BXBX NOVEL Chapter 94 Enemy To Enemy Advice
When she looked at him, he added, "You don\'t have to think so much."
"Elsa and Justin, they—"
"They used to date in the past," Andrew answered.
"Not just date, they were head over heels for each other," Owen remarked. "They were almost inseparable."
Contemplating for a while, she inquired, "Then what happened?" She was curious. From what she had observed, both of them cared for each other. This made her wonder why they decided to split.
Andrew and Owen did not say anything, they just looked at each other.
"Come on Andrew, answer your wife," Owen remarked.
"I think you can explain it better," Andrew stated.
"You know how sloppy I am with words," Owen nervously chuckled.
"No, you are better than me."
Rachael looked at the two of them simultaneously and raised her brows. "So you both have no idea why they ended their relationship."
"You don\'t know either?" When Andrew shook his head, Owen sighed, "I have zero idea of what happened and Justin never told us."
"Because we never asked." Andrew looked at Rachael. "They broke up after Justin lost his brother and sister-in-law. So I always assumed he purposely let her go because he didn\'t want to force her to be a part of his complicated life."
"But that isn\'t his choice, is it?" Rachael frowned. "Whether she is willing to be with him despite what is going on in his life is Elsa\'s choice to make, not his."
Owen sighed and nodded in agreement. "I agree with you. I don\'t know the real reason but all I know is that both of them still have feelings for each other, especially Elsa. Though she tries to act all tough and says she has moved on, I know deep down she is still rooting for their relationship."
"Justin also cares for her alot, he hasn\'t dated anyone else after her," Andrew added.
"Then why is he doing this?" Rachael sighed and helplessly shook her head. "Men are stupid."

[Inside the emergency room]
Patting the empty space next to him, Justin said, "Come sit here."
Elsa shook her head. "I am good."
He grabbed her wrist and forced her to sit next to him. He then grabbed the bottle of water he had bought for himself. "Here, drink it."
Without saying anything, she obediently did what he asked her to.
After taking a few sips, she closed the bottle and kept it back.
"Don\'t worry." He placed his hand over hers. "I am fine."
Resting her forehead on his shoulder, she wrapped her hands around his arms tightly. "I was so scared, I thought I lost you."
Looking at him, she said, "I know I have already lost you but the thought of losing you forever scares me a lot. I won\'t be able to handle it."
Wiping her tears from the corner of her eyes, he shook his head. "Don\'t cry, you know how much I hate seeing you cry."
"You hate seeing me cry but you are the one who has hurt me the most," she forced herself to smile.
Her words stabbed his heart. Elsa was the most important woman in his life and he had hurt her a lot. This killed him everyday.
Justin wanted to say something but couldn\'t find the right words to express himself. After everything he had done, what could he possibly say?
When she did not get the response she wanted from him, Elsa got up and excused herself.
Justin wanted to stop her but he didn\'t. He just remained seated in a daze.
"I don\'t know if I should laugh at you or pity you Carter," Samuel sighed and helplessly shook his head.
"Why don\'t you try shutting the f*uck up?" He snapped.
"Oh I will but not until I finish telling you how fu*cking stupid you are," Samuel scoffed.
When Justin did not say anything, he frowned, "Not that I care but—what the fuck are you even doing man? That woman fu*cking loves you and you are—"
He took a deep breath and sighed. "Do you have any idea how many men are dying to be with her? You don\'t even have to go far, look at my brother. He has been trying to pursue her for more than eight years now and just to let you know, he has no intention of stopping."
Everyone was aware of the weird obsession Igor Petrov, Samuel\'s big brother, had for Elsa Volkov.
"And you are clearly head over heels for her too. You have always been into her and you still are." Pausing for a while, he asked, "Then why?"
Like everyone, even Samuel was surprised when he heard about Justin and Elsa\'s breakup.
When he did not say anything, Justin said, "Is it because you are worried you will get killed like your brother someday and then Elsa will be left behind to take care of your nephew all by herself?"
Justin pursed his lips and glared at Samuel. The guy had managed to see right through him.
His brother\'s death wasn\'t just an accident, it was a planned muder. One of his brother\'s enemies planned the entire thing in which his sister-in-law who was expecting also ended up getting involved and lost her life.
This incident shook Justin to his core. He couldn\'t stop thinking about something similar happening to Elsa because of him.
With Edward swooping in his life and his brother\'s and sister-in-law\'s death, Justin\'s life suddenly took a new turn. He felt lost and anxious and ended up doing something he still cursed himself for.
When Justin kept quiet, Samuel sighed, "Let me give you an enemy to enemy advice."
"Never take someone\'s love for granted. Maybe now she is still into you but the day she finds a man who will treat her the way she deserves, you\'ll end up being a guy from the past," he remarked.
"And the day that happens, you are gonna end up regretting your entire life," he added.
When Justin kept quiet, Samuel assumed he was listening to him. "Why ruin your present because of something that might not even happen? I mean, it\'s not necessary that someone might kill you. You could die of a heart attack right now."
"My point is, life is unpredictable. Anything can happen any time," Samuel stated. "I never thought there would come a day when I would pass on my wisdom to someone I hate but here we are—"
