Chapter 988: Chapter 1015: Old Matters Revisited (1)
Mia Ginger was taken aback for a moment, looked at Koa Jackson, and curved her lips into a smile.
Koa Jackson also noticed Talia Tong, thought for a moment, and said to Mia Ginger, "Let’s talk at home, it’s very late."
"Okay." Mia Ginger nodded her head with her lips pressed together.
Talia Tong seemed a bit embarrassed too, and looking at Mia Ginger, she softly said, "Sorry for taking up your time."
"It’s fine." Mia Ginger wrapped her arm around hers and walked to the main road, comforting her, "It’s late, you should head back. Take a shower, get a good night’s sleep, and when you wake up tomorrow, everything will be alright, the sun will still rise as usual."
Talia Tong was stunned, looked at her raised eyebrows, and said with pursed lips, "You’re very different from before."
"People always change." Mia Ginger shrugged.
Talia Tong nodded, smiled at Koa Jackson, and turned to leave.
Koa Jackson glanced at her back, then refocused his eyes on Mia Ginger, saying in a calm voice, "She lives here too?"
"Yeah, her dad bought her a place here."
"Is that so?" Koa Jackson nodded understandingly and urged her to drive home.
Mia Ginger drove quickly, called out to Talia Tong as she passed her, and Talia Tong just watched her leave.
Her mood was indescribable.
When she agreed to Daniel Davis, her words came from her heart.
Yet at this moment, she still couldn’t escape the heart-wrenching pain.
The bitterness of unrequited love, she had tasted for a whole seven years.
Those past scenes, like slow-motion in a movie, appeared one by one before her eyes, as if she could see her life over these seven years, from fifteen to twenty-two, day and night, year after year, endlessly.
She was a chubby girl.
Her parents and elders loved her, calling her cute.
She thought she was really cute, never realizing that those kind compliments came from love.
She wasn’t initially unconfident or weak.
It was all because of Camden River.
She silently liked him and naturally knew how many girls at school liked him, each more beautiful than the last, making her feel inferior, going home at night, lying in bed, unable to stop pinching her cheeks and belly.
She went on a diet for a while, secretly searched for weight loss methods on her phone, but didn’t dare to worry her parents.
Every time after eating a delicious and hearty meal, she would sneak into the bathroom and make herself vomit bit by bit.
Eventually, she developed anorexia. She indeed became thinner, but at the same time, her mom also fell ill from worrying.
They both spent their winter break in the hospital, didn’t even have a proper New Year’s celebration; her weight went back up a bit, and she dared not diet anymore. She started exercising instead, running every morning and evening, sometimes even encountering Camden River, but they were like strangers.
In those four years, because of him, she would gain weight and lose weight, until finally, she stabilized at ninety pounds.
She was so thrilled about this weight that she couldn’t even sleep.
Loving him became a habit, cherishing her thoughts of him became a habit too, and this habit seemed to have seeped into her bones and life over time, becoming impossible to purge.
Camden River was like that beam of light in her life.
To chase him, she finally became the person she is now.
At a height of 164 cm, she weighed only 44 kg, with long and smooth hair and a healthy body, from skin to blood without a single defect.
Clean and youthful.
