Chapter 442 Became Neighbors

After having broken up with Anthony, Lisa had dated several men in the United States. But the vacuum left in her heart by his absence just wasn't filled by any one of them. It was not until then did she realize how much she loved him. Never would she be happy if she couldn't spend the rest of her life with him. Before it was too late, she had to take action.

After careful consideration, she decided to come to Y City and made up her mind to pursue Anthony again after the way she had ended things between them. No matter how difficult it would be, she wouldn't give up.

"Past is in the past," Anthony replied indifferently, staring at Lisa. "You are pretty and well educated. There will a number of men lining to date you. We have split up and you must accept it. Please move on and put an end to this pointless chatter." If Lisa had returned to Y City with him, their relationship might have been cemented. They might have even been married after receiving blessings and support from Anthony's grandpa. The moment she refused to come to Y City earlier, their relationship had ended completely. Besides, it was not fair to accept Lisa while embracing his developing feelings towards Autumn. That was why he consistently refused Lisa's request throughout their meeting.

"But you are the only one in my heart. I can't throw myself into starting over another relationship not when I want to fix ours," With a determined look Lisa went ahead and said. "To be completely honest, I have already accepted Y Hospital's offer. From now on, I will be a doctor in the emergency department of your hospital. We are already colleagues. I am happy to have the opportunity to work with you!"

Lisa then changed her tone and began to plead with imploring eyes," Anthony, it doesn't matter if you don't love me anymore. I am telling you that I will pursue you until you change your mind and agree to date me. I'm not giving up on us."

"Are you out of your mind?" Anthony couldn't understand why she was so persistent in her efforts to mend their relationship. In fact he would have been happy and content about them being together but now it was too late. Withdrawing his feelings about Autumn seemed impossible. Even though it was unlikely that they would end up together, he still wouldn't get involved with Lisa again. He was just frustrated with her constant persuasion. He stared at her in disbelief and tried to speak sense to her yet again," You have excellent opportunities in your own country, opportunities that people dream of in our profession. And you walked away from those and decided to settle here? You are so naive to make such a hasty decision."

"Why can't I work here? Is it because you are here?" Lisa replied nonchalantly," Besides, I am a mixed-race woman. I know, I looked like a European or an American. However, no one can deny the fact that half of my blood is the same as yours. I came here to lend my medical skills for my country. Is there something wrong with that?"

Anthony found it hard to respond to that, so he chose to remain silent.

At this point she was enjoying the conversation, preening herself like a winner of a debate. Lisa's proud tone guarantee

holding their wedding ceremony was widely covered in all media outlets including newspapers. Autumn was also leading a good and happy life with Charles. 'I am hated like a rat crossing the street. I hid from everyone and dared not to come out of my shelter.'

The more she compared her life with Chris and Autumn, the angrier she felt. She cursed them in her mind, 'Why are they living happily while I suffer so much? Autumn marrying Charles is the main reason of all my grief and doom.

Has she not appeared, Charles wouldn't have abandoned me even. I would have been Mrs. Lu and living a happy life. My career too would have reached a new level.'

Rachel blamed Autumn for everything she had experienced. She even fancied taking the money Roger had promised and moving abroad. After she got made enough money and thought out a detailed plan, she would come back to take revenge. Autumn would pay the price.

The moment she snapped out of her thoughts and returned to reality, she saw the door open. She stood up to welcome Roger, only to find Chris in the doorway. It was too late for her to realize she was trapped.

She cursed at Roger in her mind and blamed herself, 'Roger is a playboy. How could I believe such a poor lie that he would give me money?'

In fact Rachel's stupid behavior was understandable. No one helped her. Like a drowning man at a life heir, she wasn't expecting Roger's offer to be the straw that broke the camel's back. This time, she would lose everything.

Chris was glad to see Rachel there. After putting on a cheerful smile, she greeted her," Here you are."

Rachel took her sunglasses and face mask on the table and walked towards the door. She didn't utter a single word, let alone say goodbye to Chris.

"Why are you leaving? You just got here." Chris stopped Rachel and requested," We haven't seen each other for quite a long time. Let's have a heart to heart talk today just in case I never find you again."

"We have nothing to talk about," Rachel pushed Chris away and impatiently said," I have something else to do so there is no time to waste talking with you here."
