SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS-Chapter 942 - 940: A HEART-TO-HEART TALK WITH SEAN 3
Frin City
"Your smile, my sunshine on a rainy day,
In your laughter, all my troubles would sway."
After sending off Diamond to the airport, Waylon was driving back, thinking of going home to see his mother, and tell her about the matter he discussed with Diamond earlier.
However, that plan got disrupted when his phone rang, and upon checking the caller, his lips twitched.
"Why is he calling?" he mused as he pressed the answer button, and a few seconds later, a raspy voice sounded.
[Man, did you send them off?]
Waylon chuckled wryly at hearing that question.
If he was that worried, then why didn’t he do something about it?
However, when he thought about what happened a few days ago, Waylon could only swallow his words.
"Um, they are gone. Wanna meet?"
[Um. I will appreciate that,] the person sounded tired and Waylon could only sigh, thinking to himself why the other was being stubborn when he was spiraling like that.
As a result, Waylon changed his route and drove to Sean’s villa, where he found him in a bad state with several empty bottles of wine lying around.
Waylon could tell with a glance that it hasn’t been easy for Sean but should it really be that serious?
"Man, if you continue to wallow like some widow, you might truly find the world at its end!" he couldn’t help but chide as he kicked Sean ruthlessly without any mercy making Sean wince in pain.
"Man! Shit! That hurts!" Sean cussed as he withdrew his leg while glaring at Waylon but Waylon simply sneered at Sean and threw a, "You deserve it!"
Since when did his friend, who didn’t bat an eye lash even after getting caught two-timing went?
How come he became a coward after a little chiding?
Even he, the person who was forced to listen to the harsh words from Diamond, was in a good mood. So why was Sean acting as if the world had ended?
Waylon just couldn’t understand it. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Waylon was no saint and didn’t bother to clean up after his friend. He can only comfort but pamper, that was not his business at all.
So, he sat comfortably on the couch across Sean and looked at the wallowing man with disdain and Sean lashed out at him with grievance.
"You .... Must you really act like that?"
Waylon shrugged with a snort and retorted, "Should I cry with you? Unlike the cowardly you, I mustered my own courage and went ahead to fight for my own happiness. But what about you?" and didn’t bother to hide his disdain for Sean’s actions.
Upon hearing that, Sean clenched his fists as he gritted his teeth, recalling the hounding words or warnings from Diamond.
They have been on repeat in his mind for days and every time he remembers them, he just can’t find the strength to approach Ruby. He could tell that Diamond didn’t like him and that irked him so much.
When he looked at Waylon, who was just in school without much to his name and yet was favored by Diamond, he couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
"You must be feeling proud of yourself!" he uttered infuriatedly, and Waylon shrugged without feeling bothered and even responded.
"Yes. I feel very proud. Rather than wallowing like that and feeling offended by her words. I slept over it and thought of my future. I can’t change anything without working hard on it. It’s not like she is asking for us to wake up as trillionaires or something.
Her conditions were very simple. Be ambitious and make something of your life. Work hard, so that they won’t have to worry about anything. The money they have is obviously plenty and more than us. As much as that hurts to accept, but that is the truth, Sean.
From the second I fell for Diamond; I knew my position. As long as she gives me a chance, I was willing to serve her even on my knees. She means that much to me. I just want her to look at me. I might never be able to become richer than her in this life, but at least, I can still be by her side, do what I love and pursue the dreams I carry while making sure that I will not remain behind.
My passion has always been to cook and open many restaurants. While that dream is something that I will never leave, after this wake-up call, I expanded my dream. I will pursue it and I have many more years to live.
If I can think that way, why don’t you?"
Rather than cowering like a coward and trying to pin the blame on others, Waylon who was mocked by his ex-girlfriend for being poor and earning a measly income understood how bad and hurt he felt, watching her leave with someone who was poorer than him.
Although he exposed his real background after that and it became better. But was it his money?
It was still his family’s money and just like what Diamond said, there was nothing to be proud of regarding that. So, he might as well work hard to become a better version of himself. He might never be able to separate himself with the privileges brought by his own family but he can at least make something out of himself while he was at it.
As for how Sean might get offended, honestly, he didn’t care. Moreover, it wasn’t like Diamond said that Sean wasn’t allowed to pursue Ruby anymore.
Thinking about that, he added, "Sean, the moment you stopped contacting Ruby because of what his sister said, then you have already made a bad impression in her mind. You should be grateful that Diamond doesn’t really look much into the matter. Otherwise, I can swear to you that you will never get a chance to ever come close to her again!" his tone very serious.
He wasn’t a fool. He had seen the bodyguards whether openly or secretly protecting the sisters. If those guards were commanded not to allow Sean anywhere near Ruby, Sean wouldn’t have a chance.
Not just them, but Ruby herself. If she listens to Diamond, then it was game over.
Waylon really loves his friend and wanted to see him happy and be with the woman he loves.
He didn’t want Sean to be foolish and lose such a good girl because of his pride.
Yes, pride.
When has the almighty Sean ever suffered so much like that?
