We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

Chapter 751

she realized that they hadn’t talked for a long time.Elisa felt guilty for shunning him, but at the same time, she felt relieved and peaceful when she was spared of his presence. Whenever Carle came to her, she would feel stressed for no apparent reason. But she didn’t tell him that, lest she hurt his feelings.Elisa responded promptly, “I’m at work. What about you?”Carle could return to his office and work as usual since his injury in the head had healed.Carle beamed a smile and said, “Well, I’ve just finished a meeting.” He lied. There were no meetings today. In fact, he had been cooping in his office all day. He lied to suggest that he had not followed the sensational news on Twitter.Meanwhile, Elisa wondered if Carle knew about the tweet.But……She didn’t intend to explain herself.As for Carle, who was at his last straw of faith, he was still wistfully hoping for a miracle.He hoped Elisa cared about him enough to confide in him about the rose incident. He would rather believe that she had not been in contact with him because of her busy work schedule and not because she was avoiding him.He clutched the phone anticipating Elisa’s response with his heart in his mouth.Elisa said noncommittedly, “I see.”She didn’t know what else to say anymore.But Carle was waiting for her explanation anxiously, only for her to shrug off his anticipation.In that instant, Carle felt a stab through his heart.Indeed.He didn’t matter to Elisa. She only agreed to be in a relationship with him initially because she was afraid that he wouldn’t pull through the coma.She chose to stick around in this relationship because she didn’t want to break his heart and trigger his injury.Carle let out a bitter smile. He was too naïve and overconfident.He thought his effort had paid off, and Elisa had finally agreed to be his girlfriend.But in the end, his devotion turned out to be a waste. He was nothing but a joke.Everyone knew what was going on, except for him, who foolishly believed that he had finally changed Elisa’s heart and that she had fallen in love with him.At that moment, he felt his soul vacate from his flesh.
