Chapter 216 Gentle Adenauer

Hearing the ringtone on the phone, I felt my heart racing aga

I didn’t know if my choice was right. Maybe I had gone crazy. Maybe I would realize it was a wrong decision in the future and hate myself even more. My selfishness and vulnerability would only hurt others! But I did it anyway.

While waiting, I felt as if time had slowed down. When I stared blankly at the phone screen, my heart was full of contradictions. And I wish the call could never get through. However, as soon as this idea popped into my mind, he answered the call.

Seeing the call duration under his name increasing from zero, I put the phone to my ear.

Then, I heard a long breath before he said, “Olive?”

I should have been familiar with his deep and charming voice, but I was unexpectedly taken aback. I was so nervous that I felt my heart about to jump out of my chest. And I suspected he could hear my intense heartbeats on the other end of the phone.

“Olive, what’s wrong? Where are you now?”

His tone became anxious, full of worry.

“No, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me,” I hurriedly explained. But when I opened my mouth, my words were incoherent. I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down. After all, there was no turning back at this point.

“I just wanted to ask you a question.”

I closed my eyes and plucked up my courage, saying, “Adenauer, can I change my mind?”

While speaking, I couldn’t even raise my head because of the guilt in my heart. I had a lot to explain, but my confused mind did not allow me to organize my language within a short time.

An hour ago, I had bluntly rejected him. But now, I changed my mind. How ridiculous it was!

If I were him, I would severely scold this capricious woman and hang up the phone.

But he didn’t, so we were still on the phone.

I meant. But when he came back to his senses, he would be extremely disappointed with me. And
