Her heart was only as dead as ashes because Martin Weiss had hurt her too deeply!
Chase Harper was thinking about it when he heard a staff member shouting at the shop’s entrance, “Can I help you, Sir?”
He looked up and instantly froze when he saw the tall figure entering the shop.
‘That’s… Martin Weiss!‘
Even after so many years, Chase Harper could still recognize him at a glance. After all, a man with such good looks was unforgettable.
Martin Weiss walked up to Chase Harper and looked coldly at the man in front of him. His chest was filled with gloom, and he felt a pricking sensation as he thought of Kyla and Chase Harper walking out of the market while talking and laughing.
He was a little breathless. It felt as if many needles were stabbing his chest, making him uncomfortable.
‘Am I jealous… I must be jealous!
‘She can eat with this man and talk and laugh with him but can’t bear to spare me a minute. It’s as if she hates every minute she spends with me.‘
“What can I do for you, Mr. Weiss?” asked Chase Harper.
Martin Weiss looked at him coldly. “You still remember me.‘
“I’m afraid it’s hard not to forget someone like you, Mr. Weiss,” replied Chase Harper.
“How about going out for a chat, then? After all, this is not an appropriate place to talk,” said Martin Weiss.
Chase Harper pondered for a moment and said, “Okay. Let’s go out for a chat. There’s a restaurant next to the market with a private room where we can chat.”
Martin Weiss said nothing but turned around and walked out of the store. Chase Harper followed suit.
They went to the private room of a nearby restaurant and ordered two cups of tea.
Chase Harper looked at the man in front of him. He was dressed in a suit and tie with his black hair and bangs combed back, revealing his full forehead. His cold face and delicate features showed an air of nobility. There was something elegant abouthim even though he was just sitting there.
Such a man could easily attract many women’s attention. That was how Kyla fell for him.
“I wonder what you want to talk to me about, Mr. Weiss,” said Chase Harper.
Martin Weiss chuckled. “Besides Kyla, do you think there’s anything else for us to talk about?”
Chase Harper laughed at himself at this. “You’re right. So are you here to talk to me about Kyla?”
When the word ‘Kyla‘ came out from Chase Harper’s mouth, Martin Weiss frowned and found it particularly irritating.
“You can’t call her name like that!” Martin Weiss said in a cold voice.
Chase Harper said calmly, “Kyla never said I can’t call her that, so I don’t think there’s anything wrong. But Mr.
Weiss, who are you to think I can’t call her that?”
Martin Weiss frowned even more and sneered. “What’s the matter? Do you want to be with her?”
Chase Harper said, “It’s none of your business whether I want to be with her, Mr. Weiss. I’m single, and she’s single.
It’s up to me and her whether we want to be with each other.”
Martin Weiss’s expression changed slightly. Kyla had said something similar. She said whether or not she got together with Chase Harper was up to her.
For a moment, it was as if he had been cast aside from them.
Martin Weiss suddenly got up and grabbed Chase Harper’s collar. “I’m telling you, you can forget about being with Kyla!”
“Is it because you love her?” asked Chase Harper.
Martin Weiss’s face was cold as he pursed his lips without saying a word.
“If you love her, why make her live such a hard life? Don’t you know how tiring it is for a woman to run a small store while looking after an elderly mother and a small child?” asked Chase Harper.
Martin Weiss’s face became more gloomy, and his fingers on Chase Harper’s collar clenched.
He understood what Chase Harper said, but…
“Even if it’s not me, someone else will notice a good woman like Kyla. Are you going to ‘talk‘ to everybody like this?”
added Chase Harper.
Martin Weiss instantly pushed Chase Harper away. “What do you know? You know nothing!”
Chase Harper awkwardly knocked down a chair and fell to the floor.
He staggered to his feet and looked at him calmly. “I know nothing, but at least I know I should make the woman I love happy.”
With that said, Chase Harper fixed his clothes. “I think I’ve figured out why you’re here today, Mr. Weiss. You must have figured out where I stand too. Whatever happens between Kyla and me, we don’t need your permission.”
With that said, Chase Harper walked out of the private room.
He knew Martin Weiss was a high and mighty heir, while he was only a small shop owner and an ordinary person in tMason Swansonty. If Martin Weiss wanted to do anything to him, there was no room for him to resist.
Perhaps he should immediately distance himself from Kyla and promise not to have anything to do with her again. It was probably the most sensible way to save himself.
However, he said what he said anyway. Perhaps it was because he did not want to be a coward anymore. His wife had cheated on him with his best friend. When he saw the two of them making out, he said nothing but left cowardly.
His cowardice that time had become his trauma. He did nothing wrong, but he was like a loser.
He did not want himself to experience another trauma. He did not want to look back on this and think he did not behave like a f*cking man!
Led by Mrs. Corbyn, Nelson Corbyn went to the taekwondo training institution after school to learn taekwondo.
Kyla found the training institution for her son after finding out her son was often bullied at school. Her son could exercise and at the same time, gain the ability to protect himself.
She could not give her son much, so this was all she could do for him.
Nelson also put in the effort to learn. He knew his mother worked hard to pay for his fees here. He also knew that he could only better protect himself, his mother, and his grandmother when he was stronger.
However, he unexpectedly met a few classmates who previously bullied him in school at the taekwondo training institute.
They were in different classes, so they did not run into each other the first few times.
Several of them surrounded him.
“I wondered why you look so familiar. It turned out it’s you, Nelson Corbyn! You must be proud that you made me quit school!” His eyes were full of malice as he spoke.
“Roy Soto, what do you want?” said Nelson Corbyn as he looked around warily.
They were in the changing room. He had stayed back for training today, so he came in late to change his clothes.
Other than him, the rest seemed to be on Roy Soto’s side.
