Bab 320: Mistrusting

Sometimes the one we love the most isn't by our side, but in our hearts—forever a memory. 

Kaden once remembered what Lina told him in their second life. They were sitting at a bar, cigarettes permeating the air, tobacco smoke in their lungs, as she let out a burst of soft laughter. He had broken her heart into a thousand pieces by rejecting her proposal of marriage, for he had played with what wasn't his. 

At that time, she belonged to Atlantis in both hand and body, but Kaden gambled for her heart.

In Lina's second life, Kaden was her first in bed and lips, but in the end, Atlantis was her lawful husband. History wrote it as such.

"I might forgive you a thousand times, but I'll only trust you once," Lina had said to him, her lips painted as red as her wedding dress the next day.

Their love affair had come to an end at the exact spot that it had begun.
