Chapter 416


    Once we were far enough, I turned around. Flynn was still there, staring at our backs like an old,


    regretful man.


    We were close to the owner of the pasta restaurant. When he saw us, he weed us earnestly and


    served us the food we ordered.


    Queenie and I sat opposite each other while Andrew sat next to her.


    Andrew ced Queenie’s order before her. She slurped the spaghetti quietly. It looked like she


    was ravenous.


    As she ate, her tears began falling onto the te. She put down the cutlery, took a tissue paper, and


    began sobbing while covering her eyes.


    1 let out a sigh of relief.


    I was d that she cried. I was so afraid that she’d keep those feelings bottled up as that would take a


    toll on her mental health. Now that she had closure, she could finally move on from


    Flynn.


    She needed to cry the pain out. Then, she’d be able to start anew.


    As for Flynn, his wealth and status had inted his ego. He wasn’t worth it.


    And from now on, Flynn and Queenie’s rtionship was officially over.


    After she cried for a while, she resumed eating her spaghetti until the te was empty. Andrew was


    considerate enough to order a second te for Queenie with extra toppings.


    “Eat. This is food therapy.”


    Queenie ate and ate until her eyes were puffy and her face was tear–streaked.


    Then, she sniffled and uttered meekly, “Andrew, that guy was my ex–boyfriend. I used to be in love with


    him. For five years, I lived with him. I’m sorry that you have to see me in this messy state. I don’t


    deserve someone pure like you. Find someone better. Let’s end it here. Let’s not


    talk anymore.”


    Andrew leaned in and asked, “Do you still love him?”


    “No.”


    “If hees to you to reconcile with you, will you say yes? He looks rich. Many women like


    that.”


    “No.”

    “If you could travel back in time, would you still have chosen him?”

    “No.”


    Andrew was ted. A wide grin appeared on his face. “Then all is well. I have no part in your past. I


    hate to see you suffer so much from this toxic rtionship. But now, your future will be mine. It’s mine


    only, and that’s enough.


    Queenie froze just as she reached for another tissue paper. She turned around, confused. It prompted


    Andrew to smile even more indulgently. “You have the purest soul. It is and will be the purest soul in the


    world.


    “So, are you ready, Queenie? Because I’m about to impress you and ask you out. It’s something I’ve


    always wanted to do but was too scared to do.”


    “Why me?” asked Queenie innocently.


    “Back then, you were too bothered by everything. So even though I had the fattest crush on you, I


    didn’t dare to tell you. But now that you’ve let go of the baggage, your heart is ready to ept another


    person. So, I’ll ask you out.


    “I like you. Please give me the chance to spoil you. I swear that if I make you cry, I’ll be banished to


    hell.”


    Queenie then shoved a bite of pasta into his mouth and protested grumpily, “Don’t curse yourself.”


    I watched them bicker with a smile and felt relieved. Queenie had never looked this happy


    since she came here.


    Perhaps at the moment, Queenie wasn’t’in love with Andrew yet. No one knew when she’d be ready to


    ept him. However, she had let go of the past and decided to start anew. It seemed like Andrew’s


    wish woulde true very soon.
