Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 151: Shattered Trust

Pain was all Ash could feel as he watched Sapphire talking to Azrael. Azrael summoned him there and forced him to watch their conversation, although he didn't know why. Although he couldn't hear what they were talking about, Ash knew that Sapphire was angry at Azrael.

"Fuck," he muttered under his breath, wincing as a headache pounded behind his eyes.

He hadn't realized how much he had drunk last night, and now the hangover was taking its toll.

Ash had sworn to cut back on drinking, but every time he remembered how he yearned to be with Sapphire, he found himself reaching for the bottle.

He wanted to forget her, yet their memories together haunted him.

Sapphire's gaze moved at him. Her eyes widened in shock but quickly hardened into anger and disgust.

'She knows everything now,' Ash confirmed it with Sapphire's expression. 'Azrael had probably explained it.'

"Damn it," Sapphire cursed, storming past him as if they didn't know each other.

Ash felt a pang of pain onto his heart.

He desperately wanted to follow Sapphire but restrained himself, knowing Azrael was watching. Any wrong move could provoke his cousin into doing something terrible. Clenching his fists, Ash let his fear hold him back, robbing him of another chance to make things right.

"I love you, Ash."

He dreamt of her sometimes, especially after drinking..

In his dream, Sapphire sat on his lap, kissing him passionately. Her hands explored his body, her palm resting on his chest as if to feel his heartbeat. That she had kissed his forehead and confessed her love. If he could turn back time, he would have married her back then.

But now, such thoughts feel like wishful thinking.

"Do you still love her?" Azrael's voice snapped him out of his thoughts.

He was now sitting across from Ash, watching him closely.
