He shook his head slowly. It was only a few steps away, but he staggered to finish the distance. "I don't agree. How can you give up on me so easily? We have been through so many hardships together to get to where we are today. How can you say you give up so rashly? We are still engaged. How can I explain this to your mother?"

However, I was not the first to give up. In his most difficult time, I was always by his side and accompanied him through those days. Now that he is in high spirits, perhaps all he needs is a believer who does not understand his past, but only worships him and shares his joy.

As for explanation? " Shane , I wanted to marry you in the past because I hoped that we could build a family full of love and tenderness together, not just to give an explanation to my mother. Now, you don't need to explain anything."

My repeated refusals finally made him lose his mind. His eyes were bloodshot, and he punched the closet so hard that the hangers clanged. "I said no! You can't leave me! Whether you love me or not, you have to stay by my side and can't give up on me! Don't you want to treat your mother's illness?"

In order to treat my mother, I went to hospitals all over the country, but was repeatedly rejected. Later, Shane contacted a friend who had returned from studying abroad and helped to take a look. Only then did my mother's condition gradually stabilize and she enjoyed a few more years. Now he only wants to use my weakness to keep me, but does he remember where he went on the night when my mother fell ill half a month ago?

I was furious and yelled at him, "I don't need you to marry me, or explain to my mother, or treat her illness! You don't understand me, do you? I don't have a mother anymore!"

" I don't have a mother anymore." This sentence was like a thunder, exploding between Shane and me . He looked at me in shock, perhaps wondering why he was still calling him to accompany me half a month ago, but now he is gone.

"You...when did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?" His voice was trembling.

"I didn't tell you!" I pulled up the clothes and pillows on the bed and threw them all at him. "When my mother was in critical condition in the operating room, your Quincy drank for you and had an alcohol allergy, and you stayed with her in the hospital! When I was suffering outside the operating room, you said there were nurses, why did you come!"

Shane buried his head in his arms, his body twitching. I believe he was really upset, after all, my mother also meant something to him.

"I was wrong, Lisa, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, it's all my fault." However, an apology may make me soften my heart, but it cannot bring back the mother I have lost and the feelings that have disappeared.

When I was carrying my luggage to the car, he was still trying to persuade me to stay. "Can you please not leave? Can you give me another chance?" People will not cherish things that come easily. I have given him countless chances. Seeing that I didn't say anything, he tentatively stretched out his hand. The moment he was about to touch it, the phone rang. He took a look, as if to prove something to me, and didn't answer. I didn't need to think to know that it was Quincy calling. But it doesn't matter, let him do whatever he wants.

When the car started to drive away, the ringing bell continued to ring. The song and the person finally disappeared in the rearview mirror.

When we bought this riverfront apartment, Shane said it was unnecessary, but I insisted on buying it, saying that I would have a place to go if we had a fight in the future. I didn't expect that it would really become my refuge now, which is really funny.

After I finished packing my new home, I still had to go back to work. I didn't expect to see a good show as soon as I entered the company.
