Chapter 618
William was leaning against the head of his bed when he said, “Mom, Bri and I are over.”
“Why can’t you give Carla a chance, then?”
“Because I’m just not into her.”
Outside the door, Carla was clutching a thermos. Her eyes were suddenly rimmed red.
William had been waiting for Brittany for years, and she had been waiting for him.!
She never thought about meddling between them and rarely even kept in contact. She didn’t want to put William in
a tough spot. But the truth was, William never gave her a shot.
Mrs. Dillion’s face went a bit sour; she wanted to say something.
“Mom, let’s drop the subject, alright? I want you to prepare a contract for me. I don’t want the shares Bri gave me
in the company.”
Brittany had invested in the Dillion Group before, and he appreciated her contribution.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheir issues were never something that could be solved by throwing money at them.
“You don’t want the shares?” Mrs. Dillion was fuming, “William, do you even know what you’re saying? That’s what
Brittany owes you.”
“Mom, she doesn’t owe me anything.” William insisted, “I chose to love her. Anything I do for her, I do willingly. I
won’t take those shares. I don’t need her to owe me anything.”
He just didn’t want to completely sever all ties with Brittany.
Even if they couldn’t be a couple, they could still be friends.
Mrs. Dillion was stunned, “William, I can’t support this.”
Brittany had made the Dillion family lose dignity. She had to pay for it!
William and his mother were at an impasse, so he chose to keep his mouth shut.
The standoff between mother and son lasted a while before Mrs. Dillion couldn’t take it anymore and left the room.
As she opened the door, she ran into a clearly crestfallen Carla.
“Carla, you’re here?” Mrs. Dillion remembered William’s words and felt a pang of sympathy, “Don’t listen to his
nonsense. He just broke up and he’s probably not in the best mood.”
Carla shook her head, “It’s okay.”
She lifted the thermos in her hands and asked, “Can I go in and see him?”
Mrs. Dillion didn’t stop her, “Go ahead.”
Carla stepped into the room with her thermos.
William looked surprised for a moment, then asked, “Why are you here?”
“You’re in the hospital. I wanted to check up on you.”
Carla looked at William, who seemed to have lost a lot of weight. She felt a twinge of heartache, but mostly
helplessness.
Seeing the guy she liked all gloomy because of another woman, it felt like her heart was being shredded.
She put down the thermos and sat down on the edge of the bed, “William, are you okay?”
William always kept work and personal life separate. He never took out his bad mood on others, not even now.
“I’m fine. Thanks for coming.” He paused and said, “Carla, you heard everything I said just now, didn’t you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I… I didn’t hear anything.” Carla reflexively denied; her lips were trembling, “William, can we not talk about this,
please?”
Looking into Carla’s eyes, which were filled with sympathy, he saw a reflection of himself, “Carla, you’re still young.
You can find someone better.”
Clearly, William didn’t think he was the one for her.

Carla bit her lip. Her eyes instantly welled up, “William, I like you. I never thought about being with you. I just hope
we could chat occasionally. Can’t we even be friends?”
She knew all of William’s attention was on Brittany. She knew how painful it was to love someone you can’t have.
She just wanted to occasionally chat with him. Was that too much to ask?
William looked at her swollen eyes. He felt a twinge of heartache, but he still stood his ground.
“Carla, you deserve someone better.”
“But you are the best.” Carla’s eyes were red as she said, “In my eyes, you’re the best.”
“I don’t need anything. I just want to occasionally chat with you. Is that too much to ask?”
William’s lips moved slightly. He was silent for a while before saying, “It’s already late. You should go home and
rest.”
