Chapter 807 Sucking Up All The Tears

Although it was already late, Damion looked at Ivy and saw that she didn't seem tired, so he said, "Let's talk."

Ivy felt a little uneasy when she heard Damion say this. He had said the same thing to her at the restaurant before, and they ended up having a very unpleasant argument. If it weren't for the manager intervening, things could have gotten even worse.

Ivy thought that she and Damion probably had no relationship in this lifetime.

Seeing Ivy's face turn pale instantly, Damion furrowed his brows and said, "Don't be nervous. I won't scold you or kick you out. Let's have a serious talk."

Ivy nodded her head but her face remained pale as ever. Her thoughts were exactly what Damion had guessed - she was extremely nervous and afraid of being kicked out by him. She would really end up on the streets if that happened.

Damion continued speaking, "When I told you before not to do this job anymore, I meant it seriously. You may have your own ideas about what you want to do with your life but first listen to my thoughts." Ivy nodded again and replied softly, "Okay."

Damion couldn't help but smile at how obedient Ivy was being for once, "It would be great if you were always like this."

Ivy bit her lip lightly as her emotions became even more complicated than before. She really didn't know how to face Damion anymore.

Damion continued, "I'm sorry. After you left the hospital, I looked up your information."

Ivy wasn't surprised or felt anything was wrong. It seemed like what Damion should do.

She shook her head and said, "It's okay. I understand."

She wasn't angry, and there was even a hint of sweetness in her heart.

She couldn't explain it herself, but Ivy knew she felt a little bit of sweetness.

Seeing her like this, Damion also froze for a moment and said, "As long as you don't mind."

Ivy replied with a low voice and finally raised her eyes to look at Damion before giving him a sweet smile.

Damion hadn't seen this expression on her face for so long that he was momentarily stunned.

He didn't speak immediately but kept his gaze firmly fixed on Ivy's face.

At this moment, Damion didn't want to do anything else. He really wanted to record Ivy's expression firmly in his mind so that if she ever acted out again and ran away from his sight again, he could remember what she looked like now.

However, thinking about it made Damion feel very strange himself.

He didn't think too much about why he held such resentment towards Ivy or why everything she did seemed to anger him somehow. He didn't try to figure out exactly what it was that made him angry. And now, at this moment, Damion seemed to understand everything.

Although the thought made Ivy feel a bit absurd.

But it seemed like it should be this way.

Damion suddenly laughed, and that laughter left Ivy confused.

She looked at Damion with confusion as if asking him, "What are you laughing about?"

Naturally, Damion didn't bother to answer Ivy's question.

After laughing for a while, he looked seriously at Ivy and said, "I know you were studying in college before but dropped out after your freshman year. Now I'm asking you if you still want to go back to college?" Ivy was taken aback and her eyes immediately turned red.

Of course she wanted to go back to college. But she had no choice but to drop out before and never had the chance to pick up where she left off.

It was a heavy blow on her heart for the past two years. She never mentioned it to anyone because talking about it would only cause her pain that she couldn't bear.

Now that Damion asked her like this, Ivy instinctively thought of one possibility - if she said yes, then maybe Damion would send her back to college?

But...

Ivy tightly bit her lip as tears finally fell uncontrollably from her eyes. Who was she kidding?

Why should she enjoy these gifts from Damion?

Even if she shamelessly thought that Damion might really like her, why should she think that way?

What did Ivy have that was worth liking about her by Damion?

The more Ivy thought about it, the more aggrieved and uncomfortable she felt.

She didn't know how to describe her feelings.

It seemed like everything was wrong.

Everything was wrong.

Damion had no idea that his words would make Ivy cry like this.

He panicked and rushed to get tissues to wipe away Ivy's tears.

He had never comforted a girl in his life before.

Casey was the only girl around him, but she was just a little crazy person who wouldn't cry even when treated unfairly outside. She would only think of how to retaliate back on her own terms. And all of them had been protecting her since childhood so she rarely suffered any grievances.

Most of the time, Casey was bullying others and making them cry.

Damion had never made a girl cry before, which made him feel flustered and unsure of what to do. He gently wiped Ivy's tears with a tissue, but his tender gesture only made her feel more upset. She felt very wronged and knew that she shouldn't take out her emotions on Damion, who had already been good enough to her. It wouldn't be fair to him if she continued to vent on him like this. However, for the first time in so long, someone asked Ivy if she wanted to go to college and cared about her thoughts. She tightly bit her lip and looked at Damion as she said, "If I say I don't want it, I must be lying."

When she was in school, Ivy's grades were actually quite good. Even when she dropped out of school due to difficulties in life, many teachers tried persuading her not give up on college because it would make a big difference in life.

Despite many people offering their help along the way, they could only assist with immediate problems rather than guaranteeing future success for Ivy.

At that time, Ivy was timid and cowardly, unable to resist and had to let her family take her back home. Later on, she didn't know what got into her but suddenly became determined and had the courage to run away from home.

She thought that she had fought against fate.

However, even though she ran away, she couldn't go back to school. She didn't even return to the city where her college was located. She used all of her money to buy a ticket for the farthest place possible and ended up in Innisrial.

But for a young girl like herself, it was extremely difficult to establish herself in a new city. She had no one to rely on and experienced being cheated and bullied. She went through many hardships. Meeting Damion was like a dream come true for Ivy. It gave her an experience that she never had before and feelings that shouldn't have existed.

But dreams were just dreams after all.

Ivy foolishly believed that she could hold onto this dream forever. She told lies in order not to show Damion her embarrassing side. If this really was a dream, then at least let it be beautiful inside the dream as well - this was what Ivy thought at the time.

So when Ivy realized that she couldn't get lost in this beautiful dream forever, she ran away because deep down inside people's hearts were greedy creatures.

If she continued to live in the dream with lies, in the end, she would really fall into an abyss with nothing left.

So, she ran away from the hospital, without telling Damion.

She also believed that in such a big city, they were two people from different worlds and could never meet again.

But Damion still appeared before her again.

Ivy knew she was finished.

Completely finished.

In front of her was an abyss and she was probably going to jump down it for real this time.

Damion was really panicked. He had never seen a girl cry so miserably before. Besides wiping Ivy's tears away, he didn't even know what else he could do to help her feel better.

One tissue after another became soaked through as Ivy's tears flowed like water from a broken faucet that couldn't be stopped no matter what he did.

Eventually, Damion ran out of ideas and just grabbed half a pack of tissues to cover Ivy's eyes instead. This sudden move caught Ivy off guard and made her forget about crying for a moment or two at least. Damion thought that once this pack of tissues had been used up completely, then maybe this girl would have cried enough by then anyway.

Suddenly his wrist was grabbed by Ivy who pulled his hand down towards hers.

Her eyes were swollen from crying, with red veins all over the whites of her eyes. She looked at Damion like that.

Damion saw that she had stopped crying and said, "That worked pretty well. It sucked up all your tears."

Ivy was speechless.

Was he making fun of her?

Her face turned red suddenly, very unnatural.

Damion said, "Go wash your face. Don't cry anymore. No matter what grievances you've suffered in the past or how sad you are, crying once is enough."

Ivy nodded and stood up to wash her face.

When she saw herself in the mirror, she was completely frightened.

It was amazing that Damion could have the patience to wipe her face for her.
