Those pitch-black phoenix eyes looked at her with a burning intensity, filled with longing yet tinged with a hint of determination.
For a mont, Mabel Quinn was in a daze, as if these absurd words he spoke were sohow real, as if the mont he let go, it would truly happen as he said.
"But my uncle is still waiting for outside..." she forced herself to return to her senses from this daze.
"Your uncle, is he really that important to you?" he asked.
"Yes, very important." Her voice was utterly certain.
Kyle Kinston’s thin lips tightened, feeling as if his body were being consud, torn apart by her words. The peculiar fragrance that gradually filled the room also stimulated his body, nerves, and the flow of his blood...
This scent...
Kyle Kinston furrowed his brows, but the next mont, his thoughts shifted because of her words.
"Kyle Kinston, after I broke up with you, if not for my uncle, I might have been much worse off than I am now, maybe still living in that chaotic little rental place, rather than being like this now. So, Kyle Kinston, no matter what happens between us in the future, don’t involve my uncle," Mabel said.
His expression changed slightly, and when she ntioned "breakup," that sense of regret spread through his body again. At that ti, he was only blindly trying to avoid getting hurt, trying not to repeat his parents’ mistakes, but he forgot she was all alone. At that ti, she didn’t even have a ho.
When she left the Kinston mansion, what could her feelings have been...
"I’m sorry." Kyle Kinston murmured softly, "I shouldn’t have suggested breaking up."
"Sotis, many things happen by coincidence. That day, I was originally going to make Valentine’s Day chocolates for you, but my adoptive mother ca to see . Right, at that ti, I didn’t know she was just my adoptive mother. She asked to help her pay off debts, and when I refused, she told I was just an abandoned child picked up by my adoptive father on the road. I then tried to take a cab back to the Kinston mansion to find you, but the taxi broke down halfway. I got out and almost got hit by Daniel Harris’s car, then I passed out, and when I woke up, I was already in Harris Park."
The things that once caused her so much pain, she could now speak about so calmly.
Kyle Kinston’s pupils suddenly contracted; he didn’t know of these events back then. "Why didn’t you say anything?" What did she go through that day?
"I told you, I said I was making Valentine’s Day chocolates for you and lied about going shopping with Alice. I didn’t an anything against Daniel Harris, but you didn’t believe and told not to bring it up again." She said calmly, "Later, I thought, maybe our breakup wasn’t a misunderstanding, just that our love wasn’t as deep as we imagined."
"I’m sorry, Mabel... I’m sorry..." With a sudden motion, his other hand encircled her shoulders, pulling her into a tight embrace. Hearing her recount these things now caused waves of heartache in his chest.
How wrong he was back then! So afraid of getting hurt, he forgot to consider how deeply she would be wounded.
He destroyed the beauty they once shared!
He kept holding her tightly, making her feel as though her body was becoming increasingly hot and restless.
