Win Her Back

Dumbfounded, Hester stood outside the door, wondering what she did wrong. Why did Terence hate her so much? She was his fiancee!

Hester slowly sank into the floor and curled up into a ball. It felt as if she was falling into a bottomless abyss.

This was the first time she felt so helpless and scared.

At that moment, she remembered what Mrs. Qi told her on her death bed.

"Hester... I will be leaving soon. You have to take good care of Terence for me. He will soon be your husband, the one who will always protect you and cherish you. You must hold him tightly, never let him go.

He is not good at expressing himself. His words mean no harm, but I know that you are smart enough to not be confused by what you see on the surface. Believe me, dear. You love him, and he loves you too. You two will be together forever, but... I'm afraid I won't be there when you two wed.

Promise me something, okay? Please, don't give up... "

Mrs. Qi held Hester's hand tightly, and then closed her eyes slowly, a single tear rolling down her cheek.

It was the last thing Mrs. Qi ever said to her. 'Don't give up!' These words rang over and over in Hester's head.

She took a deep breath and gathered up all her courage, her fists clenching with determination.

Mrs. Qi was right. Hester remembered Terence's promise to her when they were still kids. She believed that Terence still loved her, and would keep his promise. Although she hadn't seen him for many years, Hester had firmly believed that his original intentions did not change despite the fact that he had changed so much.

'It is highly possible that he still loves me. It just so happens that Mrs. Qi has only passed away recently. Perhaps he's still just unable to agree to such a hasty marriage.' With all this in mind, Hester was determined that she would try her best to be a good wife!

Hours later, the sun had completely set, and the moon was high in the sky. Finally, the door to Terence's bedroom opened. Hester had already prepared dinner for Terence, worrying that if he doesn't eat a thing, he would have a stomachache.

She was waiting by the door with a tray of food, a wide smile on her face. However, much to her surprise, the beautiful woman was the one who emerged from the door.
