Chapter 1358
"Hey, don't be sad," Fiona said, freeing one hand to give Ashton a gentle hug.
How was she supposed to get through this? She could only hope that time would help her heal. People always said losing someone you love is a pain that sticks with you forever. Had Fiona ever really let go?
When Kenny heard the news, he dropped everything and rushed back. Fiona returned to Emerald Pool alone. Janna had been asleep for a while. Fiona stood in the spacious living room, suddenly missing the days she spent with Darwin at Starry Century. Without a second thought, she turned around, got in the elevator, and drove herself to Starry Century.
The housekeeper still came by regularly to clean, so the place was spotless. It was already past three in the morning. Exhausted, Fiona saw a neatly folded blanket on the sofa. She walked over, pulled it over herself haphazardly, curled up on the sofa, and soon fell asleep.
Winter was freezing. Fiona remembered the cold days she spent here with Darwin. So much time had passed, and so many things had happened. She realized she had gradually forgotten Darwin's faults from back then. The grudges she couldn't let go of seemed to have faded from her mind. She used to think she'd never be able to let go, even if Darwin came back into her life.
She fell into a deep sleep, but tears kept rolling down her cheeks. She thought to herself, "Time, please pass faster. I hope that when I wake up, it'll be the time when he returns healthy and safe."
Fiona was too tired and too cold. She couldn't get warm under the blanket. The next day, she was woken up by the ringing of her phone.
She glanced at the time; it was ten in the morning. She sat up, feeling achy from the soft sofa. She really didn't know how Darwin managed to sleep on it for all those years.
The call was from the marketing director. Fiona listened quietly to what they said and replied, "I'll be at the office in half an hour. Have the materials ready and meet me in the conference room."
After hanging up, Fiona stretched her stiff neck. She quickly went to the bathroom to take a shower. Then she went to the walk-in closet and grabbed a suit Darwin had bought her last year to change into. After she left, Darwin would buy clothes in her size every year, filling up her part of the closet. This year, he lost his memory, so he didn't do it.
Fiona changed into the clothes, feeling they were a bit loose. She pinched her waist, realizing she needed to eat more and exercise more; she couldn't afford to lose any more weight. Thinking this, she put on a coat and drove to the Solomon Group.
As soon as she parked the car, Christopher came up to open the door for her. They were about to go upstairs when the crisp sound of high heels came from behind.
"Mrs. Solomon!" Hearing this voice, Fiona stopped and turned to look back.
