“Then… then give me another chance, please?
I scoffed, “Really?”
Seeing that I was skeptical, Vincent immediately began to pour out his grievances. “Yes, yes, you don’t know how painful it is. The bullet went through my body-”
“I can help you knock out Sierra, but you have to promise me, you can’t hurt her ”
“What? Are you feeling sorry for her? After what Sierra did to me, you still care about her?”
“Sierra is innocent. This time, I need you to cooperate with me in staging an act of self–sacrifice. As long as it makes Sierra change her mind, I don’t care if I have to risk my life.
The voice message was abruptly cut off.
“Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?” I asked, smiling at him.

“The only reason I behaved well was because the Ainsworth family had raised me, and I was repaying that debt. Marrying you was also out of gratitude”
“Perhaps I once had feelings for you, but the moment I learned the truth, my feelings for you died.“}
“Vincent, if you know what’s good for you, stay away from me, or I won’t hesitate to send you to prison.”
I pushed hard, kicking Vincent and his wheelchair out of the elevator.8
The moment the doors closed, I saw unwillingness and obsessive madness in his eyes.
As I stepped out of the elevator, Darwin quickly draped a coat over my shoulders. “The weather’s gotten colder these days. You need to keep warm.
I grabbed the edge of the coat and asked, “How many days has it been since you started pursuing me?”
Without hesitation, Darwin answered, “Thirty–one days, sixteen hours, and fifty two minutes.”
I was stunned by his precise answer
Darwin thought I wasn’t satisfied with his response. “Is that not enough? Should I give you a different answer?“%
