Chapter 1775
There was no room for negotiation
Presley returned the next day, bombarded by reporters at the airport.
The divorce of the elderly couple had apparently overshadowed the gossip at the Global Economic Summit
Presley, with a stem face and not uttering a word, managed to leave the airport and headed straight for Alyssas villa.
The living room was filled with a tense atmosphere until Presley walked in c2
After a long silence, it was Presley who broke it “What the hell do you mean?” he asked.
Alyssa pressed her lips together. Didn’t you understand the news?
“Alyssa” Presley shouted angrily. “Do you have any idea how torturous and embarrassing that I have been this whole time? Are you trying to stir the pot at this point?”
Alyssa laughed coldly “After all these years, I’m grateful I didn’t have a heart attack because of you. But now you don’t have the chance or the right to yell at me you’re suffering. I’ve known you all my life, but have you ever considered how torturous it is to be with you?”
Presley’s expression froze
“Are you just expecting others to consider you? You’re the most tired, tormented, and innocent person in this whole world, and everyone else is wrong. Everyone should revolve around you, and anyone with their own thoughts and opinions is defiant
“Presley think back on the past decades and ask yourself, when have you ever considered others? When have you really listened to others opinions?
“Have you ever tried to empathize and understand others? Have you ever reflected on yourself when lying alone in bed in the middle of the night?
“I dont think so, because anyone who has cared a bit wouldn’t indulge in living their own way like you have done until now
“Everyone has their own life, and you only have your own. Why do you insist on controlling others‘ lives? What pleasure does it bring you to have so many lives at your disposal?
“I was too young back then, and I didn’t see the real you, I blindly believed in love. As long as everything felt right, I was ready to go down this path with you But I’m not a fool. It was only after I had children and grandchildren, that I realized how selfish my blindness was. The events that led us to this point today, my blind trust and indulgence in you, have now implicated them
“Ive always convinced myself to never regret, but Presley, you’ve made it impossible for me to deceive myself You, as you are now have negated the nearly sixty years spent with you.”
Alyssa paused, her usually kind or indifferent face now filled with bitter sadness. She was subtly shaking slowly closing her eyes. Her face, marked by the years, was clearly reddened around her eyes
Presley’s cold eyes flickered at the sight of her, his lips moved, but he said nothing
“Presley, some people don’t even have sixty years”
Alyssa slowly opened her eyes, the red veins in her eyes prominent Tve spent my entire life tied to you, and what have you given me in the end? You’ve ruined my life. I don’t want to be with you anymore, so in the remaining years of my life, I must sever this mistaken life with you. Let’s end it here, Presley, and please, for once, let go and leave me alone”
Presley watched her silently, and after a long moment, he slowly stood up. His movements were shaky and unsteady. “I disagree”
