Chapter 276 Meeting Your Family

In the company, Heidy sat at her desk and thought that she came across Hearst. Thinking of his
attitude, Heidy felt strange. She felt that he wasn't really cold to her. But after a second thought, she
thought that it was also possible. After all, the reason why they broke up at the very beginning was that
Hearst was in love with both Cathy and her.

However, she firmly believed that Hearst had betrayed their marriage. Even if he still loved her, as long
as he had fallen in love with others, there was no way for them to be together. She was stubborn in
love and it was her principle.

Jessica came to the office. She walked up to Heidy with a smile on her face. "Heidy, do you have any
dates at noon?"

Heidy looked at her and said with a smile, "How could I have a date now. I'm free."

Hearing her words, Jessica smiled and said, "I have found a suitable man for you. I plan to arrange
blind date for you. Why don't you go and have a look? If you like, you can go out with him. If you don't
like it, you can treat him as a normal friend. There is nothing to lose."

Heidy knew that Jessica was worried that she would be single for the rest of her life. Jessica always
hoped that she could find her own happiness. However, Heidy still couldn't move on. "I'm good. Blind
dates are not my thing," Heidy refused in an indirect way.

Jessica didn't give up as usual. She said seriously, "Heidy, for the sake of Elsa, you should go with me.
After all, it was better for a child to grow up in a complete family. Even if you marry someone else one
day, that man was her biological father. But now she was still young and it was easy for her to accept
him. As long as he loves you and the kid, that's enough."

Heidy wanted to say no, but Jessica pleaded, "Heidy, just say yes and go to see someone. If you don't
like him, I won't force you, okay?"



Seeing that Jessica kept persuading her, Heidy reluctantly replied, "Okay, I'll go to see him. Just as you
said, maybe I should start a new relationship. Otherwise, people will think that I don't want to leave
Hearst, and that I will pester him."

Jessica gave her a thumbs up and smiled. "Great! That's the spirit! Tomorrow is your birthday. How are
you going to celebrate it?"

'Birthday?' It was not until Jessica mention it that she realized that tomorrow was her birthday. In the
past, they had planned to get married on her birthday, but now... "I have work to do tomorrow so we
can't celebrate it," said Heidy with a slight smile.

Looking at her wired expression, it suddenly occurred to Jessica that tomorrow was still a special day,
and she said apologetically, "Sorry, I just forgot that tomorrow is the date of my original wedding."

"It's okay. It's all over now," said Heidy with a slight smile. She was about to say something, but she felt
a headache.

Seeing that, Jessica hurried forward and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Do you have a headache
again?"

Heidy frowned and said, "Yes. It has been like this since Hearst brought the antidote to me. He said it
would cause headache and I would need half a year to get rid of it."

Jessica murmured in confusion. "This is such a strange antidote. Normally, after you took the antidote,
you would fully recover from your disease. How could you have a headache? Did someone drug you
again?"

With a faint smile on her face, Heidy said, "Well, don't worry about it. Where should we go?"



With a smile on her face, Jessica held her arm and said, "Let's go. I'll go with you. I have to keep an
eye on your blind date for you in case that there might be something wrong. At the same time, I have to
help you watch him carefully."

Heidy raised her eyebrows and said jokingly, "Of course. How dare you leave me alone there." While
speaking, they had already walked outside.

Maybe because Heidy still didn't want to have a date right now, although the date Jessica arranged for
her was handsome and successful in his career, Heidy was not interested at all. They just had a meal
together.

In the restaurant, Heidy said gloomily, "It's not easy to find the right one."

Jessica encouraged, "Don't give up. It takes time. You are a great woman, and it should not be difficult
to find a man who treats you well. Next time, except for his appearance and career, we should pay
more attention to his personality, which is quite important."

When Heidy was about to answer, she heard Kevin's voice. "Heidy, Jessica, why are you here?"

Following the sound, they saw Kevin in casual clothes, looking at them in confusion. "We are having a
blind date," said Jessica directly.

Hearing that, Kevin frowned and said with a light smile, "Well, Heidy, could you do me a favor?"

Hearing his words and thinking of how nice Kevin was to her, Heidy nodded. "Of course you can.
What's that?"

"My parents forced me to get marry. They wanted me to take a girlfriend home. So, I want you to do me
a favor and help me out here," explained Kevin.



Jessica looked at him in surprise and said with a smile, "Your parents are nagging you about this too?
Of course it's a good idea. What do you say, Heidy?"

Jessica always thought that Kevin was good choice for Heidy. It would be nice if Heidy could be with
him. The only bad thing was that Kevin and Hearst were good friends. However, it was not a bad idea if
they could irritate Hearst.

Heidy thought for a while and replied smilingly, "Okay. No problem."

"Okay," said Kevin. "I'll come to see you tomorrow. I have something else to do. See you guys later."
With these words, he nodded to them, and then walked out of the room.

The next day, Heidy walked slowly alone on the street. Today was her birthday. A month ago, she was
looking forward to it. But when the day finally came, everything had changed. She walked lonely on the
street with mix feelings.

Walking through the crowd, she could not stop thinking about Hearst But she knew that she should
move on. She didn't want herself to be immersed in the past memory forever, unable to extricate
herself from it. If so, it will be pathetic.

Just as she was walking, the sky suddenly began to rain. Seeing this, she rushed forward with her
hands covering her head. She ran under a house and shook off the water on her body. When she
raised her head, she was surprised to find that Hearst was standing next to her. It seemed that he
came here to take shelter from the rain.

It was also the last thing Hearst would expect to see her here. He was shocked. Seeing her clothes
wet, he wanted to say something. But he didn't know what to say. "What a coincidence." There was a
slight smile on his face when he spoke.

Hearing his words, Heidy said indifferently, "Yes, it is. Do you remember what day it is today?"



Of course, Hearst remembered it and he had been looking forward to it more than anymore before.
"Heidy..." There was a silence.

"The past is in the past. We have struggled in this relationship for so long. It's time to have a closure.
I'm not lying to you. Until today, I'm still in love with you. And I have never given up on you." Heidy
gestured for him to stop talking.

Lowering his head and holding his fists tightly, Hearst tried his best to calm himself down and said, "I'm
so sorry."

With a bitter smile on her lips, Heidy said, "You don't have to feel sorry for me, because I decide to
have a new life from today. I will forget you and bury you in my memory. Even if we meet again in the
future, we are just strangers."

Hearing her heartless words, Hearst should be happy. But his heart only filled with sadness. "Well,
that's good," Hearst said in a low voice. "I owe you a lot, and I can only pay you back in the next life."

"No, we're good," Heidy decisively refused. "If I could choose, I wish I wouldn't meet you in my next life.
I can change anything that had happened in our lives. After all, you met Cathy and fell in love with her
just because you went to find the antidote for me. I don't think we are meant for each other."

Thinking of that, Hearst frowned and asked, "Will you get a headache occasionally?"

Sometimes, Hearst hated Mrs. Miao so much that she had added other herbs to the antidote. And all
the natives of the Hmong couldn't figure out what kind of herb it was. Therefore, he had to obey her
order and leave Heidy.

"It's okay. I can handle it," said Heidy quietly.



"Half a year later, you will be fine," said Hearst. Six months later, he would find a way to get the real
antidote to keep her away from the pain completely.

Heidy nodded and looked ahead indifferently, waiting for the rain to stop. Her phone vibrated. Taking
out the phone, she answered, "Hello..."

A few moments later, Kevin arrived in his car. Kevin pulled over the car and walked towards them with
an umbrella in his hand. "Hearst?" Kevin looked at him in surprise.

It never occurred to Hearst that the person who picked Heidy up would be Kevin. He collected himself
quickly after a flash of surprise in his eyes, and said, "I just bumped into her here."

Waking forward, Heidy said with a smile, "Let's go. We can't keep your parents waiting too long."

Kevin nodded. With a moment of hesitation, he looked towards Hearst, but he seemed calm. Seeing
this, Kevin nodded to him, and then left with Heidy.

Seeing them leave, Hearst, who had been listening to their conversation just now, suddenly felt his
heart missed a beat, and a flicker of loneliness appeared in his eyes. "Is she meeting his parents now?
It is fast..."
