My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 124

Chapter 122

Chairman Forger had mentioned that Nicholas would hurt me and have his revenge on me! But why? What did he know that I didn't?

''Ree,'' he answered wearily.

So, I softened my tone and asked patiently, ''What happened to him?''

''He woke up a month ago, but Alice Yates found the opportunity to slip in with a hypnotist who intended to make him hate you from the bottom of his heart. However, that isn't what Nicholas wanted, and he had been struggling within himself the whole time. As time passed, he developed two characters, one who loves you with all his heart and another that hates you to the core, thinking you betrayed him. Yet, from the very beginning, you're the only one in his heart…''

When I heard that, I felt a pang in my heart and let out a heavy sigh. ''Can he be treated?''

''He's actively receiving treatment.''

Last night, Nicholas' alter ego must have awakened when he stopped what he was doing to me, and he must be feeling terrible now, thinking that he had hurt me. But in fact, what had he done wrong?

Everything was Alice's fault, and I silently vowed to destroy the Yates Family.

When I opened the closet, I found a dress that was of a mature style. The dress exposed my entire back, and I saw the bruises on my back when I checked myself in the mirror.

These bruises resulted from rubbing against the sand on the beach last night, and I recalled how much energy he had. Anywhere he touched would send a tingle through my body.

Afterward, I changed out of that dress and put on another, more conservative one. When I was downstairs, I saw Waylen waiting for me at the door with a middle-aged man wearing a white robe next to him.

Puzzled, I asked, ''Who is this?''

''A hypnotist,'' he introduced.

''Why is he here?'' I asked again fearfully.


''Mr. Xenos said there is no need to remember last night and instructed me to let you forget about it. So don't worry, Ms. Felix. Just forget about the memories between you and Mr. Xenos.''

Dumbstruck, I spun my head to the man seated outside, and he was still sunning himself under the sun. He was supposed to be a heartwarming presence, yet, I felt that there was a chasm between us.

So, he's that heartless.

I calmly declined the offer, ''I refuse.'' So, I walked past Waylen and intended to leave, but he reached out to stop me. ''How dare you!'' I barked as I glared at him coldly.

Nobody could alter my memories without my consent, not even Shawn!

''Let me speak with Shawn,'' I requested.

Waylen stepped aside, and I walked toward Shawn. Just as he was before, his eyes were shut, and he seemed to be in a very peaceful slumber.

''Let me leave,'' I whispered.

He was quiet, as if he didn't hear me, but I knew that he was awake.

My face turned stony at him for the first time as I said solemnly, ''Let me leave. I won't pester you anymore and say anything inappropriate after this!''

Never did it cross my mind that he would be so heartless, but I was sure that if I didn't say these things today, he would never allow me to leave.

Shawn's eyes snapped open, and he said flatly, ''Let her go.''

He was simply too aloof, and I couldn't tolerate such aloofness. Hence, I whirled around and left in a hurry, not wanting to have anything to do with him anymore.

I was really terrified of him when he was like this, like a man who lost his heart and the capability to feel.

Back in my apartment, I received a call from Emma, saying happily, ''I'm going to be on holiday for a week and won't be back in Bryxton for a while. As for your car, I've parked it at the bar entrance.''

I carried my low spirits with me to the bar and picked up my car. When I wanted to return home, Francesca suddenly popped into my mind, and I decided to visit her in her neighborhood instead. At that time, she was chatting with another pregnant woman in her community, and she appeared especially motherly.

That was how a person was supposed to be when she was almost a mother.

She didn't chat for that long with the other pregnant woman before she came to me, and I greeted her with a smile. ''Miss Gant, you're looking terrific.''

She returned my smile with one of her own when she said, ''My assistant has been the one taking care of my family business, so my pregnancy is a breeze.'' Then, she paused for a few seconds and added, ''I just feel a little lonely sometimes.''

''Do you still love Leon?'' I asked curiously.

''Yes, but I don't want to get close anymore.''

I decided to vent to her as I felt down in the dumps. I told her in detail everything that happened between Nicholas and me, and sighed sadly. ''I've fallen for Shawn now. But, setting aside the fact that he has no feelings for me and doesn't want to be with me, I still don't know how I should solve the issue between Nicholas and me because I promised him that I'll forgive him if he lives.''

Now he was alive, but I couldn't live up to my end of the bargain. Besides, I was afraid to approach him in his current state.
