Chapter 1400: 1399: Third Month After Breaking Up with the Little Rascal

...Hangs up the phone.

Charlotte Knight’s eyes were wet with tears as she fell into Alexander Kingsley’s arms.

He wasn’t particularly good at comforting people; to be precise, he was only good at comforting rascals. For the first time, he found himself at a loss as a woman cried in his arms.

"Don’t cry, what’s wrong?" He didn’t know what Lucas Knight had said to her.

Judging by past management, could it be that the Crown Prince had been harsh to her?

Did he scold her with an authoritative tone, telling her if she loves him or not?

"Stop crying, it won’t look good with your eyes all swollen..."

"Oh..." As Alexander Kingsley teased, she cried even more but also managed to smile, "Alexander Kingsley... you actually said I don’t look good..."

"You look good, very good—"

"Snowy sister looks the best—"

"That’s more like it! By the way, Alexander brother, where’s Carla?" She asked casually, then realized she was being nosy and quickly added, "I... I didn’t mean anything else, I just miss her too much!"

After all, they’ve known each other for years.

Now things have changed!

How could she not miss her?

Back then, Charlotte Knight knew how much Alexander adored her. It had been a long time since they’d last seen each other, and Charlotte guessed that the two probably had no chance.

"Her..." He smiled silently, a smile tinged with bitterness, lit a cigarette and took a puff, "She returned home, she’s in the Sovereign Capital, but we split!"

Or rather...

Maybe he and Carla were never truly together!

He hardly understood why things had come to this?

And back then... what did all that mean?

He vaguely remembered the girl he once knew, innocent and bright, straightforward and passionate; now, the longer they’ve been apart, the more he misses her.

Although it’s only been two or three months, he couldn’t help but wonder when his patience and self-control had crumbled like this.

"I’m sorry!" Charlotte Knight wished she could tear her mouth apart, why did she have to poke at people’s sore spots?

But then again, she really hoped they would be together, just as one dreams of walking hand in hand to the end of time.

"Alexander brother, do you think she’s not good?"

"No; she’s quite good." He replied.

"Then why don’t you go find her? Since she’s good, why did you break up with her? Alexander brother, I think she does love you, because you were together for so long back then; if a girl doesn’t like you, she wouldn’t..."

Her words hit right at Alexander Kingsley’s heart, like a sharp knife leaving it bleeding.

He took a breath: "Do you know how long I’ve looked for her? For three years..." A full three years.

Couldn’t find her, searched desperately;

When he couldn’t see her, he went crazy with longing.

When he truly found her, truly saw her, his heart quieted down, he calmed down, but no, clearly the one at fault was her, the one who left without saying goodbye was her.

Asking himself, when did he ever wrong her while they were together?

Called out her name gently, held her close with fear of causing pain, what else could he do?

Did he cheat on her, betray her or something? None of it!

The air seemed to cool a few degrees, Lieutenant Li sensed the tension and immediately stepped forward: "Admiral sir, Miss Charlotte, the weather doesn’t look too good, it might rain..."

Everyone looked up at the sky: "..."

Clear skies, as pristine as washed.

Lieutenant Li, your eyesight is really bad!

The weather was clearly very bright, the sun warm like no other, how does it look like rain!?

This truly is the real-life version of speaking nonsense with your eyes open...
