Chapter 39

Sophie’s pov

There are a million thoughts storming through my mind at this moment. Some didn’t even make sense.

Who’s standing before me didn’t make sense.

Was I even making sense?

My throat feels tight, emotions go haywire in my body. My heart is thumping loudly. I can’t think properly.

Why was his eyes so cold when they stared into mine? Why did he stare at me blankly? Did he not remember me?

My heart slammed in my chest harshly. Can he really forget me so quickly?
