Better Life Without You. novel Chapter 151

It was a good thing that she was in a dark restaurant.

Because of the darkness, she didn't have to face his words in embarrassment.

Seeing that Laura did not say anything, William Walton raised his eyebrow: "You, are always avoiding questions, but there are some things, you can't solve them by escaping, don't you understand the logic?"

"Then... Let me ask you a question. "

"Ask away."

"Do you love me?"

William Walton laughed, "I love you more and more."

"Then... To you, who is more important between Carol Wright and me? "

Her question silenced him.

"You want to compare with her?"

"Is this hard to choose?"

William Walton said in a low voice after a long while. "Of course, it's because you're important to me."

"William Walton, the reason why you hesitated earlier was because you weren't sure who was more important between us. After weighing the pros and cons, you felt that Carol Wright had Jack, which was why you said, I'm more important, right?"

"Laura, everyone has a past. It is wrong for one to grasp the past of others while facing the future."

"That's right, I have one too. Moreover, my past isn't that beautiful. Therefore, I won't give up on my feelings of gratitude and suppression to a man who hesitates when making a choice between me and another woman.

What I want, is not because of attraction, even a little bit of love, even in the future will be more love. I don't want to be uncertain, I'm a... I don't feel safe with men. In other words, I don't trust them.

Because I don't believe them enough, when I saw Avery Harris betraying me, I felt pain and sadness. However, I didn't fight with Avery Harris and Elsie Clark, but instead, I digested the pain by myself, not giving Avery Harris any chance to explain himself, and directly broke up with him. He said I was determined, but only I knew that I was so determined because he, who had once been able to give me a sense of security, had destroyed it.

I know that I didn't do well in terms of emotions, but the shadow John Anderson brought me was too scary. You probably wouldn't understand these things. I can only tell you that if it weren't for the fact that all the uneasiness and fear in my heart had been released, even if I knew that I was in love with someone, I wouldn't have taken the next step so easily.

This is why even though I can feel your goodness but I have never responded to you in a positive manner. Not because you weren't good enough, and not because you had someone else in your heart. It's because there was someone else in your heart and you will never be able to forget her completely. This kind of you, makes me feel insecure.

William Walton, everyone is selfish, I am more selfish. Yesterday, you said that I did not know how to love myself, but you were wrong, I love myself a lot. Because I love myself, so I won't easily give myself to any man, because I'm too afraid of facing the uncertainty of the future. I'm afraid that one day, I'll give you my heart, and you'll shatter it. "

After she finished speaking, William Walton was silent for a long time.

He knew that she had always felt no sense of security, but he never thought that the fear in her heart would be this deep ...

He looked at her in the darkness, and the light suddenly came on.

She closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she had already adapted to the light.

She looked at him and slowly put down her knife and fork. "So, just now, I made the choice that I couldn't make. I will do it now."

She got up, picked up her bag, and left.

William Walton came back a little late.

Laura, half-sitting on the bed, she stared at the door.

After a long while, there was no sound coming from the door. It seemed that William Walton had returned to his room.

Presumably ... He must be angry.

The night of early November was already rather cold.

She went to the washroom to wash her face. When she came out of the washroom, the light in the corridor suddenly flickered, making her nervous.

In the past, Judy often tell her the legendary ghost stories of the University in her dorms.

The most talked about was also the most famous topic in the school... There was no doubt that the female teacher in red from twenty years ago had disappeared in the middle of the night at the office building.

Previously, when she was telling the story, she had taken it as a joke.

But now ... In the corridor of the office building.

Judy's voice recalled in her head at the time.

"Twenty years ago, there was a female teacher who was in a relationship with her student. After she was discovered by the school, the male student, in order to gain a good future, refused to admit it. Instead, it was the teacher who seduced him. In that time of simplicity, the female teacher could not bear the eyes of the crowd and hanged herself in her office on a dark, windy night, dressed in red.

It was said that if a person who was hanged at 12 o'clock happened to be wearing red, then he would become a malicious spirit. After this teacher had died, she had turned into an evil spirit that harassed that male classmate every night. In the end, that male classmate, due to a mental illness, had no choice but to ruin his future and quit school.

However, since then, there were many teachers who had worked overtime. They had seen this reddish shadow in the corridor, as well as her clattering ... The sound of leather shoes. So... In the University Teacher's Office Building, there is a tradition, which is not to work overtime in the office. "

She could not help but shiver and muttered: "Judy, you stinking girl, you only know how to make up scary stories."

She took a deep breath and headed for the office door.

However, right at this moment ... The sound of footsteps came from the stairs.

Her heart tightened, and for some reason, she felt all the hair on her body standing up.

She ran into the office and locked the door.
