Chapter 1 of After the Heartbreak, I Shunned His Advances

1

That day was my best friend Bella King's wedding day. We had just arrived at the banquet hall after she had changed into her wedding dress when Bella lowered her voice and said, "Amy Hall, the pearl earrings my mother-in-law gave me are gone."

I walked all the way to the door of the dressing room, but I didn't find the earrings. Just as I was about to push the door open, a hand suddenly came from behind, grabbed my waist and pulled me back, and the other hand covered my mouth directly.

I was dragged into the room behind me, and the door was locked with a "click".

I instinctively wanted to escape, but due to the disparity in strength, I was pinned against the wall next to the door.

When I saw who it was, I couldn't help but frown.

"Are you looking for it?" Alan Scott shook the royal blue velvet box.

I stretched out my hand to grab it, but he suddenly raised it above his head and said jokingly, "It's been so long since we last met, why don't you talk with me first?"

As soon as the words fell, he kissed me.

I was already annoyed that I couldn't find the earrings, and now that I had met him, I became even more furious. I raised my hand and slapped him. Then I suddenly pushed hard against his chest with the other hand, forcing myself to move away from him.

"That's enough, Alan. It was you who wanted to break up."

Probably because he didn't expect that I dared to hit him, his gloomy eyes were tinged with a bit of coldness, and in an instant, the corners of his eyes turned red, as if I was the unfaithful one.

It was the twenty-sixth year since I traveled through time.

My mission was to fulfill the unfulfilled wish of my past life to fall in love with Alan and become his wife.

A month before, I made a plate of pasta for Alan as usual. He ate it all.

When he put down his fork, he suddenly said to me, "Amy, let's break up."

I asked him with red eyes, "Why?"

We were just in love, but the next moment he suddenly wanted to break up.

Alan's eyes flickered, and he replied, "I'm tired of you."

The next day, the Scott family officially announced their marriage to the Baker family, and the wedding date was set for the 18th of next month.

My mission was a complete failure. The system erased my memory of him as punishment.

Of course, it was what the system told me later.

Now all I remembered was that Alan and I broke up. I had forgotten every detail of the more than two years I spent with him.

I hurried back to the banquet hall with the earrings, just in time for the newlyweds to toast their parents. When no one was looking, I handed the velvet box to Bella and said, "Put them on quickly."

I followed her and secretly replaced the red wine with Coke for her. When we arrived at the table of the groom's friends, I saw Alan at a glance.

His gaze fell directly on me.

As soon as we approached, a group of people started to make a noise, "Bill Green, you can't fool us. I heard that Bella can drink a lot."

"But...she can't drink alcohol now."

Bill's words were vague, but everyone understood what he meant.

"Oh~"

There was a burst of laughter.

Alan suddenly said, "Since Bella can't drink, let the bridesmaid drink."

Probably everyone at the table knew about the things between Alan and me, so they all looked like they were expecting something. Alan's fingers tapped the tabletop lightly, and a teasing smile lifted on the corners of his mouth.

Finally, I toasted everyone one by one, suppressed the discomfort, and then vomited in the bathroom.

Fortunately, the wedding banquet was over when I came out. I sent a message to Bella, then went out through the side door and went straight home.

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled the familiar odor of smoke.

There was a spark flickering at the location of the sofa.

With a "click", I turned on the light in the living room and blinked a few times because of the sudden light. When I saw Alan, I was a little unhappy. "How did you get in?"

He pressed the unburned cigarette butt into the ashtray and strode towards me. "You know that."

When I saw the key placed on the table, I smiled. I actually forgot to change the lock on the door after breaking up.

I got around him and poured myself a glass of water.

Alan hugged me hard from behind. "You left me the key on purpose just to get me to come over, didn't you? Amy, don't play hard to get again."

It was quite funny. He was the one who said he wanted to break up, so why he was pretending to be so affectionate now?

"Well. Just leave the key here and don't come over again."

I ordered him to leave.
