Trapped in the Residual Warmth of Past Love

I had a rare good night's sleep in the large flat in the city center.

I bought this with the money I saved from my salary.

I had been running the company with him until I had the miscarriage.

I found out I was pregnant after a drinking party.

But it was too late. The child could not be saved after all.

The doctor said that it would be difficult for me to have children of my own in the future.

"Ruby, without children, it's convenient for us to enjoy our own life."

He held me and comforted me all night.

From then on, he asked me to withdraw from the company on the grounds that I needed to rest and recuperate.

And Angela was the one he personally picked out shortly before the drinking party and chosen to work in the company as his secretary.

I also asked him why he chose Angela at first sight among so many younger schoolmates.

"Don't you think she looks a lot like you?

"I believe that if she joins the company, she will be as capable as you."

No.

She was much more capable than I am.

No matter how big or small his matters were, Angela could always arrange them just right.

Before long, our schoolmates in the company all said that Angela was a talent.

Gradually, I became more and more distant from them.

At the same time, Angela completely replaced me in the company.

When I woke up, my phone was still silent.

After some hesitation, I called my best friend, Christina Walker, whom I hadn't contacted for a long time.

"Are you still working at the law firm? I want to do divorce counseling."

Christina was not surprised and quickly handed me a lawyer's business card.

"Yohan Baker?"

"It's me."

In the famous coffee shop, he looked younger than I thought.

Before coming here, I checked the information and found that he had never filed for divorce before.

Sensing my confusion, he looked at me calmly.

"Ms. King, I have indeed never taken on a divorce case.

"But that doesn't mean I won't."

I smiled lightly and got down to business with him.

Suddenly, Xavier came.

He walked past my seat and bought two cups of coffee.
