Chapter 142

“If I don’t love you anymore, will you let me go?” Nyla asked.

Clark’s gaze turned cold as he answered, “No.”

“Then what’s the point of asking? And wasn’t it you who threatened me with my dad to move back in?” Nyla retorted.

Meeting Nyla’s calm gaze, Clark smiled self–deprecatingly and turned away, saying nothing more. He had indeed forced her to return.
