âNot Abel, but your Worryfree.â Emmeline sobbed. âAbel doesnât love me anymore, but I still love him.
Iâm so sad. Itâs all your fault!â
âHow can this be my fault?â Waylon was somewhat aggrieved. âIf it werenât for Worryfree, Abel would have died.â
âBut Abel doesnât love me anymore! I still love him! Iâm so sad!â
âThatâs easy.â Waylon breathed a sigh of relief, then said unhurriedly, âItâs easy to solve.â
âEasy?â Emmeline asked in surprise, âDo you have a way? Can you make Abel love me again?â
âI canât confirm that,â Waylon answered, âThat depends on your fate with Abel, as well as your attractiveness.â
âThen, what else?â Emmeline pouted angrily. âI thought you had a way.â
âI did have a way,â Waylon said, âI can make you not love him anymore. So you wonât have any troubles.â
âHuh?â Emmeline was taken aback. âWhat do you mean?â
âWhat a fool!â Waylon explained. âAbel doesnât have feelings for you. You can eliminate your feelings for him too. Whatâs the good of falling in love? Itâs troublesome!â
Emmeline was speechless.
Waylon, I know you are doing it for my good. So I wonât fly to Osea to strangle you!
Waylon seemed not to feel Emmelineâs gritting teeth. âWhen you returned to Struyria, I put Worryfree in your suitcase. Drink it instead of falling in love with Abel. When you forget him, youâll live a better life.
Donât you still have Master and me? We love you.â
Emmeline did not answer Waylon.
Waylon asked me to give up loving Abel. Can I do that? Waylon is right. Rather than watching Abel not love me or fall in love with someone else, it would be better for me not to love him. Iâm obsessed with love and hurt myself. But can I bear not to love Abel anymore?
Waylon was thoughtful. He even prepared Worryfree for Emmeline. It seemed Waylon knew that if she returned to Struyria to find Abel, she would get a sad ending.
Emmeline pulled the suitcase from the closet and found a paper bag inside. On the paper bag had the words Worryfree.
Emmeline sniffed it. There was no flavor. But this tasteless pack of medicinal powder deprived Abel of his affection for her.
After she took the medicinal powder, she and Abel would be even. They would become strangers and forget each other.
Of course, they could also fall in love with someone else and get married separately. They would not interfere with each other anymore.
Emmeline was a little tempted. At this moment, Abel arrived.
He did not have time to park the car in the parking lot but stopped it on the sidewalk in front of Nightfall Cafe.
It was still raining. Abel patted the door. âEmma, open the door!â
Emmeline was startled when she heard the noise from downstairs.
Is Abel coming? Heâs fast enough!
After a while, Sam ran out of the room. âMs. Louise, youâre back! Itâs raining now. Why are you back?
Youâre all wet.â
âIs Abel coming?â Emmeline asked, âI heard him shouting outside.â
âItâs Mr. Abel,â Sam answered, âHis yelling woke me up, then I saw you.â
âGo down and open the door for him first,â Emmeline said, âItâs raining. Heâll get wet.â
âWhat are you doing?â Sam saw Emmeline holding a paper bag.
âNothing.â Emmeline hid Worryfree behind her. âItâs nothing. Go to open the door for Abel.â
