Chapter 100.
Jovana forced a smile, got up, and said softly, “I’m a bit tired, I’ll go upstairs first.”
The hurt in Jovana’s eyes stabbed Armando in the chest. It felt no different than being stabbed with a knife.
He got up instinctively and stood in front of her, wanting to hug her, “Vana, I was wrong. You can yell at me or hit me, just don’t keep it all inside, okay?”

The cool minty smell hit her. Jovana used to love this scent the most and thought it felt safe, but now it just made her nose sting.
“Let go!”
Jovana coldly pushed him away, but Armando was too stubborn and too strong. She just couldn’t push him off.
Jovana frowned, tried to pull his wrist, then suddenly felt something and her hand froze.
Where’s your bracelet?”
She looked up and asked him, her eyes empty and hurt. She wasn’t really paying attention then and didn’t notice his wrist was bare.
Armando paused for a moment and couldn’t help curling his right hand.”The bracelet…”
He never forgot that bracelet. Jovana went through a lot to get it for him. He treasured it like crazy and wouldn’t even take it off when he showered or slept.
So how exactly did it disappear?
A couple of days ago it was still on my wrist, maybe I hooked up with Juliette that night, but after that, it ended up with her.
was planning to go to her place and have a good look today, but then the whole Glory Fencing Club thing happened, so it got lelayed.
Lost?”
ovana’s eyes were blank, her mind drifting. She didn’t know how she said this. Her heart hurt so much that even breathing was
painful.
Armando looked flustered, “No, it should have been left in the office or the study. I’ll look for it later, I’m sure I can find it!”
!…
Ovana’s head felt foggy, she couldn’t hear what he was saying anymore, and didn’t want to listen to his lame excuses.
She still remembered that during the time they started the business, Armando left early and came back late every day, had a lot of social events, and had to deal with a lot of things every day.
He had a lot of social pressure, and with the anxiety, he ended up having heart problems.
She was worried sick, tried everything she could. Someone who never believed in religion even went to church to pray for her,
knelt for seven days, messed up both knees in the end, and finally got that safety bracelet.
The priest at the church saw she was a frail woman and tried several times to persuade her to go back.
She still stuck with it, for Armando.
And he just threw away the bracelet like that.
It was like I lost her.
Simple, casual.
Jovana swallowed the taste of blood in her throat, smiled and said, “It’s nothing, just a bracelet. If it’s lost, it’s lost…”
Armando’s heart skipped a beat and he panicked for a second. When he came to, Jovana had already turned and gone up the stairs.

“Vana!”
He went to get someone, but Jovana moved faster and went straight back to the bedroom and locked the door.
He knocked on the door, never felt so nervous before, “Vana, the bracelet isn’t lost, you got it for me, how could I lose it, don’t overthink… Vana?”
Jovana leaned against the door, just a few centimeters away from him, and cried her heart out.
Her true heart was trampled by him and left full of wounds.

Jovana tried hard to hold back, but Armando still heard a faint sob. His hand froze as he was about to knock, and he couldn’t help but slap himself.
Jovana was stubborn and headstrong, and she almost never cried.
Before she married him, even though her family wasn’t that well-off and she came from a single-parent home, her dad and grandma never treated her badly.
When it came to him, I ended up being treated so unfairly.
How did he promise her back then?
Armando rubbed his face hard, blaming himself. He couldn’t face her before he found that bracelet.
“Vana, I definitely found the bracelet.”
“Don’t cry, it was my fault, I messed up, I’ll find it back and get on my knees to apologize to you.”
“And that woman at the hospital, when I woke up, I would definitely give you an explanation, I wouldn’t let you suffer at all.”
But it was always you who made me feel wronged…
Jovana looked up at the ceiling, tears welling up in her eyes.
Armando knew she wouldn’t talk even if she heard him, so after saying a few more things to himself, he took his phone out of his pocket and went to the study.
