Chapter 229 He Lost Her
Audrey saw Sterling not speaking, only staring at her with those dark and profound eyes, and her heart tightened. She slowly got up and walked towards him.
The slender white hand gently held his hand.
Sterling looked at her delicate and slender fingers, her thin lips tightly pursed.
Her fingertips felt cold, as if they had been soaked in snow water on a winter day.
As soon as he moved a little, he could grasp her hand back.
Give her enough warmth.
But he couldn't!
He closed his narrow eyes with crimson bloodshot, and expressionlessly withdrew his fingers from her hand. Audrey watched as the hands of the two people slowly drifted apart, and her heart sank to the bottom of the valley. All the courage and perseverance. in an instant, turned into bubbles!
She lowered her thick and long eyelashes, and after a moment of silence, she raised her head to look at him.
In the depths of the deer’s eyes, there was a silence like still water, without overwhelming sadness or hysterics, only tranquility. <
“Look into my eyes and say it to me again!”
No matter the reason, he said it again and she obeyed him.
Sterling felt her determination and also sensed her intention of coming to see him today.
His heart began to contract uncontrollably.
He really wanted to step forward and tightly embrace her in his arms.
But the legs felt as heavy as lead!
He felt this sense of helplessness for the first time.
The corridor was quite quiet, so quiet that we could hear each other’s varying breaths.
Over the past six months, every little moment we spent together flashed through our minds.
They locked eyes, as if trying to see into each other’s deepest souls.
Like an illusion, this glance was the final gaze.
Sterling pursed his thin lips, his deep black eyes dimly lit by the hallway lights. “Il was good to you, only to seek revenge on Corbin. Now that Corbin has been caught, you are no longer of any use to me. Stay away from me in the future!”
Although she had heard him say it once before. Audrey still felt a suffocating sensation when she heard it again.
She lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled incessantly.
Seemingly struck by a major blow, she is trying hard to calm down her
emotions.

After a while, she finally lifted her eyelashes and looked at him again.
There were traces of mist in her eyes, but she never cried in front of him from beginning to end.
Enough!
After being reborn, she had always wanted to repay the favor and save him.
Did she consider herself as a savior?
Even if she wanted to save him, she still had to see if he needed it, right?
Every time they had a conflict, she would always take a step back first due to a sense of guilt.
Her heart, too, was made of flesh, and she would get tired too!
After going through this incident, she thought that she had already. repaid what she owed him.
He didn’t need her to be by his side anymore, so she was no longer annoying!
In her past life, she entangled with Corbin and ended up with a tragic death.
In this lifetime, she didn’t want to entangle with anyone anymore.
Audrey nodded at him, unwilling to lose her last bit of dignity and pride.
She raised the corners of her lips and smiled slightly, saying. “Three strikes and you’ve already pushed me away twice. | won't put on a gentle face and give you a third chance to push me away again!”

“However. Sterling, listen carefully, |, Audrey, am not a pet that comes and goes at your beck and call, nor am | something you can decide on and push away whenever you please!”
“| said that | was not afraid of any difficulties or dangers, and all | wanted was to accompany you. But you no longer need me, so all | can do is stop bothering you!”
“No matter whether you will be good or not in the future, it has nothing to do with me anymore. | have repaid everything | owe you!”
| will no longer be soft-hearted towards him because of owing him, nor will | treat him differently because of his kindness. Since you have chosen to let go, from now on, you and | are like strangers!
Audrey's clear deer eyes swept across his sharply handsome face. Her gaze landed on one end of the corridor, and her delicate face became serene and pure. “I have said before, when it comes to emotions, | don’t like to drag things out. If we like each other, let’s be together. If we don't, let’s separate. And if we do separate, let’s not look back!”
“Since you have already made your choice, | now respect your decision, but | will not turn back in the future!”
“The agreement made after the college entrance examination, as you wished, is null and void!”
“In the future, you were you, and | was me!”
Sterling put both hands into his pockets, his fingers clenched tightly into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged out. He bit down hard on his cheek, tasting the metallic flavor of blood in his throat.

He understood her temperament. Beneath her seemingly delicate appearance, there was a stubborn and resilient heart. Decisions made, will never turn back!
She was indeed different to him, giving him another chance!
But he couldn't cherish it!
When he spoke again, his voice was h o ar se, “Remember what you said, | won't turn back anymore!”
Audrey's expression flickered, and a faint smile curled up at the corner of her lips. “Okay!”
She didn’t say anything anymore, stood up straight, didn’t look at him again, and walked towards the direction of the elevator. Sterling also did not look back at her.
He didn’t move his legs as if they were as heavy as gold until the elevator made a ding sound, and the sound of the doors opening and closing rang out.
Sterling walked up to the entrance of the apartment and noticed a thermos sitting in the corner.
He picked up the thermos and looked towards the elevator.
The elevator had already gone downstairs.
Sterling entered the apartment holding a thermos.
He leaned against the door frame and opened the thermal insulation box.
There was a box of dumplings inside.

He picked one up and put it in his mouth.
The taste was good, it seemed much more delicious than what he usually ate.
His eyes welled up with tears.
Ate one, then ate another one.
Until a box of dumplings was completely eaten.
His eyes were red, making his pupils appear even darker and deeper.
The tall and stern figure slowly squatted down.
He held his head in his hands, appearing dejected and desolate.
He pushed her away with his own hands!
And she, no longer persisted. With her excellence and brilliance, would surely shine the brightest in the future!

At that moment, he also keenly felt that he had lost her.
No matter how, he lost her!
After Audrey walked out of the apartment building, she tightly wrapped her slender body with both hands.
The cool night breeze blew over, and she felt as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cellar
She didn’t expect that cutting off all contact with him would be so painful and suffocating.
Sterling, the boy who intruded into her life...
In the future, we will really become strangers!
lwo bodyguards who had been secretly following Audrey approached her when they saw her in a daze, and asked if she wanted them to drive her back. Audrey shook her head.
She wanted to take a walk alone and calm down.
The bodyguard dared not ask anything more and could only drive behind her.
Audrey walked along the road, resembling a soulless puppet, pale, hollow, and bewildered.
Inside a dark-colored sedan.
Two men in black looked at Audrey on the road and exchanged a glance.
“Do you think they were acting, or was she not really his weak spot?”
