My Departure, His Regret Chapter 1

After I became a regular caregiver, Orlando Gardner asked me to kneel down and serve him food.

At this time, his childhood sweetheart said, "It seems like you're getting bolder and bolder, huh? You forgot that you were a caregiver before."

My face turned cold. Alicia Quinn immediately felt wronged. "Don't be angry. I just said a joke. Besides, isn't it true that you used to be a caregiver for Orlando?"

Orlando not only did not help me, but also accused me.

"When I was disabled before, you also knelt down to feed me. But now that I'm better, why are you so stubborn? You can stay in this house if you can, or get out if you can't."

I immediately threw my apron, packed my bags and left.

Breaking up without hesitation.

——

It was snowing outside when he drove me away. I did not even have time to put on my down jacket, dragging my luggage and walking away.

When I opened the door, I even heard him shouting. "Serena, once you get out of this door, don't ever come back." In response to him was the sound of my door closing, as well as the sound of him smashing plates.

I did not want to care about these things. In Orlando's eyes, I was a caregiver from beginning to end.

I took my few belongings and bought a plane ticket to Caspian. Before leaving, I took out my mobile phone and called my former director. "What you said before about wanting to invite me over, does it still count?"

"Of course. Zen IT has been looking forward to your joining us."

I nodded, then burst into tears. The person on the other end of the phone sighed and asked me, "Have you thought it through? You don't want your boyfriend anymore?"

"No ...."

"Then when you arrive, I will send someone to pick you up and the company here will assign you accommodation."

"Okay, thank you, Ms. Sherman."

"Actually, I'm glad that you can move on and your life no longer revolves around a man."

After hanging up the phone, I felt relieved. In just a few seconds, Orlando called me. "Where did you put the Band-Aid at home? Alicia's hand is injured. Tell me where it is."

"Orlando, that's your home, can't you find it yourself?" I was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so I hung up the phone immediately.

After a while, the unknown phone number called. "Serena, it's clearly you who didn't give everyone face today and caused a very unpleasant scene. Everyone is so tolerant of you. Alicia told me that she has forgiven you. You should come back and apologize to her. Let's just forget about this."

I found his words of charity really funny. "Orlando, do you remember that I knelt down to feed you because you were disabled? At that time, that childhood sweetheart of you left you and walked away. So why did she come back after you got better?"

My words silenced him for a moment, but he impatiently said, "Stop making noise. It would be too much to make noise again. You know, you were just a caregiver from the beginning."

"I was indeed a caregiver when I took care of you, but I won't be anymore. Let's end it."

"Serena, I can tell you that there must be a limit to any conflicts. You are the only caregiver. I am willing to marry you because you have taken care of me for two years."

I was too lazy to listen to him and the sound of the plane's announcement came just in time.

I blocked him again. I could not remove my SIM card, otherwise I would not be able to contact the director of Zen IT, Charlotte Sherman, after the plane landed in Caspian.

Three hours later, Charlotte came to pick me up in person at the exit.

"Congratulations, you have escaped from the sea of suffering."

Charlotte was a thoughtful person. After she helped me complete the onboarding procedures, she also took me to a welcome dinner.

As soon as finished the dinner, I turned on my mobile phone again. There were 124 calls and all from the same city. I knew who they were from without thinking.
