Bab 686: A Confrontation

Ava was heart broken to say the least. She'd been so sure that Erasmi would never... She stifled the sob that almost escaped her before she tried to get a control over herself. What a fool she'd been. He didn't love her. They were not even attracted to each other and had come together only for the sake of this relationship. Even their friendship had been formed out of a need. Her need to make sure Cai was safe if something happened to her. And Erasmi's need to be with his son.

She should have accepted the truth sooner, instead of being carried away in her own fairytale. She'd let herself be influenced by Autumn, Olivia and Nora's love stories. They hadn't started out with love but they'd ended up that way, hadn't they? But she'd forgotten, in each of those cases, both parties had choice to choose or reject each other. In their case, they did not have that option.
