Abigail: 是嗎??? 你現在不是有機會了嗎? [English: Really?? Then you have a chance now]

Raymond: 哈哈 ... 也許我們真的沒有緣吧…我還以為給她多點時間忘掉過去, 我就可以靠近她, 沒想到 … 她現在又有了男朋友. [English: Haha... I think we don't have faith to be together... I thought that I should give her time to forget about the past... then I can go near her... I've never thought that she has found a new boyfriend]

Abigail: 什麼? 看來你們真的很沒有緣耶.... 那個女生現在過的開不開心啊? [English: What!!! I think you two really don't have faith to be together... That girl ... Is she happy now?]

Raymond: 聽說 … 她父母很反對他們的交往. [English: I heard that her parents don't approved her relationship]

Abigail: 如果是這樣的話, 你不是可以靠近她了嗎… 讓她知道你的存在. 也許她會喜歡上你哦. [English: If that is the case... then you can start approaching her... let her know that you actually exist.... probably she will fall in love with you]

Raymond: 這樣不太好吧. [English: I don't think it is a good idea]

Abigail: 也對啦... 可是我不想看到你後悔一輩子啊. 而且他們又還沒結婚, 你還有機會. 如果你不去說 .. 你怎麼會知道呢. 也許她是喜歡你的也不一定喔. [English: It might not be a good idea... but I don't want you to regret... They are not married yet...
