Evan stared at Nicole’s wedding gown grimly.
The woman I so deeply loved, whom I dream of marrying, is finally donning a white wedding gown. Yet, she’s marrying someone else other than me!
The bride’s going to marry someone, and I’m not the groom.
I’ve never expected myself to be in such a situation or experience such emotion.
He felt like there was a fist squeezing and wrenching his heart forcefully. The feeling of suffocation made him struggle to utter out a single word.
His eyes secretly reddened.
“Get out! Or I’ll call someone over!”
Evan took a deep breath. “Nicole, you look really pretty in a wedding gown.”
Nicole’s heart skipped a beat. Evan’s voice is so nice – deep, mellow, and charismatic.
However, his words had such an unsettling effect on me.
It’s as if a bitter and gloomy feeling was trying to engulf me whole.
I don’t know why I’m feeling this way, but I don’t like it.
I hate it when he appears in front of me again, disrupting my tranquil and peaceful life.
“Go away and don’t come anymore! If you do, I’ll hand you over to Murphy!”
As if he could not hear her at all, Evan strode towards her without a care in the world.
“Nicole, are you marrying Levant because you truly love him?”
Nicole did not expect him to abruptly ask this question. After a moment of silence, she exclaimed with tears brimming in her eyes, “Because he loves me! He loves me more than you do! When my life is in danger, he would risk everything to save me. On the other hand, you cruelly pushed me into hell. You tortured me, humiliated me, and even tried to kill me!”
The memories of her experiences in prison were engraved in her mind. She could never forget them.
Evan, since you want me to die so much, why did you come here to look for me?
Evan stood there motionlessly. A cold expression crossed his face while an intensely sorrowful look crept into his eyes.
Is she really willing to marry Levant? She’s really…
“Nicole, is there anything about me that’s worse than Levant? I’ll change, okay?”
Evan, who was always so dignified, arrogant, and mighty, had now humbled himself completely. There was even a trace of imploration in his voice.
As long as Nicole would not leave him, he was willing to do anything.
However, Nicole scoffed coldly and spat, “It’s impossible for you to change your innately vicious and heartless character!”
Vicious and heartless.
Those few words were like sharp daggers tearing through Evan’s heart, filling him with hurt and despair.
Words were always too futile and weak to express one’s love. Yet, when they were used to express hatred, they always sounded so cruel.
He could be vicious and heartless to anyone, but not Nicole.
The only reason why he locked her up was to prevent her from meeting Levant and leaving his side!
He never wanted to hurt her.
Hence, how could he ever bear to treat her viciously and heartlessly?
“Nicole, what should I do for you to believe that I’ll change so that you’ll be willing to stay by my side?”
Nicole forced out a bitter smile. She closed her eyes, concealing the turmoil of emotions within them. She instructed, “Leave! I don’t ever want to see you again!”
Even if you’ll change, I can never forget the hurt you’ve caused me, the torture I experienced in prison, and the burden of a human’s life.
Evan, this is the end of both of us…
Nicole walked to the door and pushed it open.
Through this action, she made her desire to chase Evan out very clear.
Evan walked towards the door. However, before leaving, he stopped in his tracks, turned around, and gazed at Nicole, his deep-set eyes filled with longingness and sorrow.
Nevertheless, Nicole turned her face away, refusing to look at him.
Sighing deeply, Evan left the room.
Nicole slammed the door shut before slumping against the door. The emotions, which she tried so hard to suppress earlier, crept into her eyes. Gradually, a look of utter despair appeared on her pale face.
Evan, why did you treat me that way? Why?
After killing me, you’re now trying to win me back. You’re even crueler than the Devil himself! Not only have you become the devil, but you also appeared in front of me disguised as an angel…
