Chapter 1359: Chapter 1359 How Can I Forgive You?

But how was she to accept this man who just half a month ago had hurt her so deeply!

“Emily, I need to step out for a bit, I will hand over the planning case to you tomorrow.” Camila’s line of sight shifted from Clayton’s face to Emily’s. After speaking, she turned and left as if she hadn’t heard Clayton’s words.

For a moment, Emily was also somewhat stunned but then thought it over and seemed to understand something.

No matter if this man was Clayton Howard or Lewis Harrison, it couldn’t erase the hurt he had caused Camila.

Watching her walk toward the direction of the company elevator, Clayton chased after her.

“Camila!”

But at this time, Camila had already swiftly entered the elevator. Since it was an exclusive elevator for company executives, Clayton couldn’t get in and had to take the staff elevator down instead.

Leaving the company building, Camila walked straight toward the underground parking lot, but at this moment, her arm was suddenly grasped by a strong hand!

“Camila!”

Clayton approached and firmly gripped her, knowing that he had hurt this woman very deeply.

He stepped in front of her, blocking her way, his eyes shimmering with endless anguish.

“What do I need to do for you to forgive me?” Whatever it took, he would do it, as long as she would forgive him!

His love for her remained unchanged to this day, even if such forgiveness seemed an extravagant wish, he would still wish for it till the end.

Camila looked up into his eyes, seeing the pain in his gaze, and she, how could she not feel pain too?

But the suffering she endured, could it be wiped away just by his simple apology?

She looked at him, her expression cold, yet undeniably, in the depths of her dark eyes, Clayton could see her present torment.

“Forgive you? How can I forgive? It’s been five years, do you even know how much pain I’ve suffered these five years… I thought you were dead, the moment you fell from that cliffside, I felt as if my world had collapsed, everything was gone. Can you even comprehend that feeling?”

As she spoke, tears involuntarily slid down her cheeks, quietly and without sound, “And when you reappeared before me, do you know how thrilled I was… But in the end, you treated me like a stranger, coldly pushing me away… Do you understand how much it hurt me inside? How desperate I felt?”

Watching the tears fall down her cheeks, Clayton wanted to reach out and touch them, wanted to say something, but in the end, his hand seemed too weak to lift, his voice stuck in his throat, unable to say a word.

He could imagine the pain she felt at that time, and he deeply regretted that he had lost his memory for five years, forgotten her for five years. All their past memories had been deeply etched, yet he couldn’t recall any of it, completely and utterly erasing her from his memory!

“Camila…” he choked out, his eyes, like ink-jade stars, were now reddened, “I know I forgot you for five years, but I didn’t want to, I really didn’t!”

How could he bear to forget her, how could he!

But some things, regrettably, were beyond his control.

Now, recalling everything, he only wanted her to come back to him, wanted only to be with her and Belinda again!

“You ‘didn’t want to’… Do you think a simple ‘I didn’t want to’ or ‘I’m sorry’ is enough!? Do you know… because of you, I almost lost Belinda, and because of you, my dad is still lying in the hospital!? I will not forgive you, not in this lifetime!”
