Chapter 218 Not Going Back

"Don't you trust me?" Felipe asked, the hurt clear in his voice, as if Farrah's coldness had pierced right through

him.

"Does it even matter?" Farrah kept him talking on purpose, buying time, her voice steady even as tendon brewed beneath it. Only Freya's arrival could truly fix this. "You tried to force me into an abortion, didn't you

"I'm not going back with you. Just go."

His patience had run thin. With her resistance growing, Felipe's tone darkened. "You should know exactly what happens when I'm pushed too far.”

A strange calm settled over Farrah then. She smiled faintly, eyes meeting his without fear. "If you're still like this, why would I ever go back to you?"

Felipe faltered, struck dumb by her clarity.

Felipe's fists curled tight at his sides. His eyes glinted with a chill so sharp, it nearly felt like frost in the air. He barked at his bodyguards, "Take her away!"

"Yes, sir." The bodyguards moved fast, storming into the villa without a moment's hesitation.
