Chapter 197
She stood under the streetlight at the factory gate, and took a deep breath into her hands.
The hot steam rose up.
The dim yellow light from the street lamp fell on her, making her look like she was glowing.
Snowflakes were falling from the sky, she reached out to catch them, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
Theron was outside the gate and saw this scene, he was taken aback for a moment.
At that moment, all he could see was Lizzie. She was so close, yet so far away. That one glance felt like eternity.
Theron had just finished his mission and saw that it was snowing. He was worried, so he decided to swing by and pick up Johanna.
The factory gate opened, and with a casual glance, I saw Lizzie.
He stood there like he was frozen, unable to move.
Lizzie seemed to notice someone looking at her, so she instinctively turned her head.
We looked at each other.
Theron looked at her as if everything around him became her backdrop.
At one point, Theron was a bit dazed.

Theron clenched his fist, followed his heart, subconsciously wanting to get closer to her, and was about to walk over.
Even just saying hi, asking how she’s doing, getting closer, and checking on her is good.
However, he failed to get close to Lizzie as a large number of workers poured out of the factory gates like a tide, separating the two of them.
Lizzie turned her head and scanned the crowd, quickly spotting Tabitha’s figure.
She had a smile on her face and then she turned and walked towards Tabitha.
“Tabitha,” Lizzie called out sweetly.
Tabitha looked at Lizzie for a moment, until she pulled down her big scarf a bit, revealing her small face the size of a palm. Tabitha immediately recognized Lizzie, with a simple smile on her face.
“You are the researcher just now!”
Lizzie gave a sincere smile and/said, “Thank you so much for earlier.”
In this life, they were still strangers,” Tabitha spoke up for her and helped her. And in the previous life, when everyone rejected and avoided her, Tabitha didn’t believe the rumors and was willing to be with her. After getting to know her, she helped her out.
Tabitha waved her hand and said cheerfully, “So what! I’ve never liked that Mattie, always twisting the truth in her performances. She can’t even act as well as the pillars on the stage! And you probably don’t need me to speak for you either.”
“Thanks to you too,” Lizzie said sincerely.

“Ah, don’t worry about that,” Tabitha said warmly as she pulled her arm. “It’s freezing cold out here. You’re a temporary worker, right? How many days are you working here? Has the factory arranged a place for you? Do you have somewhere to stay?”
“My home is nearby, that’s why they sent me over.”
“That’s great, it’s only seven or eight days until New Year. If you’re on a business trip, you won’t have anywhere to celebrate.”
The two of them were talking, walking arm in arm, blending into the crowd getting off work, passing by Theron.
Theron saw Lizzie walking past him, and he almost instinctively took a step forward and reached out to stop her.
“Lizzie,” his voice was hoarse, throat feeling really bitter.
Lizzie paused, then slowly turned around.
Tabitha looked at Theron and then at Lizzie, her eyes shifting back and forth between the two.
“Theron? Lizzie?”
She suddenly realized something, her eyes full of surprise, “You, you are Lizzie? Theron’s ex–girlfriend?”
Lizzie calmly nodded at Tabitha, then turned to Theron, looking distant.
“Theron, do you have a minute?”
Without waiting for Theron to answer, she said, “But, I just want to remind you that our relationship is quite special, and you are already married now. So, our conversation should be limited to work matters only.”

Theron’s face turned slightly pale, a hint of hurt flickering in his eyes.
He opened his mouth and explained awkwardly, “You know, there was a special reason why I married Johanna. She wouldn’t mind…”
“But I do mind,” Lizzie replied coldly.
Tabitha was listening on the side, frowning.
She has always been straightforward, and couldn’t help but speak out at this moment, “Theron, no matter what special reasons you have, you are married to Johanna, that makes you a couple. And as a couple, you have to be responsible to your partner and keep a proper distance from other women.”
“When you were dating Lizzie before, being so unclear like that, you already hurt her. Do you still want to hurt Lizzie in the same way?”
Theron pursed his lips, his Adam’s apple bobbed, he didn’t think too much about it.
They may not be dating, but they are still acquaintances.
