Chapter 1592
Wayne had heard Erica’s name once or twice from Rosalynn.
What happened to her? Wayne asked.
Jacob ran his fingers through his hair. “She’s a real looker, sexy figure, big expressive eyes. We loved each other fiercely when we were young, but also, we broke up just as passionately because we were young.”
Wayne went quiet, but Jacob didn’t mind.
“Wayne, I’m actually quite envious of you. After all you’ve been through, you ended up marrying the woman you love, raising your kids together, living happily as a family Jacob paused, a lump in his throat, “I want that too.”
“If you want it, why not go for it? Is it that hard? Wayne asked.
Jacob looked at him, then burst out laughing: “You’ve lost your memory so your thinking has become purer. If it were the old you, you wouldn’t tell me to go after it. You’d tell me to weigh the pros and cons.”
“You can weigh the pros and cons too,” Wayne responded.
“From what I see now, there are only cons, no pros for Erica.”
Jacob and Wayne were different.
The Strand family had always been close-knit
He couldn’t completely cut ties with his family for Erica after marriage.
But if he kept in contact, given his family’s prejudice against Erica, she would suffer a lot.
Wayne thought for a while.
“Have you asked Erica what she thinks?”
Jacob was silent for a moment, then shook his head: “We never officially got back together after breaking up when we were young. During the time you were in trouble, my mom had a huge argument with her.”
Jacob paused, his expression growing fretful: “My mom was wrong, but Erica was no pushover. She kept yelling at my mom, so I blew up at her…”
Wayne furrowed his brows.
“Then she left and hasn’t come back since.”
“Maybe you should let her go.” Wayne thought for a moment, he tried to phrase it more delicately, but it came out blunt.
Jacob was taken aback, staring at Wayne: “Why do I feel like you’re really annoyed with me?”
Wayne nodded: “Yes.”
Jacob didn’t get angry, instead he laughed speechlessly: “Look at what you’ve done in the past and you have the nerve to be annoyed with me? Rosalynn is so forgiving, otherwise you might still be single and lonely.”
“Even though I’ve lost my memory, one thing I’m certain of is that if she has a conflict with someone, no matter who they are or who’s right or wrong, I’ll protect her unwaveringly,” Wayne stated firmly.
Jacob was slightly taken aback.
He remembered, Wayne did exactly that.
Except when Rosalynn first wanted to leave Wayne, Wayne deliberately made things difficult for Rosalynn over the data error
But behind the scenes, Wayne was also trying to make amends for Rosalynn.
Rosalynn was actually more capable than he imagined, and she could handle problems on her own.
“But that’s my mom Jacob looked really upset.
“So, you should let her go Wayne repeated seriously.
Jacob furrowed his brows, pretending to check the time: “I can’t believe I spent so much time chatting with you, I have some things to take care of at my company, I’ll go first.”
He stood up.
Wayne nodded slightly, recognizing Jacob’s evasion.
Jacob headed straight for the door
At the door, he turned back: “I can’t let go. It’s been over a decade, I really can’t let go
“It’s been over a decade, since you can’t let go and you don’t dare to accept what’s already happened, what else is there to talk about?” Wayne responded Jacob’s pupils twitched violently
Then he turned around and left without a word, clenching his fists tightly
Wayne watched him go.
Then he pulled out his phone to call Rosalynn.
