章節 34: The man you've been jumping all over with in my absence... (2)
" Enough! What would I want to do with a sl*t like you? You keep faking innocence who would have guessed you're such a promiscuous woman. "
He snorted at her quivering face and continued dropping the bomb.
" All this while you were just but a game for me. A pathetic piece of chess, made out of a bet with a couple of friends. This ends now, so enough with your delusions. "
In his deep and low voice, he told her off with apparent disregard. As if talking to a disgusting stranger that he met on the road.
A man she had loved for more than 2 years. Probably fell on her cousin's schemes or ganged up to betray and tear her apart.
She was surprised at how fast the mind and heart of a human being changes.
Didn't the years they had been together mean anything for him?
Hah... Of course they never did.
She covered her pale face in shame feeling like the most stupid being on earth.
The man she loved had coldly said on her face that to him she was only a bet he had made with his friends.
Being toyed with by one's lover was painful but being told off in the face by the same person was excruciating.
What on earth was happening? She was confused. Why was she forever on the bad side of luck?
Her eyes welled up due to pain, anger, resentment and frustration. As complete hopelessness washed her, her face stiffened trying to endure as the familiar suffocating pain threatened to assault her.
Shifting her blurry gaze to her cousin, she took a deep breath and silently uttered, " I've always known you resent me so much but why him? You knew that he was the only person left for me..."
Her lips trembled and without awaiting her response or anymore humiliation she dashed out of the suffocating room and ran with a blurry sight.
Bang!!
Due to her running blindly, she heavily collided with a person on the pathway resulting to her being knocked down on the floor.
Fortunately due to his quick reflexes, the man quickly grabbed her waist, saving her from the fall.
" I'm sorry... sorry I didn't... "
She quickly apologized due to her carelessness lifting her head only to be taken aback when she saw the familiar handsome face with a cold demeanor.
Why was he everywhere?
Her lost eyes met his cold gaze which was clearly filled with range yet still restraining his temper.
Ethan's lips formed a thin line as he stared at the little pale faced woman in his arms.
She was looking up at him with surprise, her eyes wide like an orbit. Her confused expression and half opened mouth looked cute.

Seeing his face and familiar cool manly fragrance, Zoey didn't know what suddenly came over her when she threw herself against his shoulders bawling her eyes out.
Her body trembled as she aggrievedly let out all her emotions and frustrations like a child complaining to her parents when she had been wronged.
A flood of tears gushed down her ashen cheeks. The sound of her wailing and suffering could be heard echoing throughout the corridor.
Tightening his arms around her, the man's forehead creased a thousand times.
" Why cry your heart out over a bunch of fools... "
He uttered gently patting her head. His eyes were cold and distant but a flash of gentleness could be seen.
He had been out for a drink with a couple of his buddies when he spotted the little woman in the hotel. She was alone at the table and kept shifting her glances between the entrance and her phone as if waiting for someone.
Cancelling their earlier booked private box, he asked for a table where he could clearly see her.
Whoever she was waiting for must have been important to her since she patiently sat there for hours.
His expression turned gloomy just imagining about it.
He then saw her rising to her feet heading to the elevator after checking her phone. He suddenly felt a pang of contradiction in his heart.
Was she heading to meet that bastard in a hotel room?
A gust of ice- cold air suddenly emanated from him. In an instant it enveloped the entire place.
Without thinking, he shot to his feet and followed her.
He couldn't allow the girl he was planning to chase be in the same room with another man, could he?
Of course never. Unless he wasn't Ethan Hale.
Unfortunately, he overhead their entire conversation.
He didn't know how to feel.
One thing for sure was that he was dying to strangle that jerk to death.
