Chapter 1043 - Two Men Struggle

At this moment, a soft cough broke the calm.

Erika and Lina looked back at the same time and saw the man stopped outside the pavilion, Lina quickly got up. "Miss, you embroider first, I need to be behind for a bit." 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

After Lina left, Samuel slightly pursed his lips, walked to the pavilion.

He looked at the embroidery on Erika's hand, and said to break the silence. "That person is right, you really are. embroidered very well."

Erika smiled nonchalantly, and continued the weaving motion in her hands. "Since when did you know about embroidery?"

Samuel sat down and looked up at his brows, as gentle and peaceful as ever.

He blinked, and said. "I don't understand the art of embroidery, but as long as you embroider it, it must be very good!"

A flash of love comes, which surprises Erika a little.

She inserts the needle into the embroidered satin at will, raising her eyes to meet Samuel's. "Why are you here, what's wrong?"

Erika remained gentle, but there was a visible distance in her words.

Today, his attitude towards Samuel was no different from anyone else's.

Samuel sighed silently and bluntly said. "Erika, how can you forgive me?"

Erika smiled slightly. "Wasn't what I said earlier clear enough? Between the two of us, there is no longer any chance. Why are you so entangled?"

"It's because of Donny?"

Samuel asked in a difficult tone, looking directly at Erika, feeling displeased in his heart.

Erika shook her head calmly. "Why do you always put the two of us above other people's heads? you and I have always been irrelevant to outsiders."

Hearing this answer didn't make Samuel a little happy, but rather disappointed.

He found that he didn't understand Erika at all.

This seemingly gentle woman had a hard heart.

Samuel lowered his eyes, his Adam's apple kept rolling. "If this is the case, why don't you give me opportunity?"

At this time, Erika didn't speak.

Seeing Samuel's calm face, she put the embroidery on the table, and said for a while. "Brother Samuel, the opportunity you want is just an excuse for you to redeem your dignity. You don't have me in your heart, even if we do it again, it's just a strange wishful thinking. All of that doesn't make sense, doesn't it?"

"Of course not!" Samuel immediately denied the statement. "Erika, if my heart doesn't have you, why have I stayed in Jakarta all this time? I've made a big mistake before. I don't know you well and it's my fault. You can blame me or hate me, but I did all this not to save my dignity! I did all this to get you back!"

Samuel rarely spoke his heart.

To him, he wanted to chase this woman back completely from his deepest desires.

At this moment, Erika chuckled. "If you had told me these things a few months earlier, probably nothing would have happened by now. But, Brother Samuel, it's too late! Since I left the Hiroshi family's house, from that day on, I never planned to come back again."

When the words fell, she stood up, took the embroidered utensil off the table, looked at the back of her rough skinned hand, and sighed. "Now, I just want to live a peaceful and boring life. I'm really tired after working in the Hiroshi family. after such a long time!"

Erika turned in front of Samuel without any reluctance.

Maybe a heart that has been hurt for too long is almost numb.

So a few sweet words and confessions could no longer shake his mind.

After half your life wasted, at least from now on he should live for himself.

Samuel remained seated in the pavilion, staring at Erika's back as she walked across the grassy path to leave, her eyes lonely.

He deserved it and was abandoned by Erika, but… this time he wasn't going to give up so easily.

...

Not long after, when Erika walked through the grassy path and passed the flowerbed, Donny, who was still standing in the same place.

Erika was a little surprised, she didn't know how long she had been standing there and what she heard.

"Are you done talking?" He withdrew in surprise, and said warmly.

Donny nodded, glanced across the grassy street, and looked at Samuel in the pavilion. "Sorry, I wanted to come look for you, but I overheard your conversation."

Erika's eyes were calm, and it didn't matter if she heard it.

The two of them walked side by side again along the road. Donny looked hesitating again and again, the conversation between Gilbert and himself kept echoing in his mind.

A few seconds later, he mustered up the courage and grabbed Erika's wrist. "Erika, can we talk?"

The embroidered utensil in Erika's hand fell to the ground from her movement.

Donny quickly bent down to pick it up, looked at the embroidered utensil, and rubbed it twice. "I actually wanted to tell you a few things..."

"It's okay -What, we should talk in the tea room."

Erika is very smart. Donny had been of great help lately, and he couldn't ignore his efforts even if he was justified.

However, there are some things that really need to be clarified!

A few minutes later, the two of them sat in the tea room. Erika holds the tea holder skillfully and makes tea. He smiled and asked. "Why aren't you talking?"

Donny watched him make tea and mumbled. "Do you know what your father just said to me?"

Erika raised her eyes, waiting for him to continue.

After seeing this, Donny licked the corner of his lower lip and looked back at Erika with serious and attentive eyes. "Uncle said that he would feel relieved if you were by my side."

When he finished speaking, Donny condensed his face for a moment, trying to see the slight change in Erika's expression.

Too bad, the woman across from him just pursed her lips elegantly and jokingly. very playful!"

This sentence completely crushed Donny's hopes.

His Adam's apple continued to roll, but he refused to give up and asked. "Erika, is it really that hard to accept this... me? That man doesn't love you and has hurt your heart, can't you forget him?"

Facing Donny's question, Erika's tea-making actions slowed down."Has our recent friendship caused you to misunderstand something?"

Remembering their time together, Erika admits that she doesn't leave any feelings for him.

He behaved politely and spoke generously. In his heart, Donny was a rare friend in his life.

While there was a lot of trouble dealing with Merry's business, there were many ways to return this favor, and it didn't need to be love.

After all, he had just ended the relationship, how could he possibly open his heart so quickly.

At this moment, when Donny heard his question, he couldn't help but laugh to himself. "Looks like we need to straighten things out. Erika, actually I have heard all the conversations between you and Samuel just now.

You said that you wouldn't take it back didn't you? Why don't you try to have a relationship with me? You know that I've loved you since I was a kid and I haven't been married for a long time.

I dare not say that I have been waiting for you all this time, but after you returned to Jakarta, I did have the idea of ??proposing to you for marriage. Since he's not good enough for you, why not try to accept me? What he can't do for you, I can do!"
