Chapter 176 Heartbeat
Rogelio didn't say anything for a long time, and his eyes were covered with a layer of melancholy. My hand paused and I couldn't help asking him, "what's wrong with you?"
Rogelio looked a little hesitant, and the good atmosphere inexplicably appeared a trace of depression, but what I saw in his eyes was completely inconsistent with the current atmosphere.
There was a kind of firmness in it, as if he had already made some decisions.
"I always keep some words in my heart. I don't know how to tell others, and I don't know what others will think of me if I say them out. But I can't ignore this feeling, which is really uncomfortable if I keep it in my heart."
The look on his face made me feel that he had been depressed for a long time. I couldn't help but ask him worriedly, "what's the matter? If you are willing to tell me, I'm willing to be that listener. "
"In fact, I have told you something before. After I woke up, I forgot something."
I nodded. "Did you tell me that you were still upset by those memories that you couldn't remember?"
Rogelio shook his head gently. "I didn't want to dwell on the past, but it also includes me. I forgot my feelings for Michelle."
My fingers trembled, and at that moment, an indescribable complex emotion surged in my heart.
Rogelio's hands holding the knife and fork. He didn't move his hands anymore. His eyes were fixed on my face and never left.
"I just remember this name, and then the people around me told me how much we loved each other in the past. I wanted to try my best to be that role back, but in the past half a year, I had no progress except for feeling less and less love about her."
When Rogelio spoke, he frowned slightly. "Will you think I'm ruthless?"
I shook my head. "It's not your fault. You also don't want to do this."
Hearing my answer, Rogelio's tone was a little relaxed, and there was a little heat in her calm eyes. "Then you think I should continue to cultivate the relationship with Michelle, and find back the past that I can't remember, or should I draw the end as soon as possible, and give both of us an end to avoid wasting our time?"
I didn't expect that Rogelio would leave such a difficult question to me, but I didn't think I can give him a neutral answer, because I have my own selfish motive.
"It's said that it's better to demolish ten temples than to ruin a marriage."
A hint of disappointment flashed through Rogelio's eyes. "So you want me to continue?"
My selfishness finally gained the upper hand. I shook my head and said, "Don't make things difficult for yourself. Your life is short, not to mention that you had just recovered after a disaster. Your partner is the person who will accompany you for the rest of your life. Of course, you should be responsible for yourself and make yourself happy. After all, no one can replace your happiness."
Rogelio's eyes lit up again. "Then do you think I'm heartless?"
"Of course not."
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since Michelle didn't really love Rogelio, it was a good thing for him to let it go for such a reason.
The smile on Rogelio's face returned. He lowered his head and cut a piece of steak.
"Although it was helpless for you and Robbie to pretend to be a couple at that time, don't pretend to be a couple in public on purpose in the future. Otherwise, as time goes by, it will be more and more difficult to explain."
Rogelio's tone was somewhat commanding. There was no room for negotiation in his tone.
I was stunned for a moment, but still obediently replied, "Oh.".
Without giving up, Rogelio continued in a domineering manner that I hadn't adapted to yet, "no matter whether you have work or not, I will ask Robbie to cancel it for you. During this period, you'd better focus on the endorsement. As an appointment designer, in addition to advertising shooting, you need to draw design drawings in the company."
"In the company?"
"Yes, don't worry. I will provide a quiet environment for you. If you need to practice the program at the party, you can also ask the tutor to come to the company. The most indispensable thing for Ivey is the space."
"Well..."
It was a sudden decision for me.
Rogelio raised his head and asked, "do you have any other questions?"
"I can do whatever you want, but..."
"Don't worry. I'll talk to Robbie."
At this time, the phone rang. Rogelio took a look at the number and couldn't help laughing. "What a coincidence. As soon as I mentioned him, he called me."
Rogelio pointed at his phone screen. I saw the name of Robbie on it.
"It happens that we seldom meet each other. Then I can tell him on the phone now. You can rest assured, too."
As Rogelio spoke, he put the phone on the table. When he answered the phone, he pressed the speaker button.
Rogelio talked first, "I was looking for you for some affairs, but you called me first."
Robbie's voice was somewhat casual, "Well, you are my brother. You say it first." NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
With a smile on her face, Rogelio said to Robbie, "Cancel all the works for Jasmine. During this period, let her work in the company. On the one hand, she is busy with the endorsement. On the other hand, I want her to design two clothes in her name as a part of the product endorsement."
"You have a shrewd plan. Okay, but the fees have to be calculated separately."
Rogelio couldn't help laughing. He looked at me and replied the phone, "You are also smart. How about I deduct a percentage from the sales to Jasmine?"
I thought we could just talk about it in a few words, but unexpectedly, Robbie changed the subject. "I can promise you, but you have to promise me first, so that we can talk about this."
However, Rogelio didn't show much surprise. "It's your style. Tell me, what condition?"
"Do you know that Michelle went to see Jasmine?"
"Oh?" Rogelio frowned at me, "I don't know. Why does she want to see Jasmine?"
"She wants Jasmine to play the female supporting role in the new play you invested."
"It's true that Michelle didn't discuss it with me," said Rogelio, looking at me with a bit of inquiry
"She went straight to Jasmine. Jasmine didn't promise her, and she came to me again."
"What do you mean? Does your condition have anything to do with this matter? "
"In my setting, I won't let Jasmine play any female supporting role."
Rogelio frowned, "Don't you want me to change Jasmine to the heroine at this time?"
"I'm not that bored, and I'm not interested in this play."
"Then what do you want me to promise you?"
"Persuade our mother to let Jasmine be her daughter-in-law."
My heart suddenly thumped out of rhythm. This sudden change made me not know how to handle it.
Rogelio frowned, "If you want to marry Jasmine? I'm sorry. I won't help you. "
On the other side of the phone, Robbie chuckled, "you are really a contradiction."
