Chapter 76: New Life

"I love you, Ethan. I never meant to hurt you. Please, let me make amends. I'll do anything." But his face hardened, his mouth sealed, his dark eyes looking anything like the loving eyes that once woke me up with a smile.

"You love me?" He laughed, shaking his head. "Unbelievable."

My heart sank, with tears in my eyes I continued "Ethan, I can change. I'll be better, I promise, I would be more quiet if that's what you want. Don't cast me away like this. I can't bear to lose you."

He did not say anything, instead he glanced at his security personnels, "Take her things, burn them, and lock her up in her room and deal with her as you see fit."

Terror gripped me as the guards approached, their hands ready to seize me. "No, Ethan, please! I beg you, have mercy!" I cried out, but his expression remained cold and unforgiving.

"Please…don't hurt me, I beg you." He wasn't saying anything, his eyes were cold and was burning with fury.
