Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chana's POV:

George's mother called him several times in succession, but he refused to answer her calls.He asked me sternly to hang up the phone.I tried to answer it and put the phone on the table, hoping he would say something, but he hung up directly.He was silent from the beginning to end.

After hanging up the phone, he went right back to his studies.He was stoic.

No joy or anger was written on his face.His studies were his only source of interest.

Absolutely nothing else intrigued him.He had become like an empty shell.

Although he had heard that his grandfather was lying on his deathbed, his expression did not change at all.

His mother was very anxious and called me dozens of times to persuade him to return home and see his grandfather one last time.

But it was impossible to convince a man who had lost his soul.I heard about George's divorce through Boswell.

Not much information about the divorce was shared so I didn't know much.

But I had heard the name Jane crop up.

Later, I tried again to persuade him to go back and see his grandfather lest he had any regrets later, but George kept on studying as if he hadn't heard me speak.I wanted to broach the subject again.

He sensed it and shot a cold glare at me.

"Why don't you go there for me on my behalf?"

How could somebody else do it for him? Then I chose to shut my big mouth rather than respond.

As George's assistant for so many years, I knew him very well.

Once he had made a decision, no one could change it.

A few days later, Kendal, George's close friend, came to the base.

I knew him because he had called George on many occasions before, and he was the only one who had the guts to shout at George on the phone.

Seeing a savior in him, I immediately took him to George's research base on the third floor.
