Derek couldn't avoid being kissed by Chloe at the corner of his mouth.

But soon, he reached out and pushed her away. Chloe looked at him in disbelief.

Derek didn't even want to be kissed by her and even pushed her away.

How could he be so heartless?

Derek found out the disappointment in her eyes. He was just acting subconsciously just now. "Chloe, I don't mean to push you but... But please don't do such things in the future.”

Derek never did rude things to women so he apologized quickly this time.

Chloe's eyes turned wet. She was completely desperate to see the man so guilty.

She once thought that there was nothing in the world that could not be salvaged through hard work. But now she realized that the human heart was the most difficult thing to guess.

The man who once said he would pamper her and love her for the rest of his life would also do such a rude thing to avoid her kiss at this moment.

Chloe's eyes suddenly focused on Derek and then she saw something that almost drove her crazy. It was a long hair, hanging on Derek's chest as if it were mocking her arrogance.

Chloe's hair was dyed wine red but that long hair was black.

So it must have been left by another woman.

Jealousy surged up from her chest and almost drowned her.

"Derek, tell me, did you push me away because you fall in love with another woman?"

Chloe wiped away her tears fleetly and stared at the man in front of her.

Derek did not escape from her sight. There was no need for him to fudge his answer at this point. "Yes, Chloe, I don't love you anymore.”

Chloe smiled. She was already a born beauty. But at this moment when she smiled with her reddened eyes, she showed actually breathtaking beauty.

"I get it."

Chloe stood up. "I'm leaving.”

While looking at her leaving so resolutely, Derek suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart. He felt that Chloe now didn't have a stable psychological state.

However, he could not ask her to stay or comfort her. After all, she was hurt because of him.

Derek called Asher. Chloe and Asher had always known each other and he believed that Asher would be able to comfort Chloe well.

Asher found Chloe in a bar.

She, who was usually image-conscious and wouldn't drink any, seemed to be a different person now. She gulped down the wine and was almost drunk. Beside her, there was even a lewd man who wanted to tease her while taking advantage of her state.

Asher wore a black face and chased the evil man away. He pulled Chloe up. "Chloe, wake up." "Wake up? I don't want to wake up. My heart hurts if I come to reality."

Chloe realized that it was Asher, and she muttered to herself.

She only wanted to get drunk and numb herself now and she didn't want to suffer the desperation when she thought of Derek's ruthlessness.

"You know what? He falls in love with someone else and he didn't even want me to take care of him because of that woman. He pushed me away to avoid her suspicion.”

Asher looked at Chloe's fragile appearance and felt sad. He had never seen Chloe so decadent and depraved which made him pity her.

In his heart, a feeling that had been suppressed for long burst out at this moment.

He couldn't help but reach out and pull her into her arms. He comforted her carefully. "In that case, forget him, Chloe. There will be someone who loves you more."

Asher's eyes were filled with love and seriousness as he spoke.

Although he had always liked Chloe, after learning that his good friend was with her, he chose to hide his own love. He couldn't steal his friend's girlfriend so he must hide his affection for the woman of his good friend.

He suppressed his emotions for so long that he was almost hypnotized by himself and forgot about the love.

However, when he saw Chloe was so fragile and needed protection now, the feelings that had been hidden in his heart could not be suppressed anymore.

Although the Floreses was not that eminent as the Xaviers, it was also an established family. Asher was also the target of many women but he had never accepted their pursuit and had always been single.

Now that Derek was so determined to not be with Chloe, he might have the chance to be with her. "But I only want him. I only want Derek.”

Chloe grabbed Asher's hand. "Asher, help me, please. I don't want to break up with Derek. I know I'm wrong. I..."

With the influence of alcohol, Chloe said with tears streaming down her face. She never showed such a fragile look before as she was always a tough woman.

Asher felt as if a knife was being twisted in his heart and he wished he was the one who was suffering now. How could he look at Chloe in such pain?

"Asher, help me, help me get him back...”

Chloe grabbed Asher as if she found the last straw and forced him to give her a promise.

Asher's eyes dimmed. After all, he couldn't resist Chloe's distressed look. "I'll help you, Chloe. I'll help you."

"That's great. I knew you were my best friend..."

Hearing this, Chloe smiled and she gradually fainted as the alcohol came into play. Asher carried her out but his heart was filled with bitterness.

He understood Chloe's character and that she would not change her mind if she was determined to do something. She might have been struck down if she really broke up with Derek.

Asher lit a cigarette and finished smoking outside before calling a man he knew who was doing underground information trading.

Asher had to deal with Meredith for the sake of Chloe so he had to know his enemy well first. Soon, Meredith's information was sent over to him. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Asher took a look at the information but he could not hold his expression on his originally cold face anymore.

Meredith was exactly the woman who hit Derek and ran away. She was in prison for three years and was kicked out by the Xaviers...

Asher didn't know what happened in the process. However, when he saw that Meredith was the culprit of the car accident, he put out the cigarette in his hand in a fierce manner.

If Derek didn't experience the car accident then, Derek and Chloe wouldn't have separated. So, the source of all this was this woman, Meredith?

It wasn't clear what Meredith did to make Derek forget her past and break up with Chloe regardless of all these years’ love.

Asher sneered. This woman did not look as simple as he had seen last time. He was also deceived by her hypocritical softness.

Looking at Chloe, who was sleeping soundly in the back seat of his car, Asher said softly, "Don't worry, Chloe. That kind of woman will never be a stumbling block to your future. She doesn't deserve it and I'll make her pay."
