Forbidden Passion

Chapter 827 Have You Missed Me These Three Years?

Donovan heard her words and suddenly stood up, just about to curse her, but then he saw her bowing her head and wiping away tears.

Donovan's anger dissipated instantly. He reached out, grabbed Phoebe's arm, and tried to pull her to sit on the couch.

Phoebe struggled a bit but was eventually pulled over to sit down.

Seeing Phoebe's tears streaming down, Donovan's heart ached. Phoebe rarely cried, even when she was sad or upset; she always showed her optimistic side in front of the family.

Phoebe was now crying uncontrollably, which instantly triggered Donovan's sense of responsibility as her brother. He gently patted her back, "Alright, alright, don't be mad. I'm sorry."

Phoebe clenched her fists and pounded on Donovan like raindrops, "You're clearly alive, why did you pretend to be dead?"

Donovan was left speechless, "I..."

"Do you know how much Mom and I suffered? Do you know what Ruby has been through these years? She even had a child for you. How could you do this?" Phoebe got more and more agitated as she spoke.

Ruby, standing nearby, suddenly got nervous when Phoebe mentioned her, "I-I'm fine."

Donovan quickly glanced at her and then focused back on Phoebe. He couldn't help but say, "Alright, stop crying. You're a mother of three now. How can you still be so childish?"

Phoebe glared at him, "You made me mad."

Donovan, feeling guilty and worried about her health, softly coaxed, "I was drunk at the time and called for a designated driver. When the car reached the coastal ring road, I got angrier and asked the driver to stop by the roadside. I wanted to cool off by the sea breeze."

Phoebe's crying gradually stopped, and she looked at him with red eyes.

"The driver followed me in the car. I was in a bad mood and asked him to drive ahead and wait for me. Then I saw the car malfunction, explode, and fall into the sea. I was so scared and realized someone wanted to kill me. I ran without thinking."

Ruby stared at him in a daze.

Donovan closed his eyes, "I escaped that disaster. Knowing someone wanted me dead, I went into hiding."
