and the child stood together with smiles on their faces. The caption read: "After eight years, you finally came back to me. Our family of three will always be happy..."
This post was only published half an hour ago, but it has already received a lot of likes and comments. I browsed through it and found that most of the messages were from college classmates: "You two are together again. I always think you two are a perfect match!"
" As expected of the son of a handsome man and a beautiful girl, he looks so energetic!" "When are you getting married? I will definitely be there to drink at your wedding!" At the bottom, there was a unified reply from Brandon: "Classmates, don't worry, the wedding date has not been set yet. Tomorrow night I plan to set up a few tables at the Sofitel Hotel, firstly to allow old classmates who haven't seen each other for a long time to get together, and secondly to celebrate my and Lucienne's wedding. Everyone must come tomorrow, and I will pay for all the expenses!"
Brandon 's comment came out, the comment area was boiling again: "Wow, he is indeed the school hunk, I must show my support tomorrow night!" "The school hunk is so majestic!" "I must show my support!"
However , looking at these comments, my heart was not moved at all. I silently clicked the like button and followed my classmates to leave a message in the comment area: "Congratulations!"
After putting down my phone, I slowly lit a cigarette. After taking a deep breath, in the smoke, I recalled the past with Lucienne.
In college, Lucienne was the goddess recognized by our major and even the whole school. Although I came from a prominent family, I always kept a low profile. I don't like to use expensive clothes and luxury goods to package myself, and I am not interested in these. It is no exaggeration to say that I don't have high material requirements. Even the mobile phone I used in college was just an ordinary mid-range phone.
This led to me being an inconspicuous poor boy in the eyes of my classmates. Brandon, on the other hand , paid great attention to dressing himself up. He would get up an hour earlier almost every morning to take care of his hair and match his clothes. In fact, his appearance is not outstanding, but with his careful dressing, he became the "class flower" in the class.
They both have one thing in common, that is, the sense of superiority from the outside world makes their vision rise accordingly, and they feel from the bottom of their hearts that ordinary people are not worthy of themselves. At that time in the class, it seemed that only the two of them could be considered a real match - a talented man and a beautiful woman, a natural match. They really thought so, so not long after the start of the freshman year, the two confirmed their relationship. The classmates sent their blessings and said that the two of them were a model of love.
I vaguely remember that they were very sweet at that time, and their affectionate figures were left everywhere on campus. However, the good times did not last long. Brandon had no parents since he was a child and was raised by his uncle. His uncle is of Chinese descent in the United States. It is said that he has a big business there and is worth over 100 million. His uncle felt that the education level in China was far inferior to that abroad, so he took Brandon to study abroad at the end of his freshman year.
The two also insisted on an international relationship at that time, but it did not last long. For this reason, Lucienne was depressed for a long time. By chance, we shared a table in the library. After a few visits, we began to get familiar with each other slowly. We would meet together to study, eat, and participate in school club activities.
With the blessing of being classmates, and the fact that I was honest and good-looking, she gradually developed a liking for me and began to hint at me. I was so happy that the school beauty was chasing me, so why should I refuse? Until one day we held hands and got together.
All this seemed magical and natural to me. However, after we were together, we were not recognized by our classmates. Because in everyone's eyes, I was just an ordinary poor boy who was not worthy of Lucienne. In their hearts, the only one who could match Lucienne was Brandon.
Even so, Lucienne stood firmly in front of me and refuted those rumors and comforted me not to listen to others. She said she loved me and would love me forever. After graduation, for her, I did not return to my mother's company to take over, but chose to work locally.
At that time, I wanted to make a name for myself and did not want to live under the halo of my mother. I wanted to make a good life for Lucienne through my own efforts . Everything was so normal and my relationship with Lucienne was so stable. I thought I could live happily with Lucienne until we grow old.
However, five years ago, Brandon returned to China. He suddenly broke into my life as a college classmate and caught me off guard. Lucienne gradually began to ignore me and distracted her attention from our relationship, focusing more on Brandon . Later, Brandon could easily call her away from me with just a phone call. The two of them began to go out in public together, leaving me aside. Sometimes I couldn't even tell who Lucienne's boyfriend was . I was jealous because of this, but Lucienne always called me petty. She said that she and he were just ordinary friends...
It was not until now that I found out that they had gotten together three years ago while I was studying abroad and had a child! This is what we call ordinary friends! And the engagement party that should have been for me became a reunion party for her family of three...
