Come With Me

Chapter 18 A Fleeting Surprise

Seeing that my mother had left, I took a deep breath, turned around and entered the house of the Luo family.

I didn't want to go back to that breathless house so soon.

I walked to the corner of the courtyard, trying to combine my sadness with the twilight of the night.

To my surprise, I saw a scarlet light flickering in the darkness.

I stopped and looked at the man. It turned out to be Robbie.

"Why don't you tell everyone that you are Rogelio's wife?"

"Don't you all think that I brought shame on the Luo family? No one is willing to accept me?"

Even the air between us became quiet. Robbie was still smoking quietly while I was just standing there.

After smoking, Robbie crashed the cigarette end and looked towards the party which was still lively.

He put his hands in his trouser pockets and habitually took out the cigarette box again.

"You smoke too much."

"I don't like to get drunk. But cigarette is a good thing."

That moment, I seemed feel something from Robbie. It turned out that he could not live a happier life than others, even though he looked distinguished.

It might be a sadness. Maybe it was because he seldom laughed, or maybe it was because we were both unhappy except for the gap of money.

"Why? Since my birth is a shame on your family, why do you still want me to marry in?"

"Shame? It's a shame, but some people couldn't feel it."
