Chapter 87 Everyone's Growth Is Forced

Bella was right behind me, giving my back a few pats.

I leaned against the wall, puking my guts out until there was nothing left.

Ethan handed me a bottle of water. I took it, rinsed my mouth, and finally felt a bit human again.

I had dreamed a million times about getting back at Arthur, but I never thought it would feel this good.
