章 449: The Unknown Side...

A very plain sentence, yet it gave rise to a sense of shame in Cynthia's heart. "I'm reserving a chance for you to leave unscathed," Tristan's cold and deep voice sounded in her ears. In reality, he was not as gentle and gentlemanly as Cynthia might have imagined. There were times when he wanted to be domineering and possessive, and even if she entertained thoughts of leaving, he would shackle her, keeping her bound to him forever. But these thoughts ultimately hovered in his mind, lingering and eventually dissipating because he couldn't bear it. He had never been emotionally attached to any woman, and he wasn't adept at tenderness, but for Cynthia, he was willing to do everything within his power. He wanted to give her all the tenderness he could muster.
