She was rambling, spilling every chaotic thought as it came, but it felt incredibly liberating.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I never hated that you left me. I only hated that you didn&#8217;t love me. I was pathetic enough to think that as long as you loved me, I could forgive anything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I cried over you, I lost sleep over you. It took me so damn long just to function like a normal human being again. And right when I finally did, you came back. You hadn&#8217;t fixed anything, but you showed up to annoy me, to hound me. You didn&#8217;t bring me any salvation, just round after round of fresh pain.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lawrence&#8217;s heart was being sliced to ribbons. He took a step forward to speak, but she held up a hand to stop him. &#8220;You didn&#8217;t fall for anyone else. You were caught between family and me. You were stuck, you had your secrets, you had your reasons. But why the hell did I have to pay the price for your selfishness?!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A blazing heat erupted in her chest. She whipped around, her bloodshot eyes locking onto his devastated, heartbroken face. &#8220;You were the one who betrayed me, Lawrence! I never did a single thing wrong by you! Not one damn thing! You never deserved my love.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tears spilled from his eyes. He desperately wanted to explain, but she wasn&#8217;t finished, and she needed to get it all out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not bringing this up to settle old scores or point fingers. I&#8217;m just telling you what I went through.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She closed her eyes tightly and opened them again. Silent tears rolled down her cheeks, washing away everything in their path and drowning his heart.<\/p>\n<p>His vision blurred completely, obscuring her face.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And I believe that was the harshest punishment the law could give her, so I made my peace with it. Sitting in that courtroom, listening to the verdict with my perfectly healed ear, I genuinely felt like the world was beautiful again. The sun had finally risen, and my nightmare was over. So I mean it when I say everything I just mentioned is completely in the past.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His heart felt like it had been smashed by a sledgehammer. She had survived so much, finally clawing her way out of the darkness, and he had to ruin it by showing his face again.<\/p>\n<p>She had to be sick of him. He forced his eyes shut, a bitter tear sliding down to his lips.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, Lawrence, when you showed up in Oasinia, I genuinely thought we could be friends.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1038","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1038","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
