Chapter 23
Joyce continued speaking to herself.
agreement, we would never have been together in this lifetime. I would have had a life of my own.”
“If it weren’t for that ap
Zander stared at her blankly, a bitter feeling surged up in his heart, almost drowning him.
He had countless words stuck in his throat, but in the end, he said nothing because he knew deep down that the mistake had already been made, and saying more would be of no use
In the end, I silently watched as Joyce opened the car door and got out
However, just as she was about to open the door, a strong light shone on her.
At the same time, a piercing brake sound and Zander’s exclamation came
“Joyce! Be careful!”
The tragedy occurred in an instant.
The initiator was Shayla, and at this moment, she had been engulfed by anger, losing her rationality
She drove towards Joyce recklessly.
However, Zander quickly pushed Joyce aside, causing her to fall to the ground and sustain minor injuries. Zander, however, lost his legs under Shayla’s madness and lay in the intensive care unit for two months. After learning about this, Ronald directly sent Shayla to prison, and it was unknown when she would be released. During her hospitalization, Joyce also visited Zander a few times, after all, he had saved her lite.
Looking at the person covered in tubes all over their body, her expression was complex.
In the end, Zander understood what love was, but it was already too late.
Due to the car accident, her originally planned trip back to Faymont had to be postponed.
Afterwards, she stayed with the Floyd family for recuperation until Zander woke up
After learning that Shayla had caused his lifelong disability, Zander, on the contrary, remained unusually calm.
That day, Joyce found a necklace while packing her luggage
She remembered. This was the gift Zander gave her when he proposed.
At the same time, it was also the necklace she had retrieved from the waves five years ago when she pursued Zander.
The necklace, forgotten in a corner for five years without maintenance, had become rusty and dull, looking dark and unattractive.
She caressed the necklace, feeling that it might be the perfect answer to Zander’s question in the car.
Whether it was during the pursuit of him or in the three years of their marriage that followed, she was always the one giving, while Zander was just enjoying
Therefore, regardless of whether those things happened or not, without his involvement, their relationship could never last.
Some things were wrong from the very beginning
She had someone return the necklace to Zander.
After receiving the necklace, Zander remained silent for a long time.
He had never given Joyce a gift, and the only piece of jewelry he had bought was given to Elianna.
This necklace was actually the only thing he gave to Joyce.
In ruins, just like their relationship.
One of his good friends, who used to play with him in the past, suddenly mentioned when seeing this necklace, “Hey, isn’t this the one we used to bet with back in the day?”
That day, a few young gentlemen had nothing to do and made a bet on who dared to jump into the sea and find this necklace. The winner would be given the bidding project.
In fact, they tied the necklace with fishing line, but the sea was rough, and the waves were dangerous, so no one dared to try
And when Joyce learned about this matter, she simply asked them calmly if they were serious
After receiving the guarantee, she flipped over the railing without hesitation.
The waves instantly engulfed her, and Zander’s hand instantly clenched into a list
