Chapter 2

Amanda, Amanda Sweeney.

The woman who stole my fiancé was also Jacob's white moonlight. It turned out that Jacob had never forgotten her and even pretended to be affectionate to marry me. I underestimated his love for Amanda.

The phone fell out of the man's belt with a clang and I bent down to pick it up and a message popped up on the screen.

"Thank you, Jacob, for blocking my drink tonight. I can't take the necklace you gave me, it's too expensive."

The next second I saw Amanda's updates on Twitter, "Love is priceless." The picture was a dazzling necklace, the only one in the world that was bought by a mysterious rich man for 100 million dollars in the news.

I knew Amanda sent it to me specifically.

This week Jacob was too busy to eat, so he had a stomachache and was sent to the emergency room, but when he opened his eyes, he flew to England. I was angry and distressed that he was willing to give up his life for work.

Later I learned that he was going to attend an auction. Even if he couldn't straighten his back due to pain, he had to bid for the most precious necklace in the world and dedicate it to his white moonlight.

I entered the lock screen password for some reason. After entering the last number, the lock was successfully unlocked. It was Amanda's birthday. Jacob never let me look at his phone, saying that we should leave each other personal space.

As soon as I unlocked it, Amanda's bright smile came into my eyes. No wonder Jacob's eyes would be inexplicably gentle every time he unlocked his phone.

I clicked on the album, all the names were the same.

[Amanda, 10 years old] [Amanda, 11 years old]... [Amanda, 25 years old]

Each album recorded Amanda's smiling face at different times. None of the thousands of photos belonged to me, not even to him. Only Amanda. Just like his heart, there was only Amanda from beginning to end.

Then I opened the memo turned out to be Jacob's diary.

[20×× Sunny, Amanda scratched her leg today by a branch. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have planted trees in the yard. ]

[20×× Sunny, Amanda got married today. As long as she is happy, everything I do is worth it. I live to make her happy. ]

[20×× Rainy, I got married. The moment I saw Amanda in the audience, I wished that the person standing next to me was her. ]

The car just drove into the yard. Looking up at the bare yard, my hands and feet were cold all over.

There were originally two peach trees in the yard, which were transplanted by Jacob from the old house of the Lovato Family. They were planted by my father when I was ten years old. Whenever I see them, I feel that my father had never left and he was still with me.

But suddenly one day, the roots of the two trees that were originally full of peaches rotted inexplicably. Jacob hugged me and coaxed me for three days and three nights with tears streaming down my face. Now I know that it was him who destroyed the only thought my father left for me.

The message from his assistant popped up,

[Mr. Nolan, according to your instructions, your will has been made and all your property will be left to Miss Amanda.]

[It will take effect only after you sign it.]

I seemed to see in the hazy tears.

The man who hugged me affectionately and promised me at the funeral that year.

"Louisa, I will give you a home and everything I have belongs to you."

As I putting Jacob on the bed, I didn't take off his shoes and take care of him as I did in the past, but I turned around and went directly to the guest room. When I closed my eyes, all I could think of was how he loved me over the years.

The morning sun shone on me and I opened my eyes to meet Jacob's gentle eyes. He leaned over and gently kissed me on the forehead.
