Chapter 329 A Chance to Remedy for Your Loss
Chapter 329 A Chance to Remedy for Your Loss
Harry called Lola directly when he didn't see her in the coffee store. He was really worried that she might hurt herself again. But Lola accidentally picked up the phone and mistook him as Jordan. She told him she was at Panlong Cemetery. Harry predicted that she must have gone to the cemetery to visit Zoe.
Of course he didn't tell her the truth that he was Harry, not Jordan. If she had known that, she would not let him pick her up! Or worse, she would have gone some place that he didn't know.
The notification tone of his Weibo caught his attention when he was driving. He had set the ring tone for only one person on receiving new messages on Weibo. That was Lola. Had she updated a post on her Weibo?
He took the chance to glance over on the cellphone when he was waiting for the green traffic signal. Indeed, Lola had made an update.
The tone of her words was very sad. He could feel how depressed she was as she was alone in the cemetery at this very moment. Thinking about this, Harry sped up a little bit more. He was very anxious to see her.
Half an hour later
Hearing the whistling of a car, Lola raised her head, only to see the familiar Lamborghini. It was not Jordan as her brother's car was a military vehicle.
What had happened? Why did he come here? She was so bewildered. Then she browsed the call records on her cellphone.
It happened that the call she had just picked up was from Harry! That's a shame... .... She had thought that it was from Jordan. She should have checked the name on the screen first. Lola blamed herself for
being so stupid.
Harry turned around the car and abruptly stopped right in front of her.
He got off the car from the driver's seat and gently opened the door for Lola. "Get on the car, please."
Lola looked around. It was getting darker, and she could not find anyone who could help her out here. She sighed and then reluctantly got on the car.
They listened to a soothing music in the car and kept silent. It was completely dark outside.
When they arrived at the downtown area, it was already past seven o'clock. Lola politely said, "Mr. Si, please stop at the next crossroad. I will get off there." They were in the downtown now, so she could just hail a taxi to go home. She felt there was no need for him to take her all the way to her home.
Harry glanced at her but still kept quiet. He kept one of his hand holding the steering wheel, while he dragged hers with another hand.
"Just wait. I will go to the supermarket to buy some food. We can cook and eat dinner at my place."
His words suddenly reminded Lola that the day before they went to take the wedding photos, they had also went to the supermarket together. She remembered that he also bought some vegetables and meat and cooked for her at home. He was quite a good cook and she enjoyed the food he cooked for her. They both felt very happy that day.
But now, everything had changed. There was no need to repeat the things they did before. Nothing good would ever come out of it.
"Thank you, Mr. Si. I do appreciate your offer. But I want to go home. Please pull the car over." She pulled out her hands from his palm and looked firmly outside.
Harry noticed that there was a supermarket by the roadside. So he immediately stopped the car on the parking lot beside the road.
It was dim inside the car. He stopped the engine and held her shoulders to let her face him and pull her even closer. Then he sincerely pleaded, "Lola, give me a chance to remedy for your loss, will you? Please let me do this."
She looked at him but didn't know what to say. He added, "You don't need to respond or do anything. I will feel contented if you don't refuse what I will offer to you." If she gave him another chance, he would do anything to win her heart over again.
"Mr. Si, there are so many women in the world. And besides, you are already engaged with Cherry. You are behaving like a jerk now to mess up with me!" Her eyes were full of contempt. There were no other emotions other than that.
Harry unlocked the seat belt and took her into his arms. He kissed her on her head and explained, "No, I'm not engaged with Cherry, She's not my fiancee. I did give her a ring. But... I really can't forget you. I'm still in love with you, Lola." He had planned to follow his mother's will to marry Cherry. His mother had taken a liking for Cherry.
And he had already put the date of proposal on his agenda. However, before that day, Nicole suddenly had a high fever. Because of the very high fever, Nicole became hysterical and cried to be with her mother. He delayed the proposal at that moment.
"Although I have looked at you as the murderer of my mother, your image has always been haunting in my mind when I didn't see you." He could not control his mind now. He only wanted to win her heart back.
Lola stayed speechless in his arms. She was actually really touched by his words. But even so, she could not forgive him.
She already made up her mind to leave here. She unlocked her seat belt and prepared to get off the car.
Harry held her wrist once more. "Lola, I know you are angry with me. But please give me a chance, please." He put his hands around her neck and tried to pull her closer towards him.
However, looking at this anxious and helpless man, she would not change her mind this time. "Sorry, Mr. Si. The Lola you have known before is already dead." She finished her words in a cold voice and then left the car without turning back.
Looking at Lola disappearing into the night, he punched hard at the steering wheel. He felt so upset and angry. He hated himself. He hated that he had done so many wrong things to Lola.
Lola hailed a taxi and went home. In the car, she leaned on the back seat and thought about Harry's words. Tears ran down her cheeks.
The car was going really fast. She looked at the night scenery outside and took out a napkin to wipe her tears.
She said to herself, Lola, can you just hold on and be strong? It's not worthy to shed tears for that cruel man. She closed her eyes and bit her lips in bitterness.
He said he had been thinking of her all the time. And he also said he was not engaged with Cherry.
He wanted to make up for his mistakes. Should she go back to him? Should she trust him one more time? Will it be worth the pain and the sacrifice?
No! No! She didn't want to trust him again! Not even once!
The taxi stopped at the gates of the Li Manor. Lola paid the fee and got off the car. Under the dim road lamp, there stopped a car which she was very familiar with.
The man leaned on the car. He was casually smoking a cigarette.
What was he up to do? It seemed that he would not give up if she didn't obey to his request. He had gone so far as to follow her to her home! He was really determined!
Seeing that Lola has gotten off the car, Harry immediately put out the cigarette, threw the butt into the trash bin and walked towards her.
He said in a helpless tone, "I thought for a while, and if you really wanted to go home, please bring me with you. I have prepared for the worst situation that your mother and your father will beat me hard. But even so, I still want to go with you. Let's go inside together!" After sincerely saying this, he held Lola's shoulders and prepared to enter the house.
Lola was stupefied. What? Was he joking or something? Did he really mean this? Well, he's really that brave and determined... If she let him get inside the house with her, her parents would throw both of them out! Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Hey, Mr. Si, you're shameless!" They were again caught in a deadlock.
Harry smiled and faced her as she was reluctant to move forward to him. "I'm at my wit's end. If I don't put my face down, how could I win back my wife's heart?"
Lola stared at him and didn't know what to say.
The she blurted out, "Why are you always doing such strange things to destroy your image? Do you think it's interesting and fun? Are you that bored with your life?" She tried to embarrass him.
Harry suddenly held her into his arms. "No matter what you say, I will follow you to the end. Lola, I won't let you get out of my hands for the rest of your life! I realize that you are the only person who can make happy!" He said firmly. There was a hint of desperation in his tone.
She was pulled into the car by Harry again. He immediately threw himself on her body and threatened, "If you don't go with me, I will do it here right now." He was determined to take her home tonight.
Lola closed her eyes. She was very tired by his constant annoyance. Her head was literally aching already.
At last, she surrendered and nodded. Harry went back to the driver's seat and drove the car away.
On the road, Lola's phone rang. It was from Jordan. He just finished his work and found that Lola had called him before.
"Brother, have you finished your work? It's nothing. I'm fine now. Thank you for your concern." She pulled herself together and answered the phone. She had to control her emotions.
