True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 93 Apologizing in Person

The phone rang forever before someone finally picked up.

Joey's cold voice came through. "Mr. Winters, what do you want?"

Sebastian tried to sound upbeat. "Nothing, just wanted to hear your voice."

Joey frowned. "Mr. Winters, is this a joke? You said you were done with me, and now you're the one calling. What do you want from me?" Her tone was icy and impatient.

Sebastian closed his eyes in pain, gripping his hair to stay conscious. "Joey, you must've been in so much pain that night, right?"

His voice was weak, each word a struggle.

Joey laughed bitterly. "Mr. Winters, you don't need to remind me. I know I'm dirty now. I get it. I won't have any more illusions about you." "Joey," Sebastian said softly, "if I went through the same pain you did that night, could you forgive me?"

Joey's reply was harsh. "No, I'll never forget what you said to me that night."

She hung up before Sebastian could respond.

Sebastian listened to the dial tone and sneered. He knew Joey wouldn't forgive him.

His heart hurt so much he coughed up blood.

The blood splattered on the white bedsheet, staining it red.

Cade, seeing his agony, tried to help. "Mr. Winters, this won't help. You've lost a lot of blood, but your situation is different. The alcohol is making the drug work worse. If something happens to you, what will Mrs. Winters do? I have medicine that can help. Do you want to try it?"

He wiped Sebastian's body with a cold towel, trying to help.

Sebastian didn't listen, writhing in pain on the bed. Aurora, standing outside, saw this and cried.

Finally, she couldn't take it and called Joey.
