Chapter 1046

The white rose trembled in Chasel's hand, its silky petals spotted with beads of bright red blood.

"We should break up."

Just five words. Chasel's voice was so soft, almost empty, but it shattered Cassius's ironclad heart, reducing it to ruins, too painful to look at.

"Chasel... I won't let you leave me!"

Cassius's entire body was shaking. In his dark, stormy eyes, a wild, desperate fury burned like never before. "I know exactly who I love! You were never anyone's replacement. Never!
