Rebirth and Finding the One Truly Loves Me

Chapter 369 She Confronted Him Ingrid kept telling herself to stay calm. Bianca was just trying to sow discord between her and Eden, she said. If she believed it to be true, then she fell for Bianca’s trick.

Ingrid took a deep breath and tried her best not to show her inner emotions in front of Bianca. She calmly and coldly said, “Whether he truly loves me or not, | am well aware. You don’t need to go to great lengths to sow discord!”

Bianca slightly curled her lips and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can take a look at his wallet when he’s not paying attention!”

Bianca knew that her words had planted a bomb in Ingrid’s heart, and she couldn't remain indifferent!

After Bianca left, Ingrid stood on the beach for a long time.

She didn’t go towards the cruise ship until Eden called her.

All night long, Ingrid’s mind was in a mess. She sat in the corner, watching Eden play and laugh with everyone. Her heart felt as if it was tightly gripped by an invisible hand, making her feel so uncomfortable that she couldn’t breathe.

After blowing out the candles, Eden was smeared with cake by Jase and Bruno. He smiled back and retaliated. | don’t know who pushed Eden, but his tall body fell towards Ingrid. The cake in his hand also smeared all over Ingrid’s face. Chapter 340 She Confronted Him

Watching Ingrid transform into a little kitten, Eden burst into laughter and held onto the back of her head, slowly licking off the cake from her face.

Ingrid was held tightly in his arms and kissed, she wanted to struggle but had no strength at all.

He didn’t realize until he had kissed all the cake off her face that her eyes were a little red. “Darling, what’s wrong?”

He lowered his voice, slightly husky with a hint of magnetism. Every time Ingrid heard him call her like this, her heart would melt. But at this moment, her heart was filled with nothing but. bitterness, without a hint of sweetness or ripples.

Ingrid shook her head and said, “It's nothing, just feeling a bit sleepy.”

“Yesterday, you got angry with me. Were you unable to sleep well without me by your side?”

“Don't be conceited.”

Eden laughed and then lowered his head to give her a fierce kiss. “Go back before twelve o'clock. If you feel tired, take a nap on the sofa first.”

“Okay.” Ingrid didn’t know how she fell asleep in such a noisy and chaotic environment.

When she woke up in a daze, she was already lying in Eden’s

arms.

He propped up his head and, seeing that she had woken up, he immediately turned over and pressed down on her, “Awake?” Ingrid blinked her hazy eyes and glanced outside the window. The night had already grown very dark.

“What time is it?”

“Two in the morning,” Eden leaned down and kissed her eyes, whispering softly in her ear, “I thought | wouldn’t receive your gift.” Ingrid frowned and twisted her eyebrows, “Didn’t | already give it to you?”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Rather than sneakers, | prefer you giving yourself to me.”

Ingrid didn’t have time to say anything before he bit her earlobe, and his breathing gradually became heavy.

Ingrid was not in the mood. She placed both hands on hist shoulders and gave him a strong push.

Feeling her resistance, Eden looked up at her and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“| was a bit tired and didn’t want to-”

Eden frowned when he saw her looking reluctant, “Are you still mad at me?”

“| really didn’t want to throw a tantrum, Eden, you can’t force me every time.”

Upon hearing her words, Eden became somewhat annoyed. He got up from her and sat back against the headboard, coldly Eta ezez rendra en seconds without saying a word He wakes to the sacony in a parete, and when

At this moment, she was like a prisoner waiting for the judge’s verdict

The process of waiting for his answer, every minute, every second, felt like being pressed the pause button, incredibly long. and agonizing!

After a while, Ingrid’s palm, which was clutching the blanket, was covered in tiny beads of sweat, but she still didn’t receive a response from Eden.

Ingrid sat up from the bed and looked towards Eden by the bedside. By the moonlight outside, Ingrid saw that Eden had already fallen asleep.

His cold, rigid features were hidden in the dim light, his sleeping face calm, his breathing steady, unaffected by the tension. between the two of them after their argument.

Ingrid bit her lip hard, her heart plummeting sharply. She wrapped her hands around her slender body and suddenly. felt extremely cold.

Every time they had an argument, she would toss and turn in bed and couldn't fall asleep, but he was carefree and could still sleep soundly. If he found her still angry the next day, he would shamelessly coax her.

Ingrid stared at him for a long time, but in the end, she still. didn’t wake him up.

She glanced at the foot of the bed, where his clothes were. placed.

She got off the bed and walked away inexplicably.

She knew that it was wrong to go through his things.

But she couldn't control herself.

She found the wallet from his pocket, holding it in her palm, her fingertips trembling slightly. She knew that she was seeking self-inflicted pain.

Whether there was or not, if he knew that she flipped through his things, a slight cra ck would appear in their relationship. But if she didn’t look, her heart would feel even more uncomfortable and tormented!

Ingrid took a deep breath, opened her wallet, and flipped to the inner layer.

He had many cards, including debit cards, credit cards, and club membership cards.

Ingrid searched for a while and found a photo in the innermost layer.

The girl should be younger than her, with three thousand black and shiny hair that reaches her waist, a small and fair face, especially those almond-shaped autumn-water-like eyes, like clean and beautiful soaked black grapes.

The girl didn’t look as delicate as Audra, but she appeared very sweet and tender.

Ingrid’s hand, holding the photo, tightened for a moment, and her knuckles turned white.

My mind was already blank.

The tip of the nose was sour, and tears circled in the eye sockets, as if they were about to fall at any moment. | don’t know how long it had been, but Ingrid put the photo back into her wallet.

She didn’t want to stay here for another moment.

She had to go back to school.

Ingrid started packing her luggage.

After she received it, she walked towards the door.

Eden suddenly woke up and sat up, looking towards the door. “It’s so late, where are you going?” As Eden spoke, he turned off the bedside lamp.

Seeing Ingrid carrying a suitcase, he suddenly sat up and exclaimed, “What’s gotten into you?”

Eden strode over and, before Ingrid could open the door, he sna tched the suitcase from her hands.

“| wasn’t even angry yet, why are you getting angry?” Eden’s drowsiness suddenly disappeared, and he stared at Ingrid with. furrowed brows. “Didn't | not force you?”

Ingrid pursed her lips tightly and tried to sna tch the suitcase from his hand, but he instead placed it behind him and his tall. figure pressed Ingrid against the door frame.

The height difference made her look particularly petite in front of him. He placed both hands on her waist and looked down at her, saying, “I celebrated my birthday, and you have been giving

ll me a hard time for two days.” Ingrid hung her head and refused to look at him. “Eden, | suddenly feel that we are not suitable for each other...”

Eden raised an eyebrow, the large hand around her waist tightened slightly, while the other hand lifted her chin, and his cold, handsome face approached her. “Where doesn’t it suit you?”

“| felt exhausted being with you.”

Eden stared at her for a few seconds and suddenly chuckled. softly, “Being tired just shows how strong | am. You should consider yourself lucky.”

It took Ingrid quite a while to realize the meaning behind his words.

The two people answered unrelated questions, their responses were completely off-topic.

Ingrid stared at him without saying anything.

Eden grinned shamelessly and said, “If you're tired, I'll try to accommodate you a little more in the future.”

Ingrid closed her eyes and then opened them again, a layer of mist forming in her hazel eyes. “I wasn’t talking about that aspect! In fact, there are many issues between us, don’t you think?”

Eden looked at Ingrid thoughtfully and asked, “What’s the matter with you? Why are you so sentimental tonight? It’s normal for couples to have conflicts, just solve them, right?”

Chagrin 340 Sne Confronted H

Ingrid knew that Eden was right. Normally, she was not a person who made a fuss for no reason. Perhaps tonight, several things. had piled up and stimulated her fragile nerves, causing her to suddenly have an urge to break up with him.

She knew that some things still needed to be clarified.

“| met Bianca last night, and she told me that there was a photo of a girl hidden in your wallet. She also said that you are only with me because | fit a certain type, Eden. Tell me, do you also see me as just a substitute?”

Upon hearing Ingrid’s words, Eden's tall figure slightly stiffened. His cold and rigid face suddenly became a bit icy. He furrowed his brows and said displeasedly, “Did you rummage. through my wallet?”

Ingrid looked at his tense and sharp face, her heart pounding. Her hands, hanging by her side, tightened slightly into fists. “I was wrong to go through your wallet, but the focus is on the photo, Eden. Answer me!”

In this relationship, she liked him more. She knew from the beginning that she didn’t have the advantage.

She developed a relationship with him too quickly, without properly understanding him, and gave him her most precious thing! Now, reaching this point, she also felt that it was her own fault!

She liked him to the core, but she didn’t want to be together without dignity. If she was just a substitute for him, she

wouldn't become his compromise.

Eden looked at the fleeting determination in Ingrid’s eyes, his expression turning extremely grim. “Yes, the girl in the photo in my wallet is someone very important in my life.”

Upon hearing the words, Ingrid felt as if all her strength had been sucked out of her body, like being drained by a giant syringe.
