My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 1124

Chapter 1124 Raina took a deep breath as she quivered and said, "I might sound stupid for saying this, but even after half a month of heartbreak, I was still making excuses for George."

"He didn't mean it, he's just ignorant. If he had known about this, he would definitely be by my side. He's not the kind of person who would leave me at times like this, even if he has no feelings for me. "Even during those times, I was still worried he had gotten into an accident. I resented God and wondered if he'd call it quits when he finally took all that I had from me.

"But those thoughts stopped when I accidentally heard what the patient in the ward next to me said." Raina's gaze turned cold as she zoned out. "The VIP ward next door occasionally had bodyguards guarding it. One day, as I passed by the ward, I instinctively stopped when I heard them mentioning the Winters family. "A voice inside me told me to eavesdrop and listen to what they had to say and replace out the truth. In the end, I now found out that the legendary heir of Winters Corporation is George Winters. According to them, the " George" they mentioned possessed the same character, appearance, and even siblings as the "George" that I. knew, other than his identity.

"Turns out, my boyfriend was a chairman of a reputable company, someone clearly out of my league. Turns out, he never cared about me, and that must be why he never told me anything about him. Turns out this relationship had always been one-sided. It was a burden to him, and I was the joke.

"I thought he was just popular among the girls in school. I didn't know that countless daughters of wealthy families dreamed of being with him. In an instant, he became so distant and out of my reach. "They were discussing which lady would be the chairman of Winters Corporation's perfect match. They said, to be his partner, that lady must be of equal social rank. As they listed down a list of names, I heard a couple of prestigious celebrities' names.

"I wasn't even aware how I left, how long I got lost in my thoughts, or what I was thinking about. Before I knew it, I had reached the legendary Winter Corporation's headquarters.

"Across the street, I saw him. He was wearing a handmade suit. His expression was ice-cold. He was looking elegant and poised. The presence was overwhelming. A group of assistants in suits and formal attire followed behind him. I'd never seen him like this before, and it was his true form.

"I didn't have the courage to walk to him and emerge in front of him.

"I used to have a family and relatives. I was once full of enthusiasm and I was a fighter. But right now, I'm heavily in debt, my father died in spite of their best attempts to resuscitate him, and my younger brother is still in the ICU. I'm in a tight corner, and have no courage to stand in front of him again.

"What's more, he doesn't even love me.

"What am I supposed to do? Kidnap him? He's benign and openhearted. I have kidnapped him long enough. How do I have the heart to make him stick with me for the rest of his life?"

Raina chuckled and shook her head. "He didn't do anything wrong. He just doesn't love me. At that moment, I figured out everything. I decided to move on, and let him go.

"So..." Harold then said in a deep voice, "So, you're the one who wanted to break up, and you lied to him, saying that you've moved on?"

Raina was silent for a while before saying, "That's right. Only in this way, he'll truly let go of his sense of responsibility for me and no longer be bound to me. "But what if what binds him to you is not the sense of responsibility, but his feelings for you? What if he really loves you?" Harold said sharply, "Would you regret breaking up with him?"
