Chapter 271: Where is she?
When he moved from his previous place and got a job, all her memories stayed behind.
He got rid of their pictures and almost every other thing that reminded him of her. His brain assured him that she would leave his mind if he did that. That his obsession with her would disintegrate along with their memories.
Yet, no matter how he tried or what he did, he could not get rid of this particular picture. In the end, he flipped it around and fixed it in the photo frame such that he could not see her face. But keeping it on his desk never failed to be the constant reminder of what they once were.
’’Look at you! You are idling at the workplace," the voice brought Maxim out of his reverie.
Maxim placed the photo frame on his desk and glanced at the newcomer.
’’What was that?" Alex eyed the back of the photo frame.
He remembered that the last time he was there, he had broken this photo frame to spite Maxim, and much to his surprise, Maxim had gotten involved in a fight with him.
’’None of your business,’’ Maxim’s brows tugged together when his gaze landed on Alex’s bloodied shirt.
Alex followed his gaze, ’’Coincidentally, I went to Vegas to chill a bit. Guess who I bumped into there? Guess?!"
"Not interested," Maxim folded his sleeves and prepared to leave.
"Boring," Alex scoffed, "I bumped into that devil’s spawn who caused our misery. Dr. Rick was similarly chilling in a nightclub. And the rest is history,’’ Alex explained with a shrug before proceeding to take out a cigarette from his pocket.
