Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 77 I Shouldn’t Have Met You

Susan hadn't expected to swallow her pride, declaring she could disregard his infidelity, yet he still looked at her with such cold eyes, as if she were the most contemptible person in the world.

"Hayden, you must come with me today!" Susan was also fierce in her determination.

Over the years, even if Hayden did not love her, he at least treated her with mutual respect and had never been so ruthless, nor had he gotten close to any other woman. Today, he was treating her this way for the woman in his bed, even though she was soon to be his wife.

"I told you. If you want to leave, go by yourself." Hayden stood in front of the bed, his face unmoved.

"Fine, you won't leave with me, right? I'll just jump out of here," Susan said as she ran to the window.

At this moment, Aurora only wanted to laugh. Her tactics had been so clever in the past, yet now she seemed no better than a shrew.

These scenes of crying and feigned suicide, she knew, would only make a man despise her more if only she kept a bit of her wits about her.

"Go ahead. Jump if you want. Tomorrow's headlines will definitely feature you. You've always liked seeking attention. If you jump out the window, it will certainly be a trending topic online. But given this height, you won't survive such a fall, and your death will look terrible," Hayden said with cold indifference in his eyes.

He had tolerated this woman for three years, but today he could not. He had to let Aurora know his resolve.

"You always want to look good," he continued, "Would you regret it if tomorrow's headlines showed your mangled body?"

Hayden was not afraid at all. Instead, he methodically analyzed the consequences, as he knew this woman too well.

Susan would not jump. After all, she was always fastidious in her appearance.

If she ended her life this way, she would not rest even in death.

And more importantly, she valued herself above all others. The more selfish a person was, the more he cherished his life.

All her actions were merely threats. She did not have the courage to actually die.

Hayden's cold ruthlessness was terrifying even to Aurora.
