Nam's POV

I gave time for Freen to calm down before we can slip out of the building avoiding the press. I knew she would tell me what exactly happened once she is ready, that will be soon.

Freen was in the passenger seat. looking out of the window. She did try to reach Becky through calls and messages and her numbers were switched off. Richie asked her to give time to Becky when she tried to talk to him. She was trying hard, even by calling Irin, who did nothing but scolding from beginning to end. I can understand Irin. She is being a good friend only.

I parked the car on the side when we reached a peaceful place. I did not say anything and let her cry as much she wanted. Then she started talking.

Flashback - Freen's POV

I was going through the files to be signed before leaving the office to pick Becky after her event. I did see the news about Nop's bail and did not want to freak Becky out if she had not come to know about that until me meet.

Yah informed me that there was a visitor and I let that person in without even asking who it was. I could not believe my eyes when the door was pushed open and the visitor entered.

Faye! Faye Malisorn! The first love of mine! The one I almost married before 5 years.

"What are you doing here Faye?" -- I pushed the file aside and stared at her.

"No hais...no how are yous.. Straight to what am I doing here?" -- Faye smiled with her usual confidence and stood in front of me.

"I am busy Miss. Malisorn.. I just wonder why you are here too...!" -- I said getting up from my seat.

"Either you would be Mrs. Malisorn or I would be Mrs. Chankimha ...right Freen..?" -- She moved in front of me. -- "And I think now we are mature enough.. I am ready to be Mrs. Chankimha."

Faye stood facing me, maintaining the eye contact. I never thought that she would be back like this once again. I remember how in love I was with her and how I dreamed of living a life with her in the past.

"Freen..." -- she said and took a step closer to me. She held my hand and placed a ring on my palm.... The same ring that was our engagement ring.

"I always kept it Freen... when you send it back to me after we...I..... And I want you to put it on my finger... And... I promise Freen.. I won't leave this time.. I won't leave you ever.."

She cupped my cheeks and looked into my eyes with her teary eyes. For a moment I felt like I saw my old Faye in her eyes. The ever loving, possessive and caring Faye...

"I... I can't Faye.. You and I, we are over. You left me. You did not even give me a chance..." -- I moved away when she was about to kiss my forehead, removing her palms from my cheek forcefully.

"Baby... We can never be over.. You know that... I can still feel you when I just close my eyes.. The way we loved.... The way we really really loved....." -- Faye ran her finger from my shoulder to my arms, till gripping my wrist.

"You and me are meant to be Freen... And I will make sure of that..." -- She moved closer to me again. The familiar perfume from the past invading my nose.

"Faye... Please.. There is someone else in my life..." -- I tried to slip away and she pushed me little more forcefully.. making my back touch the wall.

"Really? Is she better than me? Can she make you feel better than me Freen?" -- She crowded over me with her hand holding my chin and her other hand pressing on the wall, trapping me within her hold.
