章 570: HIS BEAUTIFUL FIRST LOVE

"Am I not allowed to do so?" John returned the question as he leaned on Stefan's car. "I was waiting for her to tell me that she remembered me. Marian and I, we're poles apart in status. Her family is wealthy and there were many boys who like her. I am nothing but a simple man. I promised I'd come and get her when she's 21 but when she reached that age, I still have nothing. I don't have anything to promise to her parents. I didn't greet her because I didn't want other people to know that I am acquainted with a rich heiress. Why didn't I speak to her even after seeing the ring? It's because I felt embarrass giving her that cheap ring. Why didn't I chase her? I did. I chased after her but I guess, I was seconds too late."

Stefan didn't say anything. He only listened to the man, trying to get as much information as he could.
