Capítulo 44: Painful tears

Jeremy had angry tears in his eyes, but he refused to let them fall. His already red eyes flashed a darker shade of red as he turned around to look at Chloe. 

Chloe felt very terrible for subjecting him to this kind of abuse. She may have appeared cold and tough to others, but that was only because she was trying to keep the self-esteem that her family had destroyed.

Seeing how hurt Jeremy was now, she hated herself even more.
