Chapter 712 - Goodbye My Love…

After Jenny sighed, she looked at Lilia and asked, "Jean didn't come with you today? He also came to Jakarta, right?"

Lilia nodded. "He's going to the branch of his company in this city. After he's done, we plan to return to Surabaya together in the afternoon!"

"That soon?" There was a trace of surprise on Jenny's face, but it was only fleeting. "Aren't you planning to stay here for two days?"

Lilia smiled and shook her head. "I'm not staying here this time. There's still a lot to do at home. When we have the chance, we'll come back later!"

Hearing this, Jenny was completely helpless. Instead, she took Lilia's hand and exhorted. "Auntie will be in Surabaya from now on. If there is a problem that can't be resolved, you just have to call me. No matter what has happened, it shouldn't affect our relationship!" 

Lilia looked at Jenny with clear eyes. Today, her aunt seemed to have let go of her usual dignified appearance.

She is like any other ordinary parent, talking to them.

She thought, maybe Jenny is a good person, but only in her attitude towards her and Melissa.

As for the turmoil in the Hartanto family… She concluded that they were simply confrontations between members with different interests.

... ... 

When Lilia and Mellisa left the Irwan family home, they met Richard and his wife who were about to come in.

They were standing in front of the courtyard threshold and met the two sisters who walked out slowly. They were all shocked. "Lilia, Mellisa, when did you guys come? Are you already going to go?"

Richard and Janice looked confused, they didn't know about Lilia and Mellisa's arrival.

Before eight in the morning, they had gone to the cultural center to work, so they weren't notified.

Mellisa nodded at them. "Yes, Lilia and I are going back to Surabaya."

Richard noticed the strange attitude of his two daughters. After suppressing the heavy feelings in his heart, he asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"There's still a lot of work to do at home, but when it's all over, we can come back."

Richard and his wife looked at each other, and then walked away in silence. "Okay, then we won't hold you back. Come back home and visit us often, okay!"

"Okay, then we'll go first!"

Lilia and Mellisa nodded politely at the two of them. After that, they got into the car outside the door.

Richard and his wife stood silently and looked at the car, feeling very depressed.

Hopefully, time will heal the wound in everyone's heart.

... .

At three o'clock, Lilia and her entourage arrived at the airport by car.

Andrew wanted to go back to Surabaya with them, and Mike also followed.

He will not go with them, but he came to say goodbye.

At the airport, The Widjaya family's private jet was seen ready to take off.

Right now, Mike looked at the girl in front of him, feeling nostalgic and unable to look away.

The love that has been buried for more than ten years cannot be easily changed overnight.

Mike does not know what his future will be like, but at least, he still wants to see the figure of this woman more.

"Are you going to live in Surabaya in the future?" He looked at Mellisa and asked seriously.

Hearing this, Mellisa didn't want to hide it from him, so she answered honestly, "For now, there is still something I need to do."

Mike replied, "What is it? If you need help, let me know!"

Mellisa looked at him for a moment, then smiled and shook her head. "Not for now. But if I need it, I'll call you!"

"Okay!" A small expression appeared in Mike's eyes.

In the room, the wind was blowing rather strong.

As Mellisa tightened her coat, she took out a cigarette box from her pocket saying, "One last smoke before we go?"

"Seriously, this is why I hate you!" Mike teased, taking it naturally out of his hands. 

While smoking, neither of them spoke anymore. They just stood on the wind and enjoyed a rare day of peace.

After a while, Mellisa exhaled smoke and looked at Mike. "By the way, what are you going to do next? Are you coming back to your family again?"

Hearing this, Mike looked relaxed. He shook his head and joked as he said, "My family did forgive me, they were willing to accept me back. But like it or not, my name has become a curse. As for future plans, I haven't thought about it at all. I'm a little tired lately. I want to rest and calm down first...."

Mike wanted to leave behind everything he experienced in Jakarta. He wanted to go where no one knew, to contemplate alone and try to understand what it was like to let go of his love.

It was inevitable for him to distance himself from Mellisa.

Over the years, all his feelings and care were devoted to her.

Therefore, when taking revenge on Leila, he could become very cruel and merciless.

Now, he had done everything he could for Mellisa.

Mike believes that Mellisa doesn't need his love either.

The cigarette that was at the corner of her lips was extinguished by the wind. She dropped her hand, after taking a quick look, she said solemnly, "Mike, if you need anything in the future, you can call me anytime."

Mike's thin lips lifted slightly, and for a moment, he almost blurted out his heart.

'Can you try to love me!'

But after seeing everything, Mike could only swallow this sentence. Then he raised his eyebrows viciously, "No matter what and when, we will still be friends who take care of each other!" 

When the words fell, Mike turned around. He saw Jean and the others waiting for them outside the cabin. 

He staggered and said towards the plane, "Go, don't let them wait too long, my brother might scold me again!"

Mellisa nodded, she planned to take her cigarette on the plane and throw it away, but Mike held her hand. "Give me your cigarette butts, I'll throw them away for you."

"Thank you!"

Mellisa didn't really think about it, she immediately gave her cigarette butts. 

Mike happened to be looking at the plane, and when he saw Mellisa's movement, he clenched his fingers in an instant.

With this action, his fingers passed through the gaps between Mellisa's fingertips and held them firmly in his palms.

Her hands were slender and cold, it was the first time he held her hands this way after they met again.

When Mellisa felt her fingers being grasped, she looked surprised and instinctively wanted to let go, but she hesitated.

She didn't move, her eyes fixed on each other's hands.

If this could make him feel better, Mellisa thought it would be no big deal.

When Mike looked back. "Sorry, I took your time!"

Mellisa smiled. "It's okay. I'll go first then."

"Alright, bye!"

'Goodbye, my beloved…'

'Goodbye, the bride of my dreams…'

'I love you, but I can only stop chasing you for the sake of your happiness!'

'Goodbye Mellisa... The only woman I have ever loved!'

Standing on the spot, Mike stared at the figure of Mellisa stepping onto the plane. He slowly closed his eyes and a relieved smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Regretting his choice for a lifetime.... Maybe that was the right phrase to describe him.
