Chapter 8
My senior brother wanted to explain for me. I knew Shawn’s bad temper. I motioned him to leave first, so as not to got into trouble.
Jeremy still maintained some rationality. He looked at me with a complicated expression.
“Sarah, why did you leave without saying goodbye? Why did you suddenly change your wishes? Why did you throw away the things we gave you? Most important, why did you leave us?!”
The series of questions made my ears hurt.
I rubbed my temples, and my tone was very bad. “Jeremy, what qualifications do you have to question me? Who are you to me?”
“I am…” His hand was suspended in the air, not knowing how to answer.
In this life, I did not agree to his

confession, and I did not love him to death. He was nothing in my heart. As for that pitiful childhood sweetheart relationship, it was already exhausted in repeated injuries.
Shawn, who had always been unruly, put down his noble face.
He lowered his head slightly, “Sarah, we were wrong last time, but you don’t have to be so heartless. Do you know how long we have been looking for you…?”
The two told me that after I left, they were almost crazy with anxiety.
In the end, there was really no way, so they could only kneel in front of grandma and ask about my whereabouts. Grandma was kind–hearted and had watched them grow
up
since they were young, so she couldn’t bear to see them like this.
I told them my choice. I didn’t choose any of them. I chose a brand new life.
So, they chased me all the way here, using all their connections and trying every

possible way. They spent tens of millions of dollars just to see me again. But my heart was not moved at all.
I took out my mobile phone and played what they said to Lindsay on the day they confessed their love. Then I looked at the two people in front of me expressionlessly.
“Stop pretending, the game is over. If you like Lindsay, go after her. Don’t use my life as a tool to fulfill your great love. I have my own life to live, and I hope you won’t bother me again.”
After these words came out, the two people who were originally aggressive turned pale. After being speechless for a long time, no one could say a word. Only the recording in the phone was repeated over and over again.
Shawn wanted to grab my phone again, I took a step back and looked at him coldly. “This is the research center, there are special Soviet security personnel. Don’t think about smashing my phone to destroy

evidence, and don’t think about… threatening me with my grandmother!”
When I mentioned my grandmother, I felt an unspeakable pain in my heart. My grandmother was so good to them. Over the years, she treated them almost like her own grandchildren. Fruit tea in summer, wool scarves in winter. From childhood to adulthood, all snacks and gifts must be prepared in three portions.
But what about them? They weren’t there when I was most helpless and vulnerable, when I needed help the most. They were even threatening me with my grandmother’s life! I couldn’t forgive, and I wouldn’t even forget about it.
A trace of heartache flashed across Jeremy’s solemn face.
“Sarah, it’s not what you think. I just wanted to scare you that day. Grandma is
also our relative. How could I really kill her?”

“Yes, Sarah, have you forgotten that we helped you send your grandmother to the hospital together.”
Shawn was a little anxious, but after
looking around, he didn’t dare to step forward.
I sneered. “That’s why I don’t want to argue with you, but my patience with you is limited to this.”
