Chapter 234
The air was thick with tension as the camera continued to roll, capturing our lives for an audience whose hunger for closure drove the charade. I faced Bruce, desperation etched into every line of my face, as I attempted to plead with a man whose heart seemed shrouded in shadows.
“You won’t harm me,” I insisted, my voice shaky yet determined. “You care about me. Admit it.”
Bruce’s gaze bore into mine, his expression inscrutable. For a fleeting moment, I held my breath, hoping against hope that he’d buy into my deceit.
“You’re dumb if you really believe that,” Bruce sneered, his tone tinged with condescension.
“I guess so,” I stated. “I’ve had my fair share of hurt, but certain things are clear to me now.”
When he raised an eyebrow, I nearly lost some of my resolve. Either he wasn’t getting it, or I wasn’t pushing hard enough.
I squared my shoulders, my voice tinged with a feigned resolve. “I’ve let go of him, Bruce. If he wants to
come, that’s on him, but I want to start anew. And I’ll do whatever it takes.”
Bruce’s confusion was evident, his brow furrowing in disbelief. “You? Letting go? That’s a new one.”
Desperation gnawed at me, knowing I had to keep him convinced, keep him from seeing through my ruse. I summoned every ounce of courage, attempting to shift the conversation.
“I’ve let go of Timothy,” I lied, hoping my words would tug at his elusive softer side. “I want to start anew, and you can give me that chance.”
His confusion was palpable, the lines of his face etched with a mix of surprise and skepticism. “What are you trying to say?” Bruce’s voice was tense, a hint of vulnerability surfacing in his eyes.
I took a step closer, attempting to appeal to something within him, to bridge the gap between us.
“You’ve always been so sure of what you wanted,” I continued, my voice taking on a seductive tone, “unlike Timothy.”
