Affectionate Affection Tales
"Why?" I finally found my weak voice, looking at the woman, who seemed familiar and unfamiliar, both to me.
"Why? Is this what you should ask me, Jordan? If not for you, why would Victor die so miserably in prison without any close family crying for him?"
I was taken aback by hearing what Emily said. Victor?
"Emily he kidnapped you back then to harm you-"
"SHUT UP!! IT WAS JUST A LITTLE FIGHT BETWEEN US AND NOTHING ELSE. WHY DID YOU INJURE HIM AND REPORT HIM? DO YOU KNOW HOW MISERABLE HIS LIFE HAS BEEN IN THESE PAST SIX YEARS? HE DIED LAST WEEK BECAUSE OF AN ILLNESS, AND YOU ARE THE REASON BEHIND HIS DEATH AND HARD LIFE, JORDAN? WHO ASKED YOU TO DO THOSE THINGS?"
So this is how she saw me. Haha!
How laughable! Cough.
She didn't know, but Victor was going to harm her for real. He was going to sell her to some old man and later take away her heart, but my good intentions caused me to lose my family members and now my life.
Cough!! Cough!!
"You should go and redeem for your sins with your life"
Emily looked at me with cold sinister eyes and stabbed the knife into my heart.
I don't know why, but I am all numb now. Maybe this is what I should get to save her from the danger that was nothing but a quarrel between them.
This one action of mine six years ago took my family away from me. My mother died in a car accident, my father died from heart failure and my sister was kidnapped away and was never found.
It turns out everything was done by Emily just to avenge her first love, Victor.
The cold feeling of metal digging deeper and deeper into my heart gives me a shiver, and slowly, I lose consciousness.
Sinking into deep sleep.
I regret
Regret that I extended a helping hand towards her and ruined my whole life with my family members.
.
"Haa"
"Sir, are you alright?"
"Huh?"
My vision was a little blurry as I opened my eyes and looked around. My heart was still beating very fast. I put my hand on my heart.
No injury and nothing at all.
"Sir?"
Hearing the sound, I looked up only to find my assistant looking at me with a little worried face.
"What's the matter?" I finally found my voice, calmed down my heart and asked.
Wasn't I dead just now after getting stabbed by Emily? What am I doing here all fine without any injuries on my body?
"You came here to take a nap, but no matter how I called you, you would not awake, which makes me a little worried. Good that you are fine. I need to call 120 and ask them not to come. We can't occupy public resources like this. Wait for me to make a call instantly Sir." Jordan's assistant hurriedly said and rushed to the corner to make a call.
What's going on?
Ting
Jordan looked at the lit-up screen of his phone placed on the table only to be stunned seeing the bold numbers of the year on the display.
How could this be? I am back six years ago before the tragedy of my life.
Buzz,
Nolan, my only friend is calling me. I vaguely remember that he also called me before Emily's kidnapping.
I picked up the call, and my emotions had already calmed down a lot after grasping the situation.
"Hello"
"Jordan, look at the picture I have sent you. Emily is flirting with that moron Victor. She doesn't care at all about you and your feelings. Why are you still insisting on hanging onto her?"
Nolan said excitedly, and I could not help but chuckle hearing his familiar voice again. He would have shaken me, holding my tie, if he was in front of me.
In my past life, he was framed for keeping college girls under house arrest and torturing them, making their nude videos and sending them to his business partners' beds. In the end, he lost his reputation; his engagement was broken; his mother died from a heart attack; his company plummeted because the secrets got leaked, and later, Nolan jumped out of his company after losing his father too.
In the end, it was I who brought Nolan to this end; otherwise, he would not have turned out to be like that.
This time, I must protect my family, friends and my business.
"Say something. You are not getting sad and shedding tears over her, are you? Come on, Jordan, I know you are one lady man, a loyal man after 1000 years but you can't give away your love and loyalty to someone like Emily who has no sense of awareness." Nolan holds his hair, irritated visibility.
"You are right" I suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
"My love and loyalty shouldn't be wasted just like this."
"MY GOD!! You finally got some brain functions in the right proportion. Now don't go and look for her. Let her run and hit the wall before she can see the reality"
"Hm. I won't be looking after her anymore."
"Sir, the meeting...do we still need to be there"
I slightly nodded at my assistant before saying a few more words and hanging up the call with Nolan.
The kidnapping incident will be this evening and there are still 2 hours for that to happen.
I was walking out of the restaurant after my meeting when I happened to see Emily getting dragged into the van by four people. I immediately run after her to save her.
I was alone there and they were more than ten. I heard Victor talking about selling her to get some capital for his business and later selling the crucial organs to generate money.
I was furious and rushed forward to beat him and his men without waiting for the rescue team I connected on my way here.
Victor was taken away by the police, and Emily was safely rescued but I ended up in the hospital with my leg fractured and with an arm injury.
Now I think about it, I was blind. Emily did not show up for once during my recuperation. It was not until I was getting discharged that she came to see me. She cried and said how wrong she had judged him back then and she was sorry for her behaviour. I was more than willing to believe her and forgive her to live well with her.
Thinking of my past self, I could not help but laugh bitterly. My past self deserved to die by getting stabbed in the heart, but what was the fault of my parents and Nolan?
"Let's start the discussion, everyone. The meal is on me so don't back away from ordering whatever you all want. I also got 60-year-old red wine for you all," I walked in and said, looking towards the three men in the room.
This time, I let her solve her love quarrel with her first love without my intervention.
I will sincerely bless them with a good life without me being a third wheel.
