Billionaire's Unforgettable Ex-Wife-Chapter 916 - 576: Do You Want to Get Back Together with Me?

Chapter 916: Chapter 576: Do You Want to Get Back Together with Me?

But she simply couldn’t believe everything she heard.

After staring quietly at Owen Lennon for half a minute, she turned and ran upstairs without hesitation.

Watching her flee in panic, Owen Lennon smirked. Escape now. Run away. See how she can avoid me tomorrow.

He turned and got into his car and left, while Rosalind couldn’t sleep well that night; she kept dreaming and overthinking.

She really liked Owen Lennon a few years ago.

But that day, she received notice from the team to go undercover beside a major drug lord.

The drug lord had multiple sensitive issues, and capturing him was an urgent matter.

And she, being a woman, was the easiest in the police team to approach him.

Back then, she had just joined the police force and wasn’t recognized outside. The captain wanted her to blend in as a fallen woman, making it easier to get close to the target.

But she was Owen Lennon’s girlfriend at the time, and if she told Owen Lennon about going undercover, he certainly wouldn’t agree.

Owen Lennon had once said he supported her being a detective but did not support her taking risks alone.

Going undercover was precisely a risky venture alone, something evidently difficult to discuss openly, but she had no choice. It was her only chance to prove herself after joining the team.

Previously, everyone disliked her being a woman, and many actions wouldn’t include her.

If she voluntarily gave up this opportunity, she would be destined to fail entirely.

To achieve her dreams, she deliberated for a long time before deciding to take up the task.

The price was losing Owen Lennon.

She knew full well how dangerous the mission was; once her identity was exposed, she would never return alive.

Not wanting to leave Owen Lennon with regrets, she repeatedly contemplated before deciding to break up with him.

Actually, the day she talked about breaking up, she mustered enough courage.

For she feared Owen Lennon would disagree, so she specifically invited him to the restaurant they often visited.

She rarely ate such luxurious meals, and that day was an exception.

Perhaps Owen Lennon sensed something because before eating, he kept asking her if there was something special.

She remained calm until after dinner and finally told him, "Let’s break up."

"Reason?" He looked at her with a grim face but didn’t scold her.

"If you need a reason, I don’t want to be with you anymore, how about that?"

Owen Lennon sighed helplessly, "Why are you so immature."

"I am not immature; I just have an unavoidable reason to separate from you."

"What if I disagree?"

"Saying things like this is pointless, I’ve already said it, we must break up."

Owen Lennon stood up, "Fine, then let’s break up."

Just like that, he left at that moment, and even paid the bill before leaving. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

He will never know; she sat alone in the restaurant for a whole afternoon, simply because she was so reluctant to let go of this relationship.

The task was indeed more dangerous than she imagined.

Luckily, after seven months, she returned alive.

No one knew how much effort and fear she put in to gain others’ respect, but she ultimately conquered herself.

Because of that successful anti-drug operation, she became an elite in the police department.

But the first thing she did upon returning was to look for Owen Lennon.

Unfortunately, Owen Lennon had closed his office and returned to Anchester.

She thought Owen Lennon was truly angry and would never forgive her again, so she quietly worked as a detective in the province.

Over the years, she didn’t find another boyfriend, somewhat because of Owen Lennon.

It’s not that she didn’t look; it’s just that no man she encountered could give her the feeling she had when she was with Owen Lennon.

After loving an excellent man like Owen Lennon, how can one love another?

As daylight came, Rosalind suddenly sat up from her bed, dazedly rubbed her eyes, saw the sunshine outside the window, and exclaimed she was screwed.

She got up without washing her face and ran out of her house because she was late.

But only after reaching downstairs did she realize that Owen Lennon’s car was there.

Seeing Owen Lennon, she inexplicably blushed a bit, and walked forward with furrowed brows, "Didn’t you leave last night?"

"How could I, I wouldn’t let myself freeze here.

I couldn’t sleep this morning, so I came by again.

Seeing you come out so late, looks like you slept well last night."

Rosalind frowned, good grief, if she slept well she wouldn’t be late.

Late? She threw open his car door and jumped inside, "Quick, quick, I’m late, take me to the police station."

Owen Lennon smiled back at her, "Letting me be your driver is quite expensive."

"Why do you have such airs?"

"Aren’t you asking what the fee is?"

Rosalind bit her lip, "Say it, what is it."

"Accompany me for noodles at lunch."

Rosalind was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."

He gave a devilish smile, got into the car, started the engine, and drove towards the police station, "Did you take to heart what I said last night?"

Rosalind turned to look at him, her expression quieted a bit.

Owen Lennon asked, "What’s wrong?"

"You... why did you say those things? Do you want to get back together with me?"

"Isn’t it possible?" Owen Lennon’s expression was calm too, "I believe it’s perfectly possible."

"But, we’ve already broken up. Don’t you think even if we get back together, it could create a barrier between us?"

"Don’t you think that breakup was childish? For an attorney who’s never lost a case, I find that breakup ridiculous and laughable."

"Can everything just be considered as if it never happened?" Rosalind bit her lip, "I think... aren’t you being a bit impulsive?"

"So, your consideration result is not to come back to me?"

"I just think you should be more thoughtful."

Being questioned by Owen Lennon like that made her a bit lost, and she’d already agonized over it all night, her mind was still a mess.

Him asking her like this made her really disoriented.

"I’ve already thought it through, the one who hasn’t is you.

Since that’s the case, I’ll give you the morning to decide.

Give me an answer when we have lunch today."

What can one consider in a morning? It’s entirely insufficient.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw they had reached the police station, as she lived right next to it.

Well, this way, she wouldn’t need to speak any nonsense.

She opened the car door and ran into the police station, that demeanor resembling avoiding the plague.

Owen Lennon smiled; sometimes looking at her, she was still like that naive little girl from years ago.
