Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant

Chapter 104 It Was All My Fault, Let’s Start Over

Riley looked at his deep stares, it was filled with tenderness, unfamiliar yet irresistible!

When she finally decided to end this meaningless marriage, he confessed his love to her!

She removed her hand from his, “Mr George, please stop the joke! I’m not a teenager and have way

past the age for these sweet words.”

Euan was a little angry but he remained calm. He knew there was a lot of misunderstanding between

them, “I am not joking, I am serious and vow to take responsibility for my words.”

Riley stared at his serious face for a while. “That won’t be necessary, Mr George can confess your love

to someone else. I don’t love you anymore! Don’t you get it?”

“Bullshit!”Euan lost his calm, “You don’t love me any more? Look at me and say it to my face!”

Riley tried hard to control her emotion and tried to ignore what Anika had said, but she couldn’t! Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Riley lowered her head, she looked at the plate and said, “I don’t want to look at you ever again, let go

of my hand.”

“I won’t let go, you are mine, don’t you ever think about going elsewhere.” He grabbed her tightly and

his tone was filled with anger, “You wouldn’t have invited me to your place and cooked for me if you

don’t care, won’t you?”

“I …”

“You wouldn’t have remembered my favourite dishes if you don’t care, won’t you?”

Riley was speechless. “I … Those were simple and cheap ingredient!”

Nonsense!

Euan didn’t know how to respond to her ridiculous excuse. He let loose of his hand and said with a

gentle tone, “Dr Riley, you are a smart woman, can’t you see I am trying so hard because I want to be

with you?”

His confession struck Riley’s heart like an invisible sword! She tried so hard to hold her tears back.

Was fate playing a joke on her?

I love you…

'You are no match to my son!You worth nothing!'

I want to be with you.

'If you refused to file for divorce, he will be surrounded with family scandal!'

Why!!

The two voices kept repeating in Riley’s mind, both were like sharp knives, dissected her into pieces!

“I’m tired, exhausted. I’ve had enough for the past three years, it’s time to end this.”

Euan was speechless, it was indeed true, he had not been a proper husband for the past three years.

He had done things that hurt her. But all he ever wanted now was to love and cherish her for the rest of

his life.

“Give me some time, I will redeem my mistake.” He grabbed as tight as he could as if he would lose her

forever if he didn’t.

He didn’t want to, no, he was afraid to lose her!

Riley couldn’t hold her tears any longer…

Again, she cried for him!

Euan became even more nervous when Riley started crying, “Riley… What do you want? I can give

you anything.”

Riley’s heart had already broken in half, “Please give me my freedom, Euan.”

She closed her eyes and tears kept rolling down her cheeks.

Within a week! If she refused to divorce, Anika would destroy Euan. Even if she was willing to help him

again, but scandal remained for life.

She could never let the man she loved being involved in such a scandal!

She could shoulder all the darkness.

Because she loved him.

Euan felt helpless, he felt like a devil who made the woman he loved in pain!

He tried to wipe away her tears, but Riley shook her head and moved away from his hand.

Sadness flew across his heart when she let his hand landed in the air.

“Do you really… don’t love me anymore?” He asked, sadly.

Three years! Never once that he stood by her side, it was her one-sided love that gave her the strength

to remained strong!

If she didn’t love him, who did?

“I’ve made myself very clear.”

The moment Euan loosen his hand, Riley felt as if she had lost this man forever!

She was exhausted, in pain, hopeless and helpless.

Euan walked over from the other side of the table, the dinner had stopped.

He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and frowned, “Both of us need to calm down. It was all

my fault, let’s forget about the past and start over.”

She shook herself off him. “Scars can never heal. Perhaps you, Mr George can easily forget, but I

don’t.”

“Let’s have a peaceful split, shall we?” she said weakly.

She had been thinking about divorce, but it was the meeting with Anika that had completely taken her

down, she had collapsed.

She couldn’t hold it anymore.

“I said, I disagree!”

Riley lowered her head and cried, “Since when did Euan George become clingy? Furthermore, even if

you refused to sign the paper, we have lived separately for a while and the court will announce our

divorce automatically.”

Euan pushed the dinner table violently soon as she finished. Dishes and glasses were all over the

place! He stepped on the broken pieces and hugged her. “Living separately means no sexual life, do

you want to force me?”

Memories in the house flashed back before her, she stared at him coldly, “Let go of me! Get out of my

house!”

She tried to free herself and ordered him to leave.

“Riley, I will never let you leave, not today, not ever.” His hug became gentler, he wrapped his arms

around her waist.

Riley laughed bitterly, “I said get out of here, this is my home, please get out.”

“You should’ve known that I won’t leave easily when you invited me here.” She felt his warm breaths on

her hair and skin.

She couldn’t control her sadness, tears filled her eyes, “Alright if you won’t leave, I will!”

She was crazy! Crazy enough to had invited him over and cooked him dinner. She was delusional with

the thought that it would be a peaceful separation.

Riley Watson, what an idiot!

Bang!

Riley walked out and slammed the door behind her!

Euan was left frozen alone in her home, he seemed extra lonely under the moonlight that shined

through the window.

She disappeared from his arms, emptiness and loneliness filled his heart as if he had lost the entire

world.

He looked at the gift on the table and suddenly realized the reason why she was angry. This must be

the same necklace Lydia had, but it wasn’t from him.

“Tell Lydia Saunders to never step a foot into YJ Villa again,” Euan ordered Elijah coldly.

“Yes!”

Euan was worried about Riley, it was dangerous to drive with unstable emotion, “She had just left,

wouldn’t have gone far, follow her.”

He had completely fallen in love with her.

She had become the love of his life, it was way beyond a piece of paper to decide.

She left home in an instant and threw herself into her car. She didn’t know where she was headed but

kept driving. In the end, she let herself loose and cried herself out.

She wouldn’t have endured for three years if she wasn’t in love with Euan.

She reached for her mobile and turned it on.

After a long while, she sent a text to Anika, “We will be divorced, don’t worry.”

Riley was exhausted, she had no energy left to even drive.

She stopped under a shady lane, sat against the seat to empty her mind.

Although it is said that marriage is the tomb of love, but had loved ever existed between Euan and her

all those years?

Tears rolled down her eyes, the dim light from the street lamp shined on the windshield, flashed on her.

With her eyes filled with tears, she couldn’t see the road ahead, and couldn’t turn back.

Riley didn’t realize that Euan had been following her from behind since she left home.

Elijah did not dare to look at his boss. The atmosphere in the car was extremely awkward, he kept

driving silently.

What was wrong with him? He was in such a good mood before, he even stopped by at Kerry’s to

change, what had a dinner meal done to him?

Euan George looked only in one direction, the image of Riley crying kept flashing back in his mind.

He never realized how powerful her tears were, powerful enough to had his heart torn apart.

He loved her, this voice is getting stronger and firmer.

He could not lose her, could not live without her.

He had finally realized his true feeling.

Mobile buzzed.

Riley’s mobile rang. She didn’t plan to answer at first but the displayed name “Hendrix” made her

nervous.

Why would he call? Was he ordered by Euan?

“Hello?”

Hendrix seemed delighted, “Riley, are you around FH Avenue? I thought I saw your car, was that you?”

Riley did not know which direction she was headed to, but now she realized she had stopped at the

side of FH Avenue. Not far from here was a street filled with many bars, many came to enjoy clubbing

and wild nightlife.

Colourful lights lightened the street and made it looked like the most luxurious street in the area.

“Yes, it was me”. Riley took a breath that mimicked the symptom of a cold.

There was loud music at Hendrix’s end, he overheard Riley’s nasal tone and laughed, “Come over

Riley, let me buy you drinks, it’s a tremendous boring life to be a doctor, I’m sure you need to loosen up

and relax, I promise I won’t tell Euan!”

Riley frowned, she did not like bars but she felt like having a few glasses tonight to numb the pain.

“It’s alright, I’m heading home, you go ahead and enjoy.”

“Come on, Riley, you are here once in a blue moon, come join us! I’ll go pick you up, it’s not far from

here. Five minutes, stay put!”
