Chapter 64
After speaking. Robert casually flicked his sleeve, “Anya, if you think you can win back Calix with this move, you’re overestimating yourself. However, if you just want to trouble us, well, I must admit you’ve succeeded in doing so.”
Though Robert lowered his head, I could still see that his eyes held a hint of disdain for me, as if I were some filthy, despicable thing that wasn’t worthy of seeing the light of day.
I’d just happened to glance at Calix and Cathy by accident, without having any other thoughts in my mind at all. But hearing Robert’s offensive words, I couldn’t help but subtly furrow my brows.
“Anya is just…” Jagger tried to explain on my behalf.
I quickly pulled him back, stopping him from saying anything more.
Without even bothering to look at Robert, I calmly said, “The world is so vast, and if all of you can come here, why can’t I? Is there any law that says I’m not allowed to be here?”
I paused for a moment and then went on, “Also, I don’t go around troubling people without a good reason. Before you jump to conclusions, you should think about whether you actually have the right to give me a hard time!”
“You!” Robert’s face froze with rage. His complexion went from red to white in an instant, and the
lines on his face hardened!
My merciless words must have hit him like a ton of bricks, leaving him completely stunned.
This Robert, who was always treated with respect and admiration outside, had probably never been spoken to like that before!
He was so angry that he clenched his fists tightly.
I didn’t care whether he was angry or not. After I said what I had to say, I looked at anger and asked, “Are you heading back? Why don’t you give me a ride?”
Jagger’s face lit up with joy when I took the initiative to ask for a ride in his car. “Sure, of course,” he
said.
With that, he quickly went to open the passenger door for me, gesturing for me to get in. That seat,

“This Anya, damn it!” I heard Robert still fuming as he kicked a stone hard from the roadshe
Cathy was carefully looking at Calix, and when the saw his gloomy expression, I could cells term skipped a heat
But she managed to stay calm and said with a smile, “It’s clear that Miss Olsen la ready to start a new life. This man comes from a wealthy family and is the richest in this village, Miss Often won’t lose out by being with him.”
I don’t know how she knew Jagger was the richest, but I’m sure there were a lot of things she
wouldn’t tell others.
“Shameless!” In Robert’s eyes, I was just a gold digger, always trying to get close to weakly people whenever I had the chance. He muttered those words in disapproval
“What’s so good to see in this godforsaken place? Let’s go back,” he said.
Cathy seemed desperate to leave. She’d come to see Caliz, and since he hadn’t said anything, the suggested, “Calix, let’s settle down in the town first.”
Finally, Calix moved and lowered his head as he got into the car. Cathy followed him in.
As the car started moving, I could tell she still had that uneasy feeling in her chest because she couldn’t help but look at Calix and asked, “Calix, why did you come to this place for no reason?”
Calix had told her to accompany him to a place, and Cathy must have thought it would be somewhere near Aquoria City. Little did she know they’d end up here.
When the car entered the small town, her face turned pale.
This was clearly the place she least wanted to visit!

Callx furned to look at her. His gaze was deep, and I could see a hint of confusion under his sychrows “Don’t you like it here?”
athy took a deep breath, probably reminding herself that she needed to play her cards right if the wanted to win back his affection. So the quickly changed her tune, “How could that be?”
But her forced response didn’t escape Calix’s notice. He could see the uneasiness in her eyes.
In his memory, whenever I talked about this place, my eyes would light up with excitement.
I sat in Jagger’s car and after driving for a while, I asked him to stop near my home.
Jagger was really enthusiastic. “Anya, how about visiting my home tomorrow? My mother really likes you.”
He paused for a moment and then continued, “If you feel uncomfortable, we can visit my animal
farm.”
Looking at me, he said, “By the way, I heard you singing just now, and it was beautiful.”
The tenderness in his voice and the way he looked at me showed just how much he cared for me. He was hinting that his family would accept me even though I was divorced, and that he had the means
to take care of me.
I knew Jagger was sincere, but I still smiled and shook my head. “No, thank you.”
I turned to face him seriously. “Jagger, you’re a good person, and you deserve a good girl’s love.”
“You’re a good girl too, really!” Jagger thought I might be feeling insecure and quickly tried to
reassure me.
I pursed my lips. Insecurity wasn’t the issue for me.
Despite my situation, I’d always been humble when I was at the Quinn family because I loved them.
“What I mean is that right now, I only want to live a peaceful life with my daughter. ve no plans to get married. Don’t waste your time on me, it’s not necessary.”
The smile disappeared from Jagger’s face in an instant, leaving only a sense of loss that seemed to go on forever.

I apologized with a slight nod and then quickly opened the car door and walked away.
Fortunately, Jagger wasn’t the type to be overly pushy and didn’t come after me.
I felt relieved about that.
When I got home, I found the door locked.
I took out my phone and saw a voice message from Karina saying that they’d gone to the mountains
to watch birds with Aurora.
That little girl was always curious about everything in the countryside, and Aurora was happy to
take her around, so she didn’t have to stay with me all day.
Since I couldn’t get inside, I just wandered aimlessly down the street.
Before I knew it, I found myself standing in front of the town hospital.
The town hospital had changed a lot over the years. The buildings were bigger now, and they’d even
installed elevators.
But the large yard behind it was still the same as before.
I couldn’t resist the pull of the place and started walking towards it.
As I looked at the yard, I could smell the fresh scent of pine needles mixed with the earthy aroma of
the potted plants.
I wasn’t sure if the trees just hadn’t grown much taller or if they’d been replanted after dying, but they still looked the same as before, just a bit taller.
In this small world, those potted plants and small pine trees brought back so many beautiful
memories for me.
Maybe it was because I’d seen Calix just now that my emotions started to feel heavy again.
As I walked under the tree, it was like I could see two teenagers huddled together.
Two young souls weighed down by guilt, seeking warmth from each other.
When I first met Calix, I was going through a really tough time too.

“Big Eyes?”
Suddenly, I heard someone call out from behind me.
That voice was like a magical spell, snapping me right out of my thoughts.
I couldn’t believe it and quickly turned around to see Calix standing there, looking at me with such deep affection in his eyes!
He called me “Big Eyes“!
He… recognized me?
My heart started pounding like crazy, as if there were drums beating inside my chest.
My eyes filled up with tears before I even realized it.
