Chapter 185 185: But now no talking, only loving

Ella locked herself in her room. She wanted to be alone without being interrupted, so when Stefan dropped her off at home, she stepped out of the car and walked inside the building without giving him another glance.

She knew it was impolite, but all she wanted to do was get away from him before she burst into tears in his presence.

Ella had no idea she was silently crying as she recalled the most wonderful moments of her life with Stefan.

She never imagined Stefan would be able to make her forget Max and help her break free from her insecure bubble, but now she wonders if she was truly outside of that box.

No, she wasn't; otherwise, Priscilla's words wouldn't have ripped her heart so easily.

As she proceeded to bury herself in her bitter words, her phone rang, and she shifted her focus away from her pain to see who had called.

Her eyes froze when she saw her mother's name, and she brushed away her tears before picking it up.

"Hello?" Ella spoke in a shaky voice. She tried not to cry, but tears started to pool in her eyes.

"Ella, is everything alright?" Michelle's voice brought her to tears, and she cried her heart out in front of her.

"Mom, why is life so unjust to me? Was I not born to love? Why is my life on a thread of being left out anytime I consider giving it a chance?" Ella was unable to control her pain and voiced it in front of her mother.

Mischelle kept quiet, tears flowing down her cheeks as she listened to her daughter wail her heart out.

She understood what Ella was going through and was ready to listen to her as always. Her daughter always appeared to be strong, but only she knew that wasn't the reality and that she was actually frail and sensitive at heart.

"Mom, I like him, but I know he will find someone more gorgeous than me and leave me. I'll be left alone; why, Mom, can't I be happy for once?" Ella continues to spill out everything she has bottled up for years, finally being vulnerable.

"Am I not lovable, Mom. Aren't I worth fighting for? Why does everyone want to leave me?" she pondered.

First her father abandoned her, then Max, and now the prospect of Stefan becoming tired of her and abandoning her was tearing her heart apart.

"If you think, Stefan will leave you then let me clear it Ella, he won't because if he had to he wouldn't have told me about your deal of faking your relationship before me"
