Love Beyond the Mask by Adelaide Sinclair

Chapter 688

Chapter 688

In the midst of his overwhelming grief, he seemed oblivious to everything else, consumed by regret. "If it hadn't been for what you did to my mom back then, I wouldn't have harbored such hatred for you, fueled by Elaine's manipulations.

I stubbornly believed that as long as I was powerful, I could control you forever.

Even if you hated me, I thought there'd be time for you to fall in love with me.

All the things I did, everything, was to be with you.

I tried so hard, so why did it end with us forever apart?

Why is fate so cruel, punishing me with the inability to love you?

I can't bear it any longer!"
