Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Noon, Cantonese restaurant.

Aarav pushed the paper version of the script in front of Winnie: "The film's start date is at the end of next month, is

your time convenient."

Winnie nodded and followed up with, "Mr. Bennett, my ...... play needs to tour and may be a little delayed."

"It's okay, I've been informed about this, I'll have them make the adjustment."

"Thank you Mr. Bennett."

"You don't have to be so polite with me, I just hope I can help you."

Winnie looked at the script with downcast eyes, the corners of her lips pursed gently.

Aarav took a sip of coffee before saying, "By the way, the Mr. Booth we met the other day, was he your boyfriend?"

Winnie raised her eyes and shook her head gently, "No."

"No matter, I went back and thought about it, but I didn't remember meeting him at any reception. Aarav said, "But

if you have the right one around you, you can also start a new relationship, don't always be stuck in the past, to

bear the mistakes made by others."

"I got it, thanks Mr. Bennett."

"I'll see you at the opening, then."

......

After separating from Aarav, Winnie walks aimlessly down the street wearing a mask and hat.

I don't know how long it took, but she was standing in front of A University.

This is where Channing used to spend his time.

The students inside have changed from batch to batch, all fresh and energetic faces.

She sat on the bus stop across the street and remembered the day he came to her in the rain when he was clearly

home with a cold.

Every move made her fall.

Can life really, really start over.

Winnie sat there, all afternoon, watching those students attend and dismiss classes.

They all seem to have a clear goal in life and know what they want.

On the way back, Aimee called her: "I just got off the plane, let's go to dinner tonight."

One hour later.

Aimee sat down across from her: "What's wrong, didn't the play go well, why do I see you looking so sullen?"

Winnie picked up her water and took a sip, "Did you."

"Of course I do, it's almost as if I have something on my mind, come on out and I'll help you analyze it."

Winnie hung her head, not speaking for a moment.

Aimee added, "It's not like Mr. Booth is still after you, is it?"

"Not him."

Aimee keenly caught the deeper meaning of her words and moved closer, whispering, "That and there."

Winnie: "......"

She put down her glass of water and was silent before saying, "Actually, when the accident happened three years

ago, I had a boyfriend."

Aimee was slightly surprised: "I thought those were rumors ......"

Not long after that incident, Winnie stayed in the crew, the matter itself is sensitive, Aimee also did not ask more

questions.

Winnie said, "It started with him, Chassell put the picture ......"

She gripped her glass of water and closed her eyes so she could continue in a sibilant voice: "Chassell took the

picture to his face."

Aimee didn't expect there to be this layer, and her eyes widened slightly: "Then you ......"

"Chassell intended to provoke him, and succeeded ...... he moved against Chassell and was taken away by the

police, while Chassell lay in intensive care, life or death unknown."

Those two days were the hardest two days of her life.

"And then what?"

"Then ...... later lawyers told me that if I could come forward and sue Chassell, the judge would try him in

conjunction with the antecedents and consequences and would be able to get him a chance to win."

Aimee suddenly realized: "No wonder, I said why you would directly sue Chassell, although his practice is nasty, but

once female artists involved in such things, even if they are the injured party, they will be blamed by the public."

Said Aimee, trying to speak again: "So your boyfriend broke up with you because of this incident?"

Winnie whispered: "I gave him to mention the breakup, I also thought we broke up, he went abroad for a few years

because of this, recently returned, but ...... he thought we did not break up, on ...... "

The rest of what Winnie did not say, Aimee also understood.

She stirred the straw in her glass, "The rumors are half true and half false, but that boyfriend of yours is pretty

bloody good, I'd have to beat Chassell to death too."

Aimee went on to analyze: "So your boyfriend's attitude when he came back this time was that he wanted to

continue to be with you?"

Winnie nods gently.

Aimee said: "That's good! It means he's a good man! Those things weren't your fault in the first place, they were

Chassell's, that oaf, and he managed to not mind, really ......"

"But I mind."

Aimee was instantly quiet.

Winnie let out a breath before speaking again slowly: "Every time I think about it, Chassell standing in front of him

and handing him those pictures, I feel devastated and I can never be with him again without a care in the world."

Aimee held her hand: "These are not your faults."

Winnie laughed: "I know, everyone reassures me like that, and I've told myself that countless times, but it's no use, I

can't restrain the images in my head and I can't forgive myself."

"But your boyfriend really loves you, he should not have said a word to blame you from the beginning to the end, or

you wouldn't be so hard to bear."

Winnie lowered her eyes, "He's nice and good and deserves better, and I don't want to hold him back."

"So what's wrong with you, you are at least the queen of the film eh, popular top actress, take more trophies at

home are almost piled up, you are not inferior, you really want to be open with him, maybe your fans feel that he is

not worthy of you."

Winnie laughed and shook her head, "These are just a flashy veneer."

"Whether he's a trappist or not, there are specialties in the field, don't forget, you've suffered a lot along the way,

and by denying your achievements, you're denying your efforts. Although I don't know how good your boyfriend

really is, but since he can even make you think that way, let's just assume that he is really good, such that he is

good enough to match you."

In fact, before she met Channing, Winnie was probably thinking the same thing as Aimee.

Men, just for fun, like to be together, do not like to separate, there is no burden.

But Channing is different, he is the brightest moon in the darkness ah.

Just when she could barely work up the courage to be with him, there was that incident.

She felt that they were probably not meant to be.

But now, he answered her side again.

She couldn't refuse him, whether it was three years ago, or three years later.

Aimee continues, "Winnie, really, start over, I'm sure that your boyfriend loves you very much."
