Female Novel
Chapter 870
After listening to Dylan's explanation, Selina was in shock.
She did not know that Dylan had done all of that.
She had dropped out halfway from university, but Dylan had not.
After graduating from a top university, he would have had the opportunity to work at a good company and earn a high salary.
However, Dylan never went to work.
Selina thought that he'd been a lazy lout who had chosen not to work but to remain unemployed.
However, she now understood what Dylan was doing.
She hadn't expected him to be so ambitious.
He wanted to rely on his own ability and build his own career rather than just becoming an excellent employee.
Selina was shocked.
She and Dylan had been together for so many years, but she did not even know about this.
"Where did you get so much money?" It took Selina a long time to recover.
To build his own career, he needed funds in the early stage, but where did Dylan get so much money?
"Selina, I saved a lot of money over the years after graduating and working on software for others," said Dylan.
In fact, he had doing other dangerous things to earn money as well, but he did not tell Selina about this.
Selina had always been spoiled and she had no idea about money. She didn't think much about it at all when she heard Dylan's explanation. "Selina, do you understand why I am doing this?" Dylan asked.
Selina's breathing became labored.
"Why?"
"For you," Dylan replied with a firm voice. "Selina, I want to give you true happiness. Not just surface level happiness. It requires material possessions, but I don't have the ability to do so right now. I am not someone born with a silver spoon in my mouth. I need to make everything with my own hands, Selina, and this takes time."
Selina's breathing became even more labored.
Dylan looked at Selina and continued, "I want to give you the best, Selina. I don't want you to be laughed at by others. I don't want people to think that you're a rich young woman who married a poor man, so I wanted to delay the wedding. I don't want to let you down. Do you understand, Selina?"
Dylan concealed the most important thing, that he had been threatened by Reid both to propose, and to cancel the wedding.
However, what he said was true as well.
He hadn't wanted Selina to marry him then because he could not afford to give her a lot of luxuries.
He didn't want to let Selina down.
"Selina, do you understand? Do you understand what I mean?" Dylan sounded in pain.
Selina felt confused.
She tried her best to adjust her breathing to calm herself down.
She really hadn't known about these things.
She thought that he cancelled the wedding just to make fun of her. She thought that he did not care about her.
However, she didn't expect that the reason was that he cherished her and did not want to cause her any humiliation. Selina's eyes were damp.
She suddenly had an impulse to jump into his
arms.
However, she stopped herself. It stopped the instant that Matthew flashed across her mind.
She looked at Dylan with bitterness in her eyes.
If Dylan had told her about this in the past, she would not hesitate for even a moment. She would immediately make up with him. However, things were different now.
She had only been with Matthew although it was just for a few days.
However, since she was in a relationship with Matthew, how could she be together with Dylan again?
She hated being played by others the most, so she did not want to do the same to others, specially since Matthew was such a good man.
Selina could not bear it.
"Selina, do you understand what I'm saying? Can you forgive me?" Dylan's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
He took a step forward, wanting to hug Selina again.
However, Selina took a step back.
Surprise flitted across Dylan's eyes. "Selina..." he said.
Looking at Dylan, Selina slowly said, "Dylan, I am touched by what you just said. I always thought that you didn't work after graduation because you were not concerned for our future know that I was wrong now. It turns out that you have ambition and you have really thought about our future." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
A gleam of light flashed across Dylan's eyes. "Then can you forgive me, Selina?" he asked.
Selina bit her lip and shook her head after a while.
Her gesture caused Dylan to be taken aback.
"Dylan, if you had told me earlier, I would have acted as if nothing had happened, but I can't do it now." Selina explained. After a brief pause, Selina said with a voice which was full of bitterness, "I am with someone else now. He's a good man. I need to keep my word. I'm sorry, Dylan." Content belongs to

Dylan took a step forward and grabbed Selina's shoulder directly. "You're lying, aren't you, Selina? You're lying!" he said.
"I'm not!"
"Impossible!" Dylan shouted. "I've
been broken up with you for just a
net
few days, How could you find another man so quickly? I don't believe it. I don't believe anything you just said. You found someone else just because you lost your temper, but you don't have any feelings for him!" Dylan Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
continued.
Selina pushed Dylan away.
She looked at Dylan bitterly and said, "Whether or not I have feelings for him, the fact is that there is nothing between you and I anymore."
Selina turned around and left.
Every step she took felt heavy, it was difficult for her to move.
"Selina, stop right there!" Dylan shouted.
Selina's footsteps came to a halt, but she still decided to walk away after a while.
This time, Dylan didn't continue to chase after Selina.
Selina returned back to her room.
After a while, she laid on the bed and wrapped herself tightly with the duvet.
She felt cold.
For a moment back then, she had really wanted to make up with Dylan again, but she had suppressed this thought.
They had been on-again, off-again for so many years, going through countless quarrels. These had not just been because Dylan had felt that it wasn't
the right time to marry her.
There had been a myriad of reasons. For example, their personalities were also different.
She was arrogant while Dylan was conceited.
However, Matthew was different. He was gentle and considerate, traits that were absent in Dylan.
Selina gritted her teeth.
She thought that since she had made up her mind, there was no turning back.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
She and Dylan could not go back to the past.
Selina closed her eyes and forced herself to stop thinking about this.
She finally fell asleep when the sun began to rise.
She dreamt that she was getting married to Matthew.
At the grand wedding ceremony, when she and Matthew were about to exchange their vows, Dylan rushed in.
He held a gun.
