Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 538

Eyes locked, Murray's deep gaze pierced into hers. "You know what I want."

Roseanne frowned.

"It's simple. Come back to me. Don't talk about consent forms; whatever you want, I can provide."

"That's impossible!"

Her response was too definitive, too brisk.

"Anne..." The man let out a bitter laugh. "I know you must be cursing me in your heart, calling me despicable, but I truly can't live without you... Can't we just start over? I promise, from now on, it'll just be you. All the things you don't like, I'll change them. Just trust me once more, okay?" With that, he eagerly reached for Roseanne's hand.

But she mercilessly dodged his grasp.

"I don't believe a word you say, and I certainly won't comply with your request."

She gathered her documents and pen: "I shouldn't have come today. If you don't want to sign, so be it."

With those words, she stood up and left, her steps both hurried and brisk.

Even though she had long given up hope on him, she was still shocked to find the man she once loved capable of such shamelessness. Upon exiting the diner, Roseanne raised her hand to hail a cab.

But before she could open the door and get in, her wrist was forcefully grabbed by the man who had chased after her, pulling her back. The driver, thinking there was some dispute, immediately drove off.
