章 366: Unstoppable Tears

“Malissa, stop crying…” Hayden commanded sternly.

I had already lost count of the times that Hayden had told me to stop crying ever since this whole unfortunate affair started. Now that I think about it, he did tell me once before that he wasn’t a big fan of my tears. He hated it when I cried and that made me hate myself so much more for crying.

“I’m sorry…” I whimpered as I tried to stop my tears.

It wasn’t an easy feat to achieve, and I found it almost impossible to stop crying. My body shook even more and soon, I wasn’t able to speak anymore.

“Stop crying, Malissa…” Hayden repeated again.

“I…I can’t…” I managed to croak in such a broken voice that made me feel completely embarrassed.

“Remove your hands from your face. If you’re going to cry, then let me see your ugly face,” Hayden said without any mercy.

I felt his hand prying my hands away from my face. The more I resisted by trying to turn my face away, the more persistent Hayden’s hands became.
