Chapter 402 Video File
"Are you nuts? That's two whole years, over seven hundred days. Jenny's always scheming. What if she gets Brad drunk or drugs him? Can you really promise Brad will stay loyal like you think? No matter how disciplined Brad is, he's still a guy."
The more Mia thought about it, the angrier she got. Ignoring my reaction, she kept going, "Just tell me, if Brad really falls into Jenny's trap and sleeps with her, can you forgive him and move on? Won't you feel gross when you and Brad are together afterward?"
Could I really let it go?
If I said I couldn't, I'd seem heartless. Brad didn't do it on purpose; he was just caught off guard by Jenny while trying to repay her for saving his life. He was a victim too.
If I said I could, it wouldn't be true to my feelings. Regardless of whether Brad did it intentionally or not, it happened. Even if I pretended to accept it graciously at the time, I wouldn't truly forget it.
It was like a piece of chocolate you had been craving your whole life, just about to be yours, but someone else ate it first and then spat it out. Could you still eat it?
No normal person could.
"In this situation, I have no other choice. Fortunately, Brad and I both trust each other, and we're both willing to work hard for each other. That's enough. Who knows what the future holds? Let's cherish the present," I replied.
Mia looked at me for a long time. Her anger gradually faded, replaced by deep sympathy and concern. She sighed softly, pinched my cheek, and said, "Love really is a torment. It's aged you. You must be feeling awful. Why don't you cry for a bit?"
I was speechless.
By the time we finished chatting, it was already past ten at night. I insisted on sleeping alone, Mia insisted on staying with me, and Yancy backed me up. Just then, I got a video file from Daniel on my phone.
[Brad asked me to give this to you. Accept it. Watch it carefully, and I promise you'll sleep well.]
As I waited for the video file to finish downloading, I sent Daniel a message: [What is this?]
[The video file is encrypted. Brad said you know the password. He recorded it alone in the bathroom without telling me, so I don't know what's in it.]
The video file being encrypted was normal, but the filming location was a bit odd. Generally, no one would hide in the bathroom to record a video unless they had a special reason.
On second thought, Brad even met Daniel secretly, so he probably couldn't find a better place to record the video than the bathroom.
I mustered all my strength to kick Mia out of my bedroom, quickly washed up, turned off the lights, and got into bed. I turned on the bedside lamp just as the video file finished uploading and started watching the video Brad had recorded.
The video file was like a mysterious surprise carrying my hopes. I felt both excited and a bit anxious.
I entered the personalized password, and the video file was unlocked. Before I could mentally prepare myself, Brad's handsome face suddenly appeared on my screen. My heart skipped a beat, and tears welled up in my eyes.
Brad had been MIA for almost half a month. Seeing his face pop up out of nowhere was overwhelming, and the tears just kept coming. It was like a long-lost wanderer finally seeing home; the excitement was indescribable.
Brad was rocking a sharp black suit, a burgundy striped tie, and a dark shirt, his eyes full of deep affection. His husky, low voice was magnetic and captivating. "Baby, long time no see. Did you miss me? I miss you so much every moment.
"I miss you wriggling like a fish in my arms at night, the familiar scent of your hair, and your legs wrapped around my waist. Without you by my side, I can't even sleep well. Jenny's demands are over the top, and I was so mad I wanted to ignore them. But she did save my life and hurt her leg in the process, maybe never being able to walk on her own again. This makes me feel indebted to her.
"Jenny said if I can't give her love, then at least give her a chance to try. No matter the outcome, she won't have any regrets. So, even though I knew this would hurt you deeply, I reluctantly agreed. Baby, I don't want to be tied to Jenny for the rest of my life because of this debt. So I agreed to her request because I don't want to owe her anything. If there's anyone in this world I don't want to owe, it's Jenny. As for what I owe you, baby, I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you, okay?
"My dearest baby, you understand me, right? If I don't repay this life-saving debt, I'll never be at peace. But it means you'll have to endure these two years with me. Baby, trust me, I swear, if I ever do anything to betray you, I'll meet a dreadful end. Be good and wait for me.
"There are so many great guys at school, but you can't pay attention to any of them. In the drawer of the bedside table, there's a ring I had custom-made for you. I wanted to find a good time to put it on your finger myself, but I haven't had the chance. Take it out and wear it yourself. If any guy approaches you, show them the ring and let them know you have a boyfriend. Be good and wear the ring.
"Baby, have you missed my body after all this time? Two years – it feels like an eternity, but it's just a moment in time. Since you can't touch me for now, I'll let you see me instead. I've been working out after work, see, my chest muscles have grown a lot, haven't they? They're so firm. And my abs, have you noticed how defined they are? They feel great."
As Brad spoke to me with his intense gaze, he gently ran his fingers over each of his abs, incredibly seductive, making me blush.
"Remember, when you miss me, just touch the screen. When I get back, I'll let you touch me as much as you want."
In the fifteen-minute video, Brad spent most of the time showing off his physique. I missed him, and his tender, affectionate eyes made me feel intoxicated. I actually reached out and touched his chest and abs on the phone screen a few times.
