On a morning in Taipei, Evan stood in front of Victoria's apartment, with both determination and hesitation in his heart.
Taking a deep breath, he gently pressed the doorbell. The door of the apartment opened, and Victoria's face appeared before him, clearly surprised by Evan's arrival.
"Victoria, we need to talk," Evan's voice was firm, but also revealed a hint of weariness.
Victoria furrowed her brow lightly, her gaze somewhat wary, but she still opened the door, gesturing for Evan to come in.
The living room of the apartment is filled with the morning sunlight, illuminating every corner of the room. Evan sits on the sofa, gazing directly at Victoria with a serious expression on his face.
"I know everything, Victoria," Evan's voice carries a hint of sadness, "about you and other men, about the financial transactions, and more."
Victoria's face changed, and she tried to remain calm: "Evan, I don't know what you're talking about. You must be mistaken."
Evan shook his head gently and took out a report from his pocket: "No, Victoria. This is all true. I hired a private detective. These are the evidence."
Victoria's eyes flashed with a hint of panic as she tried to explain, "Evan, this is not what you think. I can explain."
"Evan, I can explain. It's all a misunderstanding," Victoria's voice carried a sense of urgency.
Evan slowly stood up and gazed firmly at Victoria. "I don't want to hear your explanation, Victoria. I just want to know one thing - is the child's father me?"
Victoria's expression became complicated, she hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered her head. "No, it's not you."
Evan's face turned pale, and his body seemed to lose strength all at once. He felt a sense of emptiness and disappointment, but also a feeling of relief.
"Why? Why would you do this?" Evan's voice was low, tinged with a hint of despair.
Victoria's eyes filled with tears, her voice trembling: "I... I need money, Evan. I just want a better life. I never meant to hurt you."
Evan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then opened them and looked at Victoria: "I used to truly love you, Victoria. But now, I just want to leave it all behind."
He turned and walked towards the door without looking back. Victoria sat on the sofa, with a hint of regret and helplessness in her eyes.
Evan walked out of the apartment, feeling like he had just woken up from a heavy dream.
The sunlight filtered through the thin clouds and sprinkled onto Evan's face, bringing a hint of warmth. Although his mood was heavy, there was also a sense of release and relaxation. He knew that he had finally faced the truth, which, although cruel, was also liberating.
Evan strolled through the bustling streets of Taipei, amidst the hustle and bustle of traffic and people coming and going. Although there was still some confusion and pain in his heart, there was more anticipation for the future and hope for a new beginning.
Walking along, Evan's steps unconsciously brought him to a familiar park. This was where he and Victoria had spent many wonderful moments together. Sitting on a bench, Evan gazed into the distance, lost in thought.
He recalled every detail of his time with Victoria, from their first meeting to their final revelation, each memory vivid in his mind. But now, it was all in the past.
"Evan?" A familiar voice interrupted his thoughts. Evan looked up and saw Michelle.
Michelle sat lightly beside him, her face showing a hint of concern. "How did it go? Did you talk to her?"
Evan nodded and said lightly, "We talked. Everything is over. The truth is like a sharp knife, it hurts, but it also cuts the ties in my heart."
Michelle gently held Evan's hand and comforted, "You are very brave, Evan. Facing the truth takes courage, and letting go of the past takes even greater courage."
Evan smiled faintly, with a hint of resignation, "Yes, perhaps this is the price of growing up. I lost a love, but I found myself."
The two sat in the park, watching the sunset slowly sink.
"Evan, you will get better," Michelle said gently.
As the sky gradually darkened, the lights in the park lit up one by one, casting long shadows. Michelle slowly stood up, her gaze soft as it fell on Evan.
"Evan, I have to go. David is waiting for me, we made plans to have dinner together," she said with a hint of reluctance in her voice.
Evan looked up, smiled slightly, though there was a touch of sadness in his eyes. "Of course, go ahead. Thank you for coming to keep me company today."
"You will be fine, Evan. Everything will get better with time," Michelle gently held Evan's hand, her eyes filled with encouragement.
Evan nodded gently, watching Michelle leave. He felt a little sad, watching Michelle's figure gradually disappear on the path in the park. He had once dreamed of a deeper connection with Michelle, but now he knew that was no longer possible.
Evan sat alone on the bench, gazing at the first twinkling star in the sky. The atmosphere in the park became tranquil, with only faint conversations and children's laughter in the distance. He took a deep breath of the cool night air, feeling a deep sense of release.
Evan's thoughts began to drift. He reminisced about his days with Victoria, the sweet and painful times intertwined. He realized that this experience had given him a valuable lesson: the most important things in love are truth and trust.
Time passed slowly, and Evan remained seated there, allowing the night to envelop him. He felt a deep inner calm, a long-lost tranquility.
Finally, he stood up and decided to leave.
He slowly walked out of the park and entered the streets in the night. The streetlights reflected on his face, bringing a hint of warmth. In the city of Taipei at night, the lights were dim, and people were coming and going.
At this moment, Michelle walked on the path to the restaurant, filled with worry and blessings for Evan. She knew that Evan had gone through a spiritual journey and would begin a new journey in life.
She arrived at the restaurant where she had agreed to meet David, and saw him waiting for her through the glass window. She took a deep breath, composed herself, and then pushed the door open and walked in.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long," Michelle said with a smile.
David stood up and greeted her with a smile: "It's okay, I know you have important things to do. How was your day today?"
After they sat down, Michelle began to recount her conversation with Evan. David listened with a look of concern and support in his eyes.
"I really hope Evan can recover from this setback," Michelle said with a hint of worry in her tone.
David gently held her hand: "He will. With a friend like you by his side, Evan will surely be able to overcome the darkness."
Dinner proceeded in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. They chatted and laughed, but were also occasionally interrupted by concerns for Evan. After the meal, they walked out of the restaurant together and into the bustling streets of the night.
In the night, Michelle and David walked hand in hand on the bustling street.
