Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
Flossie didn’t write anything else.
Halston closed the thick notebook.It felt like he’d just experienced four different seasons of the year.
The novel had taken him on an emotional roller-coaster ride…He had no idea Flossie loved him so much.He also had no idea he used to be such a detestable person.
Just as it took time for the sun to set, it would take time for human emotions to fade.
Suddenly, Halston understood why Flossie could move on so quickly…
“Halston, I’ve got news for you!”
Xavier suddenly barged in and exclaimed excitedly.
“Are you serious?” Halston looked at Xavier with a cold gaze.His eyes instantly lit up.
“My men just sent me a message.They said they saw your wife at an antique market in Water Dock.Here are the photos they sent me,” Xavier gushed.He quickly switched on his phone and zoomed in on a photo for Halston.
This was a photo taken from the side.
The woman’s tall nasal bridge and collar bones looked perfectly identical to Flossie’s.
That wasn’t all.She even had on the same white dress Flossie once wore.
This unclear photo of her face from the side was enough to ignite Halston’s passion and hope! He didn’t even hesitate for a split second before standing to his feet.
“Let’s have a look.”
The two drove to Water Dock.
Meanwhile, Christopher stayed at Guajardo Villa in case of an emergency.
Xavier saw Halston clinging tightly onto a notebook.He couldn’t help but feel curious.
“Halston, is your notebook a confidential document? Why won’t you put it down?”
“It isn’t,” Halston replied coldly.He looked out the window and refused to explain further.
Xavier was bent on getting to the bottom of it.
“If it isn’t a confidential document, what is it? Why do you seem so nervous? Can I see it?”
He tried to reach for the notebook, but Halston’s glare made him retract his hand.
“This notebook clearly belongs to a girl.It even has a lock, but you picked it…”
Xavier began to murmur.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to him.
“I know.This is a diary, isn’t it? Does it belong to your wife? “Oh my god! Halston, you actually peeked at her diary.That’s so tasteless of you.Do you know it’s illegal to violate someone’s privacy like that? You’re a righteous man—why would you do something so dark? Are you so in love with her that you’ve lost all sense of reason?”
“Shut up!”
Halston frowned unhappily.He felt the urge to sew Xavier’s lips together.
“How could you do something so tasteless on your own? Show it to me too.I’ll be your partner-in- crime.When we see your wife, I’ll keep it a secret for you!”
“It’s not a diary.Countless people have seen it.You don’t have to keep it a secret for me,” Halston said coldly.
“If it’s not a confidential document, and it’s not a diary, what is it?” Xavier was extremely curious.He continued to beg Halston.
“Come on, Halston.Show it to me.If other people can see it, why can’t I? Aren’t good things meant to be shared? Let me see it!”
Halston turned to look at Xavier.
“Do you really want to see it? “Yes!”
“Promise me something.”
“What is it?”
“I’ll tell you after you read it.”
Halston handed the diary to Xavier.
Xavier quickly flipped through it.
“Damn.This male lead is such a jerk.What’s wrong with his brain? Why can’t he just die?”
“Woah! It’s so sweet.They already have a baby!”
“They kissed.They kissed.They finally kissed!”
Xavier couldn’t stop reading the novel.He was completely immersed in the story.He was sometimes happy, sometimes angry, and other times like a teenage boy whose heart would flutter.
The emotions Xavier felt were equally intense as those of Halston! “Huh.Is that all?”
Xavier flipped through the notebook and began complaining loudly while thumping his chest.
“It’s getting to the fun part.Why did it stop here? Who is the author? We should have that person whipped in public!”
Halston subconsciously moved a little further away for fear that Xavier might accidentally hit him.Xavier read the novel multiple times before he realized something.
“Halston, are the male and female leads actually you and your wife?” Halston rolled his eyes at Xavier.
“Who else could they be?”
“Did she write this? Are the things she wrote all true?”
“Half of it?!” Halston replied.
“Although not all details were accurate, her description of how they treated each other in the novel was nearly identical to how their marriage went in real life.Xavier seemed shocked.He held the notebook as if he was holding a precious treasure.
“I never knew your wife was this good at writing! I was close to tears when I read it.”
Halston raised his brows as if he was the one receiving the compliment.
“I told you.She’s an academic genius.She’s good in both art and science.”
“Amazing! I’m impressed!” Xavier sighed.
“Halston, you shouldn’t have gotten divorced.Letting your wife go is like dangling a juicy piece of steak in front of hungry wolves.Many men out there are lining up for her!” Halston sneered.
“Not everyone can tame her.Do you think she’s an easy target?”
