Chapter 118 - TOO BAD IF I HAVE TO THROW IT AWAY (2/2)

”July…”

”Knox, please…”

”You can't ruin your life like this.”

July's gaze hardened, she wiped away her tears with the back of her hand harshly before it could fall on her cheeks. ”You ruin me, now you must take responsibility for that.”

Knox was taken aback. It was harsh, but it was the truth. ”If I can turn back time…”

”I will fall in love with you all over again…” July finished his line and didn't let him to end that with regret. ”If I can turn back time, I want to love you longer than my lifetime.”

This was one thing that Knox always knew. Their lifetime…

Someday, Knox would reach the day when he would see her in the end of her line of life, when all the things that was left for him was only their memories. He would live with that and regretted every passing seconds that he spent without holding her tightly in his arms.

”I want you to meet you again, no matter how long it takes.”

”It will not fair for you.”

”I don't want fairness,” July became emotional. ”I want you.”

Knox pulled her closer and hugged her even tighter. He wanted to forget everything and despised whatever the things that put him away from her… he wanted the time to stop.

”Please come back and see me again…” that was the only thing that July asked from him. She didn't care how long it took Knox to return, she wanted him to see her again.

”I will.” Knox knew it was a mistake to promise her something that he knew very well would hurt her, but he would do anything to keep his promise to her.

July cried silently and then freed her body from him, as she showed him something in her hand. It was a ring. The same ring that Knox put it on her finger the last time he saw her, when everything had not yet turned into a mess.

”I want you to put it on my finger,” July said. ”You should do it properly and look at my reaction.”

Knox laughed softly when he heard that. He intended to see her reaction, but something came up and he simply was not able to meet her for such a long time.

”I thought you have thrown it away.” Knox thought that way because he didn't see it on her finger.

”That crossed my mind, but it's diamond, too bad if I have to throw it away.”
