章節 16: 16 Argument

Kayla's POV

"So, this is why you came back?" Harrison squeezed out a cold laugh from his throat, "Because you found a wealthier man?"

Harrison's icy gaze felt like an invisible blade, piercing into my flesh. I instinctively took a few steps back, my weak hands bracing against the stone wall behind me to steady myself.

When did I become a gold digger in Harrison's eyes?

With that thought, I straightened my posture, forcing myself to appear composed. But as I spoke, my voice trembled uncontrollably.

"Harrison, I know I was wrong six years ago. I came back because there was something important I needed to do. Once I've taken care of it, I'll explain everything to you..."

Perhaps triggered by my mention of six years ago, Harrison interrupted me with anger.

"Something important? Like selling yourself?"

Harrison's deep eyes, in the midst of this night's darkness, seemed to be burning with two clusters of dark green flames.
