The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee

Chapter 168 The Past Was Gone

Boris clenched his fists in shock.

Ziana’s response was like a heavy blow that landed directly on his heart.

Sharp pain and soreness spread instantly throughout his body, and all the strength seemed to be drained from him.

“What did you say?” His voice was h**rse, with barely detectable trembles.

Despite this, he forced a bitter smile on his face, unwilling to believe or accept the truth, much like an ostrich burying its head in the

sand.

He hung his head, avoiding her gaze, as if he were avoiding a cruel trial. “Ziana, don’t be angry and lie to me.”

Ziana shook her head, her tone firm. “I didn’t lie.”

Boris’ heart sank.

This feeling was even more overwhelming than when Ziana had rejected his proposal for remarriage the first time.

Boris panicked and tried to persuade Ziana, “Actually, you’re trying to make me jealous of him, right?”.

Ziana laughed at this. “No, I genuinely like…”

Boris knew what she was going to say, but he didn’t want to hear it.

He interrupted Ziana, even lowered his head to stare at his black shoes. “I know, I was too harsh on you in the past, but it’s okay. You like gentleness, and I can learn to change. I promise I’ll change, even in the areas you don’t like.”

“Boris…”

“I know that you love me. We have been together for three years, and we even have a kid. How can you change your mind so quickly? Do you remember what you said? You said you would always like me. You said it yourself. Have you forgotten?”

Ziana looked at the man in front of her.

Boris used to be confident and proud, but now he stood at the door, head hung low, like a child who had done something wrong.

This was the first time Boris had spoken to her with such a soft tone and even a humble, begging attitude.

For a brief moment, her heart was overwhelmed with a sharp pain, but she quickly told herself that she couldn’t turn back, that she

couldn’t be soft-hearted.

This was just an illusion. Boris’ pride was at stake. He couldn’t tolerate Ziana having someone else, but it wasn’t genuine love.

If Boris loved Ziana, he wouldn’t have left Ziana alone in an empty house for the past three years.
